Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.Adoption Fee: $600 Meet Shortz, the ultimate couch potato with a heart of gold! This 6 year old French Bulldog/American Staffordshire mix weighs in at a sturdy 42lbs of pure chill. His daily routine is as low-maintenance as he is—wake up, eat, sunbathe, repeat. Shortz loves lounging in the backyard, soaking up the rays, and catching up on his beauty sleep (which comes with the cutest piggy snores you've ever heard). He’s working hard on his potty training, and while he may need a little leash encouragement to get moving, once he’s up, he’s all about his business. Whether it's breakfast at dawn or dinner at dusk, Shortz is a polite little gentleman, patiently waiting for the 'OK' before diving into his meal.   Despite his laid-back nature, Shortz has a social side too! He’s been a total sweetheart since day one—greeting his new family (including their 9-year-old daughter) with his signature mellow vibes and lovable personality. He’s great with other dogs, happily pulling on the leash to say hello in the friendliest way possible. School drop-offs? No problem! Crowds? Bring ‘em on! He’s calm, cool, and collected. Even the household parrot flying over his head didn’t faze him—just another day in the life of Shortzy, the coolest dog around. He’s a total lovebug who enjoys the occasional game of fetch but prefers to spend his time cuddled up in his favorite spot with his humans.   If you’re looking for a super chill, low-maintenance, no-drama best friend, Shortz is your guy. He’s a snuggle enthusiast, a light chewer (only on his toys, promise!), and the perfect companion for binge-watching your favorite shows. He may take his time on walks, but his heart moves at full speed when it comes to loving his people. Could your couch be the one he's been dreaming of? Adopt Shortz and find out!   Shortz is an option for a home with a lot or a little experience. He is a great temperament for less experienced and the perfect speed for someone who wants a calm dog. He is an option for kids over the age of 5.January 26, 2025, 6:27 am

Story
All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, shots current (DHPP, Bordetella and Rabies where applicable), dewormed, flea and tick treated, and microchipped.  * If you are interested in a dog, please first read the biography on the dog (keep scrolling down for the bio!) and then go to our website, www.dpsrescue.com for an application. Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.Adoption fee: $1000 Roly-Poly is a 3-4 year old French Bulldog who we rescued from the shelter. He's a round and chunky fellow (hence the name!) weighing in at about 26 lbs. When our volunteer went to the shelter, Roly put his paws up on the bars of his kennel and begged, 'please take me!' How could we say no to that face?! Roly's foster says: He is the most gentle, loving dog we have ever met. The first day he stayed in the crate for an hour or so then slowly came out. He very quickly accepted cuddles but seemed a little nervous and a little scared of quick movements close to him and would tend to look scared and back away. Within a couple of days he got used to the noise of the home and could sleep through violin practice and the roomba and just general kids noise around him. He loves to be cuddled and will walk into any lap that is available and will not move away. He likes to be in the middle of everything. After a few days, he offered his trust to his and gave us his belly for rubs.   Roly wakes up in the morning around 6:30 am on weekdays and 7:30am on the weekend and quickly likes to get his business done. He's about 95% potty trained but dislikes going out on cold mornings! He generally prefers to eat lunch and dinner when the family eats. He loves going for walks when the sun is out a few times a day and sunning himself. He mostly likes to hang in the home office and nap or in the family room for his naps but prefers to be wherever there are the most people around. At night he sleeps in our room on the floor on his doggy bed. He sleeps great through the night. He loves to go on walks (20ish minutes) a few times a day. He is very comfortable with the leash and only pulls a bit when he sees another dog he wants to play with. He does tend to bark very little also at this time. Roly gets along with most dogs of his size range, but some might find his typical Frenchie play-style a bit too much. He has played with the foster's neighbor's dog and they get along really well!  Roly-Poly is an option for a home with prior dog experience that has owned a Frenchie or has done their research on the breed and understands their needs. He is an option for kids 5+.January 28, 2025, 6:53 pm

