SENIOR BULLIES

[FORDE'SMOM]

HI...at what age are our babies considered a senior bully? .......................I asked this on on the thread titled " how active is your senior bully" and thought it may do better with its own thread, it would not let me delete from the other..or maybe i didn't do it correctly .......sorry

I think that question will get quite varied opinions. Princess Gracie is 6.5... is she a senior? I dont know. I think she is at the age when they are considered seniors.

I'm a little unsure myself. My Fergie turned 6 last march and shortly after we received a note from her vet saying her senior exam was due. It's a good question I'm going to have to research that and get back to you

I would say around 7 years, don't know for sure though.

I agree with David. 7 is the age Bulldogs are considered seniors. I have found through experience that my Bulldogs have been alert and active pretty much up until the end!

Definitely at age 7 or maybe even just before. I have a wonderful Bulldog vet that Sally will be seeing on Saturday. I'll ask him and see what he thinks.

According to my vet Samson is now senior because he is 7, he turned 7 on March 31st

Well I checked a few websites and they said around 7 or 8 yrs but they also said it depends on the individual dog. They all pretty much agreed that diet,health,activity and other factors determine when a dog enters its senior years. They said you will be able to tell by a reduction in activity levels, fatigue, greying around the mouth and nose etc. Much like humans so if this is true then my 6 yr old Fergie IS indeed a senior! I hope this helps!
