Adult Bulldog Application

 

Please note: the dogs are not being placed on a first come first serve basis. We are placing the dog in the home that we feel will be the best fit for the dog. There is an adoption fee.  Adoptable Bulldogs are being placed as pets, not breeders.  They are being placed with a pet contract. If for any reason you no longer want the dog or can no longer keep the dog he/she must be returned. 

 

Please note that we do not place adult Bulldogs into households with small children unless otherwise specified (households with older children may be considered). This is because we feel this is in the best interest of the dog and the children. Puppies fit much better into a home with small children, than an adult Bulldog does (especially one that is not familiar with a home setting with small children). Please note whether you are adding an adult dog or a puppy to your home/family that it is very important that your children understand what is and is not okay to do to/with the dog/puppy, how to and not to interact with the dog/puppy, etc.

​

Just a general reminder about our adult Bulldogs available for adoption (not specific our currently available adult Bulldogs).

​

When we have an adult Bulldog come available for adoption this is one of our retired show dogs - not a rescue from somewhere else, not a dog who has been mistreated/neglected/abused/ unwanted etc. This is a dog who has always had a home, has been well cared for, and will continue to have a home here with us and will be continued to be cared for. There is no rush/deadline for the dog to get a home. The dog will not just go to the first person who inquires, but the person/family who will be a good fit. The first step is to fill out the application on our website. If the application process should go well, and you adopt the dog, but then the dog does not fit into your family/home then you are to return her. There is a nonrefundable adoption fee.

​

​

Please note that we do not place adult Bulldogs into households with small children (households with older children may be considered). This is because we feel this is in the best interest of the dog and the child/children. Puppies fit much better into a home with small children, than an adult Bulldog does. Please note whether you are adding an adult dog or a puppy to your home/family that it is very important that your children understand what is and is not okay to do to/with the dog/puppy, how to and not to interact with the dog/puppy, etc.

​

​

Please also take note that we no longer place adult dogs into households with other dogs. This does not mean that our dogs are not social with other dogs its just what we feel is best due to a bad past experience in placing a dog into a household that already had a dog. While you may have a dog or dog(s) who might seem social with other dogs out in public whether to be a walk throughout the neighborhood, play time at the dog park or with friend/family member/ neighbor's dog - things can be much different when actually bringing another dog to live in your home and share with your dog(s). Adult dogs do not always accept other adult dogs into their home. A lot of times adult dogs do not want to share their bed, toys, bones, or owner's attention, etc with a new adult dog. We do feel puppies fit much better into a home that already has adult dog(s).

​

​

Not all dogs are fond of cats so we do not normally place dogs in homes that have cats.

​

​

Please also take note - if you have not already read through our information we are located in Fleetwood, PA. Bulldogs will not be shipped. Potential new owners must pick up here in Fleetwood, PA.

Please take the time to read through our website if you have not already.

 

By filling out this application it will help to give us an idea of whether or not an adoptable Bulldog of ours may or may not be a good fit for you and your family. After receiving your application we will e-mail you back. If we think it may possibly be a good fit we will also contact you shortly after for an interview over the phone. 

 

Information on what dog(s) are currently adoptable or may be in the near future as well as adoption information can be obtained by contacting us (along with submission of adoption application).
