My story

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

APPLICATIONS NOW CLOSED 10/23/24

Hi, I’m Winnie! ( DOB 07/13/2024)

I'm a 3 lb ball of energy and sweetness wrapped up in a tiny package. There’s nothing I love more than playing fetch, following my fur foster brother Stampy (a bulldog) everywhere, and curling up on your lap for cuddles. While I may be small, my personality is anything but! I am playful, curious, and full of puppy mischief. I’ve been known to sneak off to chew on books or cords when you’re not looking (I am a puppy after all!), but with gentle reminders, I am quick to get back on track.

I am an adaptable little pup and I can thrive in almost any living situation, whether it’s a suburban home, city apartment, or rural residence (just not a farm, as I’m a bit too small). Because of my tiny size, a home with toddlers might not be ideal, as young kids could unintentionally hurt me. But I would do great with older children or in a home with seniors.

I love other dogs, especially ones I can shadow and cuddle with, so a home with a playmate would be a bonus! I’m friendly, submissive, and I thrive on companionship.

My foster mom says I have many talents, one of them being an escape artist. Due to my tiny size, I can squeeze through small spaces, so a secure yard or a fenced area is a must! I’ve been staying close to my foster home until I am fully vaccinated, so I will need some basic training for walks once I am ready (and once it is safe) for me to get out there and explore!

I’m currently pee pad trained, and I am now working on going outside to be fully house trained

If you’re looking for a tiny, affectionate, and playful pup to join your family, I might just be the perfect fit. I’m full of charm and ready to bring love and joy to my forever home!

More about this rescue

We rescue mainly Bulldogs and other flat faced dogs!!!! We love the breeds and know they sometimes need extra care and love. Before you consider any of these breeds you should get familiar with the terms; cherry eye, entropian, dry eye, heat stroke, bloat, cruciate and know that sometimes these breeds can develop or have these issues. Also remember they drool, snore, pass gas and breath heavy this is not for everyone, but for us it is normal!
