Story
Meet Kratos 🖤 Kratos is a gentle, lovable English Bulldog with a big head and an even bigger heart. This sweet boy thrives on routine and settles beautifully into a structured home. He’s a true “gentle giant” — sturdy and strong, yet incredibly mindful during playtime. He knows how to adjust his energy around smaller dogs and plays respectfully without overwhelming them. Kratos is kennel trained and will go right into his crate when asked. He appreciates having his own safe space and does well with consistency. Once he understands the routine, he follows it confidently. Like many bulldogs, he enjoys his calm time just as much as his playtime. He’s happiest when he knows what to expect and who his people are. https://www.pawspatrollv.org/foster-form

Story
Meet Mila AKA Dolce!  She has just joined PeiPeople in Las Vegas.  Stay tuned as we learn more about this little sweetheart!  What do we know so far? She LOVES to be scratched, enjoys walks, and people.  We do know she doesn't like her feet touched and going to the vet, but hey - who can blame her!  She is estimated to be 9 years young, but we will have our vets check her out to see how accurate this is.  At first appearances she seems to be strong and in good health.  If you are looking for a velcro dog, Mila AKA Dolce is your gal! February 22, 2026, 9:03 pm

Story
Wynter is a smart loving 12 month old. She is very well behaved, good with kids, does not bite, is house trained with a doggy door, is NOT food aggressive, eats at her own leisure, and is full of energy and love to give. I have decided to give her up because I have too much going on and I feel like I don’t have the time or energy for a dog right now at this time in my life. I have 4 kids and my husband is in the military so I am on my own for years at a time. She is a beautiful girl and so so sweet. I just know there is another family out there who can give her the attention she deserves.
