4/3/26 AWESOME ADOPTION ALERT! From Mary Christmas’s foster momma: When Miss Mary met her future family, it was love at first sight for everyone.
This sweet girl doesn’t let her past define her. She’s all about fresh starts and happy endings. When the cars pulled up for the big moment, Mary could barely contain her excitement… she hopped right into the truck like, “Let’s go, I’m ready for my new life!”
I’m beyond happy for this precious girl. She truly is the sweetest, and I just know she’s about to live the amazing, love-filled life she’s always deserved with her wonderful family. 💖

12/25/25 INTRODUCTION ~ Please welcome Mary Christmas to our rescue family.
From volunteer Dianne: A professional moving van pulled up to a home, ready to load boxes and furniture. When the mover walked inside, he was greeted not by empty rooms, but by three Bulldogs staring back at him.
He immediately called the woman who owned the home. She told him she was boarding a plane, that the Bulldogs belonged to her son who had moved away and left them behind, and that she did not want them. She made it clear she didn’t care what happened to them.
Thankfully, this man had a heart.
Instead of walking away, he Googled “rescue” and found Furry Friendzy Animal Rescue & Wildlife Rehab. The founder, Pylar, answered the phone. She was at an event taking pictures with Santa Paws, but she told him if he could get the dogs there, she would help.
Later that day, he arrived with all three Bulldogs in tow.
Pylar then reached out to Sherry at the Plano Animal Shelter to see who could assist, and Sherry called me. On Dec. 23, Mary Christmas, Star Bright and Suzy Snowflake officially joined rescue.
This is what people mean when they say it takes a village.
On Christmas, I should be feeling thankful, and I am…. thankful for the people who stepped up when it mattered. But my heart is heavy knowing how easily these three could have been forgotten.
Thankfully, they weren’t. 💔

URGENT NEED – DFW FOSTERS NEEDED 🐾
If you live in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, we urgently need more volunteers willing to open their homes to foster Bulldogs while they wait to be adopted. Fostering is temporary, but the impact is life-saving.
When more people say YES to fostering, more Bulldogs get a second chance.
If you can help, please message us today.
Can’t open your home right now, but still want to help? Opening your heart makes a difference too. Even a small $5 donation can help us provide essential veterinary care for our foster dogs and allow us to continue saying “yes” when they need us most.
👉 Donate here: dfwbulldogrescue.org/donate
Thank you for being part of our village. We truly couldn’t do this without you. ❤️
3/16/26 UPDATE ~ From the foster dog Mary Christmas: I’ve been in my new foster home for almost a week, and I’ve already settled right in. I’m a pretty smart girl. It only took me about three days to figure out the routine around here!
Last night, my foster mom caught me patiently waiting in my crate for my bedtime cookie (a girl has to keep track of the important things). I’m crate trained, sleep soundly through the night and I’m always happy to go for a walk or hop in the car for an adventure.
I love soaking up this beautiful Texas weather, playing a little and then relaxing with my people. I’m an easygoing gal who seems to love everyone, especially my human foster sisters and my Bulldog foster brother, Vinny. I’ll admit… I might have a bit of a soft spot for the boys! 💕
Life is pretty good so far, and I can’t wait to see what comes next!
