L.S.B.R. Goals:
To accept Bulldogs whose owners can no longer keep them
To retrieve Bulldogs from shelters or any other source so they may live to see another day
To find responsible, stable, loving new homes for all rescued Bulldogs
To only place Bulldogs that have been 100% neutered or spayed, to help reduce the population of unwanted pets, by having the necessary surgical procedures performed before placement
To rehabilitate Bulldogs before placement by providing necessary medical treatment and training to increase the chances of successful placement
To place Bulldogs in suitable homes as soon as reasonably possible, so they can start their "new lives" quickly
To thoroughly screen applicants before making placement decisions
To inform prospective adopters about the rescue program and the requirements for taking care of Bulldogs

Bulldog Spotlight:
Gucci
This is a story about a little girl. A sweet bully who has captured many hearts and makes you believe in the goodness of what it means to have and love a bulldog. Gucci came to Lone Star Bulldog Rescue with a situation that made us all love her instantly. There was a big older "sister" in the house who liked to beat up on little Gucci. Her family felt like she deserved a friend to play with, not hide from.
You see, sweet Gucci is not like any other bully. Yes, she has the same quirky and unique characteristics of a bulldog, but Gucci is special. She has a mild spinal atrophy birth defect. She has a hard time holding her potty at night and needs to wear a diaper a night or will have accidents. She is controlled with a strict feeding schedule. The lucky family who adopts Gucci needs to understand her needs and to have wonderful patience as they figure out the best process to help Gucci be comfortable. She will do best with a person who is home and a doggie door would be a plus.

Surrendering Your Pet:
Before you surrender your bulldog, have you considered these options?
Contact a dog trainer, there are many things that can be resolved by just a lesson or two from a good trainer. If you need a recommendation for trainers in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, we will be happy to assist you.
If your dog is barking, biting or acting in an unusual manner, he/she may have an undiagnosed medical condition. Have your dog checked by a good Bulldog Vet, we have references for veterinarians that have extension knowledge of bulldogs.
If you feel that you still must give up your dog, we would prefer that you have him/her up to date on shots, spayed/neutered and on heart worm preventive. This helps us defray the costs of taking your dog into our program. If you are unable to do these things, please contact us and we will work out some arrangements.
We can only take "English Bulldogs", absolutely no other types, i.e. American Bulldogs, Pitbulls, etc. Use this link to help you determine if your dog is actually an "English" Bulldog.
