Retired to Rescue

A small LV based rescue focusing on finding homes for retired bulldogs to live their happy ever after

🚨One again, We desperately need your help 🚨

In just the past week, we’ve taken in an overwhelming number of dogs in need. We accepted the 26 breeder surrenders that we previously posted about. Majority went to the 4 amazing rescues that stepped up but we ended up keeping 6, who are now all in foster homes🙏. The next day, we took in 4 more Frenchies we had already committed to from a California breeder. And just two days ago, we welcomed a tiny micro-bully mama and her 8-week-old baby, now named Lilo by her foster. ♥️

Our micro-bully mama needs a foster or foster-to-adopt home for her recovery journey. She will require palate surgery when spayed and needs a home comfortable caring for her post op.
Lilo, who was born with hydrocephalus, has shown some signs of possible seizure activity and will need close monitoring and likely a neurology visit.

On top of all this, we need to spay and neuter every one of these dogs, catch up on their vaccines, and provide any other urgent health treatments, including an eye ulcer, others with severe ear infections, and some with skin issues. Supplies, vet visits, surgeries—these costs are mounting, and we simply can’t keep up.

Without more funding, we won’t be able to continue rescuing dogs at risk in shelters. Every single donation matters. Even $5 today can make a huge difference. 🙏

Please, if you’re able to give, donate via the link below. Together, we can keep fighting for these precious lives. Thank you for being part of this mission and for the overwhelming community support we have encountered over this past week. We quite literally could not do this without you! ♥️

🐾 Meet Scrunch! 🐾

His name says it all—this squishy, scrunchy, munchy, mushy baby is looking for a foster! 😍

Scrunch is about 1 year old and was part of our recent 26-dog rescue. He’s still a bit timid and unsure, which is totally understandable with all the new experiences he’s taking in. While he needs a little guidance, he’s already learned how to use the doggie door and is working on his potty training.

Scrunch is both dog and human friendly and recently discovered his love for toys! Watching him run around and play brings him so much joy. 🥰

📍 If you’d like to foster this adorable face, please fill out an application at www.retiredtorescue.org. If you’re already an approved foster, just send us a message!

Help us give Scrunch the warm and patient home he deserves. 💙

📢 Welcome Yeti! 🐾✨ This adorable 1-year-old cream Merle Frenchie with the most stunning eyes is looking for a foster home! 🤍

Yeti was surrendered to us this past weekend, and he’s the sweetest little guy. He’s got a gentle demeanor, loves other dogs, is great with kids, and will follow you everywhere! Now that he has his freedom, he’s learning to be a dog, exploring his surroundings and picking up new skills every day.

He’s already starting to learn the doggie door and making progress on potty training. With a little guidance, this smart boy will have it down in no time! 🐶✨

📍 If you’d like to foster Yeti, please fill out an application at www.retiredtorescue.org. If you’re already an approved foster, just send us a message!

Let’s help Yeti find the perfect foster home where he can keep exploring and growing. 🏡💫

And another forever or foster needed immediately 🤍🙏🏻

🌋Lava🌋

This 4-5 month old super mutt is ready to melt your heart! With her stunning brindle coat, Lava is a mix of… maybe bully? Maybe pitty? Maybe pug? What do you think? 🤔 No matter her blend, one thing’s for sure—Lava is an absolute sweetheart! 💕

She’s crate trained, potty trained with a dog door, and super smart. Lava’s playful, with a fun rough-and-tumble play style, so she’d do best in a home with another playful, dog-friendly companion. At about 22 pounds, she’s on the smaller side but filled with affection and love to give. 🐶💖

Lava is fully vetted and ready to find her forever home! We do adopt out of state, but adopters must pick her up in Las Vegas (she’s too big to fly under the seat). 🚗

Adoption donation is $500 which includes full vetting, crate, food, bed, leash collar and harness.
If you’re interested in making Lava part of your family, fill out an application through the link in our bio or at www.retiredtorescue.org! 🏡

Foster or Fovever! Sig needs placement as soon as possible, would you consider opening your arms & heart and give this boy a chance 🙏🏻

💙 Meet Sig! 💙

This sweet little Frenchton (Frenchie/Boston Terrier mix) came to us in heartbreaking condition after being found as a stray in California. He was extremely skinny, had hair loss, and is incontinent. But since coming under our care, Sig has made an incredible recovery—he now looks amazing and feels even better! 💪✨

Sig is the most affectionate boy you’ll ever meet. 🥰All he wants is to be with his person, cuddling on their lap and soaking up all the love. ❤️ He weighs 20 pounds and, despite his incontinence (possibly due to spina bifida), he’s super easy to care for with the help of a diaper or belly band. He doesn’t need help expressing his bladder, he just doesn’t realize when he’s going!

Sig is dog and cat friendly but mostly prefers to be with his person. He’ll play with other pets now and then but really, cuddles are his priority! He is also crate trained🐾

This little lovebug needs a foster or forever home to call his own. If you can open your heart to Sig, please fill out an adoption or foster application via the link in our bio or at www.retiredtorescue.org.

Sig’s adoption donation is $250 which includes all his vetting, crate, bed food, leash, collar and harness. 💙

💋 Clifford💋

This sweet boy came to us from the shelter’s euth list due to severe double cherry eyes, but thanks to surgery and lots of love, Clifford is now on the mend and doing amazing! His eyes are still recovering, but he’s already showing his true, sweet self. ❤️

Clifford is about 1-2 years old, and he’s one of the most affectionate dogs you’ll ever meet. While he’s a little shy around quick movements, especially from larger men, he absolutely loves everyone he meets. He’s potty trained with a dog door, he can go in a crate if needed but he’d rather just be by your side, he is just overall a very good boy. 🐶

Clifford is super dog-friendly, loves kids, and is even cat-friendly! He’s looking for a forever home where he can get all the love and cuddles he deserves.

