Description:
Buddy's owners were moving and were not able to take this beautiful dog with him. This big boy loves to play and likes other dogs. Buddy should live in an adult only homes as he does not like children. He loves to play but watch out -- he does not share anything resembling a plastic bottle with other dogs or humans!  He loves to play with toys but like most Bulldogs can be destructive with them.  He knows how to give High Five and enjoys belly rubs!
  • Leash Manners - He is alright on a leash, he walks with you for a bit but sometimes he will suddenly try and go off and he is stronger than he looks. We just used a regular collar.
  • Crate/House Training - He whines in the crate for a bit but will eventually quiet down. He is good in the house when you're home but seems to have a peeing problem when you're not home.
  • Socialization - He is a total sweetheart with people, though he does get a bit hyper when someone new comes along so I'm not sure kids under 8 would be good for him. No problems I can see with dogs or cats
  • Energy Level and Exercise - I'd say moderate, he is lazy most of the time but he needs to be walked every day, preferably multiple times because he'll get a bit hyper otherwise. 
  • Daily Structure and Schedule - A walk every day and feeding once in the morning and once at night.
  • Temperament - Seems to be more submissive and he responded well to the new situation.
  • Obedience Training - He knows Sit and Come.  It was said he new how to give high fives but we never got that out of him so I don't know about that!
  • Behaviors - He does not handle plastic bottles well at all, and it can be difficult to get them away from him once he has them. He seems to have an anxiety peeing problem too.
  • Personality Quirks - He is hilarious, one of the funniest dogs I've ever met. The noises he makes and everything are just fun to watch, he is a big cuddler and overall sweety.
  • Ideal Home - I think an older person/couple with no kids would be best and someone who is willing to work with him.
According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, Although the English Bulldogs appearance can be somewhat intimidating, it is among the gentlest of dogs. Just the same it will see off any intruder, and few would risk a close encounter with a dog brave enough to bait a bull. It is described as a very affectionate and dependable animal, gentle with children, but known for its courage and its excellent guarding abilities. Bullheaded and stubborn, this breed can be very persistent. They do not give up easily. Bulldogs are very much a peoples dog seeking out human attention and loving every bit it can get!! A lot of human attention is required for the breed's happiness. Some English Bulldogs can be a bit dominating and need an owner who knows how to display strong leadership and understands alpha canine behavior. A Bulldog who understands it's *place* in the human pack, is nice to, and reliable with all people. This breed is good with family pets, but some can be scrappy with strange dogs. When Bulldogs are young, they are full of energy, but slow down as they get older. They snore very loudly, and most have drool and slobber tendencies. Today's bulldog has a very different temperament from those of his ancestors. The breed is descended from the ancient Asiatic mastiff, but its development took place completely in Great Britain. The name bulldog, which is medieval in origin, refers not only to the robust look of a little bull, which this aggressive dog has, but also to the power with which this dog attacked bulls in arena combat before that practice was prohibited by law in the nineteenth century. The English Bulldog is good for apartment life. They are very inactive indoors and will do okay without a yard. This breed is an indoor dog. Bulldogs do best in temperate climates as the breed can chill easily in cold weather and have trouble cooling off in very hot weather. They have an average life span of 8 years. Some live longer while others live shorter lives.
