Bully Walks

Our August Bully Walk

 The Bull Terrier Club of Victoria had it's second Bully Walk, held on August the 8th at the Fitzroy Gardens in Melbourne, and what another great success for raising public awareness for our beloved Bullies.

With plenty of different faces and dogs, it was a great day. There was a count of Bullies who did the walk, 29 Bullies and 2 Staffys. A couple of dogs stayed back too, so it certainly was a great site for anyone in Melbourne that day. We had plenty of looks as we mingled in the gardens after the walk. Melbourne weather gods once again put on a great day for us.

Our next walk is in the pipeline, hoping for the start of November maybe the 7th or the 14th, but more details to follow. I will make sure there is PLENTY of parking at the next one too. Hoping as it will be great weather for a venue by the beach, so if anyone has any ideas please let me know, pridey77@yahoo.co.uk and of course if anyone took pics, please send them into me and I can use them on the website and the newsletter.

Thanks once again to all the people who came along, I know some people drove hours to attend our walk, so a big THANK YOU to them. These walks are giving Bully owners the chance to chat and have a laugh about what these crazy dogs get up to. And as I said before, we are hoping to raise awareness of our breed, the more people we can inform, the better.

I hope everyone had a great day, by the feedback we recieved on the day, it certainly seems like a winning idea.

Thanks to our committee members, Sandi and Chris for bringing all the gear, and a massive thanks to Jan who cooked up a storm.

Our first Bully Walk

The Bull Terrier Club of Victoria's first Bully Walk was held on Saturday June 19th at Albert Park Lake. And what a turn out we had, one count saying there were 31 Bullies there. What a great day.

This will not be the only Bully Walk the club organises. With a turn out like this, it shows people want to get out with their Bull Terriers, on a casual basis, without show ring pressures. The next walk is being organised so keep an eye out on the Clubs website and the newsletter. 

There were some tired Bullies on the return from the long walk. But lucky we had some great people who helped with our Bully BBQ. A big thanks to the people who helped set up & pack up, and a big thank you to our Master Chefs who cooked the BBQ. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE.

Thanks again to all the people who turned with their Bullies, and thanks to the people who got roped into walking other peoples dogs. More pictures have been added to our Bully Photos page. If you did take any photos on the day and want them added to our site, please email Leigh at pridey77@yahoo.co.uk Thanks.
