The recent tornados that have devastated cities and towns in Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas, Arkansas and even California have destroyed more than just homes and property. The loss of life of not only people but of animals also continues to mount up every day. Here is a very touching story about a dog with two broken legs that finds his owner. No one can deny the strong bond between dogs and people.
Dog with two broken legs finds owner after storm - Yahoo! News http://yhoo.it/joyipT Here is a video tribute to skateboarding bulldogs all over the world. Amazing stuff to watch. See, the flatfaces are MORE than just a pretty face. Enjoy~ Adopting a new EBD puppy? Do you have food, bowls, crates, bedding, toys and water? What you say about water? Yes. Take 2 empty 1 gallon jugs with you, if you can, and fill up with the water from where you get the puppy. Just like visiting foreign countries and you are told not to drink the water, the same applies for puppies also. Their digestive systems are very sensitive to change. You should start off feeding the same food that was being fed to the puppy. A respected/reputable breeder will educate you about what they feed, why and even offer you a bag “to-go” if you do not have the same food. Any changes in food should occur over a 1 week period of time. You gradually transition over to the new brand of food to prevent violent difference in digestion. The same applies with water. Start to mix the original water with the new water 4:1, 3:1, 2:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4 and then fully switch. This will also minimize changes in the digestion system.
This will only apply is you are actually picking up the puppy locally. If shipping is required, that is another BLOG post. So some of you might recognize those words from a Lynyrd Skynyrd band song from back in the days, and many might not. Depends on age and music preference. But THIS refers to the Bullie gas smell. If you own a Bullie, you know what I am talking about. Most cause of gas is from the food that you feed. While EBD’s normally have gas problems, you can minimize this greatly by feeding the right food. Many if not most EBD are allergic to wheat and other grain items in the food. This not only causes gas but is also a leading cause of the tear stains as well. There are PLENTY of premium brand dog foods that are grain free. If you change to a new brand, witch over slowly..mix 90% of original and 10% of new, 80/20,70/30 and this can be done over the course of a week. Buy a small bag of the new food before investing in the BIG bags. Watch for severe changes in BM (poop) and STOP if you see any severe changes. There are also some Bullies that are allergic to chicken also. SO, finding the BEST dog food for YOUR dog takes time. It is NOT just the price of the bag. With the premium brands you will feed less. The food is much more digestible; the dog gets more nourishment and will have less stool volume. Oh…and less or practically NO gas.

Those of you who have called us, emailed us or visited our home have heard us talk about our pedigree and why we DO NOT BELIEVE OR CONDONE linebreeding or inbreeding. Recently while having a discussion with a new owner about an issue, I came across this in the article. While it was not what we were talking about, I found it interesting that a Dr. Vet was lamblasting this practice:
"Purebred dogs and bulldogs in particular are more susceptible to these things because they are so inbred. A specialty breed like the bulldog has been inbred for over a hundred years, and in the last twenty or so years the AKC encourages this inbreeding by awarding prizes to certain breed attributes. This inbreeding is such an issue in terms of general health of any purebred dog that is bred for looks rather than health." This is exactly why we breed for health and quality first and foremost. ~ABEBD Adopting a new EBD puppy? Do you have food, bowls, crates, bedding, toys and water? What you say about water? Yes.

We worry if the new puppy will fit in, do well in a new home and is the puppy the right one? We are pleased to share about Zorro, now and forever to be called ZEUS: "Hey guys! Just wanted to let you know that Zorro is transitioning just fine! We can tell how smart he is because he KNOWS he is in a new home. We wanted to let you know the name we chose! He is now Zeus to us. Loyal and bold just like him! Thanks again for such a beautiful dog! He truly completes our family and our daughter LOVES him!"
"Zeus was the most important deitygod or goddess of ancient Greece, the leader of the gods and the all-powerful overseer of earthly events and human destiny" |
