Story

Meet Doc ❤️ We adopted Doc at 7 months old from a farm where he and his littermates were badly abused. Because of his past, he is very skittish and absolutely terrified of men. He needs a patient, understanding home willing to earn his trust. Doc is a funny, active little guy who loves toys, treats, and will even do a couple tricks for an ice cube! He does amazing with other dogs, children (boys and girls), and women he doesn't know. He is potty trained, kennel trained, and dog-door trained. He loves a good movie night so he can get cozy and cuddle. His biggest challenge is his fear of being harnessed and leashed. Unfortunately, our new home doesn't have a fenced yard, making walks necessary. Getting his leash on can be difficult because he is so scared. Once it's on, though, he is ready to go—and LOVES his walks, or should we say runs! We are looking for a loving, patient home that will give Doc the time and confidence he deserves. He has so much personality once he feels safe.

Story

Bella – 3-Year-Old English Bulldog Bella is a 3-year-old English Bulldog we rescued 10 months ago. Before coming to us, she spent most of her days in a kennel or outdoor enclosure and was not house trained at all. She has come an incredibly long way! She is now potty trained, no longer kenneled, and has learned “sit,” “stay,” and “wait for it.” She is also getting much better on a leash and enjoys long walks. Bella is curious, playful, and a HUGE love bug who absolutely loves cuddling and being with her people. She is great with our cats, kids, and our Mini Aussie. We were told by her previous family that she had gotten into fights with some dogs, so introductions to new dogs should be slow and careful. Bella does have some separation anxiety and may have an accident when left alone for longer periods. Unfortunately, my work situation changed and I no longer work from home. Bella really needs a home with a steady routine, plenty of human companionship, and LOTS of love and cuddles.
