The good news is Bulldogs are usually very food motivated, so training should be a little easier if you use some delicious treats, don't break the bank buying fancy ones when you can make them at home, these awesome recipes are sure to get
even the laziest dog motivated.
If your
dog seems
lazy, is reluctant to run or play or
even get out of bed, especially the day after exercising, he may be suffering from arthritis.
he's also shedding WAY more than he used to, he's gaining weight, his poop starts out solid but by the end of the day it's liquid, he drags after 15 mins of walking (he used to be able to go for an hour no problem), and he's
even more tired and apathetic than he used to be — he's always been a
lazy dog and would only play when really excited, but now he won't play at all, ever.
In my experience, these types of leashes a.) tend to cause
dogs to act more aggressively and to pull hard on the leash; b.) are more likely to trigger a fight with another
dog since the
dog that is straining at the end of the leash looks like it is in attack mode; c.) tend to be purchased by
lazy and irresponsible
dog owners who do not train their
dogs to obey, and who tend to spoil their
dogs, causing more aggression and bratty behavior; d.) undo most of the important aspects of your obedience training and leadership over your
dog, especially obeying around distractions and coming when called, and over time they teach your
dog to charge after other
dogs, animals and
even people; e.) are hard to control once the
dog is at the end of the line, and can get caught in the leashes of other
dogs, increasing the potential for a biting or attack incident; f.) do NOT cause the
dog to get more exercise on the walk; g.) can cause a
dog to run away from you, because if you accidentally drop the leash handle, many
dogs will run from the plastic handle «chasing» them from behind and that could cause your
dog to run into traffic and die; h.) have resulted in injuries to
dogs and owners.
