Show 48 more pets Back to top [All adoptable pets](https://ncpetproject.org/adopt/) [How this list works](https://ncpetproject.org/adopt/how-it-works/) Listings from 348 North Carolina shelters and rescues, checked October 17, 2026. Each pet links to its shelter, and the full list is on [shelters and rescues](https://ncpetproject.org/adopt/shelters/). Pets are adopted every day, so a pet shown here may already have found a home. ## What the list shows today The 49 American bulldogs on the list today are spread across 23 counties; the most are listed in Brunswick County (6), Mecklenburg County (5) and Wake County (5). About 55% are listed by rescues and 45% by public and nonprofit shelters, and about 53% live in foster homes rather than at a shelter, so a visit may need an appointment. Of the 41 with an age listed, the typical (median) age is about 4 years. From the shelter and rescue listings NC Pet Project read on October 17, 2026. Each shelter sets its own labels, ages and foster status. ## About American bulldogs American bulldogs are loyal, protective and strongly bonded to their families. They need daily walks or play, early socialization, weekly brushing, and care in hot weather because they are sensitive to extreme heat. Breed labels come from each shelter. They are a staff member's best guess from a pet's looks, not a DNA test, so a pet listed here may be a different mix, and a pet of this breed may be listed under another label. Before you adopt, read our guides to [adopting versus buying a dog in NC](https://ncpetproject.org/adopt-vs-buy-dog-nc/) and [when to spay or neuter a dog by size](https://ncpetproject.org/spay-neuter-timing/). Source: [VCA Animal Hospitals: American Bulldog](https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/american-bulldog). ## NC rescues for American bulldogs We have not confirmed a North Carolina rescue that focuses on American bulldogs yet. Our guide to [finding a legitimate rescue in North Carolina](https://ncpetproject.org/find-legitimate-rescue-nc/) explains what to look for, and every pet above links to its own shelter. ## Get an email when a new American bulldog is listed in NC **Coming soon.** Sign up now and you'll be first; we'll email you once to confirm before alerts start.
