Adopt Ty

Male · Adult · 4 years

Ty could be a wonderful companion if you’re looking for a loyal, characterful dog who will keep you smiling with his playful antics. He would need to be the only pet in the home, as he cannot live with other dogs, cats, or small animals. His moderate energy levels mean he enjoys daily exercise and enrichment without being overly demanding, but he does need an outlet for his enthusiasm and strength. Ty’s affectionate side really shines once he’s settled, and with the right structure and understanding, he’ll form a strong bond with his new family. If you have experience with bull breeds and are happy to embrace a dog who can be a bit silly and full-on at times, Ty could be a fantastic addition to your home. Home requirements: Ty is a 4-year-9-month-old bull breed with a friendly nature and a big, bouncy personality. He’s excitable when meeting new people and can get a little “pingy” and over-the-top when he’s feeling playful, so he’s looking for an owner who understands bully breed traits and can provide calm, consistent guidance. Ty would thrive in an active but relatively calm home with older teenagers who are confident around boisterous dogs. He enjoys his walks and can happily stroll alongside other dogs, but he prefers to keep his distance and isn’t keen on dogs getting in his face. A home with a secure outdoor space would be ideal, as he loves to mooch around and play tug and raggy games. While he has been left alone for periods in the past, this will need to be built up gradually again, as he’s grown more attached to people and enjoys their company. Available at Basildon (Essex), Wickford
