Story
🌅 Meet Dawn! Dawn is a charming 2-year-old female English Bulldog/Beagle mix, the perfect picture of her breeds—sweet-faced, stocky, and full of personality. 💛 Personality: Dawn is a total love bug, but she’s a little shy and a bit heavy, so walks aren’t her favorite just yet. She’s looking for a patient adopter who can help her gain confidence, gently encourage movement, and shower her with affection along the way. 🏡 Ideal Home: Dawn will thrive with a calm, loving home that understands she needs time, patience, and gentle encouragement. A family committed to helping her come out of her shell—and supporting her on a little weight-loss journey—will be her perfect match. ✨ Why You’ll Love Her: Dawn’s sweet eyes, lovable face, and heart full of affection make her irresistible. With the right guidance and care, she’ll blossom into a loyal, snuggly companion who loves her people with all her heart.

Story
Rodeo Clown is a sweet, lovable English Bulldog with a personality as charming as her name! While we were told she “can be a little crazy” (hence the name), so far she’s shown nothing but gentle sweetness and affection. She loves being around people, snuggling in cozy spots, and enjoying a relaxed, loving environment. Rodeo Clown would thrive in a home that appreciates a calm, affectionate bulldog who enjoys the simple joys of life—soft beds, steady routines, and plenty of love. If you’re looking for a sweet, cuddly bulldog with a fun name and even bigger heart, Rodeo Clown is ready to steal yours. 💛🐾

Story
Hi there new friend! My name is Olive. Im a 2-year-old, Blue Fawn Olde English Bulldogge, that means I look a bit like an English Bulldog, but Im long and lean. Think bully sport mode. I also have beautiful green hazel eyes that I love to look at you lovingly with. I started life as a breeding dog, but I guess I wasnt very good at my job, so lucky me- I got to retire! Now Im reliving the puppyhood that I didnt get the 1st time around. I like to explore my world with my mouth, because everything is new to me- but I would never hurt a fly on purpose. Im getting better about exploring with my nose and not my mouth. Ive also learned that when people say leave it that they dont want me to have something. Im so smart and Im learning what makes my foster people happy everyday. I hope my forever family will help me continue to learn and become the perfect house pup. What I dont have to learn is how to be affectionate and loving, because I already know all that really important stuff! I also love to run and jump and play, and boy can I run fast! My foster parents laugh at my gymnastics everyday, and say that I have a happy-go-lucky personality. I always use the potty outside, but I havent mastered the leash yet. I dont really understand that Im tethered to you. I have a backyard here, but Im working on understanding a leash walk too. Im a quiet girl, and I havent really used my voice here at all. I also sleep happily in my crate all night. I need to get my beauty sleep for more zoomies. Ive been getting along well with the other dogs here, and I like all people too, but small people might be harder for me. Im just not the carefulest of girls yet. So, whatcha think? Are you my forever family? -Olive   Please visit our website www.ebullymatch.com to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.

Story
Hi, Im Sawyer, and Im a 7-year-old handsome redheaded bulldog guy. Are you looking for a sad face to stare at you every time you move? Well, Im that guy! I have one of those faces that comes with a care package of guilt. My face has a way to capture your heart and make you change your whole life. Im the real-life Eeyore. I will follow you around or sit and stare at you with a permanent sad face. Even though I have a permanent sad face, Im an extremely happy boy. I get super excited to see people of all ages. I run around in circles and cant get enough love from you or them. The more affection I get, the closer I will get. I will end up on your lap or your guests laps if they let me. My temperament is easy going and sometimes silly. I occasionally play with toys or chew a bone. I enjoy sunny days and sit outside and watch the neighbors do their yard work. My favorite thing to do is to snuggle and put my head on you. Yes, I will find a part of your body to rest my head on. I came into CEBR with my sister, but she really is bossy with me and my foster mom thinks Id be happier without her. I dont fight back when shes being bratty, but I hide and wait for the coast to be clear. I would prefer to be an only dog or a home with a very friendly, easygoing dog to hang out with. I want to enjoy my days without hiding in a corner. As Im getting older, I do have some minor medical issues. Typical bulldog ones like dry eye, and food allergies. I also have an elongated palate, so I snore loud and sometimes I wake up and gag. This will need to be monitored by a vet to make sure my symptoms dont get worse as I get older. Dont worry, it doesnt stop me from eating, playing or going for walks. Oh, did I mention, I love car rides. I just sit in the back seat and watch the cars go by. I would be a perfect companion to go on road trips. Im fully potty trained so you have nothing to worry about. Reach out for more information about me or if you wanna get a better look at my cute sad mug. -Sawyer Please visit our website www.ebullymatch.com to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.

Story
Hi! My name is Bear. As you can see, Im beary, beary cute. I am a 3-year-old English Bulldog and weigh about 53 pounds. I was surrendered by my previous owner so I can find a family that has bulldog experience. I came to CEBR with good looks and sweetness but not an ounce of training. I am still learning what is for me and what I need to leave alone. I have a very happy-go-lucky personality and just enjoy life. I like treats, people, dogs and car rides. Im learning to like toys but still havent quite found my favorite yet. I do enrichment activities (ie- lickimat, snuffy mat, ripping cardboard boxes that I am given) and training activities every single day to redirect my undesirable behaviors and burn my bully energy. My foster family said they had to Bearproof the house. When I first moved in, I couldnt even handle watching the garbage cans being emptied, but I am doing better with that now. Toilet paper, garbage cans, plungers and cleaning brushes have been moved off the floor. Towels have to be hanging out of reach so I dont grab them off the towel rack. I dont like things plugged into outlets. If I see them, I will unplug them. And the cord may become a game of tug, whether you like it or not. Rice cooker, blow dryer and computer cords are no match for me. Decorative items have to be out of reach too. Like I said, I am working on training and manners so I can be friends (not frenemies) with everything in the house. Im working on house training too. Im improving but still not 100% perfect. I like going outside but I like to chew and tug my leash. In time, that will improve too as I learn. Things I am good at- being beary cute, very sweet, not an ounce of bulldog attitude or stink eye. I am well-mannered when my ears get cleaned. Commands I have learned- sit, paw, stay, leave it. We practice those commands daily so I continue to do better. I am also good about going in my crate and staying there while no one is home. My forever family must be patient. I spent my first 3 years of life living rule-free so it will take patience, training, training and more training plus time for me to learn manners and the difference between right and wrong. In addition to daily training with my foster mom, I have had training sessions with A Sound Beginning trainer. While I like kids, I dont know my own strength so I would probably do better with older kids in my family. Although I require patience, I am the sweetest and cutest bully you will ever meet! Foster mom says Im sweet as pie and just as nice to look at. Are you the right people to help me be the best Bear I can be?
