Hi there everyone.

Wow, took me 11 months to make a profile here. All the while, all the members and participants in this forum have been so helpful with information regarding bulldogs.

I'm a Canadian living in South Korea (been here 7 years) and bought an English Bulldog last Sept. He's Going to be 10 months on May 1st. His name is Bangu (pronounced Bawng-goo, A as in 'Awe' sound). Just to let you know, 'Bangu' means fart in Korean ^^. I attached some pics. Hope they show up. The First one is nine weeks, and the other too much more recently. He's my buddy and I have put a lot of energy into him. He's quite well trained for 10 months. He waits in another room while we eat (Koreans eat on the floor, my wife is korean). He waits at the front door after we come in from our walks so i can wipe his feet. He walks beside me on a leash. Sometimes he stalls a bit, but we're getting there. I also taught him to pee in the shower (his pad is there) that way, if he misses it's not a big mess. As Korean bathrooms are one big shower, there is no bathtub. And he Doo-doos outside.

I have so much too ask and discuss. Getting all the things a bulldog needs in Korea can be hard. I just switched him to EVO off royal canin. What a difference. He is still only halfway through the transition but I already see benefits. You may see some acne in one of his photos but it has rerally cleared up! People just don't have a lot of pets here and don't seem to be as keen as westerners when it comes to holistic, natural and organic products. I have so much info to share but I'll leave it there for now. Don't want to bore anyone.

Once again, thatnks to all on the forums here. You have been so helpful.

Any questions are welcome about cultural differences/ pets herre/ products etc.

Moving back to Canada in 18 months ^^

P.S. bangu is being neutered this weekend. Got some guilt about it being a guy and all. I think 10 months was good? Opinions?

Thanks,

Brian

Wow! Awesome intro -- and Bangu is gorgeous! I love his name too. Whatta face!!!

I'm curious about the challenge of returning to Canada with a dog. Does he have to sit in quarantine?

10 months is a fine a time as any to neuter. Don't worry. He won't miss that unsightly, dangly equipment and he'll be a better, happier, healthier dog for it. :yes:

:hiya: Brian and Bangu! Great Intro and it's wonderful you've found us! He is very handsome and great job with him! My Jake was neutered at about the same age..I'm sure Bangu will do fine. If you can, request Isloflourane gas for the anesthesia..it's the safest for him! Good luck on the big move! :)

Hi there and welcome! Oh my cuteness! I love love love the last picture! So handsome!!!!! I had no choice but to get Brutus neutered at 8 months as I has wanted to wait until 18 months! I don't think it made a difference but he does have a smaller head than most his age!

Your boy is so handsome. I love the middle picture where it looks like he's trying to hide...saying: You don't see me!
