My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Bullet's journey is nothing short of remarkable. Rescued from a shelter in December 2023, where he faced euthanasia due to being deemed "unwanted," Bullet’s spirit and sweet demeanor quickly won hearts. His tough past includes surviving on the streets for nine months, during which he sustained numerous injuries, including two bullets still lodged in his body, though they don't cause him harm. He required FHO surgery in early January 2024 due to a back leg injury, likely from being hit by a car. Now, Bullet runs and plays as if his leg was never hurt.

At approximately 2.5 years old, Bullet is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and in great health following his surgery. He gets along wonderfully with an older Cane Corso and a female American Bully XL in his foster home. He has been around adults and children 12 and older but has not been tested with younger kids, cats, or other animals. 

Bullet is a well-mannered, calm dog who knows basic commands like sit, lay down, and stay. He is potty trained, doesn’t jump on people, and sits at your feet with a wagging tail, waiting to be petted. Bullet loves playing fetch, tug-of-war, and even enjoys playing with empty water bottles, likely a habit from his days on the street.

He’s been through so much, and Bullet deserves a home where he can get the attention and love he truly needs. Anyone lucky enough to adopt him will gain a very special companion.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Potential families are asked to complete or Adoption Application before visiting our dogs. We introduce you and your family including any other dogs/cats in your family to our adoptable dogs. If the meeting is a good match we will schedule a home check to ensure that the home is a good match for the pet that you have selected. You will then be asked to complete our Adoption Agreement and to finalize the adoption there will be a processing fee to adopt a pet from us. All proceeds go directly back to help support our rescue and there are no paid employees so all fees are used for our pets waiting to be adopted.

More about this rescue

We are located in the San Diego area and pull dogs from southern California shelters and we assist families in rehoming their pets so that they don't have to go to a shelter.

I started doing rescue because I couldn't stand to see adoptable dogs being euthanized due to lack of an immediate home. I knew that I could find them good homes.
