Story
Meet Serafina. This chunky potato, came to us via the Solano County Sheriff's office. having been found in pretty bad shape. Blind in one eye and in need of emergency pyometra surgery, as well as double entropion surgery, this brawny little powerhouse is recovering well in our farmhouse. Sarafina is seeking a Bulldog familiar home, where she can be the top dog. While she has some doggy friends here, she really does want to be the center of your universe and not share any of the pats and treats aka 'the good life'. She will actively seek you out for company, but does very well alone, sleeping peacefully, while snoring loudly, patiently awaiting your return. If you are looking for an actual couch potato, we believe we have your girl, so be quick and complete an adoption application so that Sarafina can relax, and be cared for by a family of her own.

Story
Buckley has been with me for the past 3 years, but I am being evicted and no longer have the space or money to give him the life he deserves. He is a healthy, happy, super sweet, gentle, loving dog who loves attention and long hugs. He is very playful and matches the energy of who he is with. If you are excited, he is excited. If you are calm, he is calm. He can be a bit of a jumper when he is excited, but I believe with time and care, he can easily be a perfect dog, he is still fairly young and follows commands with ease. I just want him to have a better life than I am able to give him, he deserves someone who can spend time with him and give him the attention and love that he needs.

Story
Marabelle is a gentle, sweet English Bulldog who we transferred from a kill shelter in Central Valley. She had suffered neglect and came to us with a serious ear infection as well as other medical concerns. Due to the severity of her ear infections, and after extensive vet care, Marabelle is now completely deaf. She has been in a wonderful foster home the past several months and has received lots of TLC. But she is now ready for her furever home! Marabelle is extremely gentle and loving, and an easy dog to be with. She gets along great with children and other dogs. Marabelle will be a wonderful companion for her new family. If interested in meeting Marabelle, please submit an application to Jellysplace.org. Applicants with bulldog experience will be prioritized.

Story
Adopted at 3 years old, in 2021, from a County Animal Shelter after being found abandoned behind a Walmart. When first adopted everything in the world appeared to be new to Uatu and did not know how to walk on a leash. On his first walk, he believed the fire hydrant was a live creature and low growled with slow approach to investigate. Loud noises were new to him and cars driving by seemed to be a new experience. Currently he is able to go on walks on leash and prefers small parks but does fine with around the home walks. Has strong sensory abilities and walks to smell everything. He has never damaged any property or belongings. Video monitoring shows him sleeping all day while no one is home. When you are home with him, he follows you around and just wants to lay up against you as you read, work on computer, or watch television. Once in a while gets into a wrestling mood or chews on toys. Had some issues when first adopted but awesome dog once his routine was established.

Story
All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, shots current (DHPP, Bordetella and Rabies where applicable), dewormed, flea and tick treated, and microchipped.  * If you are interested in a dog, please first read the biography on the dog (keep scrolling down for the bio!) and then go to our website, www.dpsrescue.com for an application. Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.This dog will be at a meet and greet event on Saturday, March 23rd unless he/she is adopted prior to the event with a set up home. The event is from 12 pm to 3 pm at Palo Alto's Pet Food Express. Those interested in meeting the dog can come out to our meet and greet event. We no longer do application approval onsite. Anyone adopting has been previously approved and set up to meet prior to the event. Adoption Fee: $1000   Pork Chop is a 4 year old English BullDog who is handsome enough to want to take a bite out of! Pork Chop was surrendered to the shelter with a bad case of kennel cough, which we treated with loads of love (and medicine). This handsome boy deserved better than a life in a kennel, so we scooped him out of there and promised him nothing but kisses and treats ahead. Pork Chop has been living his best life ever since and is now ready to find his forever people!    Pork Chop is very much your typical EBD, which means lovers of the breed have found their new Prince Charming! Pork Chop is a fabulous blend of snorts, snuggles, toy chasing, couch potato, all packaged in a stout body! Pork Chop is a total ham and knows how to make himself the life of any party! He is happy to chase after a toy, but sometimes decides halfway to the toy that he can’t be bothered to bring it back. Pork Chop is sassy in the way bully lovers will recognize. He knows that he is handsome and that he can strut his stuff for endless scratches and treats. Pork Chop is described as “exuberantly friendly” by all who meet him, which will make him the jewel of the dog park and beer garden. Pork Chop also loves to accessorize and will happily model for any dogstagram content. Truly, this dude is a total package who will have all the ladies fawning over him.  Pork Chop starts his morning at 8 AM with a morning potty and play session before he gets breakfast. Between 9-1, he alternates between couches for long nap sessions, snoring the morning away happily. In the afternoon, Pork Chop gets a walk which his wriggly body is so happy to embark on. Once he gets home, he spends some time playing with his toys and finding a lap to try and scramble into. He has dinner at 5 PM and then unwinds on the couch watching some TV before he heads to bed.  Pork Chop gets along with other dogs when he has a proper introduction to them. He is very large and in charge, so his new home will need to be prepared to continue his behavior training. Pork Chop has dry eye and will need eye drops daily in his new home, but besides that has no other bulldog medical conditions.  Pork Chop is working on his potty training and leash skills.    Pork Chop is only an option for those with prior dog ownership experience. We will be prioritizing those homes with prior Bully experience. Kids in the home should be over the age of 10.  March 25, 2024, 11:42 pm

