Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Jaxx is currently in a home with 6 other dogs. He does well with all of the dogs, even the chihuahua mix. He is curious about the cats, but shows no aggression towards them. He is on the smaller side and is probably about 50-55 lbs. He is not going to get much bigger than what he is now.  He loves, loves, loves to play, run and will get into the kiddy pool to cool off. He is highly treat and food motivated. Jaxx is a jumper at heart, and will definitely need a 6ft wall or taller. (He has NOT tried to jump my 6ft block wall, but he can jump from the ground up to the top of the tables out back. He will also jump the couch from the back with ease).  He would also do well in an apartment, too. He is kennel trained and fully potty trained.  He would do well with another dog to play with, or even just by himself. He has no resource guarding, no food aggression, and no toy aggression...although, he is quite vocal when it comes time to play with his house mates. He knows sit and paw, but it is hard with him as he is easily distracted by the dogs around him. He would definitely benefit from some more one on one training.  He does need leash work, but I feel he would be a great hiking/running buddy. He would definitely do better in a home with older children as he is high energy and would be prone to knocking over smaller children. He is super friendly, but a meet and greet is required if there are other animals in the home. He would definitely benefit from more one on one training as he is easily distracted. Jaxx is up-to-date on all his vaccines including rabies, neutered, and microchipped.  If you would like to meet Jaxx, you can go to our website: animalrescuefriends.org and fill out an adoption application....By doing so, you are under no obligation to adopt him. It is just part of our policy.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 7, 2025, 7:50 pm

Story
Becky and Jasper didn’t have the easiest start in life, but you’d never know it now. These two have blossomed into happy, affectionate, and goofy companions who are ready to find a forever home—together. Jasper is a big, lovable derp who will keep you laughing with his clumsy charm and giant heart. Becky is his softer sidekick, a total cuddle bug who loves to snuggle up and soak in the love. They balance each other perfectly and bring out the best in one another. They’re looking for a home where they can be the center of attention—no other pets, please—and would do best with children 10 and up. After everything they’ve been through, they deserve a family who will cherish them as much as they’ll be adored in return. If you're ready for double the love, double the loyalty, and double the joy, Becky and Jasper are ready to move in and fill your home with happiness.

Story
Bella is a stunning Great Dane mix with a heart as big as her paws! This gentle girl is an absolute dream with people—she adores attention, is wonderful with kids, and has impeccable manners thanks to her professional training with Phantom K9. Bella knows all her basic commands (sit, stay, place, down) and follows them like a pro. She walks beautifully on a leash and remains calm and non-reactive, even around other dogs. However, Bella prefers to be the only pet in the home. She thrives in a space where she doesn’t have to share her humans and can enjoy all the love to herself.

LEROY WRIGLEY – YOUR HOLIDAY HIP-HOPPING BULLDOG ELF Age: 2 years old • From: The 5 Freeway + Orange County Shelter • Status: Naughty-but-Nice and Ready for a Forever Home My Christmas Rescue Tale Ho, Ho, HOLD UP — let me tell you how I landed in the Freedom Squad. One minute I was roaming the 5 freeway (don’t ask… I have zero survival skills except wobbling fast), and the next thing you know, the shelter humans were sending out a full rescue plea because nobody could touch me. Not a single elf. I was “not adoptable,” whatever that means. Freedom Frenchie Rescue said, “Move—we got him.” They sent a whole action team to scoop my dramatic bulldog booty, get me to San Diego, and then all the way to Arizona where the real magic started. Decompression, Cookies, and Learning Humans Aren’t So Bad When I got to Mo’s house, they gave me my own cozy space to decompress, breathe, and finally learn the joy of regular meals (yes, several a day, thank you very much). They taught me what “potty outside” means, gave me soft blankets, talked to me gently, and showed me what safe love feels like. And slowly… the “don’t touch me!” Grinch in me started melting like a snowman in Phoenix. My Hip-Hoppin’ Bulldog Shuffle Do I walk? HECK YES. I walk, I wobble, and I can move faster than Santa’s elves when the cookies come out. I do have hip dysplasia—like most English Bulldogs—but mine is extra spicy. My hip sockets didn’t form right, so I strut around with my signature holiday wobble. Phantom of the Opera? No. Leroy of the Wiggle-Opera. Freedom did NEW x-rays and guess what? I still need PT in my future, plus good supplements and a healthy weight. (They DID have to put a few pounds on me… I was skinny like a candy cane.) But I’m doing amazing with the right meds and love. My Personality: A Bulldog Wrapped in Holiday Spirit Listen… I’m a bulldog. Which means I come with a whole personality package. I’m demanding — that’s my #1 talent. I’m opinionated about pretty much everything, dramatic when I don’t get my way, and honestly? I’m absolutely hilarious. But once I decide you’re my person, I’m loyal in a way only a bulldog can be.” I used to be super sketchy about being touched. I did try to bite in the beginning (just calling it like it is), and sometimes when you pick me up I’ll grumble like the Grinch waking up from a nap—but I’ve NEVER gotten anyone. It’s fear, not fury. Now? I come over and lay my big ol’ head in your lap. If you’re lucky I roll on my back for belly rubs. And if you scratch the side of my neck? I SWOON. I bend like a candy cane so you can get the whole thing. That’s premium bulldog service. I’m potty trained, I eat like a champion, and since my neuter I’ve stopped trying to “decorate” every object in the house with my leg lifts. Zero poop accidents. Gold star for me. I can be around other dogs—as long as they pretend I don’t exist. (Honestly same, buddy.) In the future, I could totally have a friend after the holidays… with time and trust. My Perfect Holiday Home I’m searching for someone who loves sweet-but-spicy bulldogs, keeps snacks on hand at all times, and understands slow trust-building with big-hearted patience. I’m all about scratches—just not on my hips for now—and I promise to bring goofy charm and wobbly joy into your world. If you want a loyal Christmas sidekick who’s been tough some stuff but is finally learning how to be happy, I’m your guy. All I Want for Christmas… Is YOU I’m Leroy Wrigley—two years old, a fighter, a lover, a wiggle-walker, and a redeemed freeway elf. I’m finally ready to spend Christmas warm, safe, and adored… maybe under your tree, maybe on your couch, but definitely in your heart. Love Wriggs! PS I am vaccinated, microchipped and neutered, currently I am being fostered in Mesa, AZ. My adoption donation fee is $1050.00 and you can check out how to adopt me at freedomfrenchierescue.org and apply for there too!
