Intake Date: 3/10/2018 Last Update: 4/17/2018 Date Available: 4/20/18 Age: 1 and a half years old DOB: I'm an Autumn Prince born on the tenth day of the month of October in the year 2016! Gender: Handsome man Weight: 47 pounds! Not bad for a little guy with special needs, eh? Energy Level: Medium - I'm a young pup still so I love to play but I'malso a bulldog so I'm a little on the lazy side at times. Color & Markings: I'm black and white, and I have bits of tan! Aren't I just the most handsome? Can go to a home with other dogs: If I go to a home with other dogs it'll have to be a dog smaller than me or very submissive. I need to be the dominant one. I will need to be fed separate from my canine siblings and all their food must be put up or I'll eat theirs too! Can go to a home with cats: I've never been around a cat yet but my foster family thinks I'd do fine. Good with kids: BBR Policy states no children under the age of 8+ so, my ideal home will have: Any home with children ages 8+ is welcome and encouraged to apply! Object Aggression: I will get a little aggressive with another canine only over toys. Special Needs: I have something called Ambulatory paraparesis with moderate proprioceptive ataxia (weak/wobbly pelvic limbs) and Pelvic limb deficits. I have a cart to help me get around if I need it but I haven't had to use it in quite some time. I've been doing really well on my own even though I will sometimes have weakness in my legs. I do take a daily joint supplement to help make me strong. But my new family should be aware that my condition should be monitored by a vet on a regular basis so that any issues that may arise can be taken care of. I also have a very thick and tight wrinkle on my face that will need wiped out daily with malacetic wipes. This is very important and cannot be skipped as infection can grow in that area and no one wants that. Medications: I need my daily joint supplements, I also will need flea and heart worm prevention meds, I also get 2 eye creams in my eyes twice daily for my dry eyes (this is a 2 person job) I am also getting medicated baths until mid May, these baths will not be a permanent thing, just a little something to help my skin! Crate Trained: I am crate trained but still have some accidents in my crate. House Trained: I occasionally have accidents but I know I'm supposed to go outside. I go outside more than I do in. Physical Fence Required: not for me! But if you don't have a Fence it's a good idea to take me out on a leash. I potty outside just fine on my leash! Adoption Donation: $600 Prior to applying to adopt Flash please review our adoption process on our website with rules and process information.

My Ideal Home:
Hey everyone! My name is flash! You may remember me from last year with my cart with wheels! Well I'm back and ready to find my perfect forever home! I'm a very sweet, loving boy. I love your attention and cuddles. I love being outside, and running around. I love playing and I love toys. I am very good motivated and I eat my food very quick! You can get me to do almost anything with a treat! I can go a normal work day in my crate with no accidents. I'm a perfect family dog because I just love my humans! I may be a little special Needs but I still have a long life ahead of me! Do you think I can steal your heart?
Intake info: I'm just a little guy so it's quite a rarity to see a guy like me in rescue! BUT, alas, I don't come without my fair share of issues. After all, they say I was bred for profit and without much regard for temperament and health as most "rare color" bulldogs are. My parents who purchased me didn't know this. They truly believed that they had found a good breeder so they drove hours away to pick me up. I mean, look at me! Who can resist my little face! Unbeknownst to them, I have congenital spinal deformities that have gradually limited my ability to walk by compressing my spine as well as spinal cord that is exposed. After spending a lot of money on me on an MRI, they decided they wanted the best possible outcome for me in hopes of getting me regular water therapy and more so they surrendered me to BBR. I'm gonna need a cart eventually, whatever that means, but sounds like something fun to chew on and I can't wait!
For now, we will take it one day at a time and determine what we can do next for Flash. If you would like to donate to his care, we will definitely need all the support we can get for him!
