Are you hoping to adopt an English Bulldog from a rescue in PA? Why wouldn’t you!
Problem is, where do you even start with the process?
Thankfully, I’ve pulled together a directory of all the main English Bulldog rescues in the state of Pennsylvania.
This way, you’ll have a list of rescues to find your dog and begin the process of adoption.
So, let’s get into it!

American Bulldog Rescue
American Bulldog Rescue (ABR) is a non-profit, charitable organization dedicated to rescuing and finding forever homes for bull breed dogs in need.
They are based in eastern Pennsylvania and work with adopters and shelters in the mid-Atlantic region.
American Bulldog Rescue is not a shelter, but an all-volunteer group where the dogs receive loving care in a network of dedicated foster homes until the time when their forever family is found.

Finally
So there you have it; four reputable Pennsylvania-based bulldog rescues that you should start your search with and make some inquiries.
They are the main, most reputable ones.
Outside of these bulldog-specific rescues, you’d need to check in with general dog rescues.
They may or may not have this breed available for adoption at the time of your search. So do bear that in mind.
Generally, these rescues should be the basis of your search.
And while I spent a lot of time researching to find these rescues, if you were to find others that are not listed that you believe should be, do contact me.
I’d be keen to get them added!
