My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Before reading about me, please read-up on what it takes to adopt from Chicago English Bulldog Rescue. First and foremost, we ONLY adopt in the Chicago-land area and make no exceptions. View our other Adoption Criteria first. Please consider helping us help the bullies by donating. Click here to donate. If you are in the market for some of the hottest bully gear around, check out our Web store which also supports our bullies! Visit http://cebr.storesecured.com.




5 Year old Rudy originally came from an abusive home but was taken in by a caring older couple who nursed him to become the loving and more balanced dog he is now. Unfortunately, the husband passed away and the wife has to work so Rudy was not getting the attention he needs and deserves. Rudy is 64 lbs (currently on a diet to bring this down). He is up-to-date on his vaccinations, neutered, and has been microchipped.



Rudy is good with other dogs, kids, probably cats (just hasn’t been around them much), baths---in fact there isn’t much he doesn’t love. Rudy is quite mellow, likes to sleep a lot, and has been been a well-mannered dog. He likes to snuggle so be prepared for a 64 lb. lapdog. Medically, Rudy has developed some eye problems and an inverted tail which are both not terribly bad but need to be diligently attended daily. We think once his weight is down he will better negotiate stairs and also be able to breath with a little less obstruction (like most bullies he is a bit of a snorer).



Rudy has shown some food sensitivity in the past. He is on a lamb/rice food and does well with this, so it should be no problem.



Rudy is very good in a crate and can be left for reasonable periods of time, but he would prefer to be around people as much as possible. He likes to walk, is good on a leash, and will sleep soundly after a little exercise. Except for his minor medical issues, Rudy should make an easy transition into just about any situation.



NOTE FROM THE HUMANS

Rudy’s adoption fee is $550. Our adoption criteria for Rudy are as follows:

--Chicago and surrounding suburbs only. NO EXCEPTIONS.

--Willing to keep up with cleaning his eyes and tail

--Should continue to bring his weight down to a more healthy level

--Prepared to give some snuggle time




Because we receive so many inquiries about our dogs, we’re sorry to say that we can’t follow up on all them. If you are interested in adopting any of our bullies, please complete an application by visiting www.ebullymatch.com and click on Apply To Adopt.
