Insta @thebullpenrescue FB https://www.facebook.com/BullpenRescue TikTok: @bullpenrescue Lovely Laurel is looking for her forever family, and wants her new people to know these 10 things about her: 1. I am a Mastador (short for Mastiff mixed with Labrador). I am about 3 years old and I weigh 100lbs. 2. Before rescue, nobody ever cared about me.  My old owners didn’t even bother to give me a name- they just called me “Girl.”  Then I was surrendered to a shelter in rural South Carolina with 6 of my puppies.  The shelter tried to do the right thing and find us rescue as a family, but every rescue that the shelter contacted either said no, or said they would take my puppies but that they couldn’t help me.  As a result, we all sat there for months and months until finally the Bullpen stepped up and said, “Let the puppies go to another rescue, and we will help the mamma.” Can you believe it? They picked me!! 3. I am a very sweet pup, and I like almost everyone I meet.  I know I would do well in a home with children over 10, as long as they weren’t too loud or rambunctious and had some previous experience/training with big dogs. 4. I’m not sure how I feel about other big dogs.  Mostly I ignore them, but I’ve been grumpy with some of the other residents through the fence here.  Maybe if my new home had a large, laid-back male it wouldn’t be too bad, but I also wouldn’t mind being the center of attention! 5. I haven’t had any interaction with small or medium sized dogs at the rescue, so to be on the safe side, it would probably be best if my forever family didn’t have these kinds of pets. 6. My only experience with cats since arriving at the sanctuary is the occasional sighting of a barn cat, so I can’t say for sure if a feline-friendly home is right for me. 7. The words that best describe me are spirited, playful, and affectionate. My favorite thing to do are giving kisses, playing with toys, and napping on my bed. 8. I am housebroken, and I am learning how to walk politely on a leash. I know basic obedience and I’ve already mastered the dog door! 9. I am fully vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped. 10. I am heartworm positive, but I’ve started treatment, and will come with all the medicine needed to complete it at my new home. Ready to give Laurel the forever home of her dreams?

We highly recommend that our potential adopters fill out an online application as soon as possible, as it greatly expedites the process of finding the right dog for your situation. Our dogs are available for adoption nationwide but preference is given to adopters willing to do an in-person meeting.
