Welcome to the Neighborhood Elvis (the dad) and little Godscilla, the daughter, to San Pedro!

Elvis, an American bull dog, rescued from Watts by her new owner, Lisa Marie, allowed the dog to have one baby, but doesn’t want him to have any more – despite the rarity of the breed, she said.

Fearing that he would be used as a fighting dog, Lisa Marie said she was given a tip to rescue him and eventually the owners agreed to give him to her. Due to her rescue background, she prefers Elvis not sire any more babies, but she couldn't resist allowing him to have one baby girl, 12-week-old Godscilla.
“These dogs are total athletes,” the owner said. “They were used during World War II to protect soldiers and their property.”
The trio just moved here from Hermosa Beach, where it was too crowded, Lisa Marie said.
They’ve been walking daily – so keep your dog senses keen so you can spot the charming duo.
