Meet Blanco!

Blanco is currently fostered in LA for South Los Angeles Animal Shelter. Blanco is de-vocalized but he loves to “talk” a lot!

Hi everyone! I’m Blanco. I’m a handsome 4.5 year old male American bulldog mix, but don’t be fooled by my stocky stature and my good looks! I’m actually a big goofball on the inside. I enjoy short walks around the neighborhood and love a good belly rub! I’m a little shy at first but once I’m warmed up to you, I will be your best friend. I’m crate trained, house broken and a pro at walking on leash. If you are looking for a low maintenance and easy going companion, I am the dog for you!

I was surrendered along with my sister at the South LA shelter, but now I’m being fostered by a loving couple. They’ve welcomed me into their home along with two beautiful female pit bull mixes, whom I’ve become close friends with. Male dogs on the other hand, I can be slightly intimidated by.

I have been selected to join a 6 weeks training program with Paws for Life K9 Rescue upon my adoption.

Blanco was taken out of the shelter to be fostered during the 4Days4Life campaign over 4th of July weekend. Blanco’s foster family has a doggy that is scared of fireworks so they did not go anywhere to celebrate and instead they decided to foster for their local shelter. After they pulled him out of the shelter, they could not bring him back. Blanco was very overweight and he was only getting walked twice a week at the shelter.

Blanco gags when he drinks water and also huff & puffs for a while after a short walk. It is suspected that Blanco’s scar tissue from being devocalized might be blocking his airway. However, he is fine and just needs to go for shorter walks.

Blanco has been such a great dog to foster! He’s been great with meeting new people small dogs and female dogs. He loves belly rubs and would roll over all the time to get attention. Blanco walks great on leash and hardly pulls at all! He loves our two female pittie mixes and just wants to cuddle all the time! Please adopt Blanco!
