I got "picked" by my first Bully about 4 years ago. She was a rescue with several medical issues....we were more a "hospice". She stole my heart and now I don't ever see myself without. I was just over 41.
I got my first bullies at 26. I had two foster dogs at the time, and had always loved bulldogs, so when Uni came along it was a no-brainer. The foster dogs got a new home when Uni was about 8 months old, and we all missed them. So in came Boadie! Uni was over a year old when we got him and she will always be my spoiled SWEET BABY! Boadie is my BIG BOY!
We got our first Bulldog, Sherman, when I was 42. I am 70 now. Yikes! Ruggles is Bulldog # 6. We usually have 2 Bullys and we soon will again because we get no name yet baby brother Feb. 7th! He is an Old English Bulldogge!
What a bunch of great stories! You know we actually committed to getting Liz before finding a house! Then my husband insisted that we needed to install central air before we brought her home. So, yes, we bought a house and central air conditioning for a dog!
