Bouviers Available for Adoption
Thank you for your interest in adopting a Bouvier des Flandres. The Bouviers we offer for adoption have been screened by those knowledgeable in the breed and we feel they are very desirable dogs. We hope to provide them with excellent homes. For each Bouvier adopted, we ask payment for actual expenses incurred or a minimum of $500.00. To be considered as an adopter, please fill out an application.
In some cases, applicants submit an application for a specific Bouvier; in others, an open application is submitted for future consideration of Bouviers coming in to the program. Even if we do not have Bouviers listed as available for adoption, we encourage you to submit an application, as we try to look through applications that we have on file any time a dog comes into our care, and sometimes before they are posted on our website. Please know that many of dogs receive multiple applications, in which case we will look for the applicant that will be the best fit for that particular dog. If your application was not selected, it will remain on file for a year. We encourage you to continue to communicate with the Coordinator in your area regarding your interest, or if you wish to withdraw your application. At any time, direct any questions about the process, your application, or Bouviers to the Coordinator for your state or to the National Director.
Izzy
Izzy is a gentle and affectionate senior dog in search of a new home and a second chance at love. Through no fault of her own, this loyal companion has found herself without a family, as her previous owner has passed away. But don't let her age fool you — Izzy may be a senior, but she has the heart of a puppy and the wisdom of a seasoned canine. She is a typical BRT (Black Russian Terrier), a large, devoted, and gentle dog. Izzy is the perfect couch potato, content to snuggle up with you for movie nights and lazy Sundays. She is gentle and affectionate, always ready to offer a listening ear and a warm nuzzle. Izzy is eager to find a new family to devote her love and loyalty to and will make a wonderful, calm companion for anyone seeking a furry friend. If you're looking for a mature, loving dog to add to your home, consider opening your heart to Izzy. She is sure to bring joy, companionship, and a lifetime of devoted friendship to her new family.

The ABRL is looking for a foster home and/or adoptive home for Rocky. Rocky is being rehomed due to no fault of his own. His family is dealing with medical issues. If you are not already in our application database please fill out a foster or adoption application on the ABRL website.
Rocky has just turned 4 yr. old. He is a Bouvier/poodle mix and is Coco's son. Rocky still has some puppy in him and loves to play. He is a sweet and lovable boy.

She has a little arthritis in her backend but is otherwise in great shape. Coco is spayed, current on vaccinations and heartworm negative.
