Hallie – In foster – Yorkshire & Humberside

We have a heartbreaking story to share with you this evening…

Last week, we were contacted by a kennels that was supporting the police with a truly heartbreaking animal welfare case. The police attended the property of someone who is banned from owning animals!  For some background, it takes a great deal for someone to receive a ban on owning animals in the UK!

When officers entered the property, they found 17 dogs in the owner’s care. We can’t even begin to imagine the conditions these poor dogs were living in!!

Thankfully we were contacted and able to offer safety to one of them.

Please meet Hallie, one of the 17 dogs seized that day.

You’ll notice that Hallie isn’t a traditional English Bulldog, which is the breed we usually open our doors to. She is a Mammut Bulldog. However, when a dog needs urgent help and a safe place to go, we simply can’t turn them away.

Hallie was collected from the kennels over the weekend by our fabulous volunteer, Allison, from the Yorkshire & Humberside region.

So far, Hallie is settling in well. She has been enjoying her walks and absolutely loves soaking up attention from her foster family. She is still a little unsure of her furry foster siblings, but she’s only just beginning to decompress. We’re hopeful that, as she continues to settle, she’ll soon realise they could become her new best friends.

Surprisingly, Hallie’s overall condition doesn’t appear to be too bad at first glance, aside from being very smelly and having matted fur. We’re hoping it’s nothing that some TLC, proper care, and lots of love can’t fix. As with all of our dogs, Hallie will be visiting the vets for a full health check to make sure she gets everything she needs.

Please join us in giving Hallie the warmest welcome to the Geordie Bullies family.

Please note that Hallie has only just arrived in foster and is not yet available for adoption. Applications are not open at this time, so please don’t attempt to apply for her just yet. We’ll share Hallie’s adoption poster once she has reached the end of her assessment period.