Story
Linus is part of Charlie Brown Litter. Holly mom is French Bull Dog /Boston Terrier mix. 2/16/24 DNA test results: Dad was a Cattle Dog 40% and 9% Border Collie. They should be medium size adults and smart. Holly was abandoned at a distant shelter and was very pregnant. Linus' DOB: 12/1/23. Once we rescued Holly and she arrived at her foster home within 2 hours she went into labor and gave birth to 5 puppies. 2 girls and 3 boys. Whew! Just in time. All the pups and mom did great at their foster home. Home raised healthy lovable and social. The 5 pups are now learning at their next foster home for puppy training. All are playful snuggly and lovable. We do not know what they are mixed with. They seem larger than Frenchie pups and have tails. We will start to review applications Jan 20th. Puppies will be 8 weeks old on Jan. 27th and will get their first vaccinations and deworm. Need home with attached backyard. More info. to come on each puppy's personality. 1/24/24 Update: The 3 boys are fairly similar all playful and slower than the girls. Linus and Snoopy are a little more timid but get more playful when riled up by Brody. All love attention and to be held. They all did very well getting their first shots and these puppies are extremely smart and well behaved for such young puppies. They are learning sit and not to bite and are all doing very very well. They will make wonderful family pets for someone. Their temperament is fantastic gentle playful and sweet. 2/9/24 Update 10 weeks old: Patty is definitely the smallest with smallest paws. Snoopy and Linus are about the same size 12 pounds and Patty is 10 lbs.. I think they will be medium sized dogs. Snoopy and Linus are slower and calmer. Patty is spunky and more independent and curious and a little more Frenchie personality . All learning crate training. Few accidents on pee pads now. They will hold to go out to backyard for potty biz. 3/15/24 Need foster home for one on one puppy training and socials.November 4, 2024, 2:12 pm

Story
Meet Sesame! This adorable 2-year-old Frenchie is a sweet and charming girl with a delightful little grunt you`re sure to fall in love with. Sesame enjoys her daily strolls, often parading around with her favorite toys proudly held in her mouth. While she adores people, she can be a bit particular about handling and would thrive in a home with older, more understanding children. If you`re looking for a sweet and playful companion with a touch of quirky charm, Sesame might just be the perfect addition to your family!

Story
French Bulldog Age: 2-3 yrs old Female, spayed 24 lbs Adoption Fee: Donation (includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations) Mary Lou was brought to the Stockton shelter by someone who said they “found her.” The “finder” thought that maybe she had been hit by a car, which is why she didn’t have any use of her back legs? However, there were no signs of trauma. Given her breed and that she was obviously used for breeding with no signs of ever having a C-section, it is likely that she injured her back giving natural puppy birth (French Bulldogs require C-section surgery to safely birth puppies, but there are a lot of unscrupulous backyard breeders just trying to make a buck and taking shortcuts - leaving the dogs to suffer. Many of the dogs we work with that have no use of their back legs recover to some degree with work. Mary Lou hasn’t made much progress in this area, so will likely be a paraplegic dog for the remainder of her life. She prefers to drag the hind legs behind her, rather than using a cart. And because she doesn’t have use of her back legs, pee and pooping has it’s challenges, as well. In addition to no use of her back legs, she does have some medical conditions that are common to the bulldog breed (allergies, ear infections, and the occasional urinary tract infections associated with her urinary challenges). * * * * STOP BREEDING BULLDOGS!!!! * * * * Mary Lou qualifies for our “permanent foster” program where we support her vet needs for the remainder of her life (as long as she is fostered/adopted locally). On the other hand, she is super, super sweet. She loves everyone: humans and canines (and maybe cats? Not sure). She needs a home with no stairs, and where someone is home most of the time. She would prefer a home with another friendly dog. For more information about Mary Lou, contact nobodysperfektdogs@gmail.com
