Judi Jubilee's gems
We want to send out big hugs to our supporters for showering us with puppy supplies and donations for foster girl Judi Jubilee and her little ones. Her foster family is still working around the clock to ensure everyone continues to thrive.
In case you missed it, soon after pulling Judi from a shelter, we learned she was actually pregnant. After intense monitoring, her foster family got her in for a C-section at just the right time. There were nine puppies; however, one was a water puppy and two died a few days later.
Judi Jubilee is doing well, managing the demands of motherhood like a pro. She's benefiting from a pumpkin supplement and fatty acids to keep her coat in top shape and is voraciously eating to keep up with the puppies' needs—she's consuming at least six cups of kibble a day, plus free feeding.
If you'd like to help out, we've added Judi Jubilee's food to our Amazon Wish List. You can find the list at dfwbulldogrescue.org/donate.
Please note, our primary focus is on the pups' daily care and their immediate needs. While it's too early to talk about adoption, we do have pre-approved families on standby, ready to welcome a pup IF or when the time comes.
We're posting regular updates on our Facebook page, if you'd like to follow the pups' journey. We appreciate your prayers and good vibes. They are needed. ♥

Chillin' like a Bulldog
We wanted to send out a special thanks to our friend Vivian for her beautiful artwork that we showcased on our summer T-shirt.
Vivian is an 11-year-old artist from Austin, Texas. Inspired by her beloved Bulldog Veya, a Lone Star Bulldog Club Rescue alumna, Vivian created this artwork using colored pencils and paint.
If you'd like to snag a shirt with Vivian's masterpiece, check out this site. Also, we plan to have note card sets with the art available for purchase at Bull-O-Ween. You rock, Vivian!

A look back at our breed
From the United Kingdom, this beautiful gal is Ch. Silent Duchess, born in 1904. She was highly regarded and featured on the cover of "Bulldogs and Bulldog Men," originally published in 1905 (we found a copy online for $750 if anyone is interested!) Thank you to our friend Elizabeth for sharing this historical info.

Thank you, Brandi!
We want to give our friend Brandi a round of thanks for hosting the recent Pampered Chef fundraiser for our program. With our supporters' help, we hit the $500 mark and she'll be donating a basket for our Bull-O-Ween silent auction table. Brandi chose to support us because she appreciates the meticulous vetting and application process of our rescue, which ensures that every Bulldog placed is matched with a family who understands and is prepared for the breed’s needs. Thanks so much for your generosity, Brandi!

Hawkins and Hazel Bloom update
From their foster momma: A few weeks ago, the twins, Hazel Bloom and Hawkins, visited the cardiologist, and unfortunately, the news wasn’t what we had hoped for.
It’s clear that Hawkins is in a more critical state than Hazel. Both are not candidates for surgery, which also means they won’t be undergoing spay or neuter procedures.
Hawkins' heart is particularly vulnerable and could enter arrhythmia at any moment. Hazel has tested positive for heartworms in addition to her heart condition; however, the echocardiogram did not detect any active heartworms. She will remain on heartworm prevention and will be retested in six months.
| |
Although neither Hazel nor Hawkins is expected to have a long life, our rescue is committed to ensuring they enjoy the best quality of life possible for as long as they can. | |

Let's introduce you to some of
our other foster dogs

If you are interested in adoption, you must first fill out an adoption application, which can be found on our website. The application lets us know what you're looking for and if you are approved, we can help determine which one of our dogs may work best for your family. | |
