Just fetched my bulldog Nell back from the vets, had a caesarean, just one male puppy about twice the size he should be,

The vet nurse asked what I would call him-----I said how does "Billy no mates" sound, she gave me a slap round the head :laughs:

nowt worse than having a singleton pup to raise, gonna end up a spoilt mardy little swine :grin:

I saw the thread title and wondered if Kev had been to get himself 'doctored'...

Neville would be a nice name for a pup. :grin:

couldn't possibly call him any of those dreadful names----he might be a sensitive little soul like me :wink:

plus it would be very tempting to kick him up the a**e :laughs:

he's doing very well at the moment, guzzling on his bottle, his mum dosnt want anything to do with him which happens quite a bit with caesarean births, she is just lying on the settee giving me the dead eye and looking offended (cos Ive just stuffed some tablets down her) :laughs:

when picking a dogs name its important to first try shouting --- " (dogs name) come here"---- and see how it sounds or if it makes you look a right div


"google come here" dosnt quite cut it :laughs:

I would be honoured but I have never met his mum so any claim for maintenance will be fought! I think Kev will make a good dad and the resemblance will be uncanny :grin:

Just one of those things, seen it happen so many times especially when hand rearing. Seemingly healthy vibrant pups just go downhill and a whole litter can die in 24 hours, not much you can do at such a young age, pump them full of Synulox (anti biotic) keep them warm and hydrated and hope for the best. Brachycephalic breeds are notorious for fading puppy syndrome.
Thanks for the sympathies, he was a cracking looking pup.
