Monson The Bull Terrier Teeth Check

Monson the English Bull Terrier relaxes on the floor of our Brooklyn apartment... only to have Dave stick his finger all up in his business. When not viciously threatening the cats, and taking a rest from taking a rest, Monson generally passes gas for about 45% of the day. I know this looks cruel... but Dave was not thinking straight. Toxic fumes spewing forth from the bowels of the beast disoriented him and his finger found it's way poking dog gum.

This is not easy as it means lots of growling at first... and testing your patience. But if you don't give up, it can be very satisfying to see a change in your dog's attitude.

Is there a way you can control him on the leash and introduce him to other dogs? I really like Ed Frawley of "Leerburg Kennel Dog Training Podcast"

but once you "break" him so to speak... he'll respect you more and look to you for commands instead of just jumping

I have one Bully and 2 cats. The Bully is great with all other dogs, all kids and women... but with most men he meet, he acts aggressively and tries to take control. Because I'm aware of that, I've been proactively training him to meet strangers and then correct him. I'm still in the mix, trying to work it out, but have seen great improvement the more times I try to re-enact the scenario (of him meeting a man).

It sounds like you've got a very, very stubborn bully :) They are pretty strong headed dogs I must say. My family has been breeding them in Charleston South Carolina for a while and although I'm not a breeder, or expert or anything like that... I have been up close with a lot of bully's that were aggressive and many times it takes so much more patience than with other dogs to win their trust as well as command them. It's a tricky thing.

@decameron have you had other dogs or are you a first time bully owner?

@decameron indoors i have full control and am very much the pack leader,as soon as we leave the house all that pack leader bussiness goes out the window and he turns deaf and pulls me all over the place on the lead.i had a staff before and he was easy to control i had to watch him with other dogs but that was it,he was'nt stubborn or as strong as my bully and he was more eager to please. if i give my bully a command he thinks about it for about 5min before he does it or just turns and walks off

Hello,

I'm really sorry to hear that. My bully once grabbed another smaller dog by the throat and thrashed it about, then held it to the ground while I tried to pull him off. I could not get him off (his jaws were locked) and it scared me... I thought the other dog would be dead for sure. It turned out OK, with only a minor cuts.

It taught me a valuable lesson about this breed and how to watch for it's "almost instant" transformation.

Good luck with the situation... Sorry again...
