Bully with spina bifida

[seernod]

hello everyone my wife and I are now proud owners of another bully after saying last feb we were gonna try without a dog for awhile. Well that didnt work so after losing our last bulldog which was 12 last Feb we are now proud owners of a 9 week old male bully. His name is Henry and he is beautiful but has a little indention 2 inches up from his tail apparently he has been diagnosed with Spinal Bifida but he has no symtoms as of yet . Anyway the way we got him was we knew the breeder and was wondering if we would be interested in rescuing him well one look at him and that is all it took. So we will be looking to this forum to see if anyone else has this same problem with there bully. Thank You Don & Glenda

Hi and welcome. Sorry about the loss of your bully baby. I too lost my dog a Jack Russell 2 years ago, and said no more dogs. Lol. I now am a new mom to 2 EB pups, they are litter mates, and are 10 months old. Their names are Bulldozer and Blossom. Congratulations on Henry, and bless you guys for rescuing him. I am sorry I don't have any experience with Spina Bifida in a dog, but hopefully somebody who, does will be along soon to help you. I look forward to your pictures and stories about Henry.

Hello and welcome to EBN. one of our members [MENTION=1930]RescueMe[/MENTION] has SB Bullies. I'm sure she'll pop by and advise you if she sees this x

I've read some SB puppies will have no symptoms. Hopefully your guy is one of those lucky ones! We would love to see pictures of him.

Welcome to the group. How special it is that your took on a possible challenging Bully. I am so happy for you and very very happy for Henry.

Just a few warnings: this place can get addicting and you will be harassed until photos are put up, so get them uploaded!

Welcome to EBN! You and your wife are amazing for rescuing such a special baby! I'm not of any help on SB Bullies, but wanted to welcome you and Henry! I can't wait to see pictures of him, and hear about your journey!

and bless you!!! SB babies are very special indeed

Have you or do you need to diaper? Things to watch out for are rubbing spots, diaper rash, and urinary tract infections. Let me know if you need anything or have any questions. If I do not have the answers I have tons of friends that will.
