Story
Hi there, I'm Dottie, your future best friend! I'm a sweet, friendly and smart 4-year-old American Bulldog mix, recently rescued from an overcrowded California shelter. I have one blue eye and one brown eye and am quite a beauty! I love to play, and my loyalty knows no bounds. I might seem a little dejected, but that's only because I'm longing for a forever home, and my shelter experience was exhausting. I promise to make your life brighter with my loving nature. So far I have been fine around other dogs. I'm currently looking for a foster or forever home, and I weigh about 55-60 lbs. Please email for an application.

Story
Breed: American Bully DOB: 10/2021 Gender: male Altered: yes Coat: medium Size: large Color(s): red / white Description: Hi, I'm Enzo (Someone must like Ferrari .), an American Bully who is in need of a new home as my owners think I need a bigger place and a family member coming to visit cannot be around me due to an eye infection. Although I'm good with children, I'm still a puppy so children in the home must be 6 years or older. I'm good with other dogs, but it's unknown how I'd do with a cat, but they do think I would chase a cat to play. I know basic commands and walk well on leash. I love to cuddle and be around people, but I can be fearful of strangers and I may bark at them. I don't enjoy being left home alone so I'll need someone who will rarely leave me alone or I can come along too. If you're interested in meeting me, please fill out an online application.May 1, 2024, 6:21 pm

Story
Breed: American Bulldog / American Staffordshire Terrier DOB: 2/8/2020 Gender: male Altered: yes Coat: medium Size: large Color(s): black / white Description:Hi, I'm Hank, an outgoing American Bulldog / American Staffordshire Terrier who is in need of a new home as the other dog in the home no longer cares for me being there too.I'm a couch potato during the day. I enjoy bully sticks, walks and laying in your lap. I need to be told 'sit' and 'stay' before opening a door. I make short work of toys so toys are not recommended. I will chew shoes too and sometimes paper. I live with a cat that I mostly ignore. I need time to get to know other dogs, but once I do I enjoy playing with them. I guard my toys and my home so anyone who comes to the house I need to meet them outside every time before they come in. I would do best in an adult only home with no other dogs, but may be ok with children 10 years and up if they know how properly interact with dogs.If you're interested in meeting me, please fill out an online application.May 1, 2024, 6:21 pm

Story
Meet Daisy, the playful and social 7-year-old Boxer mix who's sure to put a smile on your face! Daisy is a happy-go-lucky girl who loves nothing more than playing with her buddies and cuddling up with her human friends. She's got a good amount of energy and would do best with an active family who can give her daily activities like a short walk or playtime with her toys. Daisy is also a social butterfly who gets along well with dogs and people of all ages. She's always up for making new friends and is great at adapting to new environments. Daisy is a smart girl who already knows some basic commands like "sit" and "down," and she's eager to learn more. She would do well living with other playful dogs, or as an only dog who had some occasional play buddies. While Daisy is a fun-loving dog, she does have some special needs. She's currently on a special diet due to some digestive issues, and she needs a family who can help her maintain her healthy habits. If you're looking for a playful, social, and fun-loving dog who will keep you on your toes, Daisy might be the perfect fit for you! Contact us today to schedule a meet!

Story
We`re excited to introduce you to Gypsy, our two-year-old female Boxer mix. Gypsy is a gentle soul with a heart of gold, and we`re eager to help her find her forever home.Gypsy may appear a bit reserved at first, as she can be slow to warm up. However, once she feels comfortable and secure, she blossoms into an affectionate and loyal companion. She thrives on building trust and forming strong bonds with her human friends.While Gypsy prefers the company of people, she`s still adjusting to interactions with other dogs. Due to her uncertainty around other canines, she would likely thrive as the sole pet in her new home. With time and patience, she may become more confident in social settings, but for now, she`s happiest when she`s the center of attention.One of Gypsy`s favorite activities is going on walks with her people. She`s currently learning leash manners and is eager to explore the world around her. Daily walks not only provide her with physical exercise but also offer valuable bonding opportunities with her adopters.We believe that Gypsy has so much love to give and is just waiting for the right family to come along. If you or anyone you know is interested in welcoming this sweet and shy Boxer mix into their home, please don`t hesitate to reach out.Let`s help Gypsy find the loving home she deserves!
