Once upon a time, a little girl loved all the little puppies.

That girl is no longer with us. We lost Sav Bell to her mental health struggles on January 5, 2025.

In her memory, I have created a new kind of social network for connecting over shared experiences in our lives. I Was There has threads for events and moments in our lives and I hope you will join me there. To honour Savannah, subscription proceeds will go to charity starting with the United Way of Bruce Grey.

This summer I am driving coast to coast in my Dodge Share-A-Van to share hers and my stories and invite people to join the app to share their own.

Please use the coupon code SHARE for a free month subscription to access premium features and check it out!

Great visual on how to properly trim dog nails. Bulldogs are especially prone to abnormal and excessively long nails! I found standing over the dog's waist, securing it between my legs, worked well for clipping. Don't forget the styptic powder to staunch the blood flow if you cut to the quick!

In winter trim just after the dog comes in from the cold because their claws will be less sensitive and less blood flows to the area!

If you have ever wondered about trimming your dog's nails or worried you might hurt them. Great diagram.

One year ago today I received a (partial) explanation for the debilitating symptoms which began to plague me in 2011. From the downy fine hair on my head to my slender webbed toes, many things about me were likely caused by the collagen defect which gives rise to the collection of traits known as Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I have a probable diagnosis of the hypermobility type of EDS.

For most of my life hypermobility was a blessing and boon until repeated infections likely triggered a degradation of my defective collagen. That laxity now makes fighting gravity a chore on a daily basis, some days more than others.

EDS is an invisible illness. Diagnosis is challenging because not only is it considered rare but expressed so differently in every affected individual that no two people, even in the same family, necessarily have the same traits.

I will never be able to manage the daily responsibilities of operating a kennel but still love and miss the connection of people who bought my dogs and became my friends.

Thanks for listening!

EDS Canada provides knowledge, advocacy and support to individuals and their families living with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.

Twenty years ago today, Barlees Troubull Bruin had nine puppies delivered by C-Section, sired by Ch. Chadklier's Tucker Lad. This was our first litter, from which eight puppies survived and most lived well into their second decade including Bruin.

Thanks to all our colleagues and puppy owners for all the wonderful memories and connections made over the years.

If you fed your dog anything produced by Blue Diamond pet foods, including the Kirkland brands sold at Costco, you will want to check this out. And, we at Adoreabull Bulldogs finally have an answer not only to what was affecting our dogs' health in 2012, leading to the closing of our doors, but also most likely is responsible for the sudden arthritis symptoms experienced by me attributable to reactive arthritis from chronic exposure to salmonella.

Now we're hanging out the laundry, LOL! Tammy McAllister and Vickie Umpleby (http://www.nonniesbulldogs.ca/index.htm) have made room at their homes for Paris, Owen and Contraband, including Paris' five little girls sired by AKC/CKC Ch. Just Braveheart Mr Magic.

Check out more pictures on Tammy's website, www.bulldaciousbulldogs.com. Feel free to contact Tammy or Vickie for more information, as one little girl is still available.
