Teddy – 7 year old male English Bulldog

Meet Teddy, a glorious 7-year-old English Bulldog currently living it up in his foster home in Newmarket, Suffolk — surrounded by toys, soft beds, and a fan club of humans who absolutely adore him. Now he’s ready for his forever family!

Teddy is a big-hearted, sofa-loving goofball who’s as chill as they come. He’s perfectly fine being left for 4–5 hours, making him a great match for someone who works part time — or even full time, if he gets a midday break for cuddles and garden time.

This big squishy gentleman needs to be the only dog in the home. He can be a bit of a “tough guy” around other males (his version of a headbutt test), though he’s more relaxed with females and small dogs. He hasn’t lived with cats, so a cat-free home is best.

Teddy would love to share his home with older, sensible kids (12+) who understand that Bulldogs are not built for chaos. He enjoys attention, playtime, and being doted on like the king he is.

When it comes to walks, Teddy’s style is short and sweet. A couple of gentle 15–30 minute strolls per day will do, with extra caution in warm weather — his breed isn’t built for the heat. Luckily, he also loves a car ride, looking absolutely regal while cruising around town.

Teddy’s favorite pastimes? Sleeping, playing, and absolutely annihilating tennis balls. He currently sleeps in his own bed in the bedroom — a good boy who likes being close to his humans.

Health Notes:
Teddy is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, wormed, and flea treated. His foster carer and vet team have done an incredible job getting him into great shape. His adopters must be committed to keeping up his care routine.

  • BOAS (airway check): Grade 1 (no surgery needed — great news!)

  • Allergies: Managed with a daily 16mg Apoquel tablet. Teddy must remain on a strict hypoallergenic diet (Royal Canin Anallergenic food).

  • Skin & Ear Care:

    • Ears: Cleaned twice weekly with Peptivet drops.

    • Paws & skin folds: Wiped twice daily with CLX wipes.

    • Cortavance spray every other day between pads.

    • If paws flare, he has steroid cream to manage irritation.

  • Eyes: Prone to ulcers; needs gentle monitoring.

  • Regular maintenance: Twice-daily cleaning of his adorable face folds and toes to prevent infection.

Teddy’s health is stable and well-managed — he’s proof that with proper care, Bulldogs can live happy, comfortable lives. His new family must be ready to continue this consistent routine with love and diligence.

Teddy’s Ideal Home:

  • Cat-free household

  • No other dogs (happiest as the only pet)

  • Older, calm children (12+) welcome

  • Owners home part-time or full-time with a midday break

  • Short daily walks and plenty of comfy nap spots

Teddy’s a total sweetheart who just wants affection, structure, and a sofa to claim as his throne.

Phoebe 1-2 year old female Shepherd Cross

Image
Phoebe is a 1-2 year old female Shepherd Cross. She sleeps downstairs in a large crate with the door open. Her current owner has been sleeping downstairs with her. She will sometimes wake during the night to make her home aware she needs the toilet. Phoebe wakes up most mornings at 6 am. Phoebe is happy to be groomed/brushed by the female in the home. Phoebe enjoys going out into the garden to sniff around and explore. She goes out on a slip lead with no issues. Phoebe has yet to go for a proper walk due to her building her confidence in the garden first and getting used to the lead. It is encouraged that she should wear a harness but this has yet to be introduced. Positive reward training and allowing Phoebe to explore the harness initially will need to be carried out. She hasn’t been left unattended in the home since arrival so correct training around leaving her for short periods will be vital to prevent anxiety behaviours. Phoebe listens to commands well and will sit for treat...

Pet Friendly San Antonio: Exploring The River Walk & Beyond

Image
San Antonio is a fun, pet friendly vacation destination. With the famous River Walk park stretching 15 miles, you’ll love exploring all the neighborhoods and historic sites along the way!   Founded as a Spanish mission and colonial outpost in 1718, San Antonio became the first chartered civil settlement in present-day Texas in 1731. For the history buffs among us, there’s a lot to see! Now San Antonio is among the nation’s fastest-growing cities. But the downtown area is still easily walkable with your pet. And our favorite way to explore the city is on foot (and paw). San Antonio’s Pet Friendly River Walk Ages ago, when Rod and I first visited the San Antonio, the River Walk was a fun, slightly seedy, tourist destination. Since then, initiatives have extended and beautified this spectacular urban oasis. The original U-shaped section, packed with bars, restaurants, hotels, and crowds, still anchors the River Walk. But now the park stretches runs 15 miles, following the cou...

Dog Friendly Beaches On The Florida Panhandle

Specifically, the stretch of coastline from Mexico Beach to St. Marks, affectionately known as “the Forgotten Coast” . In this relatively quiet, undeveloped area of the Florida Panhandle you’ll find laid-back attitudes, friendly locals, gorgeous white sand beaches, Car...
