All interested people should submit an adoption application as their first step. Meet Hamlet: The High-Energy Gentle Giant! Hamlet is a 15-month-old, purebred Old English Bulldog weighing in at 80 pounds of pure muscle and boundless energy! This sweet boy is full of youthful enthusiasm and is ready to find his forever home where he can get the exercise and attention he deserves. While his previous owner has loved him dearly, they can no longer provide the exercise he needs, which is why we're looking for an active family that can keep up with his playful spirit. Hamlet is very affectionate and loves to be around people, especially children, with whom he’s been raised. He’s a gentle giant with a heart full of love and would thrive in a home where he can play and run around to his heart’s content. Hamlet has been around another senior bulldog, but his playful, high-energy antics aren’t always well received by other dogs. Ideally, he’d do best as the only dog in the household or paired with another tolerant, playful pup who can keep up with his boundless energy. This handsome boy has completed basic obedience training and housebroken. At night, he settles down in his dog bed for a peaceful sleep. Hamlet would love a family who can offer him plenty of exercise, and a fenced yard would be a big plus for all that running and playtime he enjoys! If you’re looking for a big, sweet dog with loads of energy, Hamlet is your guy. He’s ready to bring joy, fun, and lots of love to a family who can match his enthusiasm for life! Ideal Home for Hamlet: Active family with time for play and exercise Would do best as the only dog or with a tolerant, playful companion Fenced yard a huge bonus A household where he’s loved and can continue to be his happy, energetic self!
