Sir eric Draven of Liverpool is a very special american bulldog. He seems to know when my mom is going to get a attack of asthma. He lays by her bedside while she is sick. He seems to know when your not feeling well. Draven is the most loyal bulldog i have. He seems like he is human. He likes to help me bake cookies, he barks and goes and stands by the fridge when he's hungry. He's calm and sweet by nature and never had to be created.
