Help with training

[Divinepups]

[hi I recently took on a 2 year old male English bulldog along with my 1year old female and they both do not respect me and I need help with getting them to listen. My male follows me around everywhere I can't even shower alone. They both have learned to open our doors busy out of the cage. I am going nuts ....Any advice?

That is the breed , they want to be with you ALL the time , you are there world .
Bulldogs are very stubborn sometimes do not take NO at all
May I suggest a good dog trainer that you all go to and learn the basics and read more here there are many many articles and posts here on training and the breed you have .

Hi there and welcome. Yes, bulldogs are stubborn and they will always want to be with their human. That is just part of the breed. Definitely look into obedience training but also look up "Nothing in Life is Free" which is a great place to start.

Welcome..... you need to use basic training with them BUT what you are describing is typical bulldog behavior as it is who they are... they want to be t=with their humans ALL the time. they are more in to humans than other dogs and ae often referred to as 'Velcro dogs' and shadows.

Nothing in life is free, as mentioned, is a great an easy traning technique
