He is such a little cutie, looks too sweet. Give him a big bully hug from us. Plus if no one has told you, no raw hide chews, bully sticks, or greenies, for your bully. Just nylabones, kongs, or any good quality hard rubber toy and antlers. Enjoy your new cutie.

EXCELLENT advice! Tried to give you REP, but it burpped at me and said I had to speard it around!!

Reading up on everything so we can make sure. I love the bullet points, it really helps. What are greenies?

Are these snacks ok until I can research and order the best ones? Buddy Biscuits and Tricky Trainers from Cloud Star, Made in the USA.

[MENTION=3909]bigfwt04[/MENTION] greenies are a chew treat that can cause a choking hazard. I have never used Buddy Biscuits or trainer treats, but as long as they have good ingredients in them, they should be fine. You just want to stay away from rawhides, pig ears, anything made with the hide of an animal. It can swell and cause choking or tear off and cause damage in the intestines. What food are you feeding him. Sometimes a good quality food will offer treats also.

Oh my goodness what a cutie. He's a good-looking roly-poly. I doubt he'll fit in that bed too long. :lol: Take lots of pictures yo'll be surprised how small he was once he gets bigger. Have fun and be patient, puppies are just like babies. :up:

Yep , they "are" babies. They depend on you for everything. When you raise them right, they repay you with love ten-fold.

I wouldn't use anything for puppy bedding - in the crate - that couldn't be washed. Especially when he's so new to you. That fluffy bed is fun but can you throw it in the washer? That's my criteria for anything bulldog around here.

He's adorable. Flat adorable. Whatta face. Chunk is a doll boy.

Hello! I am a new proud owner of a bully puppy! But I am very anxious about leaving him home alone for the first time. My kids are home over Christmas break and are able to take him on bathroom breaks, play, etc... but will have to go back to school at the beginning of next week and I'll be at work. Any suggestions? I don't want to lose all the potty training we've gotten accomplished this far.