Story
Chunk is a 2 year old English Bulldog, who came to us as an owner surrender. Chunk absolutely adores humans, but he's definitely a man's best friend. He just finished a 4 week board & train with Wolf Mother K9 to work through his trauma. Chunk is a bit of special boy, he's very dog neutrally and friendly, he gets along great with them and could live with them. However, when he does live with another dog, it makes him lose trust in humans and causes him to bite when he's afraid, though he never does this in a home without other dogs. So, a home where he can be the only dog would be best or in a home with 1 other mellow dog. He loves to play, very food motivated and enjoys walks! He gets triggered by loud noises, quick movements and will bark when he wants cuddles. Chunk is a very healthy English Bulldog and doesn't even have most of their allergies or skin concerns that typically accompany the breed. Without dogs, he is absolutely perfect, cuddly, affectionate, and calm. He'll follow you around the house and try to be a lap dog whenever he can! Chunk is being fostered in Fairfield, CA. If you would like to meet Chunk, please fill out our adoption application on our website www.cabullyrescue.org/adopt.

Hi! I am Cheesecake, well...simply because i look like one. LOL. I am dog friendly but have had a hard time trusting new people. I am working on this and my confidence and am doing my best! I was saved from Merced Shelter right around Thanksgiving. I am 57lbs and still trying to loose a little weight, but with all the walking i do, i am sure i will lose a few pounds shortly! I am good with other dogs but need some time to warm up to new people, they scare me a little bit. I am working on feeling safe in the crate too, but i have been doing a lot better! I am a sweet girl, who just needs to feel safe, loved and have boundaries. I am currently being fostered in Pleasanton, CA. If you would like to meet me, please fill out an application on our website www.californiabullyrescue.org/adopt

Story
Momo came to our rescue when his owner passed away due to Covid-19. Momo is a little guy around 30 pounds and nine years old. He gets along well with other dogs, and has been a great older dog with younger foster mates. He truly is a gem of a dog, and loves to curl up in a bed and look up at you with soulful eyes. We are looking for a home that would love a senior guy who has such a zest for life and a lot of spunk left in his step! Because he had undergone a specialized surgery, his diet was difficult to manage for the family, dealing with grief. He has been with us about a year as we managed his diet and medication and is finally ready for his next forever home! If you are interested in meeting please fill out an application at our website www.gobeyondrescue.org/adopt. Our adoption fee is $450 and includes spay/neuter, microchipping and up to date vaccines. We adopt within 200 miles of San Francisco.

Story
- COURTESY POST - Hello, my name is Larry!  I am a 4 ½ years old Bull Engish Terrier looking to be rehomed by my family.  Unfortunately, my current living situation is not ideal for me, and I need a home where I'm the only dog and spoiled with love. I'm wonderful with all people, very handsome, crate trained, good in the house, fully trained and a joy on leash. My favorite thing is to snuggle & cuddle for long periods of time. I'm a true homebody at heart!! I also love to go for walks & ride in cars!! And, true to the breed I don't love all dogs so needs a home who does not expect me to have lots of dog friends. If you are interested in adopting me, please fill out an application at gobeyondrescue.org
