    potty training dilemma

    Hi all. I have a 15 month old Victorian Bulldog named Magnus. He is completely house broken but the frustrating thing is he refuses to poop in our back yard. We moved about 3 months ago, and up to that point he would poop in the yard at the old house (it was not fenced). The new house has a...

    HELP! Juvenile Behavior!

    Our 4.5 month Victorian Bulldogge started going through his juvenile behavior stage about 2 weeks ago. We started him in training at 11 weeks and he did unbelievably well for the first 6 classes. Suddenly he is so defiant for me and for the trainer. She used to be able to get him to do his...

    Help! My puppy won't poop!

    We have a 14 wk old Victorian Bulldog who has a phobia about pooping. He doesn't mess in the house, but he won't go outside either. He last went about 1:30pm and it is now 10:30 pm and he still hasn't gone. He ate his dinner at 5:00 pm and has been outside at least 20 times since then. We...

    How to teach puppy to let you know he needs to go?

    Maybe our bulldog pup is too young to do this, (10.5 weeks) but I was wondering the best way to train him to let us know he needs to go.

    My puppy won't listen to me!

    We have a 8.5 week Victorian Bulldog, and he is wonderful for my husband. If he bites him he just has to say OW! and Magnus will let go or mouth very gently. If he bites me and I say OW! or OUT even as loudly as I can, he will still continue to bite hard. Obviously my husband has been able to...

    Do pet repellents really work?

    We are trying to teach our 7 week old Victorian Bulldog boundaries, and it isn't going terribly well. He loves to go in the garden and eat the cedar mulch and as many times as we remove him and say no he goes immediately back to the area. I noticed some pet repellents at the pet store but I am...

    Can you overfeed a puppy?

    We just got our 7 week old Victorian Bulldog 4 days ago, and the breeder told us he fed him twice a day-once first thing in the am and then again around 4:30pm. For the first couple of days we followed this schedule, but when I talked to a friend of mine who breeds Border Terriers, she said...
