Story
Meet Lovebug, a stunning 3-year-old American Bulldog mix whose name perfectly reflects her sweet and affectionate nature. Rescued from a local New Jersey shelter, Lovebug is a joyful soul who adores everyone she meets. She has a zest for life that’s as big as her heart, and her playful energy is bound to bring a smile to your face. Lovebug is good on leash and enjoys quiet, short walks where she can take in her surroundings at a gentle pace. She would absolutely love a fenced yard where she can romp and play to her heart’s content. She takes treats gently, is eager to please, and thrives on human connection. A home with older kids is preferred due to her playful nature and her tendency to think she’s a lap dog! Lovebug does have a medical condition that requires special care. Despite two surgeries to address her challenges, she sometimes struggles with breathing and regurgitation when she gets overexcited. She’s currently on a low level of medication that helps keep her calm, and this works successfully about 90% of the time. Because of this, she needs a peaceful home with minimal commotion to help her stay relaxed and comfortable. She would do best as the only pet in the household, where she can soak up all the love and attention. Lovebug is ready to find a dedicated and patient family who will give her the calm, nurturing environment she needs to thrive. One interaction with this amazing girl, and you’ll see why her name is Lovebug. She’s ready to fill your life with endless love and loyalty—are you ready to be her forever family? If you are interested in Lovebug, please go to bfdaaa.com to complete an application. September 14, 2025, 8:24 am

Story
Chance is quite literally a dream dog. He is a chill 12 year old American Bulldog - housebroken, perfect on a leash, barely barks, is good with children, all humans, and other dogs. 18 months ago, I rescued him from a shelter. Caring for a new baby in the family and increased work travel has forced me to spend more time away from home than ever before. Chance deserves an owner who can give him the time and attention he deserves.

Story
Midnight is a male bully who is around 5-6 years old. He is crate trained, loves walks, and enjoys hanging out with people whom he trusts. He can be very independent and wants hugs and pets on his terms. We don’t blame him because he’s had a rough start to life. Midnight was used solely for breeding purposes and had very little to no human attention or affection before we rescued him. He is selective with dogs but has begun opening up when paired with the correct energy. We prefer he is adopted as a solo-pet to a mature single or couple.
