How to Rescue a Bulldog
- 1). Visit the The Bulldog Club of America Rescue Network website. The organization has information about bulldogs all over the country that are looking for new homes. In addition to having information about finding a bulldog for rescue, the website also has information about purchasing bulldog puppies that will assist you if you decide that a bulldog puppy is better suited to your family instead of a rescued adult.
- 2). Fill out the application that is provided by The Bulldog Club of America Rescue Network. Since the organization relies on this application to match you with the perfect bulldog, it is critical that all the information you provide is accurate.
- 3). After you have been approved as a perspective parent for a rescue bulldog you will be provided with information about a bulldog that the organization feels will be a perfect addition to your family. When you are provided with this information make sure you ask lots of questions about the dog's personality, physical health, and history.
- 4). Visit the dog. Make sure you bring your dog to meet the dog, it is important that everyone that will be living in the house gets along with the dog.
- 5). Make sure your house is set up to make the dog's transition to its new home as smooth and stress free as possible. Lock any of your other dogs in a separate section of the house and keep them away from your new bulldog until it has relaxed in its new environment. Provide your dog with the same type of food that it is accustomed to eating so that you don't disrupt its digestive system. Spend lots of time reassuring your new dog that it is loved an a valued member of your family.
