🐾 Meet Pablo 🐾

Pablo is a 6-year-old desexed male Bulldog x Shar Pei searching for his forever home.
This handsome boy is full of personality — he loves attention, sunbathing, and hanging out with his people. Pablo is an outgoing fella who enjoys company but is also quite happy doing his own thing.

He gets along well with other dogs when introduced properly, but he is not suitable for homes with cats, chickens, or sheep. Pablo is VERY food driven, so someone experienced with bull breed dogs who understands structure and boundaries would be ideal.

Pablo is looking for a home that:

✔ Has previous bull breed experience
✔ Has a fully fenced property
✔ Will allow him to sleep inside
✔ Wants a loyal companion and best mate

He is microchipped, desexed, and will be council registered once he finds his new family.

If you think Pablo could be the perfect addition to your home, make contact today to arrange a time to come and meet him ❤️
