English Bulldog puppies and dogs in Oak Grove, Minnesota

** Can only be seen by appointment: 651-772-8983 **Well hey there! My name is Gus and I'm a handsome, 5 year old Bulldog mix. I was picked up by St. Paul Animal Control and my owner was never found so I was transferred to Animal Ark. I can be a bit shy with new people so I would need some time to get to know you, but I am a sweet boy. I need to go to a home with a fenced in yard, with no children or small animals, and with someone who is willing to teach me how to be a well-mannered boy. I would also need a slow introduction to any potential canine siblings. I am very treat motivated and very smart. Since I'm such a special boy, I can only be met with an approved adoption application. If you think I might be a good fit for you, please contact the shelter!

Kole is a beautiful 7 year old male Old English bulldog. He is 80 pounds. Very sweet boy. We love him so much and don't want to get rid of him but he doesn't get along with his brother😪. I raised the puppies on my own. They are very well taken care of. Kole is fixed. He loves to snuggle and hang out with you. He likes walks and being outside in fenced in backyard. Please call me: Troy 612-801-1899. We desperately need to find him a home quickly!! Thank you !!

A portion of Nini's adoption fee has been sponsored by her friends at The Murray Fund. The adoption fee sponsorship credit of $325.00 will be applied during the contract process Hi, my name is Nini! History: Owner Surrender From the Foster: Hi, I'm Nini but my foster family calls me Nellie. Please read my whole bio before applying for me. I know I'm cute but I've got some specific needs for my forever home. I'm a young old English Bulldog and I'm special needs. I've been with my foster family for several months. I have several special needs my foster Mom will list them below. I'm here to talk about the fun stuff! I'm squishy, I'm cute, I love basically everyone and everything! I didn't learn bite inhibition as a young pup so I can be rough when I'm mouthy and playing but I redirect to a toy easily and play gentle for the most part. I love to be outside in all seasons! Nothing is better than being outside rolling on the ground! My doggy foster siblings are my rock they keep me stimulated with my limitations and I would really benefit from a tolerant playful pup friend. I am crate trained to a playpen and need to sleep in my special bed naked (see below). I'm quiet and sleep all night peacefully but it's best not to have me in your bedroom as it's occasionally a stinky affair. I love to snuggle with my people and getting scratchies is the best! I don't have typical basic training but I have my own version of most basic training. I have lots of needs for my forever home so please read what my Mom writes about my needs! From my foster mom: Nellie has several chronic medical conditions including: suspected spina bifida resulting in little use of her rear limbs total incontinence of bladder and bowels frequent UTIs potential elongation of soft pallet resulting in regurgitation of water and a fragile/chronic wound of her anus. Let me explain what that means for a home. Nellie needs someone home more often than not she needs very frequent diaper changes (currently every 4-6hr but can go up to 8 occasionally) she needs to sleep naked to let her skin breath which means the potential for lots of dirty laundry and cleaning she is currently staying clean overnight but it can change if she gets an upset belly. She needs someone who can handle expressing her urine and feces (I will teach you how to do this) and isn't squeamish around bodily fluids or wounds I promise it isn't as scary as it sounds. Her people need to be able to lift/carry Nellie (40lb). She needs a home with minimal/no stairs and preferably another playful and tolerant pup to keep her stimulated (not required just preferred we will chat about other stimulation methods if no other dogs and she wouldn't mind being the center of attention!) No really small children - Nellie can be mouthy when she plays and she is prone to spinal injuries which could result in loss of what mobility she has is her rear legs. Nellie also needs a family who is very financially secure as she will be a more expensive dog. From gathering supplies needed to bring her home to frequent vet visits she will cost more than your average dog. I will send a list of our favorite products for Nellie but you can get creative on your own too. This will not be a very quick adoption there is a lot to learn and several visits can be made to get to know Nellie and comfortable with all her needs. Nellie is extra work but she is SO worth it she is a sweet little wrinkle butt and she gives her whole heart to her people and she radiates the love and gratefulness to her caretakers and a bond unlike any other forms that makes the extra care seem like nothing. If you've made it this far and think you have a home for Nellie fill out an app to discuss her with us! Through the course of my veterinary care at Secondhand Hounds it was found that I most likely have spina bifida which causes secondary fecal and urine incontinence and I do wear diapers for this. I was also diagnosed with masticatory muscle myositis (MMM) which is an immune system disorder that causes difficulty opening and closing the jaw muscles involved with chewing. I was treated with steroids for this and I have responded very well to them!

