Good Bulldog Vet in Chicago

Hey All, we've been pretty disappointed with the 'bulldog experts' we've visited in Chicago. Does anyone have any personal experience with a great vet in the Chicago area?

THanks,

Survey says, Dr. Shaw...hands down

Wow...wish I'd asked sooner. Dr. Shaw in Woodstock I guess is preferred by both my Mentors for just about anything Bulldog. The Fertility Specialist they prefer is in Westmont, IL , Dr. Patricia Meiser at the Animal Care & Reproductive Center. Both are about a 90 minute drive. I just made my appointments.... Thanks gang.....

yes, Dr Shaw

is the best. I have been going there for 11 years. Out in Woodstock but well worth the drive - we live in the northern suburbs and travel an hr to get there.

For minor things or annual vaccines when we give them, we stay close but for any bulldog related issues or problems we see Shaw.

Re: Fertility specialist?


I go to Dr Sheller. She specializes in bulldogs and fertility. She gave a seminar on fertility at the 2001 nationals in Indy. Great gal.

I have no idea...

but you can give them a call and ask. Dr. Shaw's number is (815) 338-0132, and Dr. Navin's number is (815) 838-0505. If not, maybe then can recommend someone to you. Good luck.

Fertility specialist?

Would either one of them happen to specialize in fertility? We are having a hard time finding a Vet in the Chicago are that specializes in fertility and comes well recommended. We are willing to travel several hours for a good Vet!

There are 2 WONDERFUL bulldog vets...

But you will have to drive out of the city. They are recommended on this board, BCA website, and Chicago English Bulldog Meet-Up Group (and rescue).

Dr. Lloyd Shaw
Woodstock Veterinary Hospital
Woodstock, IL

Dr. Paul Navin
All Pets Hospital
Lockport, IL

We go to Dr. Shaw and LOVE him. He is great and knows bulldogs. I know CEBR uses Dr. Navin and I have heard nothing but great things about him. Good luck and you will be in great hands with either one you choose.

Chicago Bulldog Vet

Have you tried Dr.Bruderle (Dr.B) at Burnham Park Animal Hospital on 11th&State? He's been really good with our bulldog Burger. He has a huge bulldog clientele.
