Bulldog

One of my favorite clients is an English Bulldog! She has such a big heart and craves attention from every person we would run into in the street. Even though she is incredibly loving and adorable, she is very lazy and does not like to leave the comfort of her own home - as a matter of fact, she will pull back until her home is out of sight. ONLY THEN will she continue to walk! I would usually have to coax her with treats throughout the walk just to get her through it. She would look forward to seeing the door of her home signifying that our walk had ended. Despite her lack of eagerness to walk, she is the sweetest and most loveable dog I have ever met (and gives the best, wet and slobbery kisses in the world!)

I walked a bulldog during the peak summer hours, so he overheated very easily. He would go from shady tree to shady tree, but if I tried to lead him to the sunny side of the street, he would dig in and refuse to move. He would be motivated by chasing, fetching, and chewing on sticks- the bigger, the better! Our walks were usually a short 10 - 15 minute walk in the neighborhood followed by lots of playing in the shaded backyard. He would need a lot of water after the walk to cool down. A very sweet boy!

Don’t be an English bully now! The dopey English bulldog is willful, docile, friendly, adorable, well meaning, disarming, strangely charming, affectionate, and loved by numerous presidents. They are also the inspiration for many mascots and unlike the bull baiting that, they were bred for, they are truly gentle creatures. When you meet an English bulldog, they will more than likely slobber all over you. They mean no harm; this comes with the territory with an animal with a brachiocephalic face. The happier they are, the more they tend to slobber and since they are such lovers of attention and affection, they tend to drool through most of their life. While they possess a great gentleness, it doesn’t mean that they lack will power or independence. In fact, English bullies tend to be some of the most independent breeds. Bulldogs are self-sufficient and determined, making them a lot more independent than others dogs. This confidence allows them to solve problems without looking at their owners for guidance, the way other breeds might. Bullies love to eat and often have an oral fixation much beyond their puppyhood. They tend to really love to chew on objects that have texture. I walk an English bulldog that loves to chew on sweet gum tree seedpods and insists on chewing them daily. Sadly he doesn’t understand that this isn’t good for him and continues to be his dopey stubborn self. English bulldogs are goofy as well, most of them possess a lop sided grin that’s often accompanied with an under bite and one fang protruding out. English bulldogs often pant out of excitement and love affection from people. They adore getting belly rubs and often fall sideways when being pet on the butt. While English bulldogs aren’t the healthiest of breeds, they don’t lack any character and make up for it in numerous other ways. They do have special needs and at times need a special diet in order to keep them healthier. Because of the size of their heads and fronts, Bulldogs have difficulty giving birth. Most require caesareans to deliver their puppies. English Bulldogs are quite popular in England, they are considered to be the national breed and it has been known that Winston Churchhill was known as the “British Bulldog”. English bullies are not a healthy breed, but what they lack in their health, they make up for with their jovial character.

I really enjoyed it, when I walked in the house he was just starring at me and wagging his whole butt! He was such a beautiful bull dog! He was also so well-behaved. He never really pulled much but wanted to lead the walk a bit. Very friendly with other people, but didn't care for other dogs as much. He wasn't the fastest walker but he kept up! He also caught a glimpse of a squirrel and was so interested! He followed the squirrel around the tree. As we progressed through the walk he was breathing a little hard which worried me, but I know it's normal for the breed.

When I come in the door, Dexter is always napping. He gets up to greet me with his saggy smile. Despite his love for naps, he is always excited to walk. He still has a little spunk in his step after a decade. During our walks, he snorts a lot, breaths pretty heavily and is very excitable. Towards the end of our walks, I can tell he is ready to get back to his naps. Although he can be a little stubborn and protective of me while walking, especially around other dogs, he is overall a very happy dog. For his age, he is still very lively and ready for action. From what the owner said, he has lost a lot of weight in the past year. He has increased his endurance from a short 10-minute walk to long 30-minute or more walks. His weight has dropped and he is much healthier than he used to be—giving him back the spunk I see in him today.

The bulldog I have walked twice now is very affectionate, but not trained at all. She has a lot of energy and love, so putting her collar on is a struggle with how much she runs around, and her harness is impossible. Her hard head and lunging habits mean I have been socked in the jaw and teeth before. She also pulls on the leash and tries to greet people a little too enthusiastically. The only part of this story I would take as the "norm" for the breed is the enormous heart in her, and I think her behavior would be lot better if she had adequate space, attention, and training.

