Story
Hi there, I'm Vernon! I am a super snuggly sweetheart. I have the the softest, rabbit-like fur you’ll ever touch. I'm a bulldog mix with the cutest underbite, really, I'm a total cuddlebug and love nothing more than curling up close for a nap—or playing joyfully with other dogs. Before rescue, I was surviving as a stray on the streets for months, too scared to trust despite many kindhearted attempts. When I finally decided it was okay to trust and taken in, I had some serious wounds from life outside — I got some TLC, antibiotics, and love. But that is all behind me now and my foster says I've healed beautifully, both inside and out. I have been told that I can have a very serious look but I am gentle, affectionate, and ready to bond deeply with a forever family. While I haven't met cats yet, I am at my best and confident when I am with other dogs and would thrive in a home with canine companions or loving humans who adore snuggles. Now that my rough days are behind me, I'm ready for a soft bed, full belly, and lots of love—maybe with you? ADOPTION FEE: $350 (All MVPC dogs are heartworm-tested and on prevention, completely vetted, spayed/neutered, microchipped, crate-trained and house-trained) ADOPTER: Dog experience BIRTHDAY: 11/5/2023 FENCE: Required (an electric fence is not an acceptable form of containment) DOG FRIENDLY: Yes DOGS IN HOME: Required CATS: Unknown CHILDREN: Yes, 8 and over I AM READY TO GO HOME - If you are approved to be my new family, a hold fee of $100 is required and will be applied to the full adoption fee of $350 when MVPC comes to visit your house with me! ***WE DO NOT HOLD DOGS.

Story
Willy is looking for his forever home! Coming in at 3 years old, 19 inches, and 50 pounds (yes, you read that right), this fat ham is ready to find his people. Willy has an affinity for his blanket, short walks, and Yak Cheese Chews. He does fantastic in his crate, 100% potty trained, and is quiet as a mouse (unless the dishwasher is running).  If his underbite, crooked ear, and stubby tail didn’t win you over, he’s hoping his personality will! Apply today! All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application. We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information. We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.   December 21, 2025, 10:14 pm

Story
Where are my bulldog lovers!? Or do you have a friend that loves them? Let me introduce you to Thanos! He is a beautiful merle male, who was sold as a "Frenchton," but who is a healthy 40 pounds and much more like an English Bulldog. He was surrendered with a bad ear infection, and he has been through all his treatments and is healed now, but not sure if his ear is going to learn to stand back up.  He is four years old, healthy, and a lover who wants only to be on your lap at all times! Thanos is fine with all of my dogs (10 others!), but he is not particularly interested in playing with them. He, more so, acknowledges and ignores them. I wish he could teach me that skillset!   All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application.

Story
Location: MiamisBurg, OH Food: American Journey Limited Ingredient Lamb & Sweet Potato Recipe Grain-Free Dry Dog Food Medication: NexGard Plus If you're looking for a sweet, gentle girl who would thrive in a cozy home filled with love, attention, and plenty of scratches, Ronnie (Veronica) may be the perfect match for you! Ronnie is a petite, 2½-year-old Exotic Bulldog with a calm, low-energy personality. She does wonderfully with other dogs, children, cats, and adults, and though it may take some time to come out of her shell, she adapts well to most situations. Ronnie would be happy as an only pet or alongside another calm dog who can match her laid-back energy. Throughout the day, she enjoys short bursts of playful energy and loves entertaining herself with her toys or playing fetch. She's still learning what it means to be part of a family, so she'll need a patient adopter willing to help her practice basic commands like come, sit, stay, and lie down. Ronnie loves her crate and is reliably potty trained, with only the occasional accident. Overall, Ronnie is very healthy, though like most bulldogs she can be prone to overheating. She has pretty short legs, so uncarpeted stairs may be difficult for her. She also tends to scrape the nails on her front paws while walking. Because of this, she's best suited for a comfortable indoor lifestyle with supervised playtime on soft surfaces or grass. If you think Ronnie could be a wonderful addition to your family, please fill out an application for her today! ***Adoption Process*** -All current pets in the home need to be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines and on veterinarian prescribed flea/tick/heart worm prevention. -Everyone living in the home, including all resident dogs, must be present at the meet and greet located in the Southwest Ohio area. -We DO NOT ship dogs!!!

Story
Location: Dayton, OH Food: Royal Canine Hydrolyzed Protein Medication: NexGard Plus Meet Laverne! 🐾 Laverne is a 3-year-old English Bulldog with a sweet, gentle soul and the best butt wiggle east of the Mississippi! She’s easygoing, easy to please, and impossibly easy to love. This girl is about 90% scrumptious couch potato and always ready for a Netflix marathon. That said, she also enjoys leisurely walks and spending time with other dogs, though her preferred position is laying down while participating (lol). Although Laverne is quite the couch potato, she is also so lovably quirky. She’s observant of everything going on around her, engaging, and always making eye contact. She’ll surprise you with little antics like walking on the back of the couch. And she’ll keep you laughing with her funny facial expressions, quirky belly crawl, and her signature move of snaking between your feet just to roll over for belly rubs. Laverne is crate trained and quiet in her crate, great in the car, and is truly a joy to have around. She walks nicely on leash when she has a confident dog friend to follow. When walking solo or in crowded areas, she can get a bit nervous and sometimes needs encouragement. Laverne’s Ideal Home: A home with a cozy couch, lots of cuddles, leisurely walks, and plenty of love. She would thrive with a confident canine companion to show her the ropes. If you’re looking for a low-key, lovable companion with a world-class wiggle, Laverne just might be your dog. 💕 ***Adoption Process*** -All current pets in the home need to be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines and on veterinarian prescribed flea/tick/heart worm prevention. -Everyone living in the home, including all resident dogs, must be present at the meet and greet located in the Southwest Ohio area. -We DO NOT ship dogs!!!

Story
Location: Beavercreek, OH Food: Purina One Hydrolyzed Protein Medication: NexGard Plus monthly I am ready for my forever family!! I have beautiful blue eyes, as blue as the sky on a clear summer day. I am deaf and my other senses are heightened. So that’s pretty cool! I have some really pretty brown spots on my otherwise white coat. I feel it really makes me stand out in the crowd. I am the main character and I don’t need a supporting cast! I don’t really like being around other dogs and I REALLY dislike cats. Speaking of likes, I really like people. The older, the better! I don’t really enjoy hanging out with young kids and do best around humans who are 15 and up. My foster family thinks I am pretty funny. When I get excited I either hop or plop! I hop like a bunny and I plop for belly ribs. When I see you my entire body wiggles, not just my tale. I’m basically an overachiever. I love to be outside and I even like the snow! I am super curious and alert of my surroundings. I like to walk outside and my foster mom is working on my leash manners, but say I am learning! I sleep a lot, like a whole lot. I play in bursts and then lay down. I like to sit and lay right up against my humans but I’m not a lap dog. Like most bullies, I am VERY food motivated. I don’t want to brag, but I am really good at the sit command. As soon as I see my foster mom raise her hand in a sit command, I do it. Like. It’s. My. Job. Note from my foster mom- Aialik is a really sweet girl, but she requires a strong leader to make her feel safe. We will be looking bff for someone who has bully experience. ***Adoption Process*** -All current pets in the home need to be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines and on veterinarian prescribed flea/tick/heart worm prevention. -Everyone living in the home, including all resident dogs, must be present at the meet and greet located in the Southwest Ohio area. -We DO NOT ship dogs!!!
