Didles

My husband, stupidly, responded to one of these ad's and I just had to play along. Said British Bulldog was in Sydney, but she was ill so travelled to Adelaide to stay with husbands parents with children as they have a maid. I then got a scanned copy of a german passport, and claims her husband was a vet, when I ask general known health issues of Bulldogs this person was very vague. Needless to say I reported it and email German embassy with the passport photo and emails, just in case it was a stolen one.

I am going to pop in with the hope I am joining you all again, this time we are looking at getting a french bulldog, we already have a British Bulldog Winston. Only spoke via email with a breeder on the weekend. We have been looking since before Christmas. Fingers crossed for us.....

Winston just suited him, yes a British Bulldog, my next one hopefully soon I am hoping for a girl Willow which will be a frenchie, but we also have Coco picked out too.

Will google her and find out thanks for that, I am not allowed to drive for six months as I have just had brain surgery but might get my parents to take us. Going to give the Calendula Tea a go as well as the sudacream and malaseb wash mix it up a tad, might even re-introduce natural yogurt to his brekky to help his insides and go back to sensitive advance from large breed. Then see this vet and go from there, got to love DOL and all your help. lol on the frenchie litter, fingers crossed there, we have had some bad experiences in the past with breeders who advertised here and sounded all legit until we went to go get our pup and turned out the litter had parvo as well as a frenchie litter they had who they put on the plane anyway, then we got Winston and he had awful hips but I just could not send him back so we kept him just very lucky he was from a wonderful breeder who understood, but we must of got one of those bulldogs that get everything!!! So I won't get any hopes up until I have a pup in my arms, won't stop me buying everything ready though!! Winston is very much one of our children and treated the same by all of us, lost count how many times my Mr 9 lets him out of his crate at night and we find them snuggled in bed together or at Mr 11 feet eating dinner getting his peas.

Thank you all!! The tail is not very tight so we can get in and clean it. Our Vet who has a lot of experience with Bulldogs (he owns one too) said that it is not that bad to cause damage or operated on hence why I am finding out here what else to use. We have used the melasab (spelling shocking sorry) but might try the rush cream. We have had skin tests done when it is bad to rule out yeast infection and the antibiotics was when he had an ear infection and vet said it might help the tail but we had to treat the ear so it was like a double hit but it did nothing. Our winston has been plagued with issues since birth and I think our breeder will get annoyed if I emailed her with everything, he is over 2 yrs now so this is a problem that has just started in the last couple of months. Okay so will try to find where this vet is and go from there, thank you for the replies.

Okay so my British Bulldog has some tails issues. He has a screw tail and the odour coming from it is terrible and it is also driving him nuts, we have been to the vet and tried the creams, washes and antibiotics but nothing is working it has gotten to a point where he hates it being wiped. Currently I am wiping it twice a day with cooled boiled water with salt and the drying it, this is an effort in itself as we have to pin him down. Any ideas would be gladly welcomed as he has now taken to scratching at night, which in a crate is very noisy...... Thanks in advance.....

We went through this with our pup last year, we went to 2 vets and both said the same thing that he had HD one was without even doing x-rays but for him it was visable when he was walking. We had huge success with the surgery had a check up and his hips are not popping at all now. Don't need to go back for any more check ups just go to our normal vet I understand people feeling the way they do but in our case he did not want to move about. In our case it has not been a money making scheme because we were told on the 6 mth check that he doesn't need to come anymore, I feel the other way a vet that says yes he has that lets leave but I want to see you every 3-6months here is this medication thats more money making as it is $100+ a visit.

Something very similar happened to us and our Baby, we spoke to the breeder and after much thought we kept him, the purchase price was refunded and it paid for the surgery and desexed at the same time. I think that conditions such as desexing is fair enough as you never know what happens even an accidental mating. It does show good faith and in my experience I would not have any problems going back to the same breeder they were caring, gave us options but were not demanding, and let us decide what we wanted to do. The puppy buyers are hurting as well as, like you said they have bonded being demanding or telling them it's this way or on your own will not be fair. And yes it is something that just happens.

I am not free on the 25th either. Same for me any day is good with notice and more so when kids go back!

Doesn't make much sense now some posts have been deleted? Wonder why? Second link was in the breeders community, it was about the pup I was going to buy. here try this http://www.dolforums.com.au/index.php?show...=189681&hl= Hopefully that works.

oh and link to the thread were this so called breeders puppies were discussed. http://www.dolforums.com.au/index.php?show...=190038&hl= and another http://www.dolforums.com.au/index.php?act=...p;hl=&st=75

I did not ring that number I rang another,0403400629. But as we all know prepaid sims are as little as $2 does not take a genius to get a new number. I am aware I live in NSW so did Claire Scholes and her partner in February this year. These so called breeders put a French Bulldog that was infected with parvo on a plane to Melbourne with other dogs and pups from same litter, these so called breeders exposed there pups to a friends litter that were infected with parvo. Claire Scholes was a breeder under or involved with the breeder prefix Janedoe. I was a lucky one and only lost $300 but others lost more in vet bills. I feel it was a shame on the paper running this story without further looking into it, a matter that I have brought up with the paper itself. These people blackmailed me into deleting all posts on here about what was happening with me at the time, I did not because I felt the that others needed to be warned. I still stand by that choice. I quote from the email which I think applies here "Truth does nothings but b******t sells magazines" but in this case newspapers. I have no doubt that the dogs were stolen probably by another they had ripped off or scammed I feel sorry from the mother of the pups but not this family one bit all they have lost is there $$$$ most likely an income the authorities no nothing about. Talk about Karma.

So sorry to hear about the loss of your girl. My thoughts are with you.

I meet the partner and I have spoken with her on the phone. I have received emails from her showing her true colours, they are in it for money full stop.

babylove nappies I think, yep very cute although my bulldog would rather lay there and take it!