Bentleys (400 Water St, Excelsior, MN 55331) will be hosting Underdogs for an adoption event. I will be there! Please email inquiries@underdogrescuemn.com for questions regarding the dogs. Hello, my name is Flounder and I’m an incredibly handsome, quiet, & happy-go-lucky young adult English Bulldog who loves attention from anyone willing to give it to me! Hee, hee!! I admit that I can be a bit clingy and will jump up on mom’s legs or lap for attention and according to her, jumping on people is bad etiquette… so although I don’t understand why it’s frowned upon, I am working on staying down. Oh yeah, I almost forgot to mention that I’m one of those ‘foodie’ types too. Not only do I enjoy chewing on Benebones, but I love all treats too! Hint, hint! I’m good with kids, cats, & other dogs and I like to follow my resident doggie pal around so much that I would love to have a companion at my new home but it’s not a requirement. I do fine with baths & will even tolerate foster mom cleaning my ears & the skin folds on my face; I am very good about going poo outside but not so much for potty, so I wear a belly band/diaper inside to avoid any embarrassing accidents. I am also leash & crate trained but I admit that I may grunt a bit when first in the kennel/crate. I can use stairs, but I prefers not to and will usually just stand at the top of them and wait for foster mom to carry me down so hopefully my new home won’t have any stairs! Anyway, I am a wonderfully sweet guy who is simply looking for the fur-ever home I so richly deserve with YOU…a patient, unconditionally loving fur-ever family that will NEVER give up on me. I promise I’m worth it, I will love you bigger than the universe, and I will make your world a MUCH happier place! Love, Flounder *Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders.  Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared.  Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption.  This will be at the adopters expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses.   Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue.   Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a    particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit.  Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home.   Bulldogs are a member of the Brachycephalic breed and therefore have a host of health issues that may arise.  Because these dogs are new into our rescue, health issues in the future may arise that we are not aware of.  Some of these issues are allergies, eye issues, yeast infections, interdigital cysts, slipped disks in their back, breathing problems, among a host of others that can occur at any time or when seasons change. While breed experience is not required, we encourage you to thoroughly research the breed and its financial, medical, and environmental needs to be sure the breed is a good fit for you and your family.  It is estimated that the average bulldog owner spends $2,000 per year on medical needs.  Bulldogs are one of the most expensive dogs to own, maintain, and rescue and our adoption fees reflect such expenses.  The application process for bulldogs usually moves quite quickly as they are a popular breed, so we ask that adopters do research and be prepared for adoption at the time you submit your application.  They are happy, goofy, playful characters and we are excited you are taking the first steps into rescuing one!   This dog requires an application fee.  This fee must be paid within 24 hours or your application will be considered void.    We will not review or contact applicants that have not completed the payment portion. Bulldog Applications will be responded to within 5 business days, after receipt of the application fee.  Please understand that paying the fee does not guarantee you will be approved to adopt the bulldog. Our goal is place bulldogs in homes that are suited for their individual needs. You may be willing and able to provide a great home, but if it doesn’t meet the specific needs of the bulldog, we will not approve your application.

Hi, I'm Thalia!  I am great with dogs of all sizes and love to learn all about this new life. I have a huge bulldog smile and love showing it off!  I walk well on leash outside and love to check out this new world.  I am kennel trained and keep it clean, while being quiet and resting until you come back home!  Potty training is going well, when I am kept on a good consistent schedule.  Right now, I do go potty in a fenced yard, but if you don't have a fence, we'd just have to work on pottying on leash together!  Foster mom says I am not a flight risk because being right near you is my favorite place to be - in fact, sometimes the humans trip over me because I'm right under them!  I'm a quiet girl and have not made a peep since being here, so if you are in an apartment or have shared walls, that would work for me! I'm a happy, fun loving girl who is ready for my family so I can keep learning and exploring! Is that you?

Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.  DO B:  05/01/2018 Requires another dog in home: Yes, a social and confident dog  Okay with dogs of all sizes: Yes Okay with cats: Yes Okay with children under 12 years old: Yes Weight: 43 lbs Requires a fenced yard:   Yes, needs a fenced yard Note: dogs must always be leashed whenever outside of a contained area. Invisible/ underground fencing is not recommended for most rescue dogs. I am pretty proud of myself!  I’ve come a long way since I first came here and I’ve learned so much thanks to the other dogs in my foster home, so I do require a social and confident dog in my forever home. That will help me gain confidence, get on a routine and learn all the important dog things! It does take me a while to warm up to both people and new dogs, but once I do, I am less afraid. My people are working with me on my dog skills. We started practicing walking on a leash and I freeze! But if you promise to keep practicing with me, I don’t need a fenced yard in my forever home. I am hoping you have patience while we both learn what works best for me and you. We are also working on my potty skills. I know I supposed to go outside but get a little worried, so foster mom carries me out the door and sometimes has to carry me back inside. Sometimes I get worried and do a little tinkle inside the house when I’m excited, this includes little accidents in the kennel too. I am trying my best to be brave, and I know in a calm home and full of patience we can practice together.   Everyday I am blossoming a bit more – I recently started showing interest in dog toys and foster mom was so excited! I have also started to wander around the house and not hide in my kennel. Foster mom used to have to coax me to into other areas of the house, but I am gaining some confidence by following the other dogs around. I am a timid but happy girl and would thrive in a home that has the patience to help me learn how to be the best dog I can be. My ideal forever home will be able to provide a safe space for me, has experience with shy dogs and loads of unconditional love! It may take a while, but I promise if you try your best I will too!
