South of the Bully & Friends

Welcome to SOTB! These are the new kids on the block, who were saved from our shelter partners thanks to selfless fosters who opened their hearts and homes. Keep an eye on our socials as we share more about these beautiful dogs in the next few weeks.

Breezy is a kind and gentle soul who's not quite sure what to make of the big world, but she's willing to try this "go for a walk" thing if that's what her foster wants to do. She's somewhere around 4 years old and 45lbs, she's quiet and non-destructive, housebroken, crate trained and very, very chill. She gets along with other dogs, has been kind to the kids she's met, and would probably be fine with a cat, but we'd need to test to be sure.

Breezy landed at the shelter with her grown daughter, they were both terrified and had very likely never left the yard of wherever they came from until they were dropped off. We're guessing Breezy as a retriever and hunting dog mix of some kind, though truthfully the only thing she's shown any interest in hunting is a cozy spot on the couch.

Breezy would love to find some people who need a dog to lay by the fire or cozy up to with a good book. She's going to hold her cards close when she meets you, but once she feel safe and opens up she's an absolute love. Our foster asked us for easy and chill this time, Breezy checks those boxes completely. If you're looking for a gentle, affectionate dog who doesn't ask for much out of life, Breezy may be the girl for you.

Visit southofthebully.com and fill out an adoption application, we can't wait to see who gets to take home this lovely gal.

Nothing better than a dog who matches the colors of the season! You're going to FALL in love with pretty Mango. Like any young pup, she's eager to learn and ready to play; but loves to show her snuggly side too. Mango is super social, and ready for the pumpkin patch, hay ride or a crisp afternoon on the brewery patio.

How well can you read your dog?
Understanding body language creates a stronger bond between you and your pup; and enables you to avoid conflicts when your dog is anxious or uncomfortable.
