Has your bulldog had any formal training?

 

[Pati Robins]

No , i dont see a point in it if i can do it myself -i can spend money i would spend on classes on my dogs ;-)

Edit : i always had dogs since i can remember -they are not super well behaved but they listen so that is fine by me ;-)

Yep. He's our first dog and we didn't know how to train him.

Went to puppy "school" when he was about 3 months old. Didn't work out so well (instructor didn't seem to like bulldogs, and would always point out Blue as an example of a dog who doesn't listen).
My hubs (who I swear has the patience of a saint), got very angry so we stopped going.

Yes. Harlea went to puppy class but that was to reinforce what we had already taught her. However, she will be going to the intermediate class once my wife is better and can move around.

..... why do you think I know so much about training we are referring to BANKS here..... she has even been to a week long boot camp!!

 

[cali baker]

Yep, both went to puppy and intermediate classes plus did private lessons with a trainer. Not that you can really tell...

 

[NigelsMom]

Nigel and I did puppy training at our vet and he did great then I just used him to train Karly and she learned pretty quickly too. They know only basic commands but they do listen very well.

I don't know how formal it can be said to be, but in took Brie yo a training class weekly girl about a month. I had already taught the things they just reinforced if..we also had a behaviorist cone over Once for 2 hours.

Oh gosh yes! If it were not for his trainer Sue, I probably would not have Dudley today. She was our savior!!! And he loved her! Still does. She also is a vet tech at our vets. If her hears her voice when we go in to the vet's office, he goes crazy until she comes and talks to him. When we were in training, all I had to say was, "want to go see Sue," and he would run to the door and stand there...ready to go!

 

[Annie1991]

Yep - I get formal training EVERY DAY !!!!!!!

 

[Valentine215]

THe Diva had training at 6 months and got the Good Canine training and award as well.

 

[Ftse 100]

Ftse went to puppy pre school and we had a trainer come to our house in September but honestly did not think too much of her methods some seemed a bit over the top

 

[Enjnene]

My first bulldog Attitudee went to several training courses and was ready to go for her canine good citizen when I lost her ... Madison had been a a couple training courses ... Diesel & Molly have not been to any courses but I am working on becoming a trainer and they are my practice babies so everything I learn I teach them so not sure if that counts as going to a training course
