I became the momma of an adorable Old English Bulldog named Ollie about 6 months ago and I can tell you from first hand experience that having a fur baby is a wild. Freakin. Ride.

From the moment I saw his scrunched up nose and big giant bear paws, I knew I was in trouble, I just couldn't leave without taking him with me. I knew it was a big responsibility, and if you met my puppers you'd understand just how big I'm talking, but I also knew that he'd be the best responsibility I'd ever take on. Since that day half a year ago, I've learned a lot about being a four legged friend's human and I figured I'd share some with you. So if you're thinking about adopting a doggo, especially a big doggo, heres some things you should probably be aware of.
