biting

The boys turned one. I never thought they would live this long. After diarrhea, cutting teeth, umpteen pee pads, vet visits, elk bones, some critter hooves that stinks to high heaven, biting, farting, fighting and water drooling everywhere they made it. We finally found our secret to...

Does anyone have any advice on how get Matilda to stop gnawing on her toes?! Basically, her feet get itchy from allergies, but she's been on Pred and the allergies have completely cleared up. We also started Atopica for long term prevention, and waiting to see if it helps. Anyway, she keeps...

Mabel was crazy this afternoon! She was pretending she was going to attack us, play biting, and jumping around like a puppy! Then she pounced on her antler. She was having a blast!

....so I've been feeling quite lucky to have a pup with such a great temperament! On the contrary, I just wanted to check in with other experienced bulldog owners to see if this is fairly normal for the EB breed. I was expecting my new puppy to be more 'troublesome' so to speak; ie: whining...

Hi everyone! First I wanted to say thank you to everyone for all of the posts and info! I can't tell you how much you have all helped me over the last few weeks with my new little guy Max. He's my first bully and he's wonderful. Max is now 13 weeks old and has learned very quickly. He live...

Hi, everyone. New to the forum, but have been reading since we got Duchess in October. We have had some medical complications and this board has been a wealth of info...so thanks! Anyway, Duchess has somehow forgotten the concept of sleep. She is generally very active, but the last week she...

Has anyone ever tried Thundershirts? Thundershirt | The Best Dog Anxiety Treatment Boris is constantly biting at feet and running hot laps around the apartment and a friend had recommended me to checkout Thundershirts as it fixed the problem with her golden doodle. I have tried increasing his...

My dad sent me 2 César Milan videos, both for food and toy aggressive dogs. One of the dogs was 12 year old and the owners ad been dealing with the behavior the entire time! César came in and just slowly stood over the food bowl, acting as an alpha claiming the food. We tried it and bam, it...

Okay, let me be more specific. Chubbs goes in circles, FOREVER, licking and (I think) trying to bite his ding-a-ling. I tried looking at it and it looks a little red. Is that normal or is he biting it? He's also trying to lick his rear (super funny how frustrated he gets because he can't reach.)...

After a lot of thought I took the plunge to let my 6 month old boy Bentley off the lead at the park last week for the first time. It all started fine with Bentley walking by my side which I praised him for.We came across two people talking with their three dogs,Bentley went over to investigate...

So, a couple of things about Bella: She walks now! It looks like my pup will be a walking partner. When I first got Bella, she would only walk far enough to pee/poop. I'd have to carry her away from home so that she would walk back home. Crazy! Then, I got her to walk more and walk...

My wife and I adopted an English Bulldog about 6 years ago from a family who didn't have time to take care of her. She is a great dog, but has had numerous health and behavioral issues. She has had 6 surgeries, has allergies, anxiety, seizures (head tremors), recurrent UTIs, and is just an...

I want to make sure I'm doing what's best for Bella. I did a quick forum search and now I'm concerned that Bella's growling needs to be stopped. Please help! She talks back a lot. For example, let's say I make her get her front paws off the couch (by giving the "down" command and tugging on her...

She just inhales it. Really. Just now, she had a very holy terror puppy moment where she was jumping, biting everything, barking, running around in circles, biting some more, etc...then she started heaving and her breakfast came up. It was all completely whole (and obviously wet). Concerning?

OMG, Bella just had a holy terror moment. She just wouldn't listen! She was trying to pull down the curtains from the window and then she was biting my clothes after I repeatedly told her "No bite! No bite!" She was ignoring me. She's rarely that bad...out. of. control. This phase passes...

So I don't even know how to explain what is going on...but Joe just hasn't been himself for the past week or so. I went away to Costa Rica for two weeks before Thanksgiving, my Dad came from NC and stayed with him him at my house. When I got back Joe seemed to have a little redness in his ears...

Hi all, your thoughts appreciated please. Our bulldog is 11 months (had him one month). Ticking along nicely until he has just started the habit of biting for attention (constant attention). Thought could get on top of this by playing with fav toy intermittently and then we could relax with...

now i'm not sure but people i have talked to say bulldogs are lazy and don't like running around . my 1 1/2 year old maggie is starting to drive me and my family nuts. don't get me wrong we love her but do they calm down? you mention the work walk and she goes nuts jumping all over...

So, I promised to keep my 14 month old grandson George for 4 days which happened last weekend. I was really dreading it for a long time because of Winnie being such a biter. She has pretty much quit biting at 5 months. I was so proud of her that she didn't bite George one time!! She gave him...
