Baby Moses Update - A Little Mo Moe ! (Pic's)

Baby Mo is still doing great and feeling more at home every day. He has started playing with his new squeaky toys along with the stuffies. Lady enjoys grabbing any toy he is playing with and running with it. He of course has to chase her down and get it back, which is not very easy for him sometimes. These little games are helping to strengthen the muscles in his legs and hips. Sometimes it gets a little dangerous with both of them running like wild dogs, but at least he is having fun !

Enjoying playing with all of his toys


This red and blue ball just amazes him !


Fetching the squeaky newspaper toy.

Thanks for looking.

Baby Moses - Day 28 - Wearing His Red Tee Shirt

Today is day 28 of Baby Moses rescue. He has come a long way in a short time. The muscles are building in his legs and the pads on his feet are healing and getting tougher. His skin is still a little tender from the pyoderma, hopefully in a few months this will completely under control. He has thick fuzz growing on his legs and his face and is looking and acting more like a bulldog. He and Lady play like two puppies and that has helped to bring out his personality and spirit. He has also learned to sit on command and will give you his paw in exchange for a treat. When the rest of the bullies walk together as a pack in the evenings, he is right there with them. No agression issues so far.

Thanks for looking and hope you enjoy the pictures!

Baby Mo looking Tough in his red UGA Tee Shirt


"My mommie found this for me to wear this fall on Saturdays when UGA the bulldog is on TV."


"My daddy says those are not the correct colors to wear and I need a different color Tee Shirt."


"This is what Mommie thinks of my dad's opinion." "She says it is just a game to enjoy watching with good friends and we just want everyone to play safe and not get hurt."


"Frankly, it's too hot to wear tee shirts." "I'd rather run around naked!"

Baby Moses Update -Lady works her magic and my living room turned into the Bully 500....

Lady grabbed Mo's Budda Bird last night and took off with it. I thought about taking it away from her and then decided to see if Baby Mo showed any agression since he loves his toys so much. He chased her, and she growled, then he would bark at her and she would tease him to make him chase her some more. I had two very tired bullies last night that snored their hearts out.

Here is how it started:



















I think they would have chased each other and played all night long !

Baby Moses Update - 22 Days - Lady Is Now His New Best Bud ! (Pic's)

Baby Mo is doing great. While I was gone to the dog show in Pigeon Forge, he and Lady became best buddies. They had already played together a few times, and with my mothers dog re-homed, he could be baby-gated with Lady in the kitchen. All it took was a cute little female to bring out his personality and playfulness. Twice, he has joined late evening walks in the yard with Odie, Lady, and Millie. So far,there has not been any agression issues between he and Odie. He is still getting used to the place and can never seem to get enough food to eat even with three meals a day and snacks.

Here are a few pictures by himself and with Lady.

He is getting more muscular and more hair is coming in on his bald spots.


Patches of new hair growth can be seen on top of his head.


Waiting for a treat.


He loves to play with Lady and watches every move she makes.

Baby Moses sends another Big THANK YOU to Jannette Burns for a very sweet and special gift

Jannette took one of Mo's pictures and designed the sticker for this tin of mints and called them Mo-Mints !!



She also wrote a brief summary of Mo's rescue for the sticker on the back.



Thank you Jannette for a very sweet Mo-Mento of Baby Mose's rescue.

Baby Moses Sends Another BIG THANK YOU to Lana and Gina ................................

Baby Moses is totally enjoying he new toys. The soft stuffies are his favorites right now. For some reason, he has not gotten very interested in balls and sqeaky toys. But I am sure in time he will and will drive us crazy.

These are all the nice things that Gina and Lana sent.


Checking out his new presents.


He hasn't quite figured out what all these toys are for.


Rolling the sqeaky ball.


Checking out the soft giraffe stuffie.


Getting a little serious with the giraffe stuffie.


"Thank you Miss Gina and Lana!" "I love all my presents!"


I think the boy me be getting a little spoiled !! LOL !

Baby Moses Update and a BIG THANK YOU to Kim M.,Tonka, Dozier,Cassidy, Diesel, and Bianca

Baby Moses went back to the vet yesterday to be dipped and weighed. He is now 58 lbs. I think he weighed around 45 lbs when he was rescued. The dip makes him a little sleepy and Kim has been educating me on the use of ivermectin for his Demodex. I am going to ask his vet about this and see if he is familiar with it.

Little Mo was a little apprehensive about going to the vet. He would not walk to the truck so I had to tote him and sit him in the seat. Once we got back, he was a happy camper and we let him play with Lady for a few minutes. When he plays with her, he bounces around and acts like a big clown. Nothing like a cute little female to bring out the silliness in a shy male.

Thank you Kim for the Shampoo, medicated wipes, and ear cleaner. I hope you like the picture.

Lisa and Baby Moses


Baby Moses says, "Thank you Miss Kim M.,Tonka, Dozier,Cassidy, Diesel, and Bianca." "My mom says lots of people care about me and have been praying for me to get better and that all this good stuff will help me to do that."

Baby Moses - Day 14 - Socializing with Lady

Today is two full weeks since Baby Moses was rescued. Over these two weeks all of you have watched him make tremendous progress healing physically and emotionally. Early this morning he was allowed to socialize and play with Lady. They did very well together sniffing each other and playing. So far, there has been no agression or bad behavior from Baby Mo.

Even though he has come a long way recovering from the horrible neglect he has been through, these photos will show how far he still has to go to becoming a healthy bulldog once again.

I hope you enjoy the pictures and I look forward to your comments. Any advise from those of you who have vast knowledge and experience working with rescue bullys would be greatly appreciated.



Moses says, "Hello Beautiful Lady, would you like to come over to my place and check out my new stuffies and get to know each other better?"


"We could share some of my kibble and munch on doggy biscuits while I whisper sweet nothings in your ears."


Lady says, "Your full of POOP!" "You need to take a little business trip over by the fence and get rid of some of it." "And as far as the sweet nothings go, I'd probably just wind up with an ear full of slobber."


Moses says, "Well then, please tell me what I can do to win your sweet affections my sweet little sugar booger boo."


Lady says, "Well, you smell a little funky, so for starters a bath might help." "Also, I like my bully men to have a full head of hair."


Lady says, "I have to go, I think I hear my mama calling me to breakfast."


Moses says, "WOMEN!!" "You can't please them and you're not allowed to sell them on EBAY!" ("Anybody know where I can get a wig and a bottle of cologne?")

Baby Moses - Day 12 - Wearing his New Auburn Tee Shirt

It is still too hot to let the bullys out for more than a few minutes. Baby Mo got a bath last night and got the zoomies and started showing out. He is doing so much better. Still some places on this head that are scabed over, but they look better everyday.

Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Looking like a tough Auburn Bully Tiger in his tee shirt.


Looking like he is not really sure what being an Auburn Bully Tiger is all about but if it involves food he is all for it !


Playing with converting to greyscale.


Waiting on someone to take him on a business trip and fix his breakfast.


Being a mama's baby and getting some loving.
