My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi everyone – my name is Meatball. I am a short little squatty “Micro-Bully” (the vet thinks maybe American/English Bulldog, a little bit French and a little bit mini pittie) and I weigh a diminutive 35lbs. Although I am small in size, I am big in personality. I love to play with and chase my foster brother and sister, Roscoe (a CEBR alum) and Layla, around the backyard. I don’t do very well catching up to them. They have much longer legs.

Although I am fully grown, my foster parents think I am still very puppy-like in some of my behaviors. I don’t like getting my paws wiped when I come in from outside. We are also working on understanding what are my toys rather than my foster parent’s hands. I need some redirection. I also need to learn to take treats gently. I get so excited that did a good job and earned a treat. I sometimes forget to take it nicely. My forever family needs to be patient with me as I keep learning.

Since I am only 1-2 years old, my foster brother and sister are being good role models for me. They taught me a lot about walking on a leash and going on a walk. I was mostly potty trained when I got to my foster home, but Layla and Roscoe helped remind me where to do my business.

When CEBR rescued me, I came in with a skin condition. The vet gave me some medicine and it is slowly clearing up. I am doing much better. I do want a family that can give me attention. I will follow you around and be your shadow. Then, I will quietly go back to my safe place, my crate. I do love big fluffy beds too.

As you can see in my pictures, I am cute and adorable. My little tongue is often sticking out of my face. I love to give kisses and I am looking forward to finding my forever family! I’d really like to have other dogs in my forever family!

Additional adoption info

1. If you would like to know if you are in our adoption area, please View our Adoption Area Map.

We know there are so many wonderful homes out there in other states and other parts of Illinois that we simply can't get to.

2. We will only consider a home with an application on file. So, if you don't have your application on file with us, please fill one out. To fill out our application, please visit: http://ebullymatch.com/Adopt.html.

3. Each application is thoroughly reviewed and will either pass through to a phone interview, or will not move forward. We will contact you if we feel you make the cut. We also require an in-home interview and will advise if you have made it through to that round.

4. Each bulldog will come with an adoption fee that varies from around $600 and up depending on the age and health of the dog. In addition, we require a contract that indicates that if for any reason, you can no longer keep your rescued bulldog, you will contact us directly for rehoming.

More about this rescue

We are the gold standard, the oldest, most experienced, top-notch pure-breed English Bulldog rescue in the Midwest. Our bullies get the highest level of care and commitment. They spend their time with us in foster homes where they get daily love and attention. No cages, no institutions.

We are an Illinois licensed shelter and a 501c3 charitable organization. The care we provide our English bulldogs, including a high quality diet, the best veterinary care from a bulldog specialist, and behavioral evaluations, exceeds any rescue organization around. Your contributions to help care for our bullies would be so appreciated as each rescue typically costs us more in care than the adoption fees we collect.
