Bubba Gump

Bubba Gump is an 8-year-old, 28-pound Frenchie mix who loves to give little hugs when he's feeling especially affectionate. Once a stray, Bubba has settled beautifully in his foster home. He enjoys playing with his toys, chewing on his favorite bone, and going on leisurely walks. Treats are a big motivator for him, and he already knows "sit," "come here," and "go to your bed."

When it comes to other dogs, Bubba is curious and may pull toward them, but he typically loses interest once he walks past. In the shelter, he showed an independent streak, so while he could do well with a compatible, respectful canine friend, he may also be happiest as your one-and-only.

Bubba does have chronic skin and ear conditions common for his breed, and he'll need adopters prepared for ongoing care and associated veterinary costs.

If you're looking for a mellow, cuddly companion with adorable quirks and a loyal, loving nature, Bubba Gump is ready to wiggle into your world and brighten every day.
