Story
It will only take a few minutes for you to agree that Lalo Dixon is just the bestest boy. This sweet boy is currently 22 lbs, almost 4 months old, and we think he may be a Bulldog/Pit Bull Terrier mix, but with rescue it’s always a guess! What matters most is that they are adorable and are one the MOST desperate in the entire US based on statistics for where this puppy is from. Shelters in this area are having to euthanize puppies. So, this puppy needs you! If you choose a puppy from this rescue, it saves his/her life as well as the life of another in its place. Lalo Dixon is such a friendly, gentle boy. He was rescued with his sister (Lala Dixie) and was her protector when on the streets. Despite his rough start, he treats everyone as a friend and doesn’t seem to have the stranger danger that is normal at this age. Lalo is cautiously inquisitive to his surroundings and wants to explore everything! He will come running right back to you tho, because he is entirely convinced that he is a lapdog whose sole job is deliver kisses and snuggles. The first thing you will notice about Lalo is his super soft shiny black coat and distinctive white markings –such a distinguished gentleman. He has adorable white socks (feet) with one white sleeve, and a gorgeous white chest. And of course you can’t help but notice the cutest white patch on his nose! His eyes are vibrant and soulful – this puppy will capture your heart right away with his expressions and personality. Lalo is still young so he will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. His new family will need to continue with potty and crate training and daily exercise. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy. When old enough, he will be perfect to go on walks and hikes or show off around your neighborhood. You will be guaranteed to get lots of kisses in return from your new best friend!

Story
Lala Dixie is ready to snuggle her way into your heart! She is uber-friendly and can't wait to make friends with everyone she meets. Lala is playful, sweet, and cuddly – she is actively seeking anyone who likes to snuggle, since it’s her favorite thing to do. She loves to play with her brother (Lalo Dixon) and take lots of naps – classic puppy life. Lala is already showing how smart she is, by doing a perfect sit for treats. She sleeps quietly in her crate all through the night, and is making great progress on her potty training. Puzzle feeders are one of her favorite activities and helps stimulate that developing brain. Playing tug-of-war is also one of her favorite games. Lala and her brother were rescued together, and Lala has a sweet and calm personality that we believe comes from being under her brother’s protection while surviving on their own. The first thing you will notice about Lala is her beautiful shiny black coat that is irresistibly silky soft – you can’t help but pet her! Her markings are striking - we love her white socks (feet) and white chest. She’s got a little white tuft on her chin too – you get a closeup of this every time she comes in for kisses, which this pup loves to give. Lala’s sweet soulful eyes will hook you and you are sure to be rewarded with all her love and affection if you are lucky enough to be her special person. Lala’s personality is cautiously quiet and calm, but she warms up quickly to any attention – she loves to explore just as much as she loves to be snuggled right in your lap. Lala would fit right into a family with other dogs or cats (see her video for the briefest of cat tests), but she would also be perfectly happy to be the star of the show. Lala is currently 21 lbs, 4.5 months old, and we think she may be a Bulldog/Pit Terrier mix, but with rescue it’s always a guess! What matters most is that they are adorable and are one the MOST desperate in the entire US based on statistics for where this puppy is from. Shelters in this area are having to euthanize puppies.

Adoption Fee - $75 Spots is a very handsome Saint Bernard American Bulldog mix that weighs about 80 pounds! He is probably around 6 years old. He absolutely loves people and loves to get attention and belly rubs! He will sit with his head in your lap getting all the head scratches for hours if you let him. He is a goofball and is sure to make you laugh and smile everyday. Spots is a super friendly and outgoing dog. He is good with people that are aged 14 and over! He loves toys, and he also loves to play in water. He is the kind of dog that would love to play in the sprinklers and have his own little pool he can play in. He really loves to play with balls, he will chase them all day. Spots would do best in a home that has a backyard for him to run around in. He has calmed down a good bit as be has gotten older and although still loves to run around the backyard, he is also figuring out that he really likes to just chill sometimes too! Spots is now showing that he can do well with some dogs, that are his size or larger. Spots will need to go to a home that has a strong handler and have owned large dogs before. So far, he has learned place, sit, stay, and lay down. Overall, spots is an amazing dog that is waiting for his forever home. He is very loyal and very friendly with other people. He also is very protective of his home and loves to keep patrol of his yard! He loves toys and water and would make the perfect travel buddy! Please consider spots to be your new forever fur baby! He needs a foster too if you can't commit to adoption! Spots is refreshing his training skills and is back in board and train!

Story
Born on July 4th, 2019, our American Bulldog, a bundle of joy, joined us at 12 weeks. She's a survivor, overcoming a toy-induced surgery at 15 weeks and being spayed at 20. Known for her warmth, she loves cuddles and is a playful spirit, cherishing her toys and mastered potty training. She’s food-enthusiastic and occasionally fixates on a ball. She loves her cozy space. Ideal for her is a spacious home, preferably with a yard, and she’s great with other dogs. Not fond of leash walks, she thrives in her home environment. She’s a perfect companion, embodying love and happiness, ready to enrich a loving home.

