    What is your bully's favorite potty area?

    Fezzik tends to like to go #2 in the slightly wooded area behind my house where I haven't cleaned up the leaves or in the landscaped areas (hostas). He tends to like to go #1 on plants (hostas) or trees. I just find it weird that he likes to poop under the trees or bushes with the branches in...

    10 week old puppy pooping in crate then stepping in it and smearing!

    Help! My pup is not happy when left in crate at all. He usually poops even if he had been out right before. We had the crate blocked off so that he just had a small space but he would step in it and get it all over him and his crate sides and door (very hard to clean) so we opened up the whole...

    Bulldog Temperature Help

    It's getting warmer out and I am wondering about overheating. What is too hot? I was thinking 75 and higher, but am not sure what the threshold is. Today it is 81 and varies between sunny and partly cloudy. We have the windows open, but should we have the AC on? What about walks? Also, we plan...

    Chew ideas?

    Castor has a new hobby - he is eating twigs and chewing on branches. Perhaps nutritious but the problem is that he sometimes throws up. He's not much of a chewer indoors but perhaps he needs something to chew on. The problem is that he's on allergy food, so for the time being meat bones and all...

    Cat & Bulldog Question

    Is it wishful thinking to think that if I adopted an older cat that it would cuddle and sleep with my bully? I'm looking into alternative companions for him. I don't think we are ready for another dog, but a cat may be ok.

    Hello everyone, Sometimes when the wife and I are watching tv I noticed that our 5 month old puppy Bruce moves around a bunch. He goes in his crate, on the couch with us, here and there never staying in one spot for more than 5 minutes. It's similar to how a baby fights sleep...they're obviously...

    Hi guys, so we met with a different vet for a second opinion regarding beefs breathing and like i could've guessed he highly suggests the elongated soft palate surgery, nares widening, and (if necessary when he gets in there) removing saccules. I also would like him neutered if he needs all this...
