biting

Boris tends to either not bite or bite as hard as he can. I've raised several labs and they've always caught on really quick to the whole mouthing concept... Anyone have experience getting an EBD to not bite full force all the time, mainly when he/she is in the "witching hour" mood? It's...

Hi guys, haven't been on here for a while, I've been sooo busy! Anyways I need some opponions on my little situation with Wilson. Ever since we had him (8 weeks old) he has had accidents on his bed, which is completely understandable when toilet training. He's 6 nearly 7 months now and tells me...

I got Frank on July 16th he turns 12 weeks tomorrow and he is a little bundle of joy. I love him so much he is great with obedience and crate training potty training is coming along but the toughest thing is to get him to stop biting hands and feet. He always wants to play after nap time and is...

Hi, okay so a week or two ago I switched my 12 week old puppy from Royal Canin to Merrick grain free puppy recipe. However. For the past few days he has had bad diarrhea. He poops often and when he does, it is a decent amount and it's becoming mucousy (sorry no). After the initial "load" he...

So we are bringing home our first bulldog puppy next week and I am slightly freaking out reading posts about the "shark phase". We have a 3 and 6 year old and I'm worried about the puppy biting them. Any advice or anything you've found helpful to keep the puppies from chewing up my kids?!

Hi, I've recently signed up and I am looking for a bit of advice and help. I recently collected my puppy Toby at 8 weeks, we've had him for a week and he is a lovely dog but there are some parts of his temperament I want to sort out now whilst he is young. I understand that he is only a puppy...

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...

Hi all, I have wanted a bulldog for a long time and finally realised that dream 2 weeks ago when I bought Franky from a small time breeder in Australia. He's an amazing dog and apart from going a bit puppy crazy once or twice a day when playing, he is very well behaved. I run the house like a...

Hello everyone. My name is Miguel and my wife and I welcomed our new English Bulldog into our home on June 5th 2015. His name is Tonka and thus far things have been going well. So far I have combed thru some threads regarding his biting, he just turned 9 weeks old and has started wanting to bite...

Bulldog Interdigital Cysts Posted on December 6, 2012 by Baggy Bulldogs Interdigital Cysts, (growths between the toes). Nobody really knows what causes them, some people think it is a fungus and some think it is an ingrown hair or that it may form as a result of the penetration of the skin by a...

Hi friends :) I had a question regarding my fathead. You'd think we'd be thankful his biting and chomping have stopped, and that he seems to have replaced it with licking, but it does bring up some questions for me. I mean he licks EVERYTHING. I can't really tell if it's just who he is or if...

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...

My husband and I got our little Effie around 9 weeks old. She's 15 weeks today :) I've found tons of helpful useful information on here, so thought it was time to create an account! We live in Virginia Beach with Effie and our 2 kitty cats, Sherbert and Penny. Effie is our first dog, and we've...

So Elliot my soon to be 9 week old puppy started off so laid back and loving at 6 weeks but as time has gone on we cant even touch him without him biting down so hard that it has drawn tears from me and blood from my husband. I understand puppies play and are teething, we say no, yelp, ignore...

We just got or 1.5 yearold bulldog in February. He's generally a sweet boy, but now we are seeing aggression issues.. He starts with attacking feet then goes from there, with lunging, biting, he normally will keep it up for 10 minutes.. We try and pin him on the ground to be dominate, but...

Hi, I need some advice. Im trying to teach my 8yr old kid to play with Max, but Max all he wants is to bite him, he tried to do it with myself but I was able to control him. My kid is a little be afraid now, he can not make him stop, he will only stop if I'm there, but he will not listen to my...

Hello all. I know there are a couple of other agression threads started here but i thought i needed to start a new one. I have a 18 EB who until about a month and a half ago has been nothing but an awesome experience. Our only issues we ever had to worry about was puppy biting, jumping on people...

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...

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...
