barking

Okay!! I posted about Spanky's behavior when he was like 13 weeks old or something like that (biting, lunging, barking, growling)...and after all of your responses, I felt more confident...and then shortly after Spanky was an ANGEL. He has been so very good from weeks 14/15 up until last...

My 1 year old male is TERRIBLE with other dogs, when he was a pup he used to play just fine with our two cats and other dogs around him, it seems like lately whenever he knows any other dog is around he goes absolutely crazy. It started off with him just barking at them like crazy but would...

hello everyone Iam new to this site I have questions and hopefully you guys can help me. I have a 3 year old bulldog who is extremely spoiled but within the last month he has started barking and growling at night. he barks at me until I get out of bed and he gets really excited but when I go...

Taco has the life. I take him out early in the morning, my wife comes home to take him out at lunch, I'm normally home by 5:30pm to let him out, and then we do several quick walks in the evening. We play with him when we come home, and I try to exhaust him on the weekends and evenings. Today I...

Went to the Zoo just so Bifi could see some other animals other than neighborhood dogs and cats. Unfortunately he can't see most of them because most of the wall barriers are too high for him to look up to. He was scared of the elephants and barked at one. Very Scared of the mountain lion...

I got a call from my neighbor today saying that Boris had been barking non stop for about an hour and half. I decided that I would run home quick and check on him since I could not see him on my IP camera. I got home to find Boris in the kitchen barking at the noodle strainer that must of fallen...

Hi, I desperately need some experienced advise on my puppy's behaviour! We have a 17 week old bully male called Wilson. He is our first bulldog (we previously had boxers) and his attitude stinks! The first problem we have is biting. I have read it is extremely common for bulldog puppies to be...

I just took these two photos and i can't even stand how cute they are! Ruthie was growling and barking at me all because Brutus was in her spot. I finally just picked her up and put her beside him and captured this. Of course, she kicked brutus out of the spot and she's all happy and quiet now...

So a week ago Achilles was barking around 4am right before I get up for work. He kept crying and barking and of course I got up to check on him. Well he was letting me know that he wanted to do his business, as soon as I let him out to our backyard he did his thing (just poo). I WAS SOOOOO...

We rescued our EB in October. We don't know much about his background other than he was neglected and we believe, abused. He was found as a stray by animal control and then by a rescue group. He came with a lot of medical issues which we have been treating at our local vet-med university...

We decided to get the boys neutered last December. For over a year, I was opposed to the idea, then finally gave in when we got Wellie due to social reasons. Castrated dogs just didn't like them, and it became difficult to go out without constant barking and lunging by neighborhood dogs...

Belle has been acting crazy all afternoon. She has been restless and kept running by the entrance to the dining room. Every time she ran by she would growl and stare. A few minutes ago she sat and started barking. I was seriously thinking she was seeing a ghost or something. Finally, I realized...

As some of you know, our family, including my bully Truman, recently underwent several major moves. It was a stressful time for everyone, including Truman, who has struggled on and off with sleeping well at night. After moving into our third place, Truman's night time barking, pacing, and...

We got our puppy max about a week ago He's great. He knows sit, and paw, and is also getting a bit better on a leash. My only issue with him is that he knows how to get things he wants... He barks to let me know he's hungry or thirsty or when he wants to play or on the couch. This wouldn't...

Ace has always been great with any food. He will even eat lettuce! Ace escaped from home recently. I got him back (Prayers answered) about 6 days later. Of course, he was given some other food. He came back doing well. He ate fine for a couple of days. One day my wife decided to give him some...

I need some help/advise please!! My fiance and I just got an almost 2 year old (in May) EB from a lady that didnt have time for him anymore. We went over to her house on Saturday morning and met him, his name is Chaos. He was VERY friendly towards us but they also had a smaller dog that nipped...

I'm sorry, I might have asked this before, but I'm still just not sure what's right/wrong. Bella has these fits, which I think are part of her zoomies. She's uncontrollable, she jumps up on the couch (front paws only--she's still small) and I make her get down...but she gets back up again...

....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...

Bella doesn't bark a lot, really. She doesn't bark at the doorbell or knocks, thankfully. She usually barks when she's annoyed, like when she wants to get out of her playpen or on the couch or something like that. In these situations, I walk away and she stops pretty quickly. But, today I had...

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...

ABOUT MAUDE Hi Friends! My name is Maude. I am a 7 year old girl that recently found myself in foster care. I had been part of a family my whole life and they loved me, but my family was no longer able to take care of me so they did the next best thing by finding IEBR. I am a laid back...

I took Ruthie and Brutus to the groomer Saturday. They needed a good washing and their nails cut. There were a ton of dogs there just running around the place and of course Brutus jumped right into the fun! They took them both back and brutus kept taunting a golden retriever that was in cage...

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...

She's training me so well. :yes: Let me first say that, previously, I owned a Lhasa Apso, who took a solid 2 years to become house trained. I take full responsibility for this poor training, but it was a very hard first 2 years of dog ownership. Anyway, I decided to be much more diligent with...

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?

I just adopted a 4-year old, Deaf, female English bulldog. She is absolutely wonderful - she is already house trained, she understands quiet a few sign language signals, she adapted easily to sleeping on her own bed (rather than our bed) - our only issue is she is very aggressive with other...

Hi everyone. when I picked up Buddy my male bulldog at the airport almost 3 years ago I couldn't believe how bold and fearless this little guy was ! He walked around my place like he owned the place and had lived here for years. Very cute. now I swear he is a scary cat. Anything that he is...

Help!! in the last month or so Radar has become really protective. He goes to my in laws house during the day while we are at work and recently radar has started barking and trying to attach strangers who come over. THEN on Friday my husband picked up my son (doesn't happen a lot as he is...

My 2 yr old bully Angie has been with us for a long time. We recently got her AI'd so if it took, she will be 3.5wks pregnant. A friend knew someone rehoming a bulldog and we offered to take her. Angie is usually great with other dogs. The neighbor dog comes over all the time to play and we take...

For the past week or so, every night when it's time to go to bed, Bocephus starts throwing a fit - like a toddler. He will bark incessantly, crawl under my bed, lay on top of my body, jump on the bed...... I initially thought it was because he hadn't finished all his business outside so I keep...

When Bella is unhappy or when she wants attention, she will bark her displeasure at me. For example, if I'm on the couch and she's on the floor, she'll put her front two paws on the couch, stand on her hind legs, and bark at me. I've been ignoring her and then giving her attention only when...

Sadly too many dogs get treated like this, and not like a family member and with the unconditional love they deserve and give to us. We see these forgotten pets in shelters, tied up in backyards, abandoned, neglected and abused. All dogs should be owned by EBN members, they deserve to be loved...

Hello, I got my english bulldog Angus about 3 weeks ago. We took him to the groomer today for a bath, and when we dropped him off everything was normal. When we picked him up however he was acting very different. Every time he saw another dog, he would drop into a submissive pose and start...
