My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

We are daily filled with shock and awe at the capacity for cruelty that humans have and the strength of spirit of our dogs, as well as their capacity to love. We'll spare you the broken record story that WAS Dovie's life.You can check her story out HERE. What matters now is that Dovie's now is filled with love, yummy snackos, scritches, and ALL the A/C.She has all the soft spots to rest, and she has nothing but love for everyone she meets. Her EPIC foster mama thinks her IDEAL home would match the following Dovie criteria: A single-family home with no stairs. She's totally fine if they work away from home. She's pretty chill and self-reliant. Cats are okay (she has had no reaction to them). She 100% needs someone who can keep up with her grooming daily (ideally an experienced bull family member or someone 100% willing to learn and stay in touch with our team for check-ups and check-ins). She's excellent at taking small, short walks (in her buggy, she says walking is for humans!). Dovie is fighting fit and showing us a little more of the silly, delicious girl she really is every day. She has truly blossomed into the sweetest soul. Every day her gentle, affectionate personality shines brighter - she's a loyal shadow and a total cuddle bug when it's time to unwind. She truly is Bulldog perfection. We cannot wait to see her settled with her perfect family (and, we are ALL going to be so, so jealous of them!).

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

Submit an adoption application via our website. Candidates can apply for a specific dog or submit a general application.

2.

Interview

Go through our interview process, including a virtual home check.

3.

Approve Application

If applicants are approved, they will be notified by our team via email. They may or may not get a match, at this step.

4.

Applicants must go to the foster's home to meet their match in person and are encouraged to bring their dog(s) and kid(s), if applicable.

5.

Adopters must pick up their dog in person and get them home safely. Sorry, ABR cannot ship dogs.

Additional adoption info

Austin Bulldog Rescue is 100% foster-based, and does not have a shelter or facility where applicants can come meet dogs before applying. Meet and greets with a potential match will happen after an adoption application is approved. ABR is a matching rescue -- while our teams take dog preference into account, we ultimately match families to the dog best suited for their home and lifestyle. The more thoroughly you answer the interview questions, the better the matching experience on all sides!
