It takes a great amount of patience, skill, and imagination when training and teaching bulldogs or any other dog that belongs to the bulldog family. A bulldog one of the most reliable pets that anyone can have; these bulldogs are very faithful to the owner, dedicated as well as very smart. Just like other pet dogs, bulldogs have their own temper and can be stubborn at times. However, learning more about them, their ways and propensities, you can have the best bulldog there is. Here are some tips when training a bulldog puppy to become gentle and more obedient:

Bulldogs have high energy and they tend to get excited most of the time especially when they see you, their master! You have to consider their size. They are big and bulky and when they jump, they become too overwhelming. It's nice to know that they are warm and happy when you arrive, but jumping and pawing on you is something else. Their size is intimidating and if you continue to allow them to do so, this becomes a problem later on. Calling their name by yelling may not be that effective. The act of yelling can be interpreted as just petting them. The best thing that you can possibly do, is move and turn your back, try to fold your arms and ignore their presence. When your bulldog stops jumping, you can now pay attention to him and pat him on the back. With this, your smart bulldog will learn the right way of controlling his excitement.

It's much easier to teach your bulldog puppy when you spend a lot of time with them. They love to curl, cuddle and stay close to you....after awhile they'll become your shadow!

Aside from their high spirits, the intelligence of bulldogs is exceptional. They have a "mind of their own" trying to decide on things before they actually act. When they stare at you if you when you have an instruction, that stare is the means they're thinking about what you're saying.

Try and be consistent with your training and don't stop until your pup follows your instructions. That is, unless he's getting tired. If he won't keep eye contact, then stop for awhile until he's rested. Then push towards your goal again. You can start with a 5 minute training session and progress from there.

No matter how difficult it is to train your bulldog puppy, it is all worth it. When you see a once stubborn pup grow up to be a well-trained bulldog, it gives a sense of accomplishment. The hard work does pay off. Respect is definitely earned and you will have your best friend for life.
