Story
SWEET AS PIE! Finn is a super cute and very unique Golden Retriever/American Bulldog. He has an unusual brindle and black coat that we have never seen before. He is a one year old puppy who is full of fun. This sweet boy loves his brother and plays with him all day long. Finn is a gentle boy who enjoys being held and getting cuddles. He is very affectionate and longs for his furever home to have someone to give him the love and attention he deserves. Right now he lives on a farm and is used to being around horses, ducks and chickens. He learned very quickly how to sit and is now learning to walk on a leash. He would do well in a home with other dogs and older children. This little boy is already neutered and has a microchip. His adoption includes a collar and training leash as well as two training classes with our trainer for you to learn good leash skills, how to interact with other dogs and people, and how to be a good leader. Our rescue provides life time support for you. We are available by phone or in person to assist with pet parenting. Call or email us to meet this sweet boy. Ph: 502-509-9886 info@arielbullyrescue.com

A GOOFY, FUN BOY. Looking to adopt a new best friend? Look no further than Goober! This handsome husky mix is a high energy three year old boy who would love an active person or family to call his own. Goober is an affectionate and playful pup who is quiet, clever, and a bit goofy. Tug of war is a favorite game. He loves his food (just ask him to do a zoomie for you), but he also loves nothing more than a good snuggle. He's a well-trained boy who is excellent at pooping in the bushes- what a gem!) and he rides perfectly in the car- what a chill dude! If you're looking for a loving and adorable dog who will stick by your side through thick and thin, Goober is the one for you! He has already had $5000 worth of training so he is so well behaved, is great on a leash, knows commands and is very well crate trained. Goober may be a bit shy around some dogs, but plays with others. He likes to find the right vibe. With people, he loves to meet everyone. Goober can't wait to explore, poop in the bushes, and snuggle up with you - what more could you ask for? If you're ready to welcome this sweet and silly boy into your heart and home, reach out to set up a meet and greet.

Story
I got Zoey when she was 8 weeks old and she’s going on 5 happy years. I’m looking for someone who has plenty of time to tend to her. With new jobs and upcoming children she hasn’t been able to get the attention she deserves and I hope to find someone that will be able to exhaust her energy and give her an abundance of love.
