Maggie and I

To say we've come a long way, well we are really not that bad with each other. You see, I am the number one dog here at the Bulldog & Breakfast Resort. As big as I am, I am quite sensitive and gentle in nature. I have the big dopy kid syndrome and do not know my own strength. However, I haven't a mean bone in my body other than an occasional nip at my dad to let him know I am the boss. Unfortunately I usually get taken down a peg by the Alpha dog Mommy. She is an experienced behavior issue person and has no time for my shenanigans.  Maggie on the other hand, well she wasn't raised in the same environment. She has a bit of an adjustment.

We are very social and outgoing. We do things as a family. We spend quality time together playing, reading and watching bulldog videos. I am loved by many and I am sharing that with my sister Maggie.

Maggie's favorite things are to help bake or cook for the B&B. We are the official food tasters. Mommy is a little worried how close Mags likes to get to the oven, so she isn't allowed near it anymore. I steer clear until the bell rings for the official tasting to commence.

It has been decided that Maggie will probably get her own pink room. Mommy is shopping for a new bed for her and bedding. Mag's loves sleeping in her crate at night, as do I, so I am not sure how that is going to work out.

We did buy Mag's her own suit case yesterday because we are taking a trip. After Mag's visits the vet for her shots this week, we are going to test her flying. Let's hope she has no issues with ear popping.

Love to all my friends and family. Maggie and I are doing good. It's a journey not a sprint.

First night with sister Maggie

After we had our sit down dinner we decided to settle in and tear it up! I mean we had a great time just snarling at each other. I kept hearing my Mommy say "bite him Maggie" as if? What she was really saying was do not take his crap. I bet you my Mommy was a little sister once!

We went to bed in our respective rooms. I went in with the Daddy and Maggie went in with Mommy. Maggie was not settling so she had to sleep in her crate in Mommy's room.

We slept through the night without incident and woke up this morning very happy and refreshed. We both went outside to the fog to do our bidness and quickly returned to take our places at the dining car.

Today is going to be a bit of a challenge. Mommy has a lot of work to do, and Mags and I are probably going to ride shotgun. Oh boy the fun...

We are taking it slow and easy, my sister has a bum leg and some back issues. The suppa smart doc stopped by the house to take a peek at Maggie and we have a small tough road ahead.

Stay tuned...

Welcome my littermate sister Maggie to my house.

Here is Maggie's story. She was born the same day as me, we are littermates. Her Mommy and My Mommy are sisters. We came home on March 17, 2012 from the breeder.

Maggie's Mom was sickly for about a year or so. Unable to walk from Neuropathy and some other issues. Her Mom was in and out of the hospital over a period of time. She became wheelchair bound and her life slowly deteriorated.

Maggie was a daddy's girl, but deep down loved her Mommy. When her Mommy passed away in November, she was lost. We would visit her and take her for visits so she wasn't so lonely. Her Daddy was beside himself, and he has decided to move to NY back to his original roots. Unfortunately, he isn't taking Maggie or her other furry sisters. He asked my Mommy to take Maggie, and we joyfully said yes. Maggie and my Mommy are very close, Maggie loves me Mom.

There was a delay in getting Mags, but today the stars aligned and Aunt Ronnie helped Mommy get it all completed. Mommy's been a little worried how I will react, and in true Gunner fashion, I am being a stinker. I might have bit my Mom.

Please welcome Maggie to the household and Twitter. She has her own Twitter name MagsaMoo3...

Updated: Friends we need your help for a baby Bulldog. Please support GEBR.

 Baby Reese and her littermate need our help. Please help if you can! I am donating a prize package for anyone who donates $10.00 or more to their care. The prize box consists of awesome bulldog item's and I think everyone will like it. Please put in your comments that you were sent by Gunner.


This little bulldog is from my area. Her parents initially bought her and had exhausted all kinds of efforts. 

I was suddenly shocked to see her go to Georgia English Bulldog Rescue from Tampa Bay Florida. This is why we SUPPORT GEBR. Talk about going outside your Area of Responsibility. 

I know I have asked for help before, and we have all really appreciated it, but this baby is suffering and needs constant care to survive. Please dig if you can... I will be putting together a drawing for everyone who donates and all the information, but we need Angels. Please... 

