Junior is a 2.5 bull terrier and blue healer mix. Junior was adopted from Kent County Animal shelter and lived in a house with his dog brother Ollie and two young kids. Junior is a happy dog, but is not socialized. He needs a backyard environment and the apartment solution if his family is a giant stress trigger for him. Junior does not like 100s of dogs around and people running everywhere’s. He needs a calm home with kids. His most favorite person in the world was his 5 year old owner.