Story
Meet Ford, a remarkable Bulldog whose presence is as powerful and steadfast as a mighty river. Just like the characteristics of his breed, Ford embodies kindness and courage, showcasing a unique blend of friendliness and dignity. Now you may not see it by looking into his gorgeous brown eyes, but Ford has suffered in his short life.... he came to the rescue from the streets with a HORRIFIC hernia on his back end, near his rectum. He required two surgeries to correct the hernia and allow him to have a normal life again. He came through with SHINING colors ;) With his well-muscled frame and low-slung stature, Ford is the epitome of a true bruiser, but it's his iconic "sourmug" face that represents his unwavering courage and tenacity. Despite his robust appearance, Ford is a docile and loyal companion, adapting seamlessly to any environment, be it the bustling city or the serene countryside. With Ford by your side, you'll experience the unwavering devotion and unmistakable presence of a Bulldog, a breed that leaves an indelible mark on your heart. Don't miss the opportunity to welcome this incredible Bulldog into your life, as Ford's unique spirit will bring joy, love, and an unmistakable charm that only he can deliver. Some basic information about Ford; he is male, a Bulldog mix, and is medium-sized (20-59lbs). Ford is not great with other dogs (or cats or other critters) and would be best in a home with either only adults or older children and as a single dog. But his heart will fill your home with all the love you need!!!

Meet Gayle, a 2-year-old female American Bulldog mix with a stunning apricot and white bicolor coat. Gayle is a high-energy pup who loves spending time with people. She's incredibly friendly and cuddly, always eager to share affection. While Gayle enjoys the company of people, she can be selective with other dogs and might need a patient and experienced owner who can help her navigate her interactions. She's a bit anxious and defensive around other dogs, but with slow exposure and gentle guidance, she has the potential to adjust and become more comfortable over time. We suggest a single dog home for Gayle. If you're an experienced dog owner looking for a loving and energetic companion, Gayle could be the perfect addition to your family. With a little time and patience, she's sure to become a loyal and devoted friend. Come meet Gayle and see if you can be the one to provide her with a forever home filled with love and understanding.

Put a slice of Meatloaf between two slices of bread with more ketchup and you are feasting again for lunch! Anyway, enuff about food.. I am seriously getting hungry!

I AM HAPPY!!! I am pretty good with other dogs, I can share... if I have to!! I am kind of a couch potato, if you are into napping I am down with that. I can hike and do active stuff too, if you are into that. But just like after eating a big meatloaf sandwich, the best thing to do is to take a nap :) So look me up, here are my stats- I am lovely, and a solid 72#.

It's a pleasure to meet you, my name is Walter! I like to greet people the old fashioned way, a tip of the nose, a meeting of the eyes, and a formal introduction of who I am. I've always kind of been an old-soul, at least that's what people tell me, with my wrinkled fur and gentle eyes. As an older gentleman I tend to have a bit more patience than these young whippersnapper pups. You'll find me waddling around quite slowly but my tail still wagging none the less! I have been known to snap when nervous, but I have come so far and I just need a little time and patience. Cause I just so want to be your big goofy friend! I have a soft and squishy face to go along with my squishy personality! I am great with my people and great with other dogs too. I am shy at the very first but am on the fast track to love! As a senior dog there's really only one thing I care about ... TREATS ... just kidding, it's being close to others. Being close to others helps remind me that I am here and my story is still being written with infinite possibilities. Perhaps you and I could write the next chapter together?

🐾 Meet Laika! 🐾 Introducing Laika, the happiest, bounciest girl who instantly rolls over for belly rubs from anyone she meets. With her gentle and submissive nature, Laika is a joy to be around. She particularly loves playing with male dogs and truly enjoys their company! Watch her adoption video here! At about 60 pounds and estimated to be around three years old, Laika might be a boxer-pit mix, though we can't be sure. What's undeniable is her ever-wagging tail and her infectious enthusiasm for life. Laika welcomes everyone like long-lost friends, eager to share her love and get some affection. Not just friendly with people, Laika has also shown excellent manners with other pets. She's fantastic with cats—she remains cheerful and playful even when swatted a few times. When introduced to dogs, her energy knows no bounds, thriving in the company of those who match her rough and playful style. Currently fostered in Texas, Laika spends her days joyfully romping around the backyard with her four-legged foster siblings. She often gets vocal during play to show just how much fun she's having. She's intuitive with other dogs' behaviors and respectful of boundaries, making her a well-balanced playmate. Laika's cuddle sessions are just as legendary as her playtime. She's known to worm her way next to you on the couch, quickly turning into "Licka Laika" with generous kisses. If you're looking for a pup as affectionate as she is playful, Laika is the perfect match. She's also a hit with children, offering gentle kisses and showing an incredible softness around them. Though her excitement can sometimes lead to jumping, she quickly calms down with a gentle reminder. Laika would thrive in a home that matches her energy and affection. She would love a canine companion to play with and would benefit from continued training, especially on the leash, where her curiosity and strength can be a handful. Whether you have a house with a yard or a spacious apartment, if you're active and can provide the interaction she craves, Laika will fit right in. Ready to add a dose of joy to your life with a dog who's all about love and fun?

He is the perfect fun size, not too big and not too small. He is exceptionally dog friendly and loves to make doggy friends. He is best friends with an 80 lb male that is just as goofy as he is and they love playing together. He also met a massive cane corse who is triple he size and he wasn't intimated by him or anything. All he wanted to do was play with him and Xander even took a correction from the big guy for playing too rough and did beautiful with the correction. Xander would love to be adopted out to a family that has another dog that he can play with and romp around in the back yard with. He also would do best in a home with a backyard. He loves to be outside, rolling around in the grass and just living his good ole doggy best life. Xander is medium energy that will require exercise and mental stimulation. He's not a marathon runner nor will he require that much exercise but a good romp in the yard, short run in the neighborhood, and I'm sure would also make a great adventure companion in the mountains. He will need to polish his leash skill and learn some basic obedience manners but he is treat motivated and eager to please. Which will help make any additional training that much more enjoyable. To our knowledge, he is crate trained and potty trained but may need a reminder about where the appropriate potty places are once in his forever home. We are willing to test Xander Lane with anything you need us to in order to ensure it’s the perfect match for you! We can make anything happen! Just let us know.
