My neighbor and I were out with his Bulldog puppy this afternoon, and I was surprised to see some people crossing the street to avoid him. N. says this happens all the time. Boomer is 6 months old, not quite knee-high, and weighs about 25 kg. (55 lbs.). He's pretty much "full-grown" now, but is so obviously still a puppy - a bit clumsy, still lifting his leg inconsistently, exploring and wanting to taste/sniff everything, etc.. His breeder had kids and cats, in addition to her dogs, and this is one very laid-back dog, who wants to get along with everybody. His tail (undocked) is constantly wagging. He's extremely obedient, quiet, and well-mannered (can't you tell I just love this dog?). He's so good that N. can take him to the office, and hasn't had any complaints from colleagues or clients.
We used to get this reaction with our Boxer, but that I could almost understand, because he was quite large, but a Bulldog? Surely people can't be confusing a Bulldog with a Pitbull?
