Hi all
I havent posted for a while but thought I would let you know how I am getting on with Albert. Well we have been having him every sat and sund still and love him more and more each week. He gets so excited when we come to pick him up and now trys to jump straight into the back of the car (it used to bea real struggle). We have been taking for short walks around public wood/parks and is an angle with all peopl. children and dogs and he gets lots of ah's and smiles. I never realised how much they slobber, from being used to Vizsla's Weimaraners and Retreivers he is quite different but is great. He is getting really playful now and putting him back in his kennel at the end of the day is quite heartbreaking.

Also I think he looks underweight you can really see him ribs and he is quite narrow around his waist/top of hind quaters. I really dont think he is getting enough to eat. As far as I know he is getting two large scoops of dried adult/large breed dog food, which I really dont feel is enough and it dosen't look like enough either.

Our house is coming alondg quikly now and we are trying to get in there asap so we can have Albert asap.

Thanks so much for all you bully bumpf MARI I cant get enough of it so pls pls do keep it coming to sophie_connell@linone.net. Also if anyone has any pics th send me I would love to see them - I will take some of Alby this weekend.

Speak soon

Hi Sophie,
Sounds like Albert's desperate to join you :)

You'll just need to move in to your house as quick as you can. I bet you will too :) I bet you move in quicker than you planned, long before it's ready :) :D :D

I'm glad things are going well. It's bound to help Albert too. He's probably getting used to your visits and it'll help him get through the week knowing he'll get taken out at the w/end.

Thanks Dot what do you think about the food worries I have?

Hi Sophie,
Mari or Sharon would know better since they've got Bullies but it sounds like he's maybe thin. You should go with your gut instincts because I don't know what you could do just now. ie. Is he maybe being underfed hoping that you'll pay for his feed just now? Sorry I'm not much help.
Dot

There is little you can do now Sophie untill you have him . I would worm him and start him on tripe and biscuit untill he puts weight on .
For now I cant tell you anymore.
I will stay in touch with you when you have the boy and will do all I can to help you then
Mari

Hi Sophie, if you can e-mail the pics of Alby to Mari & me we could give you abteer idea about his weight. Glad you and he are so happy about the move - hope it happens soon for both of you. :)
