Story

Baxter, born on August 17, 2021, is a lovable Bulldog-Staffy mix with a heart of gold. His affectionate nature knows no bounds as he showers love on everyone he meets! Baxter's friendly demeanor extends to his interactions with other dogs both big and small, making him a great companion for canine playdates. With impeccable manners, Baxter is both potty-trained and crate-trained, showcasing his reliability and responsibility. On walks, he effortlessly walks by your side, never pulling on the leash, making every stroll a joyous experience. Baxter's endearing personality and well-mannered disposition will make him an invaluable member of any family! The suggested adoption fee for Baxter is $315. Bullies-N-Beyond is a 501(c)3, non-profit corporation that is 100% volunteer operated. Adoption donation fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. All dogs adopted through BNBR will have been administered their age appropriate vaccines which may include DHPP, Rabies, Lepto and Bordetella. All dogs will also be adopted out as already altered if of age, for those not of age, a voucher will be provided. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver. BNBR does not adopt on a first serve basis. All available dogs are adopted based on their needs to provide the best fit home. ##1972924##

Gumdrop

Chihuahua

Female, Adult

Omaha, NE

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with cats,

Story

Gumdrop is about 4 years old and around 6lbs. She was found as a stray so we are not 100% sure. She is a sweet girl that wants nothing more to be right on your lap and getting all your love. She is fine with other dogs but will tell them to get away when she is getting her love and attention from you. Housetraining is on going but getting better now that she is on a routine. She ignores the cat in the foster home. She might be a bit much for small kids. To help pay for vet bills and care (transportation, food, toys, etc..) a $300 donation is requested at the time of adoption. All of our adoptions are contingent upon an approved application, home visit, reference check, obedience training agreement, and signing of adoption contract. All our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped before adoption. Our dogs are companion animals that live indoors as part of your family. Please do not apply if your plan is to have them as outside dogs, garage dogs, porch dogs or outside kennel dogs. We do not ship dogs. All of our dogs are in private foster homes. We are not a shelter with hours. A visit can be arranged after an adoption questionnaire has been filled out and sent in. Please try to email first. We are all volunteers that work so we can not easily take or make phone calls.June 16, 2025, 11:29 am

Good with dogs, Good with cats,

Story

Haven was found as a stray and very nervous at the local shelter. She is scared of new people and will hide behind the one she knows until she knows you are safe. That is getting better but still takes a minute. The vet things about 2-3 but she sure does have a lot of puppy play in her. She is fine with other dogs and cats (wants to play). Haven will play with toys and your hands and just loves life now that she knows she is safe. Since she is nervous with new people small kids would not be a match for her. She loves attention but that sometimes turns into playful hand mouthing. She is working on housetraining it is getting better now that she is on a routine. Haven is about 10 lbs. To help pay for vet bills and care (transportation, food, toys, etc..) a $250 donation is requested at the time of adoption. All of our adoptions are contingent upon an approved application, home visit, reference check, obedience training agreement, and signing of adoption contract.

Story

I am moving and take my dog Needs a good home I have a red healer. Her name is Molly. I have had her for some time. I promised her forever but unfortunately my life has taken a turn. Molly is precious. She will let you know if someone is coming but other then that, as long as she has a favorite place to lay she is pretty much a chill dog. Due to me moving, which I absolutely have to do, I am unable to take my precious Molly with me. She is easy to care for. I know she loves to go outside and hangout so a fenced yard would be great. I understand that there will separation anxiety for her and myself I don't want to hurt her in anyway but I must move. All this precious girl needs is love. Water food and a place to lay her head. Molly's attitude is sometimes she likes to know what's going on but mostly she has a cute I don't care attitude. Please if you can find it in your home and especially in your heart, can you give this girl a home with love for her to call her new home. Thank yo
