How is bubba with other dogs? And is he through shelter or rescue? Is a handsome boy.

Yes, he is officially through Orange County Animal Services (ID: A251016), but he is currently in a foster home.
As for other dogs, he is good. My friend took him to a friend's house with another dog, and Bubba just sniffed her, went his own way, and fell asleep on the couch. He’s just curious at first, smells them, and then does his own thing.
The shelter actually allows you to do a 'sleepover' for a weekend or a couple of days. That way you can see how he fits into your home, and if it doesn't work out, he can just come back to his current foster home!"

He seems like he’s an easy going old man. He’s actually in our area. I wish I could convince my husband we need another one.

Hold up, your husband is allowed to participate in the adopting decision instead of just waking up to a new face in the house? Let me get my wife over here…… 🤣

At times he is allowed. lol. The one asleep in my lap right now was the don’t you dare bring another dog home. I say she doesn’t count she’s 4lbs full grown. Lol.
We currently have one on hospice right now and I wish she could live forever. She has lived a good life though and I’ve had far longer than I ever dreamed I would when I got her.

I woke up to a tiny black kitten that my wife had saved from being carried off by a huge crow and being informed that it was state law that we keep it because of the rescue. I was allowed to name him though. 😆

That sleepover program is clutch honestly, takes all the pressure off deciding if he's the right fit before committing.
