My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Meet Gordo!

 Gordo is a sweet and lovable French Bulldog who is ready to finally find the forever family he has always deserved. This charming little guy truly loves everyone he meets—people of all ages, other dogs, and even cats! His gentle personality and happy spirit make him an instant favorite wherever he goes.

 Gordo’s life hasn’t always been easy. He originally came from a breeder situation and was then passed between families who, unfortunately, were unable to provide the care he needed. Through no fault of his own, Gordo eventually found his way to Pet Rescue By Judy, where he’s now getting the love, stability, and patience he’s been missing.

 Because of his past, Gordo is still learning about the world and how to be a cherished family pet. He is not fully housebroken yet and will need a patient, understanding family willing to continue his training and help him thrive. With consistency and kindness, this smart little guy will continue to make great progress.

 Gordo is playful and fun and absolutely adores his toys. He enjoys playing fetch with a ball and loves interacting with cats as well. Despite his rough start, his heart is full of love, and he’s eager to give it to the right family.

 Ideal Home for Gordo

 We are looking for a person or family who has experience with French Bulldogs or other brachycephalic (short-nosed) breeds. These special dogs have unique needs, and Gordo’s future family should understand how to keep him healthy, safe, and comfortable.

 Important Care Considerations for French Bulldogs

 Gordo’s adopter should be familiar with:

  •  Heat sensitivity – French Bulldogs can overheat easily and should avoid excessive heat and strenuous exercise, especially in warm weather
  • Breathing awareness – Monitoring for labored breathing, snorting, or respiratory distress
  • Proper weight management – Keeping him at a healthy weight to reduce strain on his joints and airway
  • Moderate exercise needs – Short, controlled walks and playtime rather than long or intense activity
  • Skin and wrinkle care – Regular cleaning of facial folds to prevent irritation or infection
  • Routine veterinary care – Including monitoring for common Frenchie health concerns

Go meet their pets

Although many of our pets are cared for at our facility in Sanford, many others are in private foster homes. To arrange a meet, it is best to first complete an online adoption application so that we can set up a meeting. You can access complete information on our pets plus the adoption application on our website, www.petrescuebyjudy.com. Meets and Adoptions are held at our Sanford Adoption Center.

More about this rescue

We are a private, non-profit rescue located in Sanford, Florida, dedicated to the rescue cats and dogs. Many of them come to us with medical needs. They are doctored to the best of our ability and resources.

Our most urgent goal is to rescue animals that are abandoned or in distress, update their vaccines, and find good new homes for them. But we attempt to be more proactive than that. It is our heartfelt desire to prevent any animal from the need to be "rescued." With that vision in mind, we take a three-prong approach through the education of pet owners and the general public about:
- proper care of animals, including correct diet of good quality food, fresh clean water, daily exercise, and lots of love
- spaying and neutering companion animals (dogs and cats) in order to prevent euthanasia and over-population
- low-cost spay/neuter clinics and wellness centers in their local community
