Dog, Bullmastiff
Bullmastiff (Short Coat)
Description:
Bonded Pair- Sponsored Adoption and Free TrainingDuke and Duchess spent the last year with Barktown recovering from malnourishment and heartworms. They both weigh over 100 lbs now, heartworm free and ready for their forever home! Duke is a sweet boy that doesn't know his size! He is working on manners, but needs someone who can physically handle him, and no small children due to his exuberance and size! We haven't really tested him with other dogs but he seems okay with at least female dogs. We can always work on introductions at meet and greets. Definitely no dogs under 40 lbs. Duke can also be an escape artist and a climber, so be mindful of that. Duke needs love, patience, guidance and training to be the best boy we know he can be. He is VERY lovable! Duchess is large and in charge and needs a family that has experience with big dogs. She needs a home without small children or animals under 40 lbs. Duke and Duchess comes with FREE training with Rosie Dane dog training, thanks to the Pedigree foundation. If you would like to make Duchess a part of the family, fill out an application at www.barktownrescue.org/adopt DUKE HAS A SPONSORED ADOPTION! DUCHESS WILL HAVE A FREE ADOPTION TO THE RIGHT APPLICANT THAT IS IN A POSITION TO ADOPT The shelter software system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of our dogs we are only guessing at the dog's predominant breed or breed mix. We strongly encourage you to select your new pet by looking at each dog's individual personality and pet qualities rather than relying on a breed label that is only our best guess. Our adoption fees vary from $150 and up. All of our dogs are up to date on vaccines, heart worm preventives, and flea/tick medication, and will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption. Portions of your adoption fee also help care for the sick and injured animals that we take in. Thank you for supporting us and considering a rescue dog!
