Bryn is a year old, he’s an Olde Tyme Bulldog and he’s just fab.
I can’t praise this dog highly enough, after a very poor start in life, he is still just an amazing character and is extremely loving and funny.
Bryn is very typical of the breed, he is a big fan of lounging around snoring, eating, making a mess and passing wind 💨 😆
🐾INDOORS:
He is amazing in the home, he’s quiet, he can be left for a few hours alone, with no issues (however he is young, so wouldn’t suit full time workers)
Bryn does tend to get very over stimulated with visitors, when there is excitement in the home or when playing. He is uncomfortable being held by his collar and shows some fear, however no aggression, just pulling away and cowering. We manage this by leaving a short lead attached to his collar, which he is happy for us to hold and he calms easily and quickly once his focus is changed. He is simply a teenage boy, who gets over excited and doesn’t realise how big or strong he is. He is improving all the time and with further patience, training, socialising and him maturing will eradicate his over stimulation in time.
Bryn will sleep in any room, he does love to sleep on the bed but is also happy to sleep in his own bed in the bedroom, or alone in another room.
🐾HOUSETRAINING:
Bryn is fully house trained but does prefer to toilet on a walk, rather than in the garden. He tends to pick a regular spot and wait until he gets there to go! ❤️
🐾CHILDREN:
Bryn could live with dog savvy teens who are used to large boisterous dogs. His play style is very rough so would not suit a home with young children.
🐾PETS:
Bryn is currently living with 8 other well balanced dogs. He is great with them, however, as stated, his play style is very rough and tumble, he needs careful management to ensure he doesn’t become too much for the other dogs. Most of the time he is happy to just lie with them and be quiet, but he tends to have bursts of energy, that other, less tolerant dogs may find overwhelming.
Bryn is not suitable to live with cats.
🐾EXERCISE:
Bryn is an active dog when out and about, he doesn’t need vast amounts of exercise, a couple of half hour walks a day or an hour in an enclosed field is sufficient.
During the summer months, he does over heat easily and struggles to regulate his breathing.
This needs to be monitored closely and ensured he is kept cool and hydrated throughout the summer months with limited exercise.
🐾ON THE LEAD:
Initially Bryn is very strong on the lead when leaving for his walk, but does calm down once he’s had a good sniff and settled in to his pace. He is still very curious and boisterous when meeting other dogs, and does need a strong handler to manage this. This is also something that is easy to train and manage with the right family, time and patience.
🐾RECALL;
Bryn has a serious selective hearing issue 😆
He will need further training before off lead walks are safe outside of a secure field.
🐾GENERAL POINTS:
Bryn is an amazing character, he is extremely loving and affectionate. He is a floppy, soft and gentle boy who makes us laugh every single day.
He is always desperate for cuddles and to be with you, he just loves his people.
He’s a big dope, clumsy, happy and content.
🐾HIS HOME NEEDS:
Bryn needs a home experienced in Bull breeds, who have trained a dog like Bryn before.
You will need to use positive training methods and be a patient but strong person.
You will need to be able to blank out the snoring whilst watching your favourite programmes 😆
You will need to be able to breathe through the smells he creates throughout the day and night 😆
You will need to have a great sense of humour and know that when he accidentally knocks over your best vase, he didn’t mean it, but even though he’s sorry, he’ll do it again the following day😆
You will need to live within 30 miles of Stafford for Homecheck purposes.
You will need a fully enclosed garden.
An in person home check and set adoption fee are required .
As with all our dogs, Bryn is fully vaccinated, microchipped, parasite treated up to date and Neutered.
Please fill in an adoption application on our website if you can offer Bryn the future he deserves.
