Passion Fruit is a bulldog mix adult female in medium size, currently cared for through Grass Roots Rescue. She is spayed/neutered and up to date on vaccinations. Having received heartworm treatment, she'll require a follow-up test in July. Though not housebroken, she shows promise with consistent routines and close companionship. She prefers being the only dog in the household and would thrive with someone patient and understanding of her energetic, affectionate nature.

About Passion Fruit

They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now! Meet Passion Fruit, an energetic and loving bulldog mix seeking a special home! This six-year-old, medium-sized girl is full of personality—half sugary sweet, half bold and spirited. Having spent her early years in less-than-ideal conditions, Passion Fruit needs an adopter willing to help her adjust: while she isn't housebroken yet, she tries her best when someone can be home much of the day (if you’re away for more than four hours, a midday potty break plan is a must). She feels secure in a crate, especially with an easy-clean grate and puppy pads, but may need coaching to refine her bathroom habits. If you live for brewery trips, bustling parties, and high-energy chaos or have young kids sprinting around the house, Passion Fruit probably isn’t the right match. Playtime can get rambunctious and mouthy, so she’d do best with adults or teens who can handle bulldog-level play and gently redirect her excitement. While she doesn’t want to share her people with other dogs, she promises to be the most loyal sidekick you could have. Passion Fruit will melt into a loving cuddle bug after a spirited session with her favorite tough toys. She's happiest with someone ready to gain her trust, set boundaries, and appreciate her mix of sass and cuddles. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
