Our Little Lady

Meet our family's Bulldog, 'Honey Bee's Lady of Charleston,' aka "Lady"
Since Lady will one day be a mommy bulldog, we felt it only appropriate that we document her puppy years and beyond online in a place where the future owners of her pups have easy access to information on Lady, quick access to information on this adorable breed, and of course, an easy way to ask questions should they arise!
For now though, at only 14weeks old, Lady is only a puppy herself, and quite some time away from needing to worry about having some of her own! Until then however, we will update on her growth, milestones, etc. along with posting some information on the breed to benefit our future puppy owners!

Some background on Lady...

  
Lady at 1 week old
 
Lady came from a small private breeder in Florida, who also happens to be a good friend of mine.  She has one female bulldog, Daisy, and strives to breed quality bulldogs. Daisy was bred to a champion bulldog, (whom I will post pictures on when I get the link!) and on February 8th, 2013 seven beautiful pups were born via C-section. (Fun Fact: Bulldogs rarely give birth naturally, a C-section is much safer for momma & pups) 8 short weeks later, Lady came to live with us in Charleston, SC. Lady lives with my husband and myself, as well as our 4 year old son who she adores. We also have a 100lb Labrador, Cam, who she is best friends with, and a cat named Spartacus, who she loves to play with and bark at for hours on end.


Vet appointments...

Since coming home Lady has had two vet appointments for her vaccines, and will be fully legal after receiving her last set and rabies shot in another 2 weeks. At the most recent appointment (4 days ago) lady weighed in at 19lbs 4oz. Her hips, demeanor, and overall health continue to check out well as does her crate training and house training - Lady has made it two weeks without any accidents that were her fault (technically two have happened but we were most definitely to blame) - YAY! Despite some chewing habits that have picked up over the past week (thanks to her losing her baby teeth) we couldn't be happier! Stay tuned for more updates!