My walk with the Bull Dog Winston (whose name is as dignified as he), was a true learning experience. This was my first walk and was fortunate to have a pup parent that left me good insight on her Bull Dog. I was warned that he would not walk like other dogs, and getting him to try would take coercion. His only real interest was to get to his off-leash area and find a toy. As I was determined to go the long way and get some distance in on his leash, this meant pulling the old hold out the carrot trick. This worked semi well. If it was a toy he was highly interested in then it was game. As long as he didn’t snatch from my hands or sit down until I threw it. Even at eight months old, this pup was strong and trying to get him to go a way he was not interested in…... well it just didn’t happen. Once we got to the off-leash area he was a playful champ. He would chase me around if I held his toy, and I started to work with him coming at a verbal request. This was not something we mastered at the time, but I have several more recurring walks with the kid. A variation of a bull breed came down to play and they had a swell time. Though it was a lot of Winston chasing once the other dog stopped. The other dog did become toy aggressive at one point and Winston utterly rolled over with not so much as a growl. Pleasure of a dog and one I look forward to learning more about and working with.

My second experience working with a bulldog is detailed in the following. Bulldogs prefer to remain stationary, in a loose and relative sense. They go at their own pace and are not afraid to maintain themselves as such. They do not deserve any of the negative stereotypes so typically attached to them. All dogs are comfortable most with their owners and daily providers of leisure, food and excitement. Every good walk is cooperative and I found myself having to adjust my pacing to a tremendously slower degree in order to match what was normal for this bulldog. This is all any dog would appreciate from a new walker. For example, in an hour long period, we did not progress far within the neighborhood, and for the most part we outlined each block in keeping with the bulldog's level of familiarity, which is what one could expect from any dog. My limited but certain experience with bulldogs has show me that they are graceful, adorable, full of candor and trust, like all good dogs.

I have only worked with a couple bulldogs, and for the writing of this I have in mind my first experience. I think the best thing to mention at the outset is that the negative stereotype against bulldogs, that they are violent and irritable, is unfounded. If anything, they appear more lethargic than aggressive. All dogs are wonderful creatures and it is often the misfortunes or flaws of their owners that color their reputations. Not as an expression of ill will but as a matter of fact, I have found that bulldogs are generally stubborn. But what does that really mean, for we cannot simply apply such adjectives and call it a day? Each animal must be read for its disposition, likes and dislikes, inspirations and perturbations. With that in mind, bulldogs simply operate at a very specific pace. No dog likes being dragged or tugged at by the neck, but bulldogs will always assert their will over most physical stimuli. They must be allowed to take their time and even if they have grown accustomed to you, they will always preference their sense of comfort over any of a walker’s agendas. In this way, they are no different than other breeds. Bulldogs just have less of a problem articulating clearly how they would prefer to enjoy a walk in their own style. They move when they want to, or if coaxed along by food, and this does not make them stubborn so much as it lets you know they are wonderful creatures for their commitment to proper pacing and overall lifestyle.

The bulldog I took care of was very strong and had a lot of energy, but he was lazy in the walks. He was really stubborn and always tried to take his way! He was also very good and lovely, he wanted to be pet all the time and say hi to the people we passed while we were walking. He was nice with other dogs but he didn't like to play with them.

A notoriously lazy breed, the Bulldog's I have come across yet to break that stereo type. Walking a Bulldog is a slow process, with the Bulldog's not traveling very far from the starting point. They usually do their business, walk around a bit and then are ready to get back to their nap or hang out. It is also very important to not overwork the Bulldog and be mindful of the outside temperature, as they overheat very easily. Many also have breathing issues due to their short muzzle. A leisurely stroll is all a Bulldog needs, no need to look to cover a ton of ground. One Bulldog I have walked was a vacuum and was dead-set on finding tasty morsels on the sidewalk. I'd keep an eye out for chicken bones and other possibly dangerous items the dog could ingest.

My experience with Miss Ginny was a memorable one for sure! The owner warned me she may not necessarily want to walk much and boy was she right! I had to drag her by her little harness to get her out the door and once she was outside, of course it was raining, she refused to walk! I picked her up and carried her to the end of the block, and she raced back to the apartment door! She was super lovable and friendly, wanted to say hi to everyone that walked past, just didn't want to walk anywhere! What a potato! She didn't want to walk out on the sidewalk, but when I released her in the backyard of her townhome, she did all of her business and ran around in circles like a happy girl! Most enjoys lazy days and belly rubs!

