🐾💖 Meet Coco Lopez — The Sweet, Blossoming Bulldog Beauty! 💖🐾 Introducing Coco Lopez, a 2–3 year old, 50-pound tan-and-white bulldog mix with the kind of charm that sneaks up on you and steals your heart before you know it. From her adorable underbite to her expressive ears and slightly bushy tail, this girl is pure delight. When Coco first arrived at the shelter, she was timid — and who could blame her? But with patience, kindness, and time, she has absolutely blossomed. Now she greets the world with gentle curiosity, soft tail wags, and a growing confidence that’s beautiful to witness. 🌟 Why Coco Lopez Is Amazing: • Mellow little explorer: She walks beautifully on leash and loves taking in the sights with her calm, thoughtful energy. • Dog-friendly: Coco seems to enjoy other dogs and is open to lively, higher-energy play — meet & greets required to ensure the perfect fit! • Not a cat fan: She’s a little too interested in feline friends, so a cat-free home is best. • Smart, motivated girl: She’s very treat driven (just don’t make her wait too long!) and already knows sit and come. • A total glow-up: It’s incredible to see how far she’s come — from unsure and timid to tail-wagging, people-loving, joyful cutie. • Unique looks: Those amazing ears, that precious underbite, and her fluffy tail? She’s a stunner with personality to match. Coco Lopez is gentle, sweet, and ready for a home that will continue helping her shine.

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Bruno is a 4yo male American Bully who is kid friendly but does not mesh well with other dogs. He's irritated easily by other male dogs specifically, but does well with female dogs. This is likely due to lack of interaction with other dogs as he has limited to no contact with other animals. He's very spoiled, affectionate, loves to cuddle, jump and eat. He loves to follow you around and literally go where you go. He loves car rides and chew toys. Bruno is trainable and knows some simple commands, I've tried training in the past but was way too costly. Bruno is fixed and up to date on all shots/records (records of service can be provided). He does not fancy visits and absolutely hate having his nails clipped!! I'm looking to rehome because I honestly cannot give him the attention he needs. I would love for him to go to a great home with family who can introduce him to the things I have failed to do so (daily walks, dog parks, exposure to other animals, etc).

Story
Meet Short Stack – The Adorable Low-Rider with a Big Heart Short Stack is a squatty, lovable bully mix, about 2 years old, with a personality that’s larger than life. Don’t let his short stature fool you — this compact guy is bursting with energy, charm, and affection that’s guaranteed to make you smile. Playful and curious, Short Stack is full of love and a little bit of mischief (the fun kind). He’s treat-motivated, already knows “sit,” and is a great candidate for learning more with someone willing to keep working on basic manners and enrichment. Short Stack would thrive in an active home where he can get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. He’s happy to get out for walks or zoom around the yard, then settle in for snuggles once he’s had a chance to burn off some energy. While he can be around other animals, Short Stack would really prefer to be your one and only at home so he doesn’t have to share his favorite people. He’s looking for a family who will enjoy his goofy antics, give him structure, and let him be the center of attention. If you’re looking for a sweet, funny, and loyal companion, Short Stack is ready to steal your heart. He’s been overlooked for far too long and is more than ready for his chance. To learn more or apply to adopt Short Stack, please email adoptpetersburg@gmail.com with “Short Stack” in the subject line.

Story
Meet Clara – A Sweet “Squatty” Bully Looking for Her Second Chance Clara is a roughly 2–3-year-old, 53 lb gray-and-white bully mix with a big heart tucked inside her compact, “squatty” frame. She first came to us as a stray on 9/22 after roaming the area for several weeks. Though unclaimed, it was clear she had once been cared for — she arrived in good condition and had previously had a litter. Clara was recently adopted but has been returned, through no fault of her own. In her temporary home, she showed her family so much love and proved what a good girl she is. She is housebroken and crate trained, making her transition into a new home much easier. Shelter life can be overwhelming for Clara, and she may seem a little shy or shut down in her kennel. But once she’s away from the noise, she completely lights up. Clara rides calmly in the car, walks beautifully on leash, interacts well with other dogs, and will sit politely for treats. She loves her outings, but the hardest part is bringing her back — her tail tucks when she re-enters the shelter, a clear reminder of how much she longs for a home of her own. Clara is young, resilient, and full of love. She’s ready for a stable, patient family who will give her the consistency and kindness she’s been missing. If you’re looking for a loyal, gentle companion with the sweetest “squatty” smile, Clara would love to meet you. Email adoptpetersburg@gmail.com to set up a meet-and-greet.

Story
We adopted Sasha in June. The process was rushed and we made a quick decision. Sasha is a great mix of fun, spunky and chill couch potato. She adores our senior golden retriever and is more afraid of our cats than they are of her. Sasha and my 10yo (f) are best buddies. Why we need to rehome: Sasha's protective nature is causing her to react negatively to young kids and other hyper dogs. We no longer feel she's safe to be around our 6yo or the neighbor's dog. She's come a LONG way in a few months. I don't think she knew life inside before we got her. She loves toys, is very smart with the hidden treat toys, a strong chewer, and never gets aggressive with sibling dog over toys.

Story
🐾 **Meet Crystal! 🌟** **Age:** 2-3 years **Weight:** 55 pounds **Color:** Beautiful brown with a striking black muzzle Crystal has been waiting for her forever home for a whole year at the shelter, and it's time for this sweet girl to find the love she deserves! This gentle soul truly shines once she trusts you. She enjoys her time running on the treadmill, especially when she's go-digging for fun! Crystal recently discovered the joy of bath time, standing perfectly still and soaking up all the love and attention. While she can be a bit alert around strangers and needs some work on her leash walking (she gets a little jumpy when returning to the shelter), we're confident that with patience and love, she'll flourish. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will reward your kindness with unconditional love, Crystal is waiting to meet you! Let’s help her find her forever home. 🏡❤️ **Interested in adopting Crystal?** Contact us today to learn more about her and set up a meet-and-greet!
