Abby likes to head butt doors and other things that are in her way. Is this a normal bulldog trait ? Or is she just nuts ??

That's how Fezzik opens doors. If you are in a room he will try it a couple of times to make sure it is closed and will bark to let you know you accidentally forgot him.

Bentley uses his nose to move things out of his way especially when he is playing ball inside the house so I would say it is normal on a case by case basis for bullies. So I would say yes it is normal for Abigal. Maybe she was a goat in another life. :)

Ya Abby likes to head butt doors, gates and people .... does not like being locked out of an area or if you aren't paying attention to her she will head butt you to get your attention ...
