When Lisa Reilly first saw a picture of ‘Meatball’ aka Meaty online, she got this feeling that he was ‘the one’. In an online essay, Reilly recalls:

 

“My senior bully had passed away 3 months prior and I had the exact same feeling when I adopted him at 10 years old, so I knew this dog was meant to be his predecessor.”

 

Meaty was adopted from Fresno Bully Rescue and lives happily with Lisa, her fiance, Punky and Ricardo (two other rescued pit bulls) and dachshunds Bitty and Dappe.

The smiling canine has been melting hearts and making friends online, amassing an amazing 46,000+ followers on Instagram. For more Meaty goodness follow @loveabulllisa
