Hello everyone! I know there have been many posts on many different forums about English Bulldog puppies not walking and such, but I wanted to get some advice on my situation which may/may not be a bit unique. Our English Bully, Brutus, is 11 weeks old, and really is a good boy (house training going well, no issues with crate training). However, when it comes time for us to put the leash on him (we use a harness, not collar) and try to walk him outside our apartment and away from the apartment building, he will have none of it. Instead, he either locks up low to the ground, or just stands there and stares before trying to go back inside... Where it gets a bit odd (at least to us!) is that if we can take him about one block away from the building, he will start being much more mobile on the leash and walking around...
We can't seem to figure out why he is so opposed to walking outside the apartment, the elevator and then away from this implied building perimeter. We are currently using treats as a way to get him to come away from the building on his leash and we are having mixed success since we started a few days ago! Would love to get some advice from the forum!! Thank you!!
