Gerty – 2 year old female Old Tyme Bulldog

Gerty is a wonderful 2 year old female Old Tyme Bulldog who we have been asked to help find a home. She is what they used to call a ‘handsome lady’ in the old days. Initially quiet around new people, she does come out of her shell once she gets to know you and then you get to see her loving and playful side.

Gerty really enjoys her walks (ideally on soft ground) and she likes saying hello to other dogs, but most of all Gerty is at her happiest when she has her tennis ball.

Gerty will need on-going skin care which will need to be discussed with the Battersea Clinic. A new home with older teenagers would be a possible match. Gerty is good with dogs and can potentially live with the right match.

Gerty isn’t too fond of being in the public viewing kennels, and seems to get missed out! She’s a super super girl, who comes up to see me when I visit, and enjoys a cuddle, I’ve been very much taken with her, and if I didn’t have a house full of Corsos I’d foster her myself. I think she’d make a retired but active couple a very fine companion but the staff at Battersea have the full package on her rehome info. Just to mention, she’s not as large as she looks in her pictures, she’s certainly solid, but not huge. She’s one of their longest stay residents, and deserves a happy home.

For more info about Gerty please contact Nicola, her rescue co-ordinator on 020 7627 9231 or breedrescue@battersea.org.uk
