Featured Adopt-a-Bull: Jenkins

"Can't a boy like me catch a break?"

For our first featured Adopt-a-Bull, we are highlighting Jenkins! This handsome fella just can't catch a break lately - at least three separate people have been set to foster or adopt him, but every single offer has fallen through, through no fault of his own.

Jenkins was rescued from a high-kill animal control facility on the date he was scheduled to be euthanized.  With his black coat and (then) scarred body, he was a dead dog walking until we stepped up to help him.

I had the pleasure of having an "overnighter" with Jenkins when I visited the president of Dont Bully My Breed, Catherine, who is currently fostering him.  I don't understand why this lovable, well-behaved guy hasn't found his forever home yet!  He is a true "ready made" dog.  He is already crate trained, housebroken, and non-destructive. He is also very dog friendly (although he likes to chase small critters, so homes with cats are a no-go).

Jenks is 2 1/2 years old, and we think a Boxer/Lab mix.  He really doesn't have any features of an American Pit Bull Terrier (in temperament or looks), but to the general population, would likely be considered a "pit bull".

The ideal home for Jenkins: A family with older kids (we haven't evaluated him with little kids yet), and maybe a well-behaved female who doesn't mind "throwing down" and playing once in a while.  He isn't overly energetic, but would love going for daily strolls through the neighborhood.

Jenkins is looking for a foster or forever home. The adoption/fostering process is highlighted on our website, here.  Interested?  Contact us at dontbullymybreed@aol.com.
