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!December 2, 2024, 4:26 pm

Story
Meet Cosmo – Your New Best Friend with a Built-in Alarm System! Looking for a housemate who's handsome, loyal, and always down for a cuddle (or a zoomie)? Cosmo is a compact sized bundle of love, bark, and personality, looking for his forever home! Cosmo is the perfect house dog — just the right size to fit comfortably into your life, with a bark big enough to make delivery drivers think twice. He's got that beefy presence that says "security system," but don’t worry — with people, he's a total softie. With the spirit of a pup and medium energy levels, Cosmo is fun, just the right mix of playful and chill.” A morning trot and an evening zoomie (bonus points if there’s a fenced yard!) are enough to keep him happy. After that? He’s all about the snuggles and his well-deserved beauty sleep. He’d love to be your one-and-only pet and does best with older kids who get that being this cute is serious business. Cosmo might just be your perfect match. Come meet him — and bring snacks. He’s very food-motivated (but who isn’t?). Adopters have 30 days of free access to 1-on-1 text and email support from trainers at Petcademy to help make every pet's transition into their new home as smooth as possible. All dogs available for adoption have been spayed/neutered, microchipped and are current on all vaccinations. Please email dogs@henricohumane.org for more information.

Story
🐾💖 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. With love and stability, she’s sure to become the loyal, affectionate companion of your dreams. 🏡 Coco Lopez is available now through Hopewell Animal Services — come meet this wonderful girl and let her brighten your day! Will you be the one to give Coco her next beautiful chapter? 💛🐾

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
This dog, we believe, belonged to a neighbor of ours who just disappeared one day and never came back. The dog showed up at our doorstep and my wife felt the need to try to take care of him as he was emaciated. We have tried but are moving and can’t take him with us. He does not bite, bark but licks though. He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body and is pretty old so lays around a lot.
