Archie the bulldogThis is a featured page

Archie the Bulldog! My wife and I have always wanted an English Bulldog, and up until about 2 months ago that seemed like it would never happen due to the price of these fine puppies. We found Archie in the local paper, and it stated that he had a skin condition. The daughter of the family seemed to be having allergic reactions to him, so he had to go. The asking price for a 9 month English Bully was $550.00. I called and spoke to the family about Archie, and they said we could come by and pick him up tht day for $200.00. When we arrived at the home where Archie was living, he had very little hair left on his body. We asked what was wrong with him, and the family noted that the Vet said it was a normal condition. Archie looked very sad, and my wife fell in love with him immediatly. The next day we took him straight to the vet, and immediatly our Vet diagnosed him with a case of demodex (red mange). We were worried about losing a dog that we spent $200.00 dollars on, but the Vet asured us he could treat it. We treated him for 5 straight weeks, and the demodex went away and has not returned. Archie is very playful and loves our children. I believe he knows that we helped him get back to a normal healthy dog. Archie is a great addition to our family.

Hi there, Archie! Glad to have you join us! You look like one big dude! Glad that everything worked out with Archie and that he's happy and healthy! I love the English Bulldog personality and I really love to watch the way they move! At least the one that I got to spend some time with was like one HUGE lap dog. Is Archie the same way?
