    Hello Ralf!

    Oh my look at your handsome self, looking quite the debonaire lad in the photos! Your gray and white markings really are quite distinguished looking. (Sorry if it is called 'blue' the American Bulldogs).

    Seems you got shuffled around a bit as a baby, but you landed in a good place by age 13 weeks, so you may not remember too much about that. Being sick with a UTI that is NOT a good thing, and taking a year to get you all sorted, well! You are such a good boy for hanging in there and letting these nice folks work with you and your vets to find what will keep you healthy. Good job, fella! And kudos to your family as well.

    A soppy dog? He heee, well, I guess that goes with the breed, many American bulldogs are! Slobber and drool and cuddling and goofy and a nice family sort, that would be you, Ralf! Enjoy your day, today and every day. Oh what am I saying, this is Ralf, he makes EVERY day fun!

    Well, hello, Ralf! You are a survivor aren't you?? It does take a special animal to endure trying to be adopted while having a serious illness; I know - I have one as well. It just speaks to your character that you could be able to convince your family what a special doggie you are while enduring pain.

    I hope you're having a well deserved super DOTD celebration with your adopted family who loves you so much! So nice to meet you today!