My walk with (two) bulldogs, Lola and Billie, was quite a roller coaster. They lived an in awesome home with great owners and were very excited to meet me. In the beginning, our walk was great. We kept a good pace, they walked side by side and they both did their “droppings.” When one of them saw another dog approach us, she sprinted towards in a very aggressive manner. It was terrifying because I almost lost the leash. Luckily, the owner of the poor other dog walked to the other side of the street. After all that excitement, all the dogs wanted to do was lay down in the grass and rest. Once they were down they DID NOT want to move. I tried everything- I was about to call the owner. All in all, not the best experience, but at least when I was one-on-one with them it was somewhat enjoyable.

Bulldogs are exceptionally sweet and kind and loving. The bulldog I walked always wanted me to pet him and give him attention. Bulldogs love to be loved and I have never met a bulldog that was mean. Bulldogs do tend to get tired easily and cannot handle heat well. They enjoy to play though. Bulldogs are easy to walk since they are smaller and they seem to be able to train rather easily. They do not require any grooming except an occasional brushing and nail clipping.

My bulldog experiences always begin with a little chunky dog who shows a lot of love. They love eating snacks, probably the most. One in particular I walk often loves his treats. He also loves to play fetch. When it comes to playing fetch, he has so much energy. Much more energy than you would think for a chunkier dog. However when it comes to walking, they may not always want to do much or go far. As most bulldogs, a lot of them do have breathing problems. You can almost always here their breathing because they sound congested. Some are friendly with other dogs and others, not so much. When it comes to humans, they just love to love and snuggles and kisses all around. They are pretty good listeners, but can also be very stubborn. They are very expressive. Their mood will show right on their face from excitement to disgust. It is never a dull experience walking one of these guys.

Sneakers was hilarious. He was enthusiastic about heading outside, but once we left the house, his primary interest was standing in one place, sniffing the ground, and gazing at the world about us. He was a big, middle-aged fella and urging him along, due to his strength, was a workout unto itself. Once we got moving, the momentum seemed to carry him along, but if there was a smell, a sound, or any other possible distraction, the whole process needed to be started again. While we were passing by a park, Sneakers found a softball and this changed the course of our entire walk. He'd trot a few steps with the ball, try to lay down to gnaw on it, then, if I could get it away from him, I'd roll it along and he'd goofily chase (wobble) after it. Though he was not without challenge, he was a very fun walking companion.

The bulldog was a bit overweight and was definitely a bit sluggish to start. However, once out and about he really enjoyed playing fetch. He would run after the ball and bring it back again and again but definitely needed some breaks. They get overheated very easily, so he gulping down a lot of water in between. Very slow, sweet and easy going dog. Moves at his own pace and enjoys encouragement and attention. Also, loved getting snacks before, during and after play time! This dog was on a gluten free diet and even enjoyed green beans.

I walked a Bulldog one time. He was on the larger side and probably a bit overweight. When I rang the doorbell he started barking, but soon stopped. When I entered the home he was lounging on the couch and instantly flipped over on his back so that I could rub his belly. He LOVED belly rubs! He was a bit slow to get out the door and seemed very sluggish, but once I got him on his leash and out the door he did fine. He was a good walker. He walked at a steady pace and did not pull, although he was constantly wanting to eat trash out of the gutter, so I would have to pull him away from that. Since he was heavier, this took a bit of strength for me. He got tired out pretty easily. We only walked for about 15 minutes. When we got back to his home I took off his leash and he went straight back to the couch and laid on his back for another belly rub. He was a very sweet, and loving, but sluggish fella. He also drooled a lot.

The bulldogs I’ve worked with so love to play and have somewhat intelligence if you utilise it. They will work for treats and while they’re not as whip smart as a border collie they still can learn a thing or two and can surprise you. They don’t need over excessive walks especially in the heat.

