Hey everyone!
I've been having a rough time because I've been separated from my bullie, Millie, since December 14th :(. She has been staying with my boyfriend and his family for the holidays since we are both in college and wanted to see our families in separate states. Its been the longest we have been separated and I missed her first Christmas and first birthday.

I typically visit EBN when Millie seems to be driving me up a wall.... either with her chin acne, corneal ulcer, ear infections, reoccuring mange episodes, or diet issues but these past weeks I've been coming just to see some adorable Bullies and read posts. I want to say :thanks: to everyone here for posting so many Xmas pics/videos and for being as obsessed with Bullies as I am... it makes me feel a tidbit less crazy and I've learned so much!! I am so feel lucky to have stumbled upon this site!!

This Friday we will finally be reunited and I plan on ignoring my boyfriend (for just a lil' bit) and squeezing Mildew for a long long time (not too tight because once that made her :barf: ... woops!)

Your girl is gorgeous! And don't worry...bullie owners seem to be their own special kind of crazy (and I am one of them!) Looking forward to your reuniting with your girl!

Oh! Ha ha ha! I thought this was going to be about poor Millie having separation anxiety while you were at school or something. Instead, you are tortured with the anxiety. I feel your pain. Thank goodness for Skype! Love little Millie, she is just so ah-dog-a-bull! Please post more pictures...

Awww, Millie is such a cute little thing! I can see why you would have such anxiety being separated from her....although when I first read the post, I too thought it was about the bullie having separation anxiety! :lol: I am so sorry you have to be apart from your adorable bullie for that long. The longest I have been away from Frank has been 5 days and I was so sad. At least you only have a couple more days to go until you are reunited!

Same here.... especially, when I had Nitschke, he LOVED car rides so I always wanted to take him where ever I was going.

Haha thanks everyone for the support!

I'm not sure she is experiencing the same anxiety without me but I like to imagine. Maybe she's thinking "Where's that girl who gives a meannnn butt-scratch?!?" :ROFL: I had a little mental breakdown the other day when I couldn't remember what her little paws smelled like! :nope: But we will be together very soon!
PLUSSSS I just graduated from college + currently unemployed = tons of Millie time:happydance: (and job "hunting")

@kazzy220 i like the way you're thinking! 51 Hours!!!
