Just because I am one of those people, I contacted Ellie's previous owners and kinda gave them the what for about her care or lack there of I should say. I told them that I had asked if she had any allergy or medical problems (I knew she did by looking at her) and they had told me no. I informed them that she has been to the vet twice, she is under weight, has yeast in her wrinkles and the hair loss on her neck and the sores are from allergies and hot spots. Not from another dog biting her or her collar rubbing. Also, that she hasn't had any heart worm medication and that could be deadly. I knew before hand Ellie needed vet care, but I didn't let them know that. I told them that I gave them the $550 adoption in fee with the understanding that I was getting a healthy maintained bulldog. That it obviously is not the case. The woman I gave the adoption fee to would not speak to me or respond in any way she made her husband call who had nothing to do with the adoption. He and I are supposed to have a conversation in the morning. I would never give Ellie back but I felt they should know that because of their lack of care she has health and allergy issues. That even if she is a pure breed that the condition she in is unacceptable. My husband thinks I nuts , I told him maybe it will keep them from getting another fur baby.
Ellie and Jagger had her on the ground loving all over her!!! She was laughing so hard and rolling all over, it was so heart warming to watch and all 3 of them loved it. I can see Ellie is very involved with the entire family. Jagger loves everyone but Cate is his person.
Thank you for giving this sweet little girl a forever home! She is so lucky to have found you and will grow to love Jagger. It has to be confusing for her after being with a dog who was aggressive and in so many homes. Poor little thing! I can't wait to hear about her as she becomes aware she is HOME! 
. And she is loving the extra food trying to get her to the healthy weight the vet would like to see. They just didn't do their research on the breed. I just got Jagger ( my first bulldog) this year. I had been wanting a bulldog for 8 years. I did research for 5+ years. Online searches, talking to my vet, contacting breeders and just talking to other owners. I was fully aware and prepared for all that can come with these personality filled babies.
