Does anyone have any experience with bulldogs?
My boss has a bulldog who is 6 months old and as stubborn as his name suggests.
He's really cute and he sleeps most of the time, but sometimes he gets into a really rambunctious mood and I don't know what to do with him! He will chew on boxes, my purse, my mp3 player, his tire (with a box in his mouth too), my shoes and anything else he can get into. He growls and play-snaps (or at least I think he's playing) when I try to push him away and most of the time I can distract him with a pigs ear, but sometimes it just doesn't work. I've asked my boss what his "off" command is, but he doesn't have one. My boss tells me not to let him chew on boxes, but I really don't know what to do. He is like this (with me at least-he'll play when his owner is in the room, but he'll play around him and not on stuff). I don't fully trust him (because he's a pup, his teeth are quite large, and I don't know him well enough to know how far I can push him). He doesn't listen to me when I tell him to lie down.
OH! Any suggestions??
