It’s not a secret that they enjoy their relaxing time, but they also have energy to burn and look for interesting ways to have fun. They save up their energy to use and focus on an activity that interests them the most. Many Bulldogs are excellent at agility training and some are even athletic enough to ride skateboards. Find your fur-kids favorite activity and remember to give them daily access to enjoying their favorite task.
Einstein Intelligence

Bullies need to see the purpose of why they need to make an action. They need to be emotionally and mentally stimulated by the activity. The will think to themselves, “Mom wants me to go to the bathroom over there and I want to go over here, why? What’s in it for me?” “oh, I get affection? Maybe I get a treat? Ok then, I will definitely do this action. Bullies are extremely intelligent and have achieved top ratings for obedience training, they just achieve it on their own time. Pet parents need to be patient and allow their fur-kid to understand what is requested of them and follow the commands. Allow your fur-kid to see the purpose of their actions and they will obey.
Don’t Like Change
Bullies do not like it when changes are made to their daily schedules. They enjoy a structure and repetitive routine and way of life. To avoid your fur-kid from becoming too committed to his daily routine always remaining the same and becoming set in his ways, mix it up a bit. As soon as your fur-kid joins the family mix up the daily schedule. Change the route frequently when you take him on walks, put his bed in different spots in the house so he gets used to sleeping in different places and have play time scheduled at different times of the day.
At times, Bullies have been labeled lazy and stubborn. You can be assured that your baby-Bully is intelligent and loves to play. Bullies just have their own unique personality and tend to do things with purpose and intention behind it. Give your fur-kid a reason to enjoy life and they will live happy, healthy and enjoyable lives.
