Story
Alert!! SAD STORY!! Meet Rocky, a 21 lb Jack Russel mix. He was thrown out of a semi tractor trailer truck by his owner, who took off. Luckily there were cameras in the parking lot, and he faces multiple charges. It took 30 hours to trap Rocky. He is a sweet boy, even though we think he was physically abused as well, very fond of women, who was neutered, updated on vaccines & heart worm tested. He's energetic, but also likes to cuddle, and be with you, follows you around, Fenced yard a MUST...he's part Jack!!! Rocky deserves someone who is home most of the day, preferably a woman, as he was abused by a male....And, he is definitely not fond of cats!! Please give this guy the "second chance" he deserves, to realize that there are good people out there that will love him. If interested in providing Rocky a wonderful home, you must fill out our very simple application mulligananimalrescue.com Thank you!

Story
Chevy is a friendly and loving German Shepherd. He gets along great with my toddler and seeks love, snuggles, and attention. He has a lot of energy and is overall very healthy. Unfortunately, with two young children and hectic work schedules, Chevy just doesn’t get the attention that he deserves or that I wish we could give him. Chevy can be aggressive to other animals and would do best in a house by himself. Chevy is current on all of his shots and just needs a loving home with someone or a family to give him the attention that he deserves. We have had Chevy since he was 8 weeks old and he will be turning 8 years old at the end of this year. My family and I will miss him dearly, but he needs a home where he can be walked and exercised often. With two young children, we cannot give him the attention that he deserves and it makes us sad. We would love him to go to a home where he could be the number one priority.

Coral, our longest DBU tenure, has been patiently waiting 650 days for her forever family to come along. Despite her long wait, she knows the perfect forever home will come along! Don’t let those wheels fool you, she’s  just like every other dog, only faster! She doesn't use her cart inside the house and gets around just fine. Coral had an injury when she was just a baby and it caused permanent nerve damage. She will have to wear some fashionable diapers and use her cart outside, but that is the only thing “different” about her. She loves kids, dogs, cats, chickens, ducks and rabbits - everyone! The dogtor says she’s very healthy and ready to go to my furever home now - so whatcha waitin’ for?? Coral comes with her cart, supplies, 1 year of diapers, dozens of fashionable diapers & support from her fabulous foster mom. She is 2 years old and fully grown. Coral’s adoption fee is SPONSORED! Coral is an amazing dog and would make a great therapy dog to visit schools, hospitals and nursing homes. She is a star at our events and loves to meet new people. Please share this post for Coral. We know her perfect family is out there waiting for her.If you think Coral would be a good fit for your family get that application in at https://www.dontbullyus.com/forms/adoption-application/ Applications open to adult adoptions for dogs 1 year and older to homeowners and renters 25 years of age and older who have a stable track record in a home.
