Hi there,

Walter is on your Bulldogs Available for Adoption Page (and shows as adopted). My husband I adopted him in September. We love him to bits and can't believe it's been almost three months since he's come into our home! HIS forever home!

He is doing AWESOME. He is so dang adorable and he gets attention everywhere we go. Here are some pics of his life now. He has two beds - one of which is a memory foam mattress LOL, but he loves to steal towels after they get out of the dryer and lay on them and he has stayed in his first hotel (check him out on the bunk bed sleeping away - he got himself up there in his kid's suite)! He loved it. He also LOVES his toys. Especially his black kong ball and tug of war rope. Tug of war is his favorite game. Just wanted everyone to know that he is our special guy and he brings us smiles and laughter each day.

Disclaimer: In the photo with the red sunglasses, he had that rawhide bone for two days. At the time I wasn't educated on the dangers they pose. After I found out, I immediately threw it away. He has a nylabone now (and I am researching the safety of deer antler bones - I just think the photo is cute, so I kept it).

Awwwww sweet Walter, bless you for adopting him, he looks so happy in his fur-ever home, and he is so handsome. I noticed in one of the pics, he had a raw hide bone. They are bad for bullies and can kill them. They are chocking hazards and can also tear up their intestines. I'm sure you didn't know this, but that's what's so great about this forum, as we all share info. Also welcome to the site, we are so glad you joined us. [MENTION=10352]Heather Wilson[/MENTION]

Hi Davidh. Yes, I did learn this and we no longer give him those AT ALL. Ice cubes are his treat now LOL. He also has a Nylabone, but I'd like to try the deer antler bones (which are expensive, but I hear safe and good).

I will put a disclaimer on that picture. He didn't even finish that bone. He had it two days when I found out about the danger, felt awful and threw it away.

Thank you again. And yes, he is such a handsome boy! :)

We all learn new things every day, it's what you do with that
knowledge...doing the right thing and sharing it with others
is a wonderful thang!

Thank you all! He has a vet appointment the 26th. We got him pet insurance, too. :)

He is neutered and has a microchip.

Right now he has some cysts in between his toes. I am giving him apple cider vinegar daily and he is on Fromm dog food (beef vegetable fritatta - which eliminated his gas woo hoo)!

Is there any type of checklist I should go over with his vet? Thank you in advance!

Heather, I've not dwelt w/those (luckily) but there are some excellent articles
on these and treating them as well as prevention in the Forum sections.

Let us know the vet report~Good luck & GOD bless!

Bless you and your family for adopting this handsome boy. He looks as though he knows this one is the one that'll stick.

Congrats to you and Walter. Rescuing a Bully is about the best thing I've ever done!
