Did someone say puppies… 9 to be exact! 🐶

These babies were an unwanted litter (mom and dad have both been neutered), and headed to a not good fate, had our own Momma D not picked them up yesterday. Thank you Diana for your giantic heart and refusal to say no to to this family. Welcome to Bully Up, cuties! 💙🩷

Thank you to Union Park Animal Hospital for seeing all 9 on short notice yesterday and to Eastman’s Escape for their willingness to foster them until we can find other fosters or fosters to adopt.

Puppies aren’t cheap - donations are desperately needed so that they can receive the best care possible 🙏🏼

🚨 FOSTERS NEEDED 🚨

We are really feeling hopeless lately 💔 We hardly get any foster offers recently. We need two fosters for our last 2 boys in boarding. They get amazing care with Diversity K9 Dog Training, but we need them in homes.

We have closed intakes indefinitely until we can get them both placed. Who can help? Please share. Fostering is FREE - we cover ALL costs. Please see Skully & Gunnar’s bios here: https://bullyuprescuecrew.wixsite.com/bullyuprescue/adoptable-dogs

Bugz Update 🩵 Our sweet guy is a northerner now ❄️ His amazing family just loves him and he’s definitely the “prince” of the castle. He’s not sure about the snow yet, but loves his walkies and finding sticks along the way. He’s done great with family visiting, and just loves his toys and comfy bed. We love getting updates and we wanted to share as we know he’s got a big fan club out there 🥹

Sunshine Update! ☀️ Happy Friday 🧡

Our sweet girl is doing amazing! She is slowly gaining weight, loves her bed, and literally just the SWEETEST little girl. She will be seen by our vet next week for overall check, vaccines and scheduling of spay once medically cleared.

We are looking for a more permanent foster family soon. Can anyone help? Dog, cat, kid and everything friendly - she is literally doggy perfection 🥹 she ADORES her kitty friend right now, loves bathing 👅 kitty- so if you have a cat, they must love doggie attention.

🚨Chess UPDATE🚨 Please READ in entirety. Today I had to make a decision based in faith. I spent my morning doing phone consultations trying to find a surgeon that would even do this surgery. The ones that would were 15k and up. Triple what I had planned for. We were the only rescue that considered taking Chess, which left me with the decision to either let the shelter euthanize him or take on an extremely financial burden. Most of you know once i even semi commit to a dog I follow through. Chess is no different, so we pulled him. Now here is where my faith steps in. He is currently hospitalized at AVC. Dr. Samson will perform a 7 hour surgery tomorrow to repair 2 of his fractures on his right side. A pelvic and femur fracture that will involve plates and screw. This FIRST surgery is $7,809-$9,011 (invoice attached in pictures). He then will perform a SECOND surgery on Tuesday for the 3rd and 4th fractures on his left side. The cost of the second surgery will be around the same price as this one resulting in $14-16k costs. He then will have 2-3 months of cage rest and hopefully the last fracture will heal on its on, if not he’ll need a 3rd surgery. I can’t express this enough, WE REALLY NEED EVERYONES HELP HERE! Please If you PLEDGED yesterday or are able to contribute we need the first $7800 raised by tomorrow morning. If you are not able to donate that’s okay, please SHARE! There IS power in sharing! I DO believe we can get this done! Despite his awful condition Chess is a VERY sweet boy. He has an amazing temperament and just wants to be loved on. I have no doubt he’s probably somebody’s dog. He’s extremely healthy besides these injuries. If you recognize him please send us a DM. Please honor pledges or donate one of the following ways-

There’s some dogs that we post and we are certain we will have multiple apps. Chloe is one of them 🩷 But oddly, we’ve received none for this perfect girl 🤯

