Bumper is an incredibly energetic boy who needs a house with a yard.. The bigger, the better! He absolutely cannot be in an apartment or townhome due to his energy level. Bumper needs his pack. He loves to play with his fellow furry friends and he will howl if left alone. In case it wasn't already made clear, Bumper is very very energetic. He gets along well with the two female English Bulldogs in his foster home, but he does not mesh well with the male resident dog in his foster home.
Bumper is making progress, but he will need someone willing to work with him on potty training and his rough play. He loves to go for walks, but will sometimes go on strike as Bulldogs often do. Bumper needs chew toys if you'd like to keep your furniture, blankets, and rugs! In true puppy fashion, if he is left alone he WILL chew. He is put in his playpen when his foster family leaves. If he is left out, his new owner will likely be unhappily surprised with what they find when they come home.
Bumper needs and craves lots of love. He needs a family who likes to go, go, go!

While in foster care, all our dogs are thoroughly vetted. Any discovered medical issues will be disclosed above. Our Lucky Bulldogs (and their smushie-faced buddies) are cleared by their vet for adoption prior to us accepting applications. All our dogs will be up to date on Rabies & DHPP vaccinations, up to date on Heartworm preventative after a negative Heartworm test, and spayed or neutered prior to being adopted out to their forever homes. Often times, our dogs are given dentals and sometimes nare-widening surgery if needed while under anesthesia. All surgical and medical history we have will be shared with adopters. Further details can be discussed with the foster volunteer during the phone interview for the applications that are chosen to proceed to the phone interview part of the adoption process.
All our dogs are crate trained unless otherwise noted on their "All About" pages.

We will accept applications for our available dogs for 1-2 weeks except in cases of overwhelming popularity where we may stop accepting new applicants sooner. Once we have stopped accepting applications, we will review them and proceed with a phone call with our top two applications to chat about the dog being applied for, go over the adoption process, and answer any questions the potential adopter has. After phone calls take place, we will decide on our top applicant choice and proceed to contact them to schedule a home visit (in person or via video chat), and check vet and personal references before the adoption is ready to be completed. This process can take up to 6 weeks.
