Considering becoming a bulldog mama

[BoxerMama]

Currently a proud owner of two Boxers. Rally Rims aged 2.5 years, brindle female (altered). Octane aged 5 years, male (altered). I have been a lover of Bulldogs for a long time and I have recently been offered a caregiver position to a show girl who is 10 months old. I follow the breeder, I'm a huge fan and I have met a lot of her dogs. While I have done a lot of research on my own I do know that reading and owning are two very different things. Or at least that is what I've learned with my boxer babies.
So, if you had to tell me one thing about owning a Bulldog that you feel is under explored, what would it be?

DIET is key to their existence!!!!

to EBN. You will get lots of opinions. Glad you joined and would love to see pix of your boxers. You will find that a bully is no where near as energetic as your boxers. Diet Diet Diet... !!!!

 

[BoxerMama]

I'm good with diet. My female boxer has a lot of allergies and my boy is slowing down a lot and has his share of issues. They eat different foods and are both on VERY strict diets. I believe it is a part of the contract the they eat Eagle Pack Natural. I know it used to be. I'm not a huge fan of this particular brand but she says it works well for her dogs.

Nothing more fulfilling than owning bulldogs. They have a love all of their own to give. Nothing like bully smoochies.

TIME...lots of time to play, snuggle, wipe down, clean, and just BE with your bully. These are not solitary individuals and will want to be with you as often as possible.

Be prepared for bully up your butt everytime you turn around, whether your are cooking or going to the bathroom lol

 

[BoxerMama]

Aww, now I'm more excited. People tell me I have an unhealthy obsession with my dogs. I tell them that they are my family. They sleep in my bed and their groceries cost more than mine, I have to love them or I would hate them! lol
Boxers seem to be a lot like bulldogs, they truly aren't just dogs, they are your soulmates. They make life whole.

That's going to be two Boxers and a Bully! They bring me toys when I try to soak in the tub.
