The Bulldogsworld Railroad
The Bulldogsworld Railroad is a rescue transport team of volunteers from the bulldogsworld family, who have organized to help rescued bulldogs reach their decided rescue destinations.
Over the past years, it has become evident that the caring and loving members of the bulldogsworld family are ready and willing to come to the aid of bulldogs in need. There has been a recent out-pouring of interest in helping national bulldog rescuers transport dogs to rescues, fosters, and forever homes that the dogs would otherwise not make their destinations due to distance factors.
We have decided to take our successful efforts and collaboration thus far to a higher level and create
"The Bulldogsworld Railroad" as a team to help those bullies reach their destinations safely.
If you feel like you would like to volunteer (in your area) to drive a bulldog to a destination - please complete the below form. You can indicate how far you are willing to drive to meet another rescuer to help complete a transport. If you are unable to provide transport help, but still would love to contribute to helping rescues - donate money to your local bulldog club..
Also your emotional support ,prayers and cheering-on the transporters is welcomed and appreciated! These are the things that makes Bulldogsworld family who they are and is an invaluable part of the successes... AND THAT IS TRULY what sets us apart .
Although many of our volunteers do work with bulldog rescue organizations, our transport team "DOES NOT" facilitate adoptions of rescues. We are glad to refer anyone to our volunteers who collaborate with organizations and can help you find a perfect bully rescue to complete your family.

Chubbi and Moose were successfully transported from Staten island in January, 2004 to their foster homes in Ohio! We could have never done it without the quick support and help from our bulldogsworld members! These two lovable seniors had a fun journey to their foster due to the devoted efforts of several willing drivers.
.
Mardi Gras was successfully transported from Iowa to Florida in November of 2003 by a team of BDW members.
She is now in her forever home and owns the hearts of her new family in Florida.
HOPE,
Hope gave us all Hope...
She was in terrible condition when rescued. Despite every attempt at saving her life, it was not to be. She had a calling to move on to the special place, over the rainbow, where she could be healthy and happy again. We have never seen a more loving bulldog and one in such bad shape. Hope took many people's heart with her in the short time she was with us. At least she had peace her final days and was loved by people who cared. She will always hold a special place in the hearts of many and has taught us all that there is always "Hope"
PLEASE NOTE - we are a group of volunteers with no club affiliations operating independantly of any other efforts or clubs. BulldogsWorld.com is a proud part of this railroad. if you have any questions please email , Chairperons below.

Sara,
des moines, IA, 08/04/04; sara was purchased by some folks who answered a newspaper ad placed by a breeder who no longer needed her services as she is approximately 6 y/o. two other females were listed with her. her family at that time included a young male bully, hmmmmmm. she never successfully bred with this fellow and, again, deemed unnecessary. she had been in this situation about a year and was ADORED by a 12 y/o girl whom sara would sleep with. when the breeding didn't take, dad said there was no longer room for sara in the new house. mom and her daughter did what they could to make sara comfortable out in the garage, but decided they needed to do something with winter approaching. a rescue gal named linda s. of des moines was contacted and found a potential family for sara. she was spayed and sent to her new home. these folks wanted a play dog for their kids. well, sara will never be able to play, or take walks on her own. she needs a knee repaired, which her new mom.
lynn k will take care of, and has terribly soft shoulders, walking is very hard for her, but give her credit, she can motor, it's not pretty, but she does.. this new family was in the quad cities area of iowa, a 4 hour journey, one way, from des moines. judy j and linda p came to her aid there. she was with the family awhile before they decided she was not right for them, went back to linda p's...and ultimately back to des moines where i picked up. so, since the 4th of august , she has been spayed and re-homed at least 5 times, with her last address, the vet's office in des moines. she will go to her forever home with lynn k out east at the end of september when tx judy and i head that way on our planned trip east.
sara is a sweet, sweet girl that mack and i have just fallen in love with and are glad she escaped the euthanasia that was planned for her because of her knee and the vet bill it would have created. please keep her in your thoughts. Mack
