About Handsome

Meet Handsome, an energetic 1.5-year-old American Bully weighing around 70 pounds. With his gorgeous amber eyes and big personality, he truly stands out. Handsome is a Velcro dog who loves being close to his people. He has a special bond with his teenager, often cuddling up at night. His interests include hiking, fetch, car rides, and he's even partial to playing with a flirt pole. This playful guy takes treats gently, knows when he needs to go outside, and will bring his empty food or water bowl to you. Handsome gets along well with other dogs but prefers to assert his play style, which might overwhelm some furry friends. He's not the best fit for homes with cats or small animals since he takes his squirrel harassment duties very seriously. Crate-trained and nearly house trained, he still has a little work to do on his manners. While he loves to jump and dance when excited, he also enjoys exploring the house, including sampling the occasional shoe or counter snack. Despite his mischievous side, Handsome's sweet and adventurous nature will brighten any home. With continued training and plenty of exercise, he is sure to be a wonderful companion for years to come.
