Meet the Founder: A Bulldog Mama on a Mission
Hi, I’m Lory Mitchell, the heart behind The Holistic Bulldog and a lifelong bulldog lover. My journey started with Chewbacca—”Chewy” for short—who faced every health challenge the breed is known for. Despite staying away from chicken and feeding a “high quality” fish kibble, Chewy developed severe yeast infections, ear infections, interdigital cysts, and tail pocket issues within months.

After endless vet visits, medications, and mounting bills, I was told his only option was a lifelong prescription of Apoquel… at just one year old.
But I couldn’t accept that. I knew there had to be a better way—so I dove into research, discovered raw feeding, and saw life-changing results. Chewy’s infections cleared up, and recurring vet visits became a thing of the past. That was 5 years ago and since then I began breeding English bulldogs, raising all of them on raw feeding and natural remedies from day one.
This transformation fueled my passion for bulldog wellness and to change the stereotype that all bulldogs are unhealthy. I became a certified canine nutritionist and animal aromatherapist to deepen my expertise and help other bulldog parents facing the same struggles. Five years later, I’ve helped dozens of bulldogs live healthier, more holistic lives—saving their owners hundreds (if not thousands) of dollars in vet bills, time and stress.
