About Matilda

Matilda's journey started on a neglected property in Southern California, where she lived alongside 18 other bulldogs in dire conditions. After her rescue, she received emergency medical care and intensive treatment, and now this lovely girl has embraced a new, pampered life. With a heart of gold, Matilda eagerly seeks human affection and enjoys leaning her heavy, wrinkly head against your leg for a good scratch. She’s not one for long runs or hikes; instead, she loves short, leisurely walks around the neighborhood, followed by a comfortable spot indoors with the air conditioning. Matilda is on the lookout for a loving home where she can reign as the queen of the household. Her new family should be committed to keeping her comfortable as she ages and to maintaining her adorable facial wrinkles. In return, Matilda will offer unwavering loyalty, companionship, and plenty of bulldog charm. Ready to meet Matilda? Click apply to start the adoption process.
