Love this!! Can I please move to The Netherlands?

The Netherlands has officially banned most consumer fireworks to protect animals from the fear, stress, and suffering caused by loud explosions.

The new rules took effect on August 1, 2026, and are set to apply for the first time during the 2026 to 2027 New Year celebrations. The ban aims to reduce the harm caused by fireworks while allowing limited exceptions.

Every year, loud fireworks leave dogs and cats trembling, hiding, and desperately trying to escape. Wild birds can also panic and take flight in the darkness, putting themselves at risk as they flee the noise.

The ban does not cover every type of firework. Small category F1 fireworks remain permitted, and professional displays or certain approved community events may still be allowed.

Animals cannot understand why the sky suddenly erupts with deafening noise. They only feel the fear. Celebrations should bring happiness without forcing innocent animals to suffer.

Meet Brenda: big heart, bigger cuddles, looking for her furever home. 💛

Brenda is a 2-year-old, 70 lb pit bull who loves everyone she meets. She’s affectionate, emotionally expressive, and happiest when she’s right next to you. She had an awful start in life, but she still adores people, and she’s wonderful with kids.

She is available for adoption or foster-to-adopt, and the rescue covers all of her expenses while she’s in foster!

What she’s like:

Active and playful, and obsessed with fetch 🎾
Loves walks, toys, and cuddling on the couch
Perfect in the car
Crate trained and leash trained
Spayed and microchipped
Gentle, sweet, and friendly with everyone

What she needs:

-A home with no other animals, so she can be your one and only. Brenda plays well with other dogs but is still working on some other social behavior.
-A bath once a week, and allergy pills. Her skin is improving and well managed.

Brenda would thrive with someone interested in natural, holistic care. We’re happy to share everything that’s working for her. 🌿

Ariel Bully Rescue adopts to homeowners within about 45 minutes of Louisville, including Southern Indiana. Contact us to to learn more or to meet her! 🐾

Brenda hangin' with her homie Poki. Since being here her energy has become more even keeled and less erratic. He has accepted her as his buddy. Poki is a great gauge of other dogs. When he first met Brenda he was not interested in her. Now he wants to follow her outside.

Happy Adoption Dante!! Last Thursday, Dante got adopted into his furever home. What a great match and a great new family he has. He now has some human siblings and a doggie sister. With Dante's perfect temperament, he will fit in quickly. This boy had a crappy start- neglected by his original family: kept in a crate in a garage all the time, underweight with multiple scars on his head. That family decided to shoot him because they wanted to get a new puppy. Peggy, Dante's neighbor stepped in and saved him. Eventually he found an adopter who bizarrely returned him in 3 days for "allergies". Despite all this he retained his beautiful nature. He is such a gem and we are so very happy for him. This is the start of your best life baby. Congratulations Dante and great work Peggy!

Do you want someone who looks at you like Samuel does? 🥹

Just look at that face. That's the look of a dog who thinks you hung the moon — and he'll give it to you every single day.

Samuel is a big, goofy, red-nosed sweetheart with a smile that takes up his whole head. He loves couch time, butt scratches, and gazing up at his person like they're the most important human alive (because to him, you will be).

❤️ 1.5 years old
❤️ Good with dogs and kids
❤️ House-trained / crate-trained / leash trained/knows commands.
❤️ Neutered, vetted, and fed a high-quality diet through Ariel Bully Rescue

Samuel is looking for a homeowner within about 45 minutes of Louisville (Southern Indiana welcome) who's ready to be adored.

If you've been waiting for someone to look at you like that — contact us to learn more about Samuel! 🐾

Louisville, KY

Samuel's foster mum tried to go to the bathroom by herself today.

This was the delegation waiting outside the door.

The one in front with the ears is Samuel. He has concluded that a closed door between himself and a person is a temporary problem to be solved, and he is not wrong often enough to have learned otherwise.

He is still looking for his people. 18 months, 60 pounds, good with other dogs, needs someone with dominant breed experience. If you would love someone to try and follow you into the toilet contact ARIEL BULLY RESCUE.