Maybe it was all those wrinkles framing his wide set eyes or that irresistible underbite and the way he would beam at me with the biggest, toothiest grin I’d ever seen but I felt at ease with Drew and seriously fell in love with him the moment we met. Drew dutifully walked down with me to go potty, shuffling behind me the entire way with occasional snorts and grunts here and there. We walked past at least ten dogs on our way down and he showed zero aggression toward other dogs in the apartment complex, big or small, and if anything he displayed a passive indifference to all those interested in sniffing him. Cool, calm and collected, very confident as well but not showy. After our relatively short walk, Drew was definitely breathing heavily and I could tell that was probably all the exercise he needed for the day. Bulls dogs are peaceful beings. They appear to be very dependable, predictable, and loyal. It appears to me that they keep to their own business, do their business, and enjoy immediately heading home to relax. I really loved how affectionate Drew was and even though I was a stranger to him he still gave me a couple of sloppy kisses to show his goodwill and acceptance of me as his dog walker. I am a huge fan of bull dogs now after getting to know Drew!! They are such a special breed.

I walked a bulldog last week and he was the most friendly dog I've ever walked. He was so full of energy and just a bundle of joy. He may have seemed intimidating at first because of his stocky stance, but as soon as I gave him a treat, he became such a likeable dog. He really enjoyed meeting new people and dogs that were walking near us on the sidewalk. If I ever get the chance to walk this bulldog again in the future, I would drop everything and go walk him. Walking Diesel the bulldog was such an awesome and fun experience and he is the reason why I love walking dogs as a part time job. Walking this bulldog made me want to get a bulldog for myself because he was so much fun. After the walk, he sat politely down on the carpet and gave me puppy eyes because he wanted a treat! I couldn't resist his puppy eyes so I gave him a treat. This was my only experience with a bulldog but it sure was fun and awesome.

The bull dogs I’ve walked were sweet and affectionate, but pretty stubborn on leash. They pulled somewhat to lead the way, but weren’t high energy enough to pull all the time. What I’ve experienced the most is that if they aren’t done sniffing a bush or a blade of grasshopper or what have you, they DID not walk to keep walking. I’ve had some nearly come out of their collar from digging their heals in so hard and so abruptly. Since they are a bit heavy set, it can be challenging to get them to start moving again. Crouching low and calling the dog didn’t work, so instead I walked toward the dog and maintained a shorter leash, which worked much better and broke the dog’s trance with whatever they were smelling. The key with this breed is persistence. If you let up once, they won’t forget. Be persistence with commands and the way you walk them, and you’ll have a better experience.

My favorite bulldog experience was one with a pup named Tugboat. His owner & I instantly hit it off as we came from the same small Florida town and Tug also instantly seemed to like me — or my food that I brought him! Maybe as treat motivated as beagles, but way more bossy. Not to be bullied by any other dog, these pups have the dumbest looking face of any dog when they get exhausted :) their tongue sticks further out of their head than you could think was possible. At the end of the day, they’re always there for you though. Pretty good at keeping the feet warm during winter :)

This breed is so fun however very hard to walk. This breed is playful and likes to play tug of war but more of a playful pup rather than a pup that likes to walk and run. After instructions from the owner, we sat out front of the house and played in the grass with a ball. I was nervous about overheating this dog as I know this breed overheats easily. I do enjoy this breed, however due to the health issues that comes along with these breeds, I would not own myself, but I do think they make great companions for families. Fun and cute pups!

They're suborn breed. They have to be motivated to do something that you want them to do. You can motivate them with food or toys.

Bulldogs are slightly hard to walk. They are very stubborn and are mostly food oriented. While sweet and very friendly they are just hard to keep going.

I walked a middle-aged bulldog a few times through Wag. He was a very sweet guy and was perfectly content walking slowly around the neighborhood. He snorted and coughed his way through our walk. He was definitely stubborn, and I've noticed this with bulldogs in the past. If he wanted to or did not want to go a certain way, he would throw his body weight against the leash and refuse to move. I had to take his lead most of the time. He produced a lot of snot and drool, so that's something to keep in mind when getting a bulldog. They might require some cleanup! Overall, he was a very sweet guy and let me pet him while we walked.