From her foster family: This sweet mama was surrendered to the shelter with her nine puppies back in October. Her puppies all found families of their own, and Chloe hopes that soon it will be her turn. Although a little shy with strangers at first, Chloe quickly warms up. She makes a great weighted blanket and scores a 10 out of 10 on the cuddleability score. Chloe is also a talker. She mumbles and grumbles and looks at you intently for a response. She loves words of affirmation and wiggles her entire b***y when you tell her how special she is (and she really is a rare gem). She has started gently tugging on our clothing to get our attention and we all get a kick out of her silly antics. Chloe is also amazing with other dogs and enjoys finding lizards, playing chase, and tug of war with all her friends. We call Chloe an “energy matcher”. She’s up for anything you want to do whether that’s a nice walk, car ride, or training session or a Netflix, pajama, cuddle session. Prior to being abandoned at the shelter, Chloe lived outdoors so having a home is going to be extra special to this sweet girl and having a furever family to love her is going to be something this pup hasn’t had the opportunity to experience but is so deserving of.

Chloe is about 3 years old, 45-50lbs, spayed, up to date on shots, microchipped, potty trained; kid and dog friendly. Cats unknown. If interested in adopting, please complete our application: https://form.jotform.com/bullyuprescuecrew/adoption-application

Update: Chloe’s adoption fee has been graciously sponsored by Great Florida Insurance. Thank you 🙏🏽

Welcome to Bully Up, Brownie! 🤎🐾🐶

This sweet girl got her Freedom Ride out of Orange County Animal Services yesterday! 🚙🎉🥳 The smile on her face says it all. 🥰

She's settling in with her foster and getting some much needed TLC and R&R. She's going to the vet tomorrow for a full workup!

This Golden Girl's going to have the best that life has to offer in her Retirement ❤️

Sunshine ☀️ Update (aka Sunnie 💛) Thank you to everyone who donated towards her ER care 🙏🏽 We are so grateful for your support.

Sunnie was released from ER last night and doing great. She was being closely monitored for an obstruction due to the amount of foreign objects (bones and trash) in her little belly. Luckily her X-rays showed movement in her intestines and she’s had big 💩 this morning. She’s being treated for malnourishment, hookworms, ear infection, also HW+ and will need to be spayed. Regardless, she is the sweetest little girl. She loves affection. It’s sad to think what she’s been through fending for herself, but only good life from here on out.

She will be going to a temp foster today and we will need a more long term foster ASAP. She is very friendly to all. If you can help, please apply: https://form.jotform.com/bullyuprescuecrew/foster-application

🚨 Urgent Donations Needed 🚨 Pup found collapsed on side of rural road

We are currently at the ER with this sweet girl. One of our volunteers saw her struggling on side of road and brought her to us. We would appreciate any donations for her care. We are awaiting assessment by vet. We will update once more is known.

This pup, now known as Sunshine ☀️ looks to have old infections, very strong smells of infection, lethargic and underweight. She was found in this area around 4:30pm: https://maps.app.goo.gl/CSJZtcdAsNFT39z59?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy

If you have any information about this pup, please message us. She is not chipped.

Foster Needed - 13 yr old sweet gal in need 💔😢 (dog friendly)

The shelter is no place for this sweetheart and we’d love to help her. Can anyone open their home to foster her? We don’t know how much longer she has, but we’d love to give her the retirement she’s always deserved filled with comfy beds, fuzzy blankets, hand delivered treatos and belly rubs. Shelter volunteers say she’s a doll baby, walks well on leash, has some s***k too. **We have no info on her interactions with cats and the shelter can’t cat test**

See her shelter notes below.

A558654 - This dog is a spayed female. This dog is currently located in WD34. This dog weighs approximately 42.1 lbs.,is 13Y and has tested positive for heartworm disease. This dog is being posted to rescue due to other reasons.

Brownie has been at the shelter for almost 3 months now! She is a friendly old girl and has been easily paired with other dogs.
Brownie was part of a cruelty confiscation where 35-40 dogs were found in a property in very poor condition.

