Diets, Love, and Forever Happiness
When Rollie and Pollie arrived at the shelter, it was clear they were carrying extra weight, so the staff immediately put them on a diet to help them slim down. After being placed on a stray hold, volunteers Phil and Sharyl introduced the English Bulldog sisters to potential adopters during the shelter’s ‘Lunchtime Live’ stream.
All these two wanted was a safe, comfortable home together. The shelter staff hoped for the same, though they knew how rare it is for bonded pairs to find a family willing to adopt both.
But luck was on Rollie and Pollie’s side. A family saw them on the livestream and fell in love. Within a few days, the inseparable duo was adopted — and best of all, they went to the same loving home, where they’ll spend the rest of their lives side by side. The couple was elated to be adding these two lovebugs to their family.
Happy Ending For Bulldog Sisters
The shelter volunteers couldn’t have imagined a happier ending for the adorable bulldog sisters. They shared the joyful news on TikTok, writing, “We’re so glad Rollie and Pollie found their forever home!”
Along with the announcement, they encouraged viewers to check out the other dogs still waiting at the shelter for a family to call their own.
For Rollie and Pollie, the search for safety, comfort, and love ended exactly the way it was meant to — side by side. Their journey from wandering the streets to curling up in a home of their own proves that sometimes, fate has a way of bringing the right hearts together. While these two have found their perfect match, many other shelter dogs are still patiently waiting for theirs.
“When you adopt, you’re not just saving a life — you’re making room for unconditional love. Rollie and Pollie found that love together, and every shelter dog deserves the same chance,” asserts pet rescue advocate Rocky Kanaka.
