Special Foster Home Needed For Sergeant

Sarge is a delightful 2yo boy who is getting into fights with the resident intact lab male. He is great with his family's 2yo daughter and 7yo son. He peacefully co-exists with his family's indoor cats but has dispatched a feral one that jumped into his outdoor pen. Sarge is very affectionate and is a world-class cuddler!

Sarge needs a foster home by March 3rd. We are seeking a bull breed savvy (or one familiar with dog-aggression) permanent/foster home that could help nurse him through his neuter and foster him until a suitable home is found. Since he doesn't play well with most dogs, we would not be able to house him at our boarding kennel. Sarge is about 45 pounds; he is house and crate trained.

If you can help us help Sarge, please contact Suz at suz@bullyhaven.org or at 415/672-7391
















3/1: Sarge passed his evaluation with flying colors yesterday. We found a very charming, people-oriented and curious guy who's very amenable to corrections once he knows you're in charge - basically a normal BT with testosterone issues. He tried to stir up a little trouble with an intact Bull Terrier male but was distracted both times and moved on to exploring the room instead. He acknowleged a spayed female pit bull mix by wagging his tail at her. Sarge apparently still plays well with a neutered chocolate Lab so we really think his incidents are testosterone related. He'll be neutered and will do a few weeks' quasi-bootcamp time (thanks, Melinda!!!). Sarge will need obedience and leash training; and he'll thrive in a structured environment.
