12/24/25 INTRODUCTION: Please welcome Journey Sage to our rescue family! She writes: Bulldog friends, it’s Christmas Eve, and tonight marks the start of a gentler, hopeful new beginning for me.
I left the farm with my mama because, even though I’ve got a little extra fluff, I ran faster than she did. I hopped into the rescue wagon before she could, marched myself straight to the passenger seat, and there I stayed.
While waiting, I saw an ad for Spanx and thought, Now that’s exactly what I need. Sadly, I must report that Spanx could not contain this gal. Not only were they a challenge to get on, but they didn’t hold a thing in. Very disappointing.
My birthday is April 26, 2022. I recently had a visitor named Ms. Laura, who came to see if she could lift me once I’m ready for foster care. I weigh a solid 90 pounds. I told her I was hoping to lose a little weight someday, but for now I’m big and wide. She just laughed. She wanted me to sit in her lap, but I chose to stare at her instead. I felt a bath was needed before we reached that level of friendship.
It’s important everyone knows I wasn’t an indoor Bulldog. I was a kennel Bulldog, so house rules are brand new to me. Please be patient. I’m still learning, and accidents might happen. My mama is Koko Lovebug. She’s much more confident than I am, but I’m working hard and learning how to walk on a leash today.
The struggle is real… but so is the journey.

4/29/26 UPDATE ~ HR says she’s “not on payroll,” but foster girl Journey Sage strongly disagrees. Her current work-from-home duties include foot warming, morale boosting and crumb patrol. Meet this overachiever at our Bulldog Bonanza at The London Baker on May 17 in Lewisville. See you there!
6/6/26 UPDATE ~ From the foster momma: Journey Sage met some of her fans recently! They recognized her before she even walked through the door and were still laughing about that video of her trying (and failing) not to fall off a chair.
