About

Meet Kato

Animal Profile: Kato is an estimated 5-year-old, 78 lb neutered male American Bully who looks tough but is really just a big baby. This handsome hunky boy is neutral with other dogs, not leash reactive, has lived with cats and "doesn't pay them any mind" and does well with people and older kids. He is generally well behaved and has some rudimentary training like sit and low down. He can get scared of loud noises and doesn't like having his paws handled, but he did really well for his first nail trim despite being scared and overwhelmed. He is house trained and doesn't exhibit separation anxiety; he hasn't had any exposure to crate training yet, but his foster family is going to start working on it. Kato does have some food sensitivities that can lead to occasional skin flare ups (we think he's allergic to beef) and these can be exacerbated living with a toddler who drops all sorts of food everywhere. We are looking forward to placing Kato in a forever home where he can have a patient and loving person or people to enjoy his company.   Adopter Profile: Large breed experience preferred Single family residence preferred Secure fenced yard preferred Kids 12 or over OK Dogs OK not required Cats OK Adoption Info: Kato's adoption fee is $450.

Apply online: www.doggoneseattle.org/adoption-application Animal History: Kato was surrendered to Dog Gone Seattle due to incompatible living environment; his current caretakers took him in from a family member who lost his home and current caretakers have a 16 month old who doesn't respect boundaries, which makes Kato very uncomfortable. Kato has been crawled on, fallen on, etc. and has NO BITE HISTORY but would be much more comfortable and happier in a home without small children. He is currently being cared for in Lynnwood and available for adoption in the greater Seattle area.
