Story
We got an email back in August, 2021 asking if we could rescue a sweet dog that had been dumped in a tract near a housing complex. Despite our kennels being full, something told us we needed to make an exception for this one. So we went and got her. And boy, are we glad we did! We had no clue at the time that she was pregnant but lo and behold, her tummy started growing overnight and she gave birth to nine healthy puppies on October 18, 2021, all of whom have found the most awesome forever homes! Now it’s Mama Bristol’s turn! Bristol is the kind of dog you wish you always had. She is so loving and so friendly and so easy going. You just can’t help but fall in love with her! She can be elegant and a goof at the same time! She is funny and very energetic and ready for any adventure. She needs an active family willing to help guide her be the best version of herself. She is super smart and learns quickly. Bristol is a Pitbull, German Shepherd, Rottweiler and Husky mix (we had one of her puppies genetically tested) and is a young girl, probably less than 2 years old. She has a full life ahead of her and we cannot wait to see her flourish in her forever home! Please note: All current AND previous pets (cats and dogs) MUST be up to date on vaccines and be spayed/neutered. Please check with your landlord, if you rent, for breed and weight restrictions before applying. We do not allow visitors unless you are an approved adopter.

Winnie

Pit Bull Terrier Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, 4 yrs 7 mos
Bakersfield, CA
Size

Story
Winnie is a one year old Pit Bull Terrier mix that was surrendered to us by her owners. They were unable to care for her due to personal health issues and she grew up in the backyard, never learning how to be a family dog. The family's autistic 4 year old child spent a lot of time with her, though, and she was absolutely amazing with the child. Due to the lack of socialization, sweet Winnie is extremely shy and it takes her a long time to trust anyone. Once she gains your trust, she is the most loving and affectionate dog who only wants to cuddle. She has the sweetest temperament when she is comfortable and wants to be as close to her person as she possibly can. She loves toys and playing fetch, although, she doesn't always bring the toy back! We are diligently working on basic training like walking on leash, simple commands, etc. but everything at a pace she is comfortable with. She would do well with a person or family that can spend a lot of time with her, helping her learn how to trust and exist comfortably in the normal world. Her adopter must understand that she needs a lot of time to adjust and be willing to work with her, at her pace. If you'd like to give Winnie a chance, please fill out an adoption application here: www.luckysanimalrescue.com/adoption-app

Story
Newbie is a charming, approximately 6 year old, American Pitbull mix. He is a goofy guy with loads of energy. He loves to swim which is a great way to burn some of that awesome energy. He is good with some dogs but Trixie is his BFF. They don’t need to be adopted together but it would be pretty awesome if they were! Newbie would make a great family dog for an active, adventurous family.
