Possibly looking for a home for my American Bulldog

I have come to the hard decision that I am going to have to find a new home for my beloved american bulldog. As much as I love her, it really isnt fair to her right now because between me working all day, and Kyra working all night she is basically by herself all day long in her room. In addition, with the way finances are right now, I cannot afford to keep her, so unfortunately I am going to have to do what is right and find a good home for her. She is about 4 years old, and has gone through advanced training. However, I havent been pushing it lately so she could use a refresher. She has also been AKC Canine good citizen certified, but I no longer have the paperwork for it (lost during the move). She is pretty good about not going in the house as long as she is let outside frequently... but she is not 100% as of right now. She is a very motivated learner, and is one of the fastest learning dogs I have ever seen. She also has a very high metabolism rate, so there will be times that she may appear to be very thin (you can see her ribs) and malnurished, but I assure you that I have taken her to the vet numerous times during these "thin" phases and she has been given a 100% bill of health. I am not charging anything because I just want to make sure she is going to a good home, and I have some contingencies (cant spell). Basically I will require a contract signed saying that if she is ever to be "readopted" that I must be contacted first. The biggest thing is that I see her as my own child, and I cannot ever take the chance of her going to a bad home. In addition, if a doggysitter is ever needed, and I am available I will be more than willing to help out so I can see her again.
I know it is an odd request, but the last thing I want is for her to go to a bad home, or to have her somewhere where I will never be able to see her again. Like I said, she is basically my kid, but I just cannot keep her right now.... its not fair to her.
If you are interested...even after everything I have said above, please let me know either on here, or by email. I would rather it be someone I know first hand, but as long as it is a good home, I will be happy.
Thanks

Kenny
