WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
Hi, my name is Bilby!
ARE YOU A BOY OR A GIRL?
I’m a boy!
HOW OLD ARE YOU?
I’m approximately two years old as of August 2024.
WHAT BREED ARE YOU?
I’m a little bully mix.
HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH?
I’m 33 pounds of handsomeness!
WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE?
I have a tan/light brown coat and white chest. My back looks like there is a little brindle pattern close to my rump. My head is so cutely round that my foster mom nicknamed me “Meatball.”
WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO EAT?
I like to eat anything my human gives me – peanut butter, blueberries, kibble, you name it and I’ll probably like it.
WHAT KIND OF PERSONALITY DO YOU HAVE?
I’m an easy-going, sweet boy who loves to be close to my human. I don’t have separation anxiety, I just like being around people and other dogs when I can.
DESCRIBE YOUR PERFECT DAY:
My perfect day is waking up and immediately going outside to walk around and potty. I then come inside for a yummy breakfast and mid-morning nap. I get to go on a walk at lunch time and play in the yard before another nap after having a yummy treat. When my human is done with work, I like to play with my stuffed animal and end up snuggling with my human on the couch until dinner. I also love taking rides in the car, it’s so fun (especially with a pup cup involved)!
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TOY?
I like playing with Benebones/chews and stuffed animals.
DO YOU KNOW ANY TRICKS?
I’m working on my sit, stay, and leash etiquette – just the basics!
WHAT SCARES YOU?
I’m a brave boy and not much scares me!
HAVE YOU BEEN AROUND CHILDREN?
I have not been around children, but seem to get along with just about anyone/everyone.
DO YOU LIKE CATS?
I have not been around cats.
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT OTHER DOGS?
I love other dogs! I don’t mind them trying to play with me, and I also leave them alone when I want quiet.
IF YOU COULD BE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD IT BE?
I would be curled up on the couch getting belly rubs from my human.
HOW IS YOUR HEALTH?
Aside from a limp due to a previous injury to my front left leg, I’m a healthy guy!
WHO DO YOU LIVE WITH IN YOUR FOSTER HOME AND WHO IS YOUR CLOSEST COMPANION?
I live with my foster mom and my three foster (dog) siblings – I love all of them but especially my puppy friend Jasper who likes to play with me.
WHERE DO YOU HANG OUT WHEN YOU ARE HOME ALONE?
I curl up with a cozy blanket in my crate while I’m home alone.
WHERE DO YOU SLEEP?
I sleep in my crate.
DO YOU LIKE WALKING ON A LEASH?
I do like walking short distances on my leash and am a very polite gentleman!
DO YOU HAVE ANY “NOT SO GREAT” HABITS THAT WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?
Meal time is my FAVORITE time, which makes me urgently barrel through the door to my crate so I’m learning patience. I also like to howl at meal time, which is more funny than a bad habit, according to my foster mom.
ARE YOU HOUSE TRAINED (DO YOU GO POTTY OUTSIDE)?
I am fully house trained – no accidents and I’m excellent in my crate when I need to be napping!
DO YOU LIKE WATER?
I’m not the biggest fan of water but I’m not scared of it. I am alright with being in a bathtub, but I am definitely not built for water activities, so please keep me safe around pools or large bodies of water.
WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR FOSTER FAMILY?
I love having a routine and having foster siblings to cuddle with. My mom works from home, so I am able to be around humans and dogs. They love me, take care of me, and keep me safe. I especially love when my foster mom gives me treats!
WHAT WAS YOUR LIFE LIKE BEFORE BEING BROUGHT INTO NORCAL BULLY BREED RESCUE?
I’m not sure what my life was like before, but I know I was in the shelter after being hit by a car. NorCal Bully Breed Rescue saved me and now I am ready to find my forever home! I would love to meet you so you can fall in love with me and we can cuddle and play forever!
