From the minute Kassandra Haro saw the white and brown speckled puppy, she knew he would be perfect for the job.
When she approached the litter of nine Olde English Bulldogges, the puppy immediately ran up to her. He wasn’t afraid of being handled by a stranger, nor picked up and cuddled. He didn’t mind loud noises and always had energy to play.