 For Paypal, we can be found under gabullierescue@gmail.com.

2/7/15: Please welcome Reese! She was born 11/15/14. Reese was sold by a breeder at 8 weeks old and went to live with her new forever family. At the time when Reese was sold she was walking, running, and a normal healthy puppy. Approximately 1-week after being in the new families home one morning Reese no longer had the use of her back legs, and poor responsiveness. Her family provided her emergency vet care. X-ray showed inflammation and abnormalities. Vet placed Reese on antibotics. 4 days later Reese new owners contacted the breeder. The breeder and family continued to seek veterinarian help, Reese was not showing improvement after completing antibotics she was seen by the vet again. The vet put her on more antibotics and steriods. By this time Reese is going on 2 weeks of no use of back legs, laying on chest is beginning to cause chest to flatten and effecting front legs. Family seeked a veterinarian specialist opinion. The specialist recommended therapy. 5 days later GEBR was contacted to help provide the physical and medical needs of Reese and she was surrendered to GEBR by the family at the breeders recommendation.

At this time we treating her as a swimmer puppy until seen by veterinarian on Monday. Her chest is flat, poor muscle strength in rear legs, front legs splayed and knuckling. Reese is receiving every 2 hours around the clock therapy, plus harness and legs hobbled.

Update 2/9/15: Reese was seen by Martinez Animal Hospital today. The vet stated she was possibly injured, sore, & in shock. Due to failure of providing proper physical therapy and preventing her of just laying in one spot caused her to decline and reverse into puppy swimmer syndrome. Reese had braces and soft cast placed on both front legs today. Instructed to continue physical therapy, reduce weight, and limit food. Vet expects her to make a full recovery with GEBR providing the weekly vet visits, around the clock therapy she requires at this time.

So here's the plan... Please donate via PayPal to GABULLIERESCUE@GMAIL.COM

In the notes, please say Reese - Twitter.   That way we can keep track of who donated and put their names in the hat for drawing. 

Here's the good stuff...  Portrait from Samantha Dellinger (Artistic Bulldog) renowned Bulldog Artist.  Plus a basket of goodies that any bulldog lover would love. I will put the basket together and shoot a picture, but we have an awesome Frame of Bulldogs, Bulldog Coin, Clothing, pictures and so on and so on... This is a really special one, lets make it rain!!!!

Rescues and Resources...

The love of a bulldog is unmeasurable, I could go on and on about how much love and affection the wrinkle-mess gives. I don't think I could do it justice.

We often see Rescue groups and think that is awesome work. But really do we give them a second thought? I have been blessed with a little extra bone money (we call it my pawallowence) to give a little to the rescues. I think they need more, more, more...

Each one of my friends has a bed to sleep in, a few toys and treats and definitely parents that take them to the Vet on regular visits. For some rescues, that is a life they have never experienced.

We have a few friends on Twitter that are Rescue Hero's. They put their own lives on hold most of the time and take in rescues for the betterment of the dog.

I would like to ask you to help make a difference. On the sidebar are Bulldog Rescues, please consider donating to them.

First up is Illinois English Bulldog Rescue- Magoo  and Crew are volunteers. You can donate monthly, how about just the cost of one latte' reoccurring?

Bullies to the Rescue- What an awesome group... please check them out!!

Buckeye Bulldog Rescue - my personal bestie Rocco and family are huge supporters. They are an awesome group.

Let's not forget Georgia English Bulldog Rescue - They are super busy and always getting in chargee's as we like to call them. Please please please help any and all out.

Do you shop on Amazon? Did you know you can give a little just by shopping? Go to Smile.Amazon and pick out one of these charities and proceeds from your purchases are donated...

Any or all of these rescues need your help!

Look at your furbaby and think, what if I couldn't pay for them? I want you to know, each of these are authentic and the real deal! Please please please consider donating.

Love is in the air....

Valentines Day has always been very special around our house. We love-love. Each year it's a ritual of the gift giving and the card exchanging. This year we are sending out treats and things to our friends again. We were hoping to have a Cupid Gallery of pictures.  No one seems to be interested. So the season of Love is starting. If you are one of our friends, please watch your mail boxes, we are shipping early because of the weather...

Love Gunner...
