Story
I had received my dog from a family member who had to go under surgery and was unable to take care of him. He is one of the loveliest dogs ever. He is a very friendly dog, he loves to meet new people and other pets. He is one of a kind, he was the best of friend I had ever and one of the best dog for my first time. I am busy with work and family members getting older and a young toddler being at home. He will love you with all his heart and will wholeheartedly appreciate whatever he gets. He is funny too. I hope I can find him a home where he can receive a lot of love.

Story
" Meet Maizee — the Shy Sweetheart With a Melting Marshmallow Heart! Maizee may start off a little shy, but don’t let that fool you — she warms up faster than a biscuit in a southern kitchen. Give her a moment (and maybe a gentle smile), and she’ll be leaning in for love before you know it. This tender girl adores belly rubs, and once she decides you’re safe, she becomes a cuddly little shadow who’s more than happy to curl up beside you and soak up all the affection she can get. She daydreams about having a family of her own — someone to nap with, someone to follow around, someone whose lap she can claim forever. Maizee is also working on her leash skills, and she’s getting the hang of it! Every day she gains confidence, taking brave little steps toward being the best walking buddy she can be. If you’re looking for a gentle soul with a blossoming personality and a whole lot of love to give, Maizee is ready to be your girl. 🌼🐶💛" https://www.vermontenglishbulldogrescue.com/non-bulldog-application/

Story
Meet Madison — the Snuggle Queen! If you’ve been searching for a dog who’s equal parts sweetheart, shadow, and snuggle buddy… congratulations, you’ve found her! Madison is the ultimate velcro pup — stickier than a toddler with a lollipop and twice as adorable. This lovely girl adores attention, melts for belly rubs, and believes snuggle time is all the time. She does great with other dogs and, after politely greeting the cats, decided they weren’t worth the drama. (Honestly? Relatable.) Madison is also learning to walk on a leash — and doing a fabulous job! She’s quickly figuring out that leashes lead to adventures, smells, and more chances for pets from her humans. She’s ready to follow her person everywhere — couch? yes. kitchen? absolutely. bathroom? …she’s still working on boundaries. If you’re looking for a devoted companion with a heart made of marshmallow fluff, Madison is your girl! Madison is 2 years old and 51 pounds. https://www.vermontenglishbulldogrescue.com/non-bulldog-application/

Story
Opi is one year old. He came to us from a private home that could no longer care for him. He is treat and toy motivated and human affection driven. He loves to be babied. He can be a little shy when meeting new people. He doesn't seem to like loud noises. He is low to medium energy and potty trained. He was recently neutered and seems interested in having doggie friends that are submissive. He is looking for a family with bulldog experience and if there are children he would like them to be older so they are less rambunctious. https://www.vermontenglishbulldogrescue.com/bulldog.../