I have many experiences walking bulldogs. I have walked English bulldogs more than 15 + times with Wag, and I have walked French bulldogs about 3 or 4 different occasions as well. I do enjoy walking this breed, even though I am not able to run or jog alongside the dog very often with this breed. If you choose to walk bulldogs, you should know that they get very tired after 5-10 minutes of continuous walking, and much of the time they are stubborn about walking and want treats to motivate them to get moving. Try not to give in with too many treats during walks because this dog breed also seems to grow quickly and have trouble with weight and weight gain. I have found that this type of dog can be trained and motivated through words and phrases, but this does take time and the owner must also be willing to work with the dog. One English bulldog I walk often is a puppy, but she is really starting to improve and show a lot of motivation on her walks as well as an increasing activeness/desire to run at times because her owner spends hours each day trying to improve her behavior. Her owner takes her to meetup bulldog parties, gets her swimming lessons, and really cares about the wellbeing of her pet. At times when this dog is very very tired from multiple walks or swimming, she becomes stubborn and does not want to walk at all. It also seems a bit difficult to housebreak this type because she seems to have accidents often in the building. To motivate, a lot of the time I just use the scent of the dog treat to get her to run and jog. After a while, I think she really enjoys it. This type of dog does not seem to destroy anything/want to chew on items in the home (can be left outside of a crate usually). Another English bulldog I walk often has similar behavior with refusing to walk after a certain point during the walk and needs motivation through a treat. This type of dog walks about a half mile on average during a 30 min walk (does not usually need an hour walk or longer since it is difficult to get them to move). This breed offers a slower paced walk, and they are usually quite friendly. Taking a rest halfway through the walk to petting them for comfort is always a good thing as well. They do in fact seem to be playful in nature as a whole.

The bulldog I met was friendly, but not excitable. He walked slow, and was kind to strangers. We avoided most dogs. Most notably, the dog was very prone to lunging towards and eating food scraps he found on the sidewalk. He kept a leisurely pace, but enjoyed walking. He also was stubborn, and had a good idea as to where he wanted to walk!

Bulldogs tend to be stubborn and aren't keen on walking far. Most have shown traits of being treat motivated, but still stubborn even then. They usually will walk a short distance before letting you know that they are ready to go back home (sitting or pulling back towards home). I haven't known one that shows aggression. You do have to keep their wrinkles/folds clean to prevent bacteria from congregating.

I cared for 2 bulldgs - 1 a mama that had just had puppies! Both very friendly to all humans, even around newborn pups! Did wonderful with young human children holding her puppies. Quite inactive, will run around outside in yard for a minute or two but usually tired out and would want to come back in to lay on couch. Always begging for food. Enjoys sunbathing.

My bulldog experience was very chill and relaxed. Her name was Bella. Her owner needed me to take her out for a potty break and play inside with her for a little bit. I walked her twice and both times we would go outside, but not before she tried giving me a hard time about getting her harness on. Once outside, she would do her business and not much else. She definitely was not interested in walking much! We had to climb stairs after outside time, and from her breathing alone I could tell the little walk and ascending the stairs took a lot of her energy. Once we got back to her home, she would love to play fetch with her toys. She had one toy in particular that I assume was her favorite because she would chase after it the most. The walk was more about playing with her and interacting with her to get her moving around rather than getting her daily exercise through walking. She seemed very happy to be inside more than outside. The only way I could get her to move around more outside was to offer her treats of encouragement! She was very sweet and kind.

This bulldog was extremely stubborn. He would not go more than a few inches without needing to be coerced with a treat. He would then randomly lunge at things. He was very heavy so it was somewhat difficult to control him. He was very sweet and people friendly, he just really did not want to walk. He slobbered a lot and loved attention and treats, but not walks.

He did not like to walk at all. It was very difficult to get him to walk more than just a few feet from the door of the home. But on the flip-side, he was super friendly and just wanted to play tug-of-war once we were back inside the apartment. Definitely not a breed for someone who likes to walk.

Meet Panda! Panda was such a little sweetie and rocking an awesome onsie! Panda had a classic bulldog personality and was very stubborn 😁. Panda decided the route we were walking and would stop and sit if I tried to go a way he did not approve of. I also don't think he was very amused by the snow and sleet coming from the skies as he often didn't want to walk! Classic bully breed!

Bulldogs are hilarious! They have such strong personalities. They sometimes even lay down in front of complete strangers and ask for belly rubs. When they are puppies, they can be a little stubborn. However, with time and training, these dogs can truly thrive and be great walking partners. They are resilient. They can sometimes be hesitant with strangers, as they are a particularly protective breed. Bull dogs are great walking partners and even love a good jog. While they vary in size, they don't often get too big to handle, even for a smaller person. Once you've won over the trust of a bulldog, they become very affectionate and sometimes protective of the people that they keep close to them. Overall, bulldogs are wonderful dogs to walk.

