Story
Location: Pataskala, OH Food: Purina One Hydrolyzed Protein Medication: NexGard Plus monthly Meet Aialik 🐾 Aialik is looking for the right home through Badass Bulldog Rescue — and when I say the right home, I mean someone who understands what it means to take on a special dog and continue the work that’s already been put in. She’s deaf, but that hasn’t slowed her down one bit. She’s been fully trained on and off leash using clear hand signals and e-collar communication. She understands structure, expectations, and how to exist calmly in a home. And personality-wise? She’s sweet, goofy, and absolutely loves people. She’s the kind of dog that will make you laugh daily and want to be right by your side. That said — let’s be clear about who she is so she lands in the right situation: High prey drive → Cats may be possible, but only if they’re calm and the owner is experienced and intentional Only dog home → This is non-negotiable for her long-term success Dog interactions → She is a bite risk if allowed to freely interact with unfamiliar dogs, especially high-energy or unruly ones She does live around my dogs, but that’s the result of a lot of structured, intentional training. That’s not something I expect the average home to replicate casually. Here’s what makes this different from a typical adoption: Aialik will come with 6 coaching sessions with me (fully covered by the rescue). That’s not optional fluff — it’s a critical part of her transition. Whoever adopts her needs to be serious about continuing her training and maintaining structure. That’s what gives her stability, clarity, and ultimately the best quality of life. Who is she perfect for? Someone who wants a loyal, well-trained companion Someone who appreciates structure, communication, and clear expectations Someone who is either experienced with bully breeds or willing to learn and follow through If that sounds like you, reach out to Badass Bulldog Rescue and let’s make sure Aialik ends up exactly where she belongs. This isn’t a “feel good, take her home and see what happens” situation. This is a do it right, and you’ll have an incredible dog situation. ***Adoption Process*** -All current pets in the home need to be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines and on veterinarian prescribed flea/tick/heart worm prevention. -Everyone living in the home, including all resident dogs, must be present at the meet and greet located in the Southwest Ohio area. -We DO NOT ship dogs!!!

Story
Midnight is 8 years old. We adopted him from a shelter at 4 months old. We are unsure of his breed but believe he may be a newfoundland/retriever mix. Midnight is very loveable, playfully and full of energy. He is house trained, comes when called for and knows how to sit. He also can give paw.He loves treats, mostly peanut butter and cheese. He loves to roam around the backyard and play. He loves teddy bears, toys and bones. Looking for a loving home for him. We are rehoming him due to not being able to give him much attention and time he deserves.

Story
Location: Dayton, OH Food: Wholesome Sensitive Skin and Stomach Salmon Protein Medication: NexGard Plus 📚🐾 HUCKLEBERRY FINN IS READY FOR HIS NEXT BIG ADVENTURE! 🐾📚 Like Mark Twain’s famous Huck Finn, our Finn is a boy who was born to explore! 🌳 He loves discovering the world around him, making friends, and getting into a little bit of everything. But if you ask him, the only thing better than an adventure is PLAYTIME with his buddies! 🐶💨 Well… that and his beloved little donut bed. 🤣🍩 A guy needs his beauty sleep between adventures, after all! ❤️ A LITTLE ABOUT FINN: 🐾 Fully potty trained AND crate trained! 🐾 Loves playing with other dogs and making new friends. 🐾 Enjoys cuddles almost as much as he enjoys exploring. 🐾 Walks on a leash, although he’d much rather be following his nose and seeing what adventures lie around the next corner! 🐾 Professional donut-bed enthusiast. 🍩🏆 💪 FINN’S NEXT CHAPTER: THE FOUR-LEGGED ADVENTURE! Finn had hip surgery in early September to correct a congenital defect. His leg has fully healed, and he can use all four legs! The only problem? This little adventurer got so good at getting around on three legs that sometimes he forgets he has a perfectly good fourth one! 😂 Now he needs a family willing to help him continue building those good habits and remembering to use both back legs equally. Simple activities, like walking up stairs (as appropriate for his recovery plan) and encouraging him to jump up for a yummy treat, can help remind his brain that four legs are even better than three! Finn can do it. He just needs a little encouragement, consistency, and someone cheering him on as he figures it all out. ❤️ 🏡 WHAT IS FINN LOOKING FOR? A family ready for a playful, curious, affectionate little sidekick! Someone who will share adventures with him, let him romp with his canine friends, enjoy some snuggle time, and keep helping him strengthen those four-legged skills. Finn doesn’t need a perfect family. He needs his family. One that sees the happy, goofy, adventurous boy he is today and is excited to help him keep growing. And, of course, any prospective family should understand that his physical therapy isn’t quite finished. 😉 ✨ If you’re ready for a little adventure, a lot of laughs, and a lifetime of love, Finn might just be your Huck Finn! 📩 Ready to make Finn part of your family? Send in an adoption application and give this boy his happily-ever-after! ❤️🐾 ***Adoption Process*** -All current pets in the home need to be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines and on veterinarian prescribed flea/tick/heart worm prevention. -Everyone living in the home, including all resident dogs, must be present at the meet and greet located in the Southwest Ohio area. -We DO NOT ship dogs!!!

