My bully barks at amputees

[Bmakj]

2 yr old Olde English female (spayed) bulldog. Today, for second time, she barked at an arm amputee walking by, generally does not bark at humans or even dogs when we are out. I feel horrible about it. Any ideas to stop this?

Interesting.. I have no experience and would only think that she is seeing something different or the person is giving off a different vibe

Very strange behavior...never seen it before. Coincidence, perhaps?

pretty certain no coincidence, pretty strong reaction both times, and pretty much the only strong reaction she has had to any person or dog in public (ie discounting barking at strangers coming to house, or pedestrians walking by on sidewalk if she is in yard with us, which is just alerting people they are on her turf).

I’ve seen the movie “The Fugitive” so … she may be onto something