I have walked 2 they habe stubborn personalities are some whay independent but have a lot of health issues

She was a sweet dog, a bit nervous with new people at first but warmed up pretty well. But she was incredibly stubborn, and very disinterested in walking.

I did a one day boarding with an extremely sweet, older bulldog named Parker. He was 9 years old and was on the heavier side, he also had bad legs in general so he did not enjoy long walks at all. He was very content and happy just laying on the bed with me or sitting in a chair looking out the window. He was very friendly and liked to lay near you but didn’t necessarily want you to be all over him but he didn’t mind when I had to pick him up to get up and down from the bed since he can’t jump because of his legs. He didn’t eat a lot of food but it’s possible he was nervous about being in a new place. I adored him.

Very energetic breed, got tired pretty quickly and was breathing heavy. Due to its young age it wasn't slowing down much it kept leading the way l.

Pliny was an English bulldog I boarded for four days. He was incredibly sweet and very snuggly. He did enjoying walking only when he had to use the bathroom. After he was finished, he went straight towards the front of my building. I did not have any issues with him during the boarding. He always ate the food he was given, ate his snacks, and played with his squeaky toy. He did salivate a lot when he ate though, and when he drank water drips would follow wherever he walked. He was friendly towards other people and dogs but he was more careless too. He did not bark. He really wanted to cuddle with me on my bed but I did not allow him on so I went to the floor and hugged him instead. He did wake up pretty early because he tended to nap all day, frustrating! But overall, he was such a sweet pup.

Loves people but inconsistently affectionate. May greet you as you enter, may not. Does not like to walk for long, due to overall laziness and low energy level. Becomes overheated very quickly due to being a poor breather. Great with kids. Not needy, even-keeled temperament. Drool everywhere! Medium amount of shedding. Compliant on the leash. Generally disinterested in other dogs, although will retaliate if provoked, although bark way bigger than bite (literally, see underbite :-) Mine was not particularly playful, when thrown a ball would just let it drop, and did nothing. As a younger dog would do a bit of tug of war, but really had no interest as he got older. World class sleeper. High maintenance skin, always on an antihistamine. Prone to infections, bacterial and yeast because of folds. Skin stayed more under control on a limited ingredient, grain free diet.

He was still a puppy so he was very affectionate and cuddly. He wanted to stay inside and get love. When I took him outside he went potty and pooped but then he was ready to go back inside. I tried coaxing him and encouraging him to walk with me but he was very stubborn. As soon as we began walking towards the door to go back inside he was excited and playful. He loved meeting new people and tried to pick up everything that we crossed paths with that happened to be on the ground. When we saw another playful dog he was very excited and happy to get to see a friend.

English Bulldogs are everyone's favorite and we were stopped multiple times on every block, but the dog loved the attention and was calm and sweet with all people. Bulldogs are typically not as lively as other dogs but still enjoy getting out and sniffing around. This particular bulldog was crate-trained and loved her crate. She didn't have very much respect for my personal space, but she is so cute that I imagine most people don't mind having her lick their face. Bulldogs are loud breathers due to their nasal configuration, and this bulldog was no exception. I did not come in contact with other dogs, so I am not sure how this bulldog would be with other dogs, but I think that most bulldogs are indifferent to other dogs.

The bulldog pulls a lot and is strong but still got a good ferm grip on the leash at all times

Pearl is a tiny black bulldog with the sweetest big eyes who loves to run in her lopsided way for the entire walk. She makes up her mind when and for how long she'll walk, and she only pees or poops if she wants to, but she is house trained and easy to care for. She loves to play tug-of-war, whether it's with a chew toy or a ball.

In my experience with bulldogs of varying ages, they tend to be rather stubborn. If they don't want to walk, you won't walk. However, this stubbornness is not malicious in anyway. They just can't be bothered. You can be trying to get a bulldog to move down the street one second, and the next second they are rubbing your leg to get you to come down to their level for more pets.

