Foster Pumpkin 's Story

Foster or Foster-to-Adopt Needed: Meet Pumpkin! <br/><br/>Pumpkin came to our rescue from Mississippi in early 2025 after spending her life being used for multiple litters. She arrived in rough shape, but with love and care in her foster home, she has made wonderful progress and blossomed into a sweet companion. Unfortunately, due to unexpected life circumstances, her current family must rehome her — and she now needs a new foster or foster-to-adopt home.<br/><br/>Pumpkin is a 4.5 year-old bulldog who is spayed and up to date on all vaccinations. She was previously potty trained, but after a recent move to an apartment, she’s still adjusting to the new routine and may need some patience and consistency as she relearns.<br/><br/>Pumpkin does resource guard her humans around food, so she should be crated during mealtimes to help her feel comfortable and avoid issues. She also has typical bulldog skin needs — her folds should be wiped regularly, and she benefits from frequent baths. A home familiar with bulldogs (or willing to learn about the breed) would be ideal for her continued success.<br/><br/>The rescue provides everything you need to foster:<br/>• Leash & collar<br/>• Crate<br/>• Bowls & food<br/>• Heartworm prevention<br/>• Flea & tick prevention<br/><br/>Foster families also receive first choice to adopt before the dog is made available to the public.
