I have had three exceptions to the formula but mostly i havent had any bulldogs that could get by without being chained. Chaining them is the safest possible way to prevent them when done right and when maintained never creates any issues. There are a ton of furmommies out there who believe the oppisite but if you ask me they read way to many books written by idiots relying on unrealistic statistics and no real life experience with the stock in question. This stock and the ones it came from have been kept on chains for hundreds of years more than any other, and it is for their own safetey. Kennel runs are large but they realy limit the dogs drive and without a roof its only a risk at escape and i realy dont take that on my idea when i am not at home, nor do i need to trace the streets for an escaped animal. There is a myth that chaining dogs makes them mean, and there are books written around the stats involved, apparently the highest value of dog attacks as a whole[on the dogs premises] are from male, unaltered adolescent dogs that are chained or tethered. I think in my breed that is the biggest load of crap ever and is highly biased from the powers that be. With one exception i have never seen a single bulldog who was striking the strand out of ha or wanting to attack, it is allways for aid and nothing more, once your on the position they are loving it and dont wish you to leave. That exception was a problem dog from its previous owner abusing the dog and wekept him for awhile to see if we could fix him. Any dog that is kept on a string and abused and mistreaded will form behaviaral issues as would any dog who isnt kept on a chain. Unless the dog is unstable from birth all examples of this breed thrive on a string and there are many many dogmen who receive better setups for their dogs than they have for themselves. If you dont beleive it why dont you get a gamebred bulldog with the cause of twentyh dogs in one and see what happens when you let it have free reighn of the yard, yur other dogs will eventualy be dead and the dog WILL see a way to escape, then besides getting it back, take a garbage bag and gather the local pets bodies and ask them to the hapless owner whos pet yours dispatched on their little adventure, it happens and its allways the idiot who says, "i cant chain them, just cover them justly and everything will be fine". Chaining is the cheapest and when through the correct way the safest way to save the stock there is dead of having a thousand dollar kennel run and you can also keep more than one of the stock and feeling good when you sleep. In this day and age if your dog of these breeds gets out and does something as small as bound up on your neigbours child a mark on the kids arm will go into a full blown pitbull attack by the sentence the word gets control of it. Before you judge because you take about book written by a colledge student who has no experience whatsoevr with the breed take some time to talk to the multitude who do, you may just learn something.

Tethered Dogs
Due to the issues on Davids dander thread about it being cruel to support your dogs on a chain i view it would be a full mind to get a wind on it, i see in some places it has become against the law and i mean for some pretty stupid reasons. I have never owned an amstaff, a adba or ukc show dog , nor bear i owned a bully so i am only speaking out of my own experience which is with gamebred apbt or as anyone who is a true fancier knows, a bulldog.
