Toffee & Treacle – In Foster – Midlands

English Bulldog · Female · Puppy · 4 months

At the start of this week, two beautiful girls arrived into our care with truly heartbreaking stories. Please welcome 5-year-old Treacle and 5-year-old Toffee to the Geordie Bullies family. The girls were handed over to local kennels by their owner after supposedly needing to move house and being unable to take them along. However, we have since learned they had been living outside in kennels, and after seeing the condition they arrived in, we sadly believe there is far more to their story. Treacle and Toffee have now joined Bonita and her family in the Midlands, where they are slowly beginning to experience the comfort, warmth, and safety of a real home environment. Unsurprisingly, both girls arrived extremely stressed and overwhelmed, and it may even be their first time properly living inside a family home. Everything is new to them — the people, the love, the routine, the comfort — but with patience, reassurance, and plenty of TLC, they are already beginning to settle beautifully. The girls especially love spending time in the garden and have been happily sharing their space, under supervision, with the resident dogs. Watching them slowly relax and start to feel safe has already been incredibly emotional. We were very concerned about both girls’ health, so they visited the vets yesterday for full health checks. Treacle is suffering from severe dry eye and mild entropion. Her eyes were checked for ulcers, but sadly the cloudiness appears to be scarring caused by her condition being left untreated for far too long. We were also concerned about her breathing, and she may require BOAS surgery, although she will need further assessments to determine the severity and whether surgery will definitely be needed. Toffee’s skin is currently red, sore, and extremely yeasty. She has now been prescribed medication to help get her skin and allergies under control and, with the right treatment and lots of love, we are hopeful she will soon begin feeling far more comfortable and happy. It is also heartbreakingly clear that both girls have previously been used for breeding. From their condition and the circumstances they came from, we believe they may have spent much of their lives being used to produce puppies for profit before being discarded as though they meant nothing. But that life is behind them now. Treacle and Toffee, welcome to your Geordie Bullies family. From this day forward, you will only ever know love, safety, comfort, and kindness. We cannot wait to watch you both heal, thrive, and finally enjoy the happy lives you have always deserved.

About Toffee & Treacle – In Foster – Midlands

What life with Toffee & Treacle – In Foster – Midlands looks like

Toffee & Treacle – In Foster – Midlands is a puppy/kitten english bulldog dog waiting at Geordie Bullies Springboard Rescue in United Kingdom.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

Frequently asked

Adopting Toffee & Treacle – In Foster – Midlands, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Toffee & Treacle – In Foster – Midlands?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Geordie Bullies Springboard Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Toffee & Treacle – In Foster – Midlands on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Toffee & Treacle – In Foster – Midlands if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Geordie Bullies Springboard Rescue will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Toffee & Treacle – In Foster – Midlands already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Toffee & Treacle – In Foster – Midlands isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Geordie Bullies Springboard Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Toffee & Treacle – In Foster – Midlands and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
