Meet Helium (a.k.a. Meathead, a.k.a. Grandpa): 63 lbs of bulldog charm, 9 years young, and ready to spend his golden years in style. This Old English Bulldog is basically a retired heavyweight champ — now he just wants naps, snacks, and someone to rub his back while he snores like a freight train. What Helium Brings to the Table: Love bug status: Cuddles and back scratches are his favorite pastime. Chill vibes only: Easy-going, confident, laid-back, and officially unbothered by drama. Dog-friendly: Gets along fine with other pups, as long as they respect his personal space (no trampoline impersonators, please). Cool customer: Literally — he overheats easily, so his forever person must keep the AC pumping and walks short and sweet. Crate pro: He’s got crate life mastered. Gentleman-in-training: Currently working on perfecting his “no indoor marking” etiquette. Helium’s Hobbies: Super slow strolls when the weather’s cool Being doted on like the king he is Lounging like a seasoned pro Collecting nicknames (Meathead, Grandpa… probably a few more once you meet him) Backstory: This big guy landed in the shelter after being abandoned in an apartment (rude!). But he’s bounced back like a champ — now he’s thriving in foster care and ready for a family who’ll treat him the way he deserves. Bottom line: Helium is the ultimate couch buddy. He’s not asking for marathons or mountains — just a cool, comfy home, some belly rubs, and a human (or two) who think underbites are smiles of the best kind. Adopt Helium. Because every Grandpa deserves a retirement full of love, snacks, and naps.
