just wondering if anyone knows any good balms to use on my english bulldogs nose that aren’t super expensive? any help is appreciated :)
Hi all. I’m new here and haven’t had good luck with finding the right vet for my English Bullies.
Anyone know of a vet or practice with experience and focus on this breed? I had a guy in Denver who was well known for it but web searches here have come up dry. One of my boys has some skin issue and I need to get him in.
Thanks 🙏🏻!!
So, as all English bulldogs are, my dog is so sweet. But something happened, I don't know what, and she acts differently towards people now... specifically men.
This makes me so sad to think that something may have happened to her while she wasn't in my care, or maybe she was traumatized by the vet at some point? I don't know for sure.
Is it normal for a sweet English bulldog to all of a sudden bark and lunge aggressively at men who try to pet her? She is protective but she always has been in the sense that she will bark if she hears someone at the door or in the apartment hallway. But she used to LOVE getting pet by people....now something in her just triggers a lot of anxiety.
Tonight especially, I was just completely shocked when she barked at this man in the most strange way that I have never heard before - it was the most aggressive I have ever heard her bark and he even said he has never heard a dog bark like this before either. It sounded like she was about to fight him to the death if I let her!
Has this happened to anyone else/is this normal for this breed, and is there anything I can do??? In 2020 she swallowed a quarter and had to get a couple enemas at the vet. She understandably hates going to the vet now and I'm wondering if maybe a man gave the enemas to her and she has a distrust towards men now or something :( I think that was around the time her behavior changed but I'm not completely sure.
Any experiences similar?
I posted this two weeks ago; was hoping more people would see it this time.
Our boy Ferris has grown too "girthy" for his store-bought football jersey (size XL, which was the largest size they made, but it was way too long on him, of course). He's 65lbs.
Where do y'all get football jerseys that fit an English bulldog's unique dimensions? Is there an online seller (Etsy, eBay, etc.) you've had luck with? Is there a sewing pattern you use? If so, where do you find "football jersey fabric?"
We adopted our boy in July. It was hard to find a harness that fit him (22” neck, 30” chest) and it doesn’t fit very well. Now I’m looking for a winter coat and same problems with proportions. Any tips on where to shop? I found one place that does breed specific sizes, but the least expensive coat is $115.
