Left Oakley Hitting The Sleeve This Is The Way We Test Confidence In Our Bulldogs. Not Many American Bulldogs Can Reach This Level As Some Blood Lines Have No Ability At All. We Have Found That Most Bulldogs Will Break At this Type Of Exercise Only The Best Will Succeeded. Oakley Was Tested By Dave Putnam  When He And His Wife Martha Stayed With Us On A Vacation  His Description Was He Bites Like An Alligator And Was Rated In The Top 10, This Was Outstanding To Here This From Such A Great Person, No One Has Done As Much Research On The American Bulldog As This Man.

Left Cooper Working The Flirt Pole, This Exercise Is One Of The Best To Increase The Prey Drive In Your Dog, Understanding When To Give The Catch Is The Most Important Part Of This Exercise. Letting The Dog Win The Catch Is The Way You Build Up The Drive. As The Dog Gets Better You Must Make The Catch Harder To Reach, This Is The Best Exercise For Conditioning Your Dog But The Dog Should Never Have To Jump And Land In Such A Position Where It Mightn't Get Injured. Be Careful Not To Do This With Yong Dogs As It Could Cause Damage To The Dogs Tendons Joints And Ligaments. We Advise That Your Dog Is At Least 12 Months Old Before This Exercise.
