Story
Gertie came to us from the shelter back where she had been adopted and then returned at no fault of her own. The last several months have been a roller coaster for her and she is so deserving of a stable home that will love her forever. She is 7 years old and is as sweet as can be. She likes short walks to sniff around and enjoy the sunshine. She loves to cuddle, give you her paw, and likes belly rubs. She loves treats and will do anything for them! Gertie is very easy-going. Gertie was kenneled with other dogs at the shelter but will need to be tested with any potential housemates. She recently had TECA surgery on right hear so she will have limited hearing in that ear. She is otherwise in good health and ready to go. She has not been tested with cats and should live with children 10+ due to unknown history. Please consider giving this sweet girl and home of her very own.

Story
Candy is a energetic, loving girl that loves to play! She's great a fetch and loves toys. She came into rescue from the shelter with very prominent cherry eyes that have since been fixed. Her left eye is a little cloudy from not being cared for properly in the past but she takes her eye drops like a very good girl. She loves to give you her paw and loves belly rubs. She is also very smart and trainable. She can't wait to snuggle up on the couch with you! She has done well with other dogs but can play rough so a tolerant dog would be best. She has not been around children or cats.

English Bulldog

Male, 6 yrs 3 mos
Santa Ana, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats,
Story
Bruce is a good looking bulldog that acts much younger than the '6 year old guess' that the animal shelter made about his age. He's a easy going bulldog and very compact. He gets along well with other dogs and learning to get better on a leash. He is a 'humper' and nibbles on toes' - these are bad habits, and we are working on training him to not do this and new adopters will have to be diligent on following up.
