Story
This beautiful girl is called Daisy White and she was born to a bulldog mix mama and we believe Dad was a Great Pyrenees mix himself. Born June 1st in a litter of 10, this girl is currently 20 lbs at 8 and 1/2 weeks. She knows her name and she loves to play with her siblings. She is one of the more energetic of the pups in her litter if you could call any of them really energetic. They lounge around in the sunroom and sleep inside a large crate or out on the floor and they just basically move at the speed of a snail. Extra skin, big paws,  beautiful droopy hang dog eyes and a heart to love you, that's what you get with these puppies. Daisy White loves to give kisses and Will crawl in your lap to get some hugs and cuddles. She knows commands and is learning to come to her name. If you tell her to 'go to your room' she goes. She's learned three or four commands like how to stay and how to lay down. She is also curious about the cat because she wants it to play with her. But alas, the cat has no interest in playing with a goofy, big bodied puppy that doesn't know her size. She should grow to be a 75 to 85 lb dog as an adult. She is gorgeous and she is a snuggler. If you are interested, please contact Critter Calvary rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com ASAP.    PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.August 19, 2024, 8:06 am

Story
Location: Scottsville, VAMy name is Roscoe. What's yours? I’m a happy, sweet guy and they say I’m a bulldog mix around 7-8 years of age. I love car rides, running, playing with toys and back scratches! I’m also crate trained, sleep through the night and know basic commands like sit and lie down! Do you like going on long walks? I love them! I love human companions, snuggling and kisses. I just wish I had a family of my own. Volunteers here at Finally Home love playing with me and taking me on hikes! Due to the fact that I wasn’t properly socialized as a younger dog, other animals scare and confuse me so I’m dog selective and need to be the only animal in the home. It’s not my fault but it’s held me back as I have been searching for my forever home for over a year. I hope that there is still the perfect person out there looking for a special dog like me to love! Roscoe is: *UTD on shots *Neutered *Current on flea and tick and heartworm medication.

Story
Location: Gloucester, VAHiya Handsome! That's what you might say when you meet this fine young fella. This is Fester, a sweet and well behaved dog at the pound. For being such a big fella, he is gentle and calm. He is happy to go walking with the volunteers, happy to meet other dogs, and is quite easily redirected if something sparks his curiosity. He is big and he is strong, so he needs someone who is comfortable with that. He is about two years old so old enough to know the basics and young enough to learn the rules of the road. Fester is smart, sweet and anxious to please. He knows several "tricks" and is happy to show off, then gently takes treats. He appears to be house trained, is happy and healthy, and ready for his new forever home. He is move in ready and would do well as either an only pet situation or with doggy siblings. Cats are an unknown He stays close to you when he is walking and would love to be your lapdog. Please come meet this fine pup, he would love to win your heart.

Story
Attention all Bulldog lovers!     This adorable Bulldog named Sweet Tart is in search of her forever home. She may be a bit bossy, but she's also housebroken and crate trained (although she's not a fan of the crate), she is also great for baths and getting her nails trimmed. One thing is she absolutely adores is food - she can't get enough of it! However, she would do best in a home without small children, and if there are other furry friends, she'll need to be fed separately. While she may not fully grasp the concept of playing with other dogs, she loves to snuggle up to them.     Sweet Tart is known around the house for her slobbery kisses and will gladly climb onto your lap with her bulky body. With her stubborn and delightfully demanding bulldog personality, she's not afraid to bark and demand her meals when she thinks they're overdue. Her tongue is always hanging out, adding to her irresistibly cute appearance, especially when combined with her adorable underbite.    And if that's not enough, she also comes with the bonus of mystery allergies-thanks to some Benadryl it is easily controlled.     This sweet old gal has come a long way, and we're thrilled to see her find the loving home she deserves after all this time. If you are interested in adopting Sweet Tart, please fill out an application today!August 17, 2024, 9:42 pm

Story
Calling all introverts! Tyson knows how you feel. He is a squishy love muffin with people he is comfortable with. He is usually a perfect gentleman with respectful new people. In his last home, however, he felt the dread of stranger danger and nipped a time or two. He doesn't want to hurt anyone. He is just easily startled by the exuberant extroverts of this world and sometimes he just needs a little space and time. He has lived with another dog. He has also enjoyed buddy walks with some of the other introvert dogs here at the shelter. Come see if you and Tyson are kindred spirits. We promise to give you space and time for that love to bloom, just like Tyson likes it.

Story
Hello, I’m Hazel, a 5-year-old American Bulldog mix with a white and tan coat and a big smile. I’m a playful and sweet girl who loves to have fun and cuddle with my people. I’m spayed, vaccinated, and heartworm negative. I’m house and crate trained, but I need some help learning to walk better on a leash. I get so excited to go for walks, and I’m very strong which means I can pull hard. I need an owner who can handle me and teach me some manners. I’m good with older children and other dogs, especially mellow ones. We don’t know how I feel about cats, but I can be cat-tested if you want. I have a lot of energy and I like to run around and play with balls. But I also like to relax and nap in my own space. I have a large kennel where I feel comfortable and safe. I don’t like to be outdoors for too long, I prefer to be inside with my people. I’m afraid of being abandoned, so I don’t like to go far from home. I have some digestive issues, so I need a special diet of lamb and rice. I also need to be crated when I’m not supervised, because I can chew on things. I’m a big girl, about 77 pounds, and I can be clumsy sometimes. I would not do well with small kids, because I might knock them over. But if you are used to large dogs, you will love me. I’m a gentle giant who just wants to be loved. I have a lot of potential and I’m ready to show you what a great dog I can be. I’m being fostered in New Kent, VA but I can be transported to other states for the right home. If you think you are the one for me, please fill out an application and let’s meet. Must be at least 21 years old to apply. I can’t wait to see you!

Story
Hey there, it's me, Harley! I'm a young, goofy, and affectionate lady with a funny personality and a loving heart. I'm new here at the shelter, but I'm already winning everyone over with my big smile and chunky physique. They say I might be a boxer or bulldog mix, but who knows? All I know is that I love snacks and I'm very food motivated! I really loved these things called pup cups the volunteers let me try recently. I'm a friendly girl who loves attention and I would love to find a forever family to call my own. I'm forever happy and my tail is non-stop wagging with my boundless excitement! I haven't yet been dog-tested, so the shelter isn't sure if I want to play with other pups, but they'll update you all when they do! If you're looking for a sweet and playful companion who loves food as much as you do, then look no further! Come and meet me today - we'll have a blast together and I promise to give you lots of kisses and snuggles. If you're interested in adopting me, please visit the shelter to get to know me better. I can't wait to meet you and start our new adventure together!

Story
Hi there, I'm Meatball! I'm a young, male dog with lots of love to give and plenty of energy to burn. I'm brand new to the shelter, so the people are still getting to know me and my personality. I'm a friendly and affectionate pup, but I'm also curious, playful, athletic, and a bit goofy! I'm very loyal and love my people, but I could use some work on my walking manners when on a leash (I get a little excited and tend to pull to sniff and the exciting smells). I love my food, and I know the "sit" command if you have the right treats to motivate me! I'm really a good boy with lots of love to give, and I'm sure to entertain with my massive meaty head and goofy antics! If you're looking for a funny and loyal companion, come meet me today! I can't wait to find my forever home. If you're interested in Meatball, visit the shelter or send an email to adoptpetersburg@gmail.com and include "Meatball" in the subject line.
