I know you guys are crazy (like me), so did any of you have similar shopping lists before you got your dog?
BY THE WAY -- This list is a result of being on THIS website. I would never have bought 1/4 of this stuff if I never found you all!!

Here's Brembo:

I would say you got everything. LMFAO When we first got Cutty we stopped by petco on our way home and spoiled him there. I would have way overspent back then had there been an ebn back then. lmao.

Well DAD!! That was a pretty rude thing to say. But you can make it up to us by posting pictures. Lots and Lots of Pictures :D

I'm kidding by the way... about the rudeness! not the pictures lol I love your list. Wish I'd had half that stuff when I brought Abby home (and I thought I was prepared! :eek:)

Yeah we had no EBN, so all of ours was trial and error. Which when you break it down ....was way more expensive. At least you can be assured that you're getting the best stuff the first time around. Also instead of using all those treats, you can simply feed him frozen green beans. Oh and a kiddie pool. You'll want to get 1 of those. Congratulations!!!!

Wow! That's quite the list!

I would however add that you'll need a harness. Bulldogs should be on a leash and harness, NOT a collar. On account of being brachycephalic, collars can be quite dangerous for them.

Also, I'd nix the puppy pads. At 13 weeks he should be learning to go outside. Letting him go on pee pads in the house only serve to prolong house training. It confuses them by thinking they can relieve themselves in the house. It's ok for really young pups who can't yet go outside, but not for a puppy who is being house trained. Just my thoughts :)

Very excited for you to pick up your boy!!! Can't wait to see some pics of his homecoming!
