Say Hello to Flower – Ready to Blossom in a Loving, Forever Home!

Looking for a playful, loving companion to brighten your days? Flower, a 2-year-old American Bulldog mix, is ready to find her forever home! With her zoomies, toy obsession, and heart-melting snuggles, she’s sure to bring laughter and love wherever she goes. But don’t just take our word for it—here’s Flower to introduce herself in her own words:

All I Need is YOUR LOVE to Blossom! Hello! I’m FLOWER, named for my bright, happy spirit and my colorful, paw-sitive personality. I'm a 2-year-old American Bulldog mix weighing in at about 63 lbs.— just the right size for comfy couch cuddles and fun-filled adventures!

My volunteer fans think I’m the sassiest cutie patootie they’ve ever met! If you’re looking for a goofball who’ll dish out daily doses of love, pro-level snuggles, and worldclass butt wiggles that will make you smile - look no further. I’M YOUR BABY!

When we first meet, don’t be surprised if I zoom right past you and make a dash for the toy pile. Nope, it’s not you, it’s me – and my silly obsession with toys!

I’m so crazy in love with them that on the way back to my kennel, I’ll try to get my volunteer buddies to make a quick detour to the office—just to plop myself right into the toy basket like I belong there. Well, maybe I’m secretly hoping that someone will take ME home to play with?

But don’t you worry—just toss a toy or two, and you’ll quickly see my playful and hooman-loving side shine through! Once I get to know you, I’ll bloom into a total love bug who’ll happily run to you for snuggles and roll right over for belly rubs!

And here’s a pro tip - if you really want to win me over - give me a good back scratch. Works every time! But hey…fair warning…once we do become besties, spontaneous kisses and love declarations may occur at any moment!

I’ve already mastered “Sit” like a pro and am now learning “Down.” I’m still brushing up on my leash skills and may get excited and pull during sniffaris, but a gentle “Come Back” seems to get my attention back on you and our walkies. I’m both treat- and toymotivated—so training sessions with me are bound to be fun for us when I get home! And oh, I take treats very gently from your hands.

I enjoy running along the fence with friendly, playful doggos who match my energy and love for fun! That said, I can be a little picky when it comes to them—most doggos I click instantly with, while a few others just aren’t my vibe. If you have a doggo at home, please do bring them along for an on-leash, supervised meet-and-greet.

I picture myself with a fun-loving human or family who enjoys playtime and making memories together. After some zoomies and a few rounds of fetch, I'd love to curl up next to you—whether you're on a Zoom call or just Netflixing and chilling.

Don’t be shy—let’s hang out together! Give me a chance to grow on you, and maybe… just maybe… MY LOVE is what you need to blossom too!


Flower is ready to share her love, laughs, and endless tail wags with a forever family. If you think you could be the perfect match, come meet her at East County Animal Shelter or visit www.tvar.org to see more pictures, videos, and information. Your new best friend might just be a zoomie away!
