Story

Lola enjoys meeting new people and is generous with her affection. She is a Bulldog mix and is approximately 7 years old. She needs lifelong medication for her chronic dry eye and environmental allergies, both of which are under good control with her current regimen. She recently had to have her right eye removed but has healed well from the surgery. She is current on all vaccines, heartworm negative, and microchipped. She is house-trained and crate-trained. She would love a new home where she can get the attention and affection she so enjoys. She should be placed as an only dog, as she does not get along with other dogs.

Story

I’ve cared for my dog since he was a newborn from a local breeder, and he is now a healthy, vibrant 5-year-old. I’m seeking a loving and experienced adopter who has the financial stability, time, and dedication to provide him with the attention and care he deserves. The ideal owner would have patience and a true passion for dogs. My dog is full of life—energetic, affectionate, and always eager to interact with his people. He’s friendly, loves companionship, and occasionally displays a silly, playful side that brings joy to those around him. If you’re looking for a loyal, spirited companion and have the time and resources to ensure his happiness, he could be the perfect addition to your home.

Story

Bellarose hit 1 on 11/28/24 and she is a one of a kind petite Maltipoo! She is 8 pounds of sweetness, very loving and loyal to her owners. She is an indoor dog who enjoys cuddling and giving lots of licks to show her love for you. She enjoys being with her owner or family at all times. A calm atmosphere w/ kids age 8 and up, an adult that stays home or is able to take her to work is ideal. Please don’t crate more than 30 minutes - as this breed requires time and attention. Whomever I rehome her too will receive all belongings - crate, blanket, bowl, chest carrier, leash, collar, chip info, shot info, clothes, lounging biscuit, toys, pads, snacks, etc…Bella is pad trained for pee and poop, as it was more convenient for me. You can train her quickly to go relieve herself outside should you choose too. Bella rides well in a car and she enjoys it. She is a wonderful dog with great spirit. Bella was bought from a breeder. Rehoming anytime after December 16th, 2024. Thank you!
