Lets Talk English Bulldogs by Nightingale Bullies
59English Bulldog Health
It is VERY important to find a vet who knows and specializes in english bulldogs.
Why I say this is because many vets will miss diagnose your english bulldog with a typical cold and it can be full blown pneumonia. I know because it has happened to me and many others. The vet sent me home with Clavamox and told me to give 2 tablets daily and I did for 3 days. I noticed that my english bulldog Bella wasnt getting any better so I called him back and said she is worse and not eating now. He said bring her in and she was in stage 4 with pneumonia. She ended up having to be hospitalized and was put on iv fluids. It took my poor Bella almost 2 weeks to recover and the most scariest time of my life. I ended up changing vets needless to say. So, please make sure they know that respiratory infection are VERY serious in bulldogs and should not be OVERLOOKED! It is so important.

Tank is a 16 month old bullie. He is like a child to my fiancé and myself. A month ago he had a seizure and another two days ago. After many test we found out he has pneumonia. We are waiting on results to see if it's fungal or asperated. It's a burden on us right now and we just want him to be well. He's on clavamox and we are doing at home steam treatments. The vets don't want to do anything further until lab results come back. Cam you think of anything we can do to help him get better?