Clifford’s adoption donation is $750 which includes all of his vetting, crate, bed, food, leash collar and harness.

🐾 $5 Friday for Two Very Special Pups in Need 🐾

We couldn’t turn away from two precious souls needing urgent help. Meet our new intakes:

💔 Puppy #1- An unbelievably heartbreaking case of a two-day-old, double cleft lip and palate, possible Frenchie, found abandoned in a plastic bag in a dumpster. By sheer luck, this dumpster was near a vets office who heard his cries, rescued him, and reached out for our support. This tiny warrior still needs a name—drop your suggestions in the comments!

💔 Monet - An 11-week-old female XL American Bully, surrendered to us with a foot deformity. Monet has two extra toes, one on the webbing and one on the side of her foot, causing leg tremors and limping. The vet recommends surgery, but before we can move forward, she needs an X-ray to confirm the structure of her foot.

We are maxed out financially but couldn’t turn these babies away. We have a surge of Frenchies coming in this weekend needing rescue, and we need your help to keep saving these bulldogs who deserve a second chance. These dogs are being discarded literally like trash every single day and we are picking up the pieces. 😩

If you can donate today, even if just $5, it would mean the world to these puppies and to our rescue efforts. Every dollar adds up and makes a difference!

🆘 🤍 🆘 🤍 🆘 We need a foster!!!

She had a place to land and we have not heard back!!

We went and met this sweet baby yesterday and decided it was time to bail her out 🥹 we pick her up tomorrow at 5:30pm but we need to give a place to land!

She seems to be dog friendly through interaction with another dog at the shelter, she seeks attention but desperately needs a good scruba-dub! 🛁

If you previously fostered for us, please reach out! #

If you have not fostered for us before, please fill out the application here www.retiredtorescue.org

‼️We cannot accept this dog until we have foster placement‼️

This is Buster. His breeder has reached out to us, looking to downsize.

Buster is beyond adorable but he has been a breeder dog for the whole 3 years of his life so he needs someone dedicated to show him the ropes of living in a home, getting love and being a pet like he deserves.

Buster is crate trained and potty trained with a dog door but he will need to wear a belly band as he gains some consistency and we will look to get him neutered asap.

We will consider out of state foster (with no other pets) but he will need to be neutered first and you will have to come get him from Las Vegas, NV.

Buster would be best as an only dog but could live with a female dog (locally). No male dogs in the home.

This guy just so desperately wants to be loved and be a part of a family.

We provide all supplies to fosters for Buster.

If you are able to foster Buster please fill out a foster application via the link in our bio or on our website

🐾 Take em home Tuesday!🐾

🦜Birdee🦜

Birdee is a sweet 15-week-old bully pup who found herself at our local shelter after being picked up as a stray. Now she’s on the lookout for a foster-to-adopt home! 🏡
This 26-pound bundle of joy is crate-trained, dog-friendly, and non-reactive to cats. Birdee’s playful personality would shine in a home with another dog to romp around with. She’s full of energy and enthusiasm, so a home with kids over 5 years old would be best, as she can be a little rough and tumble at times. She is also incredibly affectionate ♥️
Birdee is ready for someone who will show her how to be the best pup she can be. If you think you can provide her with the love and care she deserves, apply to adopt Birdee via the links in our bio or on our website today!

Please share 🙏
Let’s find this sweet girl her perfect home! 💕

🐪 Guess what day it is?! Happy No More Hump Day! 🐪 Guido here to give you a friendly reminder: spay and neuter your pets! Spaying and neutering isn’t just about avoiding “oops” litters—it’s a crucial step in tackling the heartbreaking overpopulation crisis. So many dogs and cats are waiting in overcrowded shelters, with many losing their lives daily simply because there aren’t enough homes. But that’s not all! This simple procedure also helps prevent costly, life-threatening health issues like cancers, pyometra, and other reproductive-related illnesses. We all want our fur babies to live longer, healthier lives, right? ❤️🐾 💰 Help us fundraise for our newest rescues from the past weekend. Every dollar raised goes toward the essential vet care they need, so they never have to worry about health risks or being used for breeding. Together, we can give them the fresh start they deserve! 🙌 #AdoptDontShop #SpayAndNeuter #RescueRevolution #DogRescue #SaveALife

When you’re out of that breeder life and on to the good life🥰🥰🥰🥰 Iris is one of the 4 frenchies we accepted from a breeder in California this weekend IN ADDITION to the 26 we accepted in Las Vegas.💔 But this…. This makes the whole insane weekend worth it. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Update on the 26 frenchies Requirements to foster We need 3 more fosters in the Las Vegas area immediately. 4-6 week commitment rescue provides all supplies and needed vet care. Other ways to help. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

LAS VEGAS, HELP ME! I’m beyond exhausted and do not have it in me to write a long post or deal with anyone’s suggestions or opinions about shutting breeders down etc. We agreed to take 10-15 frenchies from a breeder yesterday. I had placement for 13. They showed up with 26. Only some are in this video. I need immediate rescue placement for 7 dogs. 5 girls and 2 boys. I have possible placement with another rescue later this week or next Monday but I CANNOT keep these dogs at my house. I am already completely overwhelmed with the fosters I have and no one stepping up to foster or replying to my emails and texts about fostering after they apply. If you can foster a frenchie for a week (or longer) I NEED YOU NOW. Please🙏🙏🙏🙏 I need to place these dogs tomorrow. If you’ve applied to foster before please send us a message, if not and you want to help please fill out a foster application via the linktree in our bio THEN MESSAGE US. PLEASE SHARE🙏🙏🙏🙏 😩😩😩😩😩😩😩
