Story
Carti is a 2-year-old, 50-pound bundle of muscle, curiosity, and love. This beautiful girl is new to the shelter, and we are still getting to know her, but she has already made a wonderful first impression. Carti has a sturdy, athletic build and an engaging personality to match. She is naturally curious about the world around her and enjoys exploring, taking in new sights, and staying connected with her surroundings. At the same time, she has an affectionate side that makes her just as happy to slow down and cuddle up with her person. She enjoys being close, soaking up attention, and forming strong bonds with the people she trusts. Carti is the kind of dog who brings both fun and companionship into a home. She has a great balance of playful energy and affection, making her a wonderful partner for someone looking for an interactive, loving dog. With her strength and enthusiasm, Carti will benefit from continued structure and guidance to help her be her very best. She is smart, engaged, and ready to learn. As we continue to learn more about Carti, we are excited to see her personality unfold even more.

Story
Hi! I'm Cappuccino! I was found on the city streets in Northside of Richmond, Virginia. I was taken in by a kind soul who has gotten me healthy and given me confidence over the last few months. My forever home preferably has a yard because I'm fun and energetic! I'm loyal and know basic commands but I need someone with the ability to get me properly trained in other areas. I love attention, belly rubs and food! Always know I'll do anything for a good treat! I'm desperately looking to get out of the city and into a home of a dog lover that has the time and space to take care of me properly! I was neutered and received all the required shots. I also got my DNA tested. Turns out I'm 50% German Shepherd, 25% American Bulldog and 25% American Bully! I come with toys, harness, and all paperwork from vaccinations. I'm a very good boy and I'm excited to find my forever home!

Story
Hello I have had Benji since he was only a few weeks old. He is a sweetheart and is very good with kids. He is turning 6 this September and unfortunately I am unable to keep him due to housing. I am facing eviction if I don’t rehome and even with this warning I have still kept him until I can find a safe home for him. The shelters make us so hard to surrender your dog and I am all out of options. Thank you.

Story
Attention all Bulldog lovers! This adorable Bulldog named Sweet Tart is in search of her forever home. She may be a bit bossy, but she's also housebroken and crate trained (although she's not a fan of the crate), she is also great for baths and getting her nails trimmed. One thing is she absolutely adores is food - she can't get enough of it! However, she would do best in a home without small children, and if there are other furry friends, she'll need to be fed separately. While she may not fully grasp the concept of playing with other dogs, she loves to snuggle up to them. Sweet Tart is known around the house for her slobbery kisses and will gladly climb onto your lap with her bulky body. With her stubborn and delightfully demanding bulldog personality, she's not afraid to bark and demand her meals when she thinks they're overdue. Her tongue is always hanging out, adding to her irresistibly cute appearance, especially when combined with her adorable underbite. And if that's not enough, she also comes with the bonus of mystery allergies-thanks to some Benadryl it is easily controlled. This sweet old gal has come a long way, and we're thrilled to see her find the loving home she deserves after all this time. If you are interested in adopting Sweet Tart, please fill out an application today!March 9, 2026, 11:02 pm

Story
Meet Frida - our chunky bulldog queen with a big personality and an independent streak! Frida may play it cool when meeting new people, but don’t let her aloof first impression fool you - give this independent lady a little time, and she warms up beautifully. She enjoys doing her own thing, exploring at her own pace, and soaking up attention in a home where she can be the star of the show. Frida would prefer to be your one and only pup, and she’s a perfect match for someone who appreciates a laid-back, self-sufficient companion. Soft, chewy treats are definitely a plus… just not too many for this delightfully chunky girl. Animal Aces Kid Spotlight! Our Animal Aces Kids Club members became junior reporters and interviewed our animal care team to help some of our adoptable animals shine! These spotlights are kid-created with big hearts, curious minds, and plenty of personality.Written by Piper and Roxie, Animal Aces Kids Club members:`Hello, my name is Frida and I`m a white gray bulldog mix. I`m very calm and enjoy soft chewy treats. I came in as a stray so I might be shy, but I`ll work on it. I love spending time with males. I`m very chunky so don`t give me too many treats. I enjoy doing my own thing and I love to explore at my own pace. I`m a great match for a home. I was found on the street and was really scared. I am five years old and I want to be adopted. I need extra time to get to know you.`
