Animal House Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 (edited) Don't know how I missed this. Welcome to Jinx Sparkles And Bolt is all growed up How will the 2 boys go once they mature? (bull terriers are known to be a bit picky when it comes to dog friends) I know they say 2 bitches can be bad. I've only ever had male/female for a long time, but many years ago had 2 bitches, one was a Rottie and the other Kelpie x. They never had a problem as they were both soft dogs, real snuggle bugs.

(bull terriers can be a bit picky when it comes to dog friends) I know they say 2 bitches can be bad, just wondered if your two males could go that way too? I've only ever had male/female for a long time, but many years ago had 2 bitches, one was a Rottie and the other Kelpie x. They never had a problem as they were both soft dogs, real snuggle bugs. Ohh poor Bolt, I won't tell her what you said... But she is a girl She was meant to be a boy and Nick already had Bolt picked out, we ended up keeping it even though there were no male pups in the litter! 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Teebs Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 And it's ok, everyone calls her a boy. I just got her a new pink lead but I'm sure it won't help 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Oh geez, and here I was thinking male because of the name. Just tell her I think she looks very pretty, pink collar & maybe name her Bolt Sparkles? 3 Link to post Share on other sites

PossumCorner Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Grass allergy is a misery - would he wear little boots at outside time? Link to post Share on other sites

Sadly Bolt thinks they are great toys and rips them all off!! Now it's gotten cold it's been a bit better, so hopefully we will have a break till spring now and maybe then we can do clothes!!!! 3 Link to post Share on other sites
persephone Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 My Mitchell had a grass allergy as well! he just lived on prednil for most of his life ...... Link to post Share on other sites
Papillon Kisses Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 If it’s an option and you’ve got the insurance/money/time, I think I would seriously consider immunotherapy shots for the grass allergy. In a young dog I imagine there would be considerable payoff in getting it sorted now and not needing as much or any medication and management along the lifespan. Maybe something to ask your vet/dermatologist about. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
