Congratulations on the new addition to your family! I think having 2 bullies would be great. Occasionally, I'll put the video in that I made the day we picked up Tipper in September '98. As soon as Tipper hears the bull terriers barking & sees them on the TV screen, she goes nuts. She jumps up at the TV, tail wagging frantically & barks like mad. She realizes that the dogs she sees & hears on the TV are like her. I think she would have gotten along great with another bully but since it was our 1st, we didn't know what to expect especially after reading about them & seeing the warnings that bullies aren't for everyone. Good luck with puppyhood... Tim

hi mc are bullies as rare where you are as they are here i have only seen two and they were both crossed having two dogs is as easy as one once the routine is established i think the younger one copies the older house training takes no time at all jake was very quick and zak was just as good i have a wheelchair when i go out and although zak barks at prams and bikes he walks by the side of me and is no trouble keep trying two are twice as much pleasure and twice as much love

Hi Jan. Tipper only shows aggression if my wife & I wrestle around having fun like tickling her, for instance. Tipper goes nuts but never tries to bite. She only barks loudly & jumps between us to break us apart. The other time is when we play our tennis ball games. Her favorite is tug-o-war with Daddy. She brings me her tennis ball after carefully positioning it in her mouth so that she has a tight grip & enough of the ball sticking out so that I can also get a good grip, then we go at it. After about a minute or so when she can't take it away from me she starts growling & it sounds vicious. She usually wins then returns for more. Sometimes I'll play dumb & grab at the right side of her mouth when the ball is in the left side of her mouth. She tries to direct the ball into my hand but I continue to grab the side where the ball isn't. After a minute or so, she'll stop, drop the ball, then pick it up in the side of her mouth that I'm grabbing at. When we're tugging she's always careful not to bite when she has to regrip. She seems to know exactly where my fingers are. Her 2nd favorite game is Tipper style soccer. She likes to pick up a shoe & nudge the ball to me using the shoe. It's amazing how accurate she is at it. She can be 3 meters away & nudge the ball 1 time & it rolls right up to me & stops. She waits for me to toss it so she can use the shoe to push it back to me. The other thing she likes is car rides. She loves to ride but always insists on me lifting her in. She will not jump into the car. She only stands on her hind legs waiting for me to hoist her up. She is fearless but HATES cardboard boxes. She looks at them like they are extra terestrials. When I finished my basement last year I noticed that she refused to step over a 2x4. I decided to see what she would do if I laid them end to end wall to wall in the garage with the garage door open. I told her to go potty. She walked up to the 2x4s on the ground & paced back & forth. She stopped, sat down & looked at me with this sad look that said, "Daddy, I'm trapped, I can't get out". I slid one board down where she had a meter with no objects on the floor & she happily pranced out to do her business. She's one crazy dog & we're crazy about her quirks.

Mungo hates vacumm cleaners, i have to take him out of the room to vacum as he tries to attack it and barks insainly, he also doesnt like any types of airosol cans (air feshners)when i spray them. I think he just doesnt like me cleaning the house!
He tends to squeak at things rather than be vicious, he is particulary funny on his walks, if people walk past him and dont show him any affection he starts to squeak and bite his lead. Basically if he isnt the center of attention he has a little tantrum! We have a group of kids that hand around the corner of our road and when they see mungo coming they all run off! this is course is the worst thing to do as he thinks they are playing and tries to run after them!

I forgot about that one, lol. Tipper also hates vacuum cleaners, leaf blowers & brooms. Whenever we try to use any of these she runs at them & bites at them. Same with an outdoor sprayer attached to a water hose. If I'm hosing off something she attacks the sprayer biting at the water. One thing I do with her as far as the vacuum goes is if she's laying on the couch & I'm using thye hose with just a brush on the end, I'll stick it to her back. She is startled at first but then lays back & enjoys getting her fur & skin sucked. She just doesn't like the action on the floor as far as the broom, vacuum attachment & leaf blower. She'll usually stop though after I've said "TIPPER, NO!" about 10 times. She's the same when the kids are around. She has to be in the middle of the action & attention. When they ignore her she starts running in circles chasing her tail. Can you say, Obsession Compulsion Disorder?
