My english bulldog is 9 months old, and is the most stubborn dog I have ever met... he is very pleasant most of the time (aside from loving to chew EVERYTHING). However, if I take him out to do his business, he will go out, do his thing, and if he doesnt feel like coming in, he will just lay down right there on the driveway and wont budge. most of the time wont get up for treats unless you throw one in the house and walk away, then sometimes hell come in.
If you try to pick him up he begins to growl and even snap at you. He also does this when he runs into certain rooms of the house he is not allowed (gated off). He will run under a table and then growl/bite when you try to pick him up, which is not acceptable behavior.
I knew that EB's were a very stubborn breed, but is this normal? How do you deal with this behavior?
He knows commands, sit, stay, come, laydown, etc. He obeys them when he feels like it.
Can be very frustrating, any help is appreciated.
