Bullies 2 the Rescue Bullies 2 the Rescue is an organization that began and continues to be run by "Bulldoggers" all over the United States. "Bulldoggers" all share one thing in common...our love for English Bulldogs! The home base of our operation is located in North Carolina. We have a nationwide transport train that carries our bulldogs to their "furever" homes or into safe & loving foster homes until they are ready for adoption.

Our mission, first and foremost, is to ensure the safety and well-being of all Bulldogs we take in and to educate the public in the care of English Bulldogs. We rehabilitate and re-home those that are sick, neglected, abused, or injured.

Moreover, we provide a safe alternative to shelters for owners that are faced with the already difficult decision of finding a new home for their English Bulldog.

We rely solely on donations and are completely run by volunteers like you!

At this time there is such a great need, we only take English Bulldogs.
