About Reuben
Reuben could live with children 16+. He could live with another dog but no cats or small animals.
Reuben is big lad with a big heart and a big personality. He seems to have little idea of his size and therefore plays like a small pup.
Reuben is fun and full-on and can be boisterous and silly, but means no harm – he is just full to the brim of love and playfulness.
Reuben can be vocal when he sees another dog, but once up close has shown great manners.
Reuben would love to find a home with a family who have experience of boisterous bully breeds and love their ‘bull in a china shop’ approach to life.
Reuben is a strong boy so will need a family confident they can manage him.
We have no doubt Reuben will bring nothing but love and laughs to the right home who appreciate his silly ways! The team here at the shelter are already big Reuben fans!
Medical
Reuben has been treated for eye and ear infections whilst in our care. These will now be classed as ‘pre-existing conditions’ therefore unlikely covered by future insurance policies for such issues.
