Here is PINKY! This is a sweet, gentle 6-1/2 yr old girl who gets along well with everyone. She presently lives with a friendly male bulldog, has ignored the vet kitties and has met neighborhood children. She may need supervision when first meeting other dogs, especially females. She is best...

Sorry a little late, but work has been busier than I can ever rememebre. The boys are still doing great... annual wellness check went great! Our vet is thrilled that we switched to raw and said he can see the benefits.. We are fully on duck at this time, but thinking about trying the rabbit...

Hi all, Hoping for some advice on how to deal with this. I'm 100% sure that Reggie has hyperkeratosis on his paw pads - his feet look exactly like the pictures I've found online. Now, I've read a lot of information that says the hyperkeratosis has to be trimmed back, and then his pads need to...

Hi, I would like to reach to our group for advice and help with my baby. Izzy has been diagnosed with "spayed incontinence"after many accidents inside the house and also while she was sleeping. Her vet gave her some hormones as medication and I am not sure this is the best approach for this...

About 2 weeks ago Sampson started limping on his back left leg. I brought him in to the vet after a couple of days when it was not getting better. The vet checked out his hips and they looked good, she did seem to find in the back leg he was limping on a small amount of arthritis in his knee...

Was reading that Rosemary is in some dog foods, and can cause seizures. When Veterinarians reported that a particular pet food caused neurological problems in cats, testing found that one batch lacked Vitamin B1 (thiamine) but the real culprit in cat and dog food ingredients may be...

Hello, I have a 7 yr. old, female, spayed, EB and her Vet says she is 10 lbs. overweight. She is on Blue Buffalo weight management dry food. She gets 2 cups a day along with a can of green beans, (1/2 in the morning and 1/2 at night). When she first started on the Weight Management lost a couple...

I have noticed recently (last month) that my 6 year old males poop smells very strong and vinegary. We have not changed foods. He also has lost patches of hair on his back- going to the vet next week but wondering if anyone has ever experienced this.

Please welcome Gracie Irene to our rescue family! As cute and smart as they come, Gracie is a rather fluffy lady, even though her photos make her look thin. Maybe it was the camera angle, or maybe she was holding in her stomach, but she really is thick and perfect.Gracie has no sad tales to...

Please welcome Georgie to our rescue family! She writes: I am 9 months old and the cutest young lady you have ever seen. I mean, really… I’m just about perfection! You might notice my skin needs a little attention. That’s a minor thing, and I will get that under control.I am really here because...

Some dogs come to us with the saddest stories. This is not one of those. Baby is six years old and has lived and was loved by with the same family since she was two months old. But a lot of changes have taken place in the family these past six years. They now find themselves in a position where...

We are never sure where life will take us. Many ended up bankrupt, or homeless, or all alone, when they never thought such would or could happen to them. The same thing happens to pets. They wake up one day and they are in the shelter and wonder how all this happened!Jessie Lynn was found...

Please welcome Clay Walker to our Lone Star Bulldog Club Rescue family. No, not the famous country artist… better than that: Clay Walker, the most beautiful brindle Bulldog! Clay’s dad, Justin, had one job to do and that was to find Clay a family that would love and take care of him forever...

Welcome Ruby Girl to rescue! She was surrendered to a local shelter when her elderly owner fell ill. Ruby has been sick for a while and has been having some discharge, so the owner had been putting a diaper on her. But they had neglected to keep her as clean as they should so an infection has...

This is Bug She is on her second round of antibiotics for pneumonia (first diagnosis 2/27/18 - second 3/20/18) and yesterday morning and this morning she seems really phlegmy. However, she is very active, has a great appetite and her gums have good color - so my question: Is it normal during...

Ivy - Available Age 6/7 Female English Bulldog Please welcome Ivy to TABR. She comes to us as a owner surrender and a very sick little girl. She was dropped off at a spay clinic and as she was waiting to be spayed she threw up a rope toy. She survied the spay, and was sent to us skin...

Ever since my husband and I (and our other EB) picked up our second, we've wondered what the deal was. Sophie was literally 2.5 lbs when we took her in to her first vet appointment. She was so small we were constantly afraid of stepping on her and squishing her! I mean, tiny. I will have to post...

This beautiful bulldog is 2 years old and was recently let out of a small backyard for the first time in her life. Shirley is sweet, curious, playful, and very smart- but still needs humans to guide her in new places and introduce her to new things. Since being bought as a puppy, Shirley had...

Hi guys, George has had this rash on his chest/shoulder area for months now but it just recently started getting worse. I'm guessing it might ne a food allergy? Could it be fleas, ticks, allergy... it also seems to have spread to his right side of his face. His right eye does have entropian...

Hello! My name is Buckeye and I am a big, handsome, gentle 3 year old bulldog. I had lost my way and was so happy when I was found and given to a shelter. They immediately reached out to Chicago English Bulldog Rescue to get me into a foster home so I can find my forever home. What can I tell...

