Hello EBN. Last week, my wife and I were blessed with the re-homing of Cooper (please see https://www.englishbulldognews.com/threads/need-advice-dog-and-baby-related.63663/ ). I will say that the owners did not want to give up Cooper and they tried (in my book) everything they could to keep him. They took him to their Vet who did a work-up, they hired a trainer, and they took him to a behaviorist. As a a last resort, the family contacted @2BullyMama who reached out to me to re-home Cooper as she knew I was applying to adopt from Bullies to the Rescue. My wife and I drove to PA and met the owners and met Cooper. He seemed to like us so my wife and I discussed re-homing Cooper on the way to York, PA to see my Army buddy while stationed in Korea 1973-1974 and give him a hat from our unit 4th Squadron 7th Calvary (Garry Owen Sir--Custer's old Regiment...es I'm an old fart).
The owners drove down from PA 9/1 after we returned from our trip to Texas and brought C-man to us. Cooper is a beautiful tri-colored 3.5 year old neutered male. He is very sweet and is tolerating our neighbors well (although I told him about one neighbor he could bite). He is barking but only when his ball-ball goes under the couch or he can't reach it (Cooper is a ball junkie), when dogs bark on TV, and when someone knocks on the door. He has a big appetite and chows down at meal times. He has triggers if you read the above link. My wife and I will try to socialize more with my one neighbor who has 2 dogs, Pepper and Ziggy and take him to PetSmart and stand in the door way.
The owners of Cooper are now a part of our extended family and have extended an invitation to babysit Cooper should my wife and I need to travel. We graciously thank the owners for bringing Cooper to our home and hearts.