Bulldogs are gentle Giants. Some have a ton of energy While others not so much. There's smushy faces make it a little difficult in warmer weather to walk for longer distances. They are very affectionate dogs who love attention and playing in the grass or with the balls. They require a lot of maintenance some may have really bad allergies while others suffer from ear issues. But they are really great family dogs and big lovers

Chief was an amazing cutie! He ran to the door with so much love. Cheif knew what I was there for. He gave me so many kisses. On our adventure he made sure I was watching him closely and would sneak a lick on my leg. I had the pleasure to walk this Ham twice. The greatest experience I had on a dog walk. He made sure I always gave him a belly Rub before I left. That cute face of Cheif’s was to die for. :-) I love you Cheif 💞🐾

I’ve always loved bulldogs. They were always my favorite growing up. Anytime I saw them, I thought this is the dog that I want. Given my fair amount of experience with them, I don’t think they’d be the right fit for me as they are hmmm...lacking the athleticism and energy I’d need as a dog owner that’s super active. Don’t get me wrong, they are still probably the most fun, happiest, and funniest dogs you’ll ever come in contact with. They are big slobbering licking balls of fur love. As walkers they’re sometimes difficult as it’s not their forte and they enjoy much more just laying around and relaxing and sunbathing. Their health also is an issue for me as they are prone to health problems given their breed .

I have walked a few bulldogs and they are the worst for aggression towards other dogs. They are very strong and will pull towards other dogs, growling. Two of the dogs I walked once escaped from their yard (I wasn’t there, the owner told me) and attacked another dog. The owner of the dog, an elderly man, was knocked down. Bulldog owners really should have their dogs professionally trained as they are very dangerous.

I have walked many bulldogs and have found a lot of them aren't super keen on walking! They love to just saunter around the block and look for snacks. There is one I have walked several times who is a character and loves to lay in the middle of the street and look around to see if any pedestrians noticed how cute he is! They are funny dogs

With a particular English Bulldog that I've walked, who was slightly overweight, I've found that bulldogs can be very lazy. They have to be very motivated to get them to do what you want. It was an effort to get this dog out of the apartment or even a block from the building, but he was very motivated by treats. Also, because of the way his face is, he would get out of breath easily.

Bulldogs are generally easy-going and lazy. They can be protective of their owners. Some bulldogs do not like walking at all and may just need to be let out to go potty, per owner's request. Bulldogs have short nasal passages which makes them susceptible for breathing issues and should not be walked in extreme heat and cold. Bulldogs often have skin allergies (grain-free diet), chronic each infections, tail pocket infections and require daily cleaning of skin folds, etc. A harness must be used instead of a collar to avoid damage to the neck/airway.

My bulldog experiences are typically the same. A sweet chunk of a dog greets you with a lot of snorts. They reluctantly head out on their walk even though they would like to stay inside where it’s warm. If it’s raining out it’s going to take some major bribing. Go slow, don’t push it. They’ll want to sniff and pee and pee and explore and pee. They love marking their area.

All the bulldogs I've walked didn't want to be outside for longer than it took them to their business. Lazy but sweet pups.

Leo is a real challenge to walk, and with that I fell in lvoe with him! He has a grumpy old man personality, so patience is a must with this Bulldog! He is a heafty guy, and has a very expressive, wrinkled face. Bulldog's have a pushed in nose, so they have loud breathing almost always. Leo has wide shoulders and a large head, and his eyes are very experssive...stubborn. This combination made me laugh when I walked Leo...I always thought, he might be Winston Churchill reincarnated - Churchill had a bulldog!

Bulldogs are such funny dogs. They are generally super calm dogs, and very hard to excite. I've walked a 5 year old bulldog a few times, and he's super sweet. He doesn't like walking at all though! He'll do his business and instantly pull to go back inside. Very food driven!

Most Bulldogs are lazy pups but are very loving. The one I walked loved playing fetch inside but didn't enjoy walking for a long period of time. She was super sweet and also loved her treats and belly rubs like almost all pups do.

Loves to walk slowly or not at all. But loves to sniff around probably in hopes of not having to walk anymore haha. Loves to like and mark their territory and sometimes pick things up in Their mouths!

The bulldogs that I have walked have had minimal energy. Some of them the owners have instructed to just let them sniff and to sit with them and give them affection. I have found it hard to ever get bulldogs to consistently walk on more than a 10 minute dog walk. They do love to sniff and get pet while sitting down on walks. They have never been aggressive.

Bulldogs are super cute, but can be frustrating to walk at times - they have been known to plop down in the middle of the sidewalk and refuse to even budge. Despite this, they are sweet, loving dogs who know what they want - to sleep.

Bulldogs are very lovable dogs, but they can be very stubborn and lazy. They may be excited to see you, but when it comes to walking, they’re not going to want to go very far. You also have to be aware of their breathing because they can overheat easily.