10/18/16: Please welcome Sophie Grace! Sophie’s owners had taken in a few extra dogs recently and Sophie Grace has started to act out. They thought it would be best for her to move into new home with less stress and less dogs. She is already spayed but not up to date on her vaccinations and...

9/17/16: Please welcome Roxie! Roxie has been passed through four homes in her short life before making her way to us. The last person to have her took her to the vet and treated her eye and ear infections and got her vaccinated. She knew she would not be able to keep her but she wanted to...

Nausi Age: 7 INTAKE: Nausi joins us after having at least 2 home previously. Her last owner was no longer able to care for her and surrendered her to FEBR. Nausi seems very easy going and should be good with dogs and kids. However, we...

Oscar Age: 10 UPDATE: Oscar is 10 1/2 and a complete love! He likes to hang out on his bed and gets along very well with other dogs. He is on Apoquel & also benadryl for his skin allergies as he is quite an itchy dog without these.INTAKE...

INTAKE 3/24/18: Bowser comes to us after his original owner surrendered him to a vet's office. The vet gave him to someone to rehome and this gentleman wanted FEBR to get him the medical help he needs and then find a good fit!Bowser is intact and also has a double cherry eye that needs...

So our EB is 12 weeks old. He has been having soft stools now for almost 3 weeks. We did switch him from Royal Canin puppy chiot to Fromm puppy chiot. We transitioned and assumed the soft stool was from the switch of food. I tried pumpkin which seemed to help a little but now it’s back to soft...

Hey guys, I am new to the site. But since my post yesterday for asking for help with Georges diahhrea... many of you have told me to stay away from Royal Canin. My vet always raves about it but I feel like I could trust you guys more! lol What does your bully eat? Kibble or cooked food. I...

Our English bulldog chopper is 7 months we took him to the vet and they did a urinalysis on him because we told them he pees in his sleep every night and he’s potty trained other than that and the test said he had a high ph which was weird because there was no blood or no infection showing up...

Does anyone use NuVet Vitamins or any vitamins for their bully’s. We had a 2&1/2 year old female that passed of kidney failure so we are trying everything we can to make sure our new bully is healthy as can be. We don’t want to ever see a dog go through what our last went through. Even though...

Tucker started acting very lethargic last Friday morning before I left for work, and even more so when I got home. I rushed him to the vet where they did lab work and an X-ray of his abdomen. Blood work didn't show anything, and the X-ray only showed kibble in his tummy from breakfast, from...

1) At what age did you give the rabies vaccine to your bully? Breeder told us wait till 6 months, vet told us that is all a bunch of crap and you can do it whenever. Moose is now 5 and 1/2 months old. 2) Is your dog neutered? At what age? My instinct is to not have him neutered. Growing up in...

Our dog Alaska is over a year and a half old now. We love him to death but he has two issues that we need help with. 1. Puking. We have to give him very small amounts of water at a time so he doesn't regurgitate it right back up. We also can't give him food and water together or else he'll...

Well...I took in a fecal sample yesterday for Louie because he was due and of course I assumed it would be negative. NOPE!! Just got the call from the vet and he was positive for giardia...ugh!!!!!!! So will start treatment today and will have to treat Jax as well.

My puppy managed to jump up into a raised garden bed and ate the bulb of an amaryllis. According to Google its toxic. Should I just watch him? So far no vomiting or diarrhea, he's eating and drinking ok. The poison control charges a fee, should I call? The vet didn't have an answer they referred...

I have an English Bulldog who is about to turn two and it looks like tail amputation is the best/only option for her. She was born with a very tight inverted cork screw tail, because of this our vet told us to be extra diligent in cleaning and care to hopefully prevent any issues in the future...

So as most of you know Dually is in congestive heart failure and we recently found out he has an irregular heartbeat ( I think I could open a pharmacy with all the meds he is on haha). That being said the vet wants him on a low sodium diet. What food would you recommend that has low sodium...

Hi everyone my name is Angel. I am 5 ½ years old. I also have an adorable face, the cutest perky ears and an all-white coat. I had a rough start when I first came into rescue. I had a stinky ear infection. In the same ear I had a tumor that had grown and it became ulcerated. So you can...

11/18/15: Please welcome Mattie Mae! She is the newest “diaper dog” to join GEBR. Someone left her behind a vet clinic in East Atlanta last month. Someone found her pulling herself across the road about to get hit by a truck. They brought her into the clinic. The clinic called us to see if we...

Ricky BobbyAge: 4 INTAKE 2/23/18: Today FEBR got a message from a local vet that a bulldog had been found in bad shape. It's skin was in bad condition and looked very neglected. Then then found his jaw was broken :( We are not sure how his jaw was...