Story
My pet name is dash , he’s 4years old had him since he was 2 months , he’s a clingy dog and love belly rubs. He has all his shots besides an updated vaccine. I recommend a backyard with a fence so he can run around. I currently live in my parents basement and we have no room he’s locked up all day in cage crying and I can’t do anything about it because my family doesn’t let him roam the house with them there. I need a loving family to take him in please

Story
Location: Dayton, OH Food: Pork and Peas Medication: NexGard Plus 💕 HEY EVERYBODY! REMEMBER ME?! 💕 It’s me, GIGI! 👑 Queen of Snacks, Cuddles, and Side-Eye! And guess what? I’m getting closer to finding my forever family! 🥰 I’m a 5-year-old English Bulldog with a whole lot of love to give and a personality that will keep you smiling. My favorite things? Being with my people, going for car rides, getting ALL the attention, and, of course, SNACKS! Seriously, if you have food, we’re probably going to be best friends. 😂 Now, my story has had a few bumps along the way. I had surgery to repair my left hip, but unfortunately, I ended up with a paralyzed leg and a condition called drop foot. But do you think that stopped me? HECK NO! With range-of-motion exercises, massages, icing, and lots of physical therapy, I’ve worked SO hard to get where I am today! I’m now in my second round of therapy, and guess what? I GET TO SWIM! 🏊‍♀️ That’s my JAM! I even swam seven laps in one session! Okay, so my foster mom had to run around the pool teasing me with toys, but a girl has to have some motivation, right?! 😂 I’m making progress, and continued physical therapy gives me the best chance at improving my mobility. I do have some lingering drop foot that affects my paw and toes, so I’m getting a special boot to help protect them when I walk. My care team is working hard to keep me comfortable and help me be the very best version of myself. So, what am I looking for? ❤️ A forever family who sees ME—not just my medical challenges. Someone willing to continue my physical therapy, celebrate my victories, and put in the work to help this girl SPARKLE! ✨ I promise to repay you with endless snuggles, unconditional love, hilarious side-eye, and a lifetime of being your very best friend. When I’m not busy being a therapy superstar, you can find me curled up on the couch, keeping an eye on the neighborhood through the window, or supervising my people. I'm a little nosy. It's part of my charm! 😉 I'm so grateful for all the prayers, love, and positive thoughts that have helped me along this journey. Now, I'm ready for my next chapter: MY FOREVER HOME! 🏡💗 And between us? My foster mom might have a few feelings about me leaving, but I think it's time for me to find the family I've been working so hard for! Could you be the one to help me sparkle? ✨🐾 ***Adoption Process*** -All current pets in the home need to be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines and on veterinarian prescribed flea/tick/heart worm prevention. -Everyone living in the home, including all resident dogs, must be present at the meet and greet located in the Southwest Ohio area. -We DO NOT ship dogs!!!

Story
Location: Springfield, OH Food: Chewy Venison and Sweet Potato Medication: NexGard Plus 🐾💙 MEET GRIFFEY: SMALL LEGS, BIG PERSONALITY, AND A WHOLE LOT OF HEART! 💙🐾 If you’re looking for a perfectly behaved, graceful little gentleman… well, keep scrolling. 🤣 But if you’re looking for 28 pounds of pure love, mischief, determination, and absolute CHAOS, then Griffey might just be your guy! 🥹💙 Griffey is a 10-month-old exotic bulldog puppy who came into our rescue with little to no use of his back right leg. But what this little guy lacks in mobility, he makes up for in HEART. ❤️ Over the last few months, Griffey has worked his little booty off in physical therapy, and we are SO proud of how far he’s come! Is his mobility perfect? Nope. Will it ever be perfect? Probably not. Does Griffey care? ABSOLUTELY NOT. 🤣 In Griffey’s mind, he’s just like every other puppy… and he fully intends to act like it! This boy is the sweetest, orneriest little troublemaker you’ll ever meet. He loves nibbling on toes, causing a little (okay, a LOT) of chaos, and making sure there is never a dull moment in the house. And other dogs?! HE LOVES THEM! 🐶 Just know his preferred play style is less gentle puppy playdate and more WWE SMACKDOWN. 💥🤣 Despite his physical challenges, Griffey gets himself where he needs to go around the house. He may do things a little differently, but he certainly doesn’t let that stop him! He would LOVE a family who takes him on adventures in his very own stroller, lets him experience the world, and doesn’t mind giving him a little lift up and down the stairs. Thankfully, at just 28 pounds, he’s a pretty manageable little passenger! 🛒💙 Now, here’s the important part. ❤️ Griffey doesn’t need someone who feels sorry for him. He needs someone who BELIEVES in him. Someone who sees everything he CAN do instead of focusing on what he can’t. Griffey currently attends physical therapy once a week, and we would love to find a family committed to continuing his therapy, keeping up with his exercises at home, and giving him every opportunity to live the happiest, fullest life possible. He doesn’t need a perfect body to have a perfect life. He just needs his perfect person. 🥹 Someone who will celebrate his progress, laugh at his ridiculous antics, carry him when he needs a little help, and love him exactly as he is. Because underneath all that bulldog sass and those squishy cheeks is one incredibly special little boy who has worked SO hard for his second chance. And we think it’s about time he gets his happily ever after. 💙 🐾 So… who’s ready for a lifetime of toe nibbles, stroller adventures, WWE wrestling matches, and unconditional love? Griffey is ready. Are you? 🥹💙 📩 Apply to adopt Griffey and give this little fighter the forever home he deserves! 🐾 ***Adoption Process*** -All current pets in the home need to be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines and on veterinarian prescribed flea/tick/heart worm prevention. -Everyone living in the home, including all resident dogs, must be present at the meet and greet located in the Southwest Ohio area. -We DO NOT ship dogs!!!
