I was updating the forum's then and now picture since the one I had on there was very old, and I cannot believe how much Aldito and Katara have changed! they are looking so "bulldog" now and I definitely notice it more when looking at their puppy pictures. Aldo is getting very wide chested and athletic, Katara is getting a little pudgy.. what do you think? she has the patellar issue so I am afraid to let her get overweight because she won't be able to "exercise it off" She weighs 41 lbs Do you think Aldo looks ok or do I need to feed him more? he weighs about 46 lbs. I know I am a little biased but i think they are both beautiful! And yes, they are wearing e-collars, for their own safety since they occasionally fight, though it has been much better lately and mainly the safety of my kids since Aldo has (lately very rare) lunging episodes.. he thinks the kids are puppies that he can play rough with..

They're so beautiful and special both. I don't think Katara lock pudgy at all, but can't see the waist in those pictures and Aldo has time to get mass later, it's better to be on the thin side.
My Usko is, what I thought, really on the thin side and when we were on a show he got complimented by the judge on his good condition.

OMG they are adorable. And my favorite boy in the universe (besides my Bo, of course), Mr. Aldo, looks as FABULOUS as ever. I just love that little face of his. He is a special, special boy.

So...how's it going with the e-collars? When do you push the button?

Most folks think those collars "shock" dogs --- they do not. They vibrate...like a pager might. It's only meant to redirect whatever negative behavior is happening. Cesar Millan (yes, he is my hero) has used them on two shows that I know of --- probably more --- to work with food aggression issues (American Bulldog) and obsessive tire biting (working Cattle Dog).

Katara is gorgeous too, of course. :D

Oh my goodness....the most adorable little puppy pair are such beautiful bulldogs now. It is so crazy to see them compared "then" and "now" because bullies change so much! :heart: Aldo and Katara! They look absolutely perfect! And such a cute Fourth of July picture!

What a beautiful pair...... they both look very healthy as for their weight as long as they have a visible waist without seeing ribs they are at a good weight