Assessment of 01/10/2025: ABC 175 pulled A558654 for outing. A558654 allowed leashing easily and walked well on leash. In the yard, A558654 was aloof and explored independently at first. After some time, A558654 sought social with 175 and climbed in handler’s lap. A558654 rolled over onto the back and accepted belly rubs. Very affectionate. No issues presented.

OVER 300 DAYS… in boarding and no one has offered to foster Skully 💔 Will someone give him a chance?

Skully’s story book 📖 He previously lived with another dog, but since that separation, he has become uncomfortable around other animals. Perhaps out of fear, or confusion - it’s possible he could live with other animals in the future, but for right now - he needs to be the only pet in the home.

Skully is not reactive to other dogs on leash, in fact, he has taken walks with other dogs and done amazing. We just feel it’s safest for him if he’s king of his castle and gets to enjoy his human on a solo basis. He DESERVES this so much 🥹😩

Skully’s story is quite sad (before B-Up got involved) as he was separated from his brother Shakes (who was deaf) after his owners lost their home and later abandoned him. Shakes was privately adopted, but Skully was under another rescue who planned on euthanizing him due to lack of foster placement. His current training program did not feel Skully should be euthanized - took him under their wing and asked for Bully Up’s help. Flash forward over 300 days, and we can’t find a foster 💔 Although he has been loved by the staff of Diversity K9 Dog Training on a daily basis. We can’t thank you enough 🙏🏽

Skully is an active boy. Very sweet, cuddly, love walks, will need a more active family or foster who loves adventures, hiking, playing tug or ball, has a fenced in yard and room to play! Skully is about 60-65lbs, crate and potty trained. He is neutered and up to date on shots. Loves car rides and very polite.

Adorable Maui is still looking for his furever family. He's been with our Rescue for almost a year and a half! 🤯

We just don't get it, because he is pretty much perfect. He loves people, adores kids and is dog friendly. The dog park is his favorite spot to socialize and meet new furry friends! No kitties, please ✋🏼😼

He's around 4 years old, 65ish lbs, UTD on vaccines, neutered and chipped.

🆘🚨Urgent Help Needed 🚨🆘

These dogs are not with our Rescue, we are trying to help their family find them homes.

The family had a litter and have not been able to rehome them. Please no judgement or negative comments about what they did/did not do. They are trying their best with the situation as it it now and reached out to us for help.

🐾 4 girls - Tink, Red, Violet, Miss Piggy
🐾 4 boys - Kermit, Gorilla, BoBo, Staffy

🐾 1 year old, approx 45-50 lbs
🐾 No vaccines, not spayed/neutered

🐾 Living in kennels in their garage (has heat and A/C), so not house trained

🐾 Need training and socialization with other dogs. All they've known are their parents and siblings.

🐾 Cats unknown
🐾 Good with people and young kids

We've met the dogs and they are sweet, gorgeous and friendly. They just need some guidance. They are young and trainable.

Would anyone be willing to welcome one of them to their home? We cannot possibly take them all. We have asked other Rescues, but no one has offered their help. The owners reached out to Lake County Shelters but they won't take them. They are considering euthanasia as a last resort if they cannot find them homes 💔

Sorry for the picture quality. That's all we have, but you can see what they look like for the most part.

Please message us and we'll put you in touch with the family and act as a liason.

PLEASE share and tag anyone you know looking for a youngster. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Everyone please welcome Tater to Bully Up 🤎 We welcomed this sweet boy (Fka Jason at Osceola County Animal Services) yesterday. Tater was very stressed in the shelter environment and we knew we had to help. Thanks to one of our amazing adopters and foster Portia & Tony stepping forward to help, we were able to pull Tater quickly! Tater is being treated for URI and will be neutered once he’s feeling better 🙏🏽 He’s just the sweetest, laid back dude. Welcome to your new life, Tater. Special thank you to Auntie Ashley for getting this guy seen 🧡
