Inside dogs

I know Bulldogs are inside dogs, but if the weather is tolerable, Buddy wants to be outside. It's 40 and sunny now and he won't stay in. If cold or hot yes, he will stay in, but he will bark, pout, and cause trouble, cause he wants to sit outside, in weather like today The boys don't get real dirty cause I have straw down, but is it OK? Also after dark they are in or only out together, cause of the coon next door. Pic enclosed. I took this from my front room through the window, Buddy alerted me by saying Roof, Roof, [No Kidding], and looking up on the roof next door.

Thanks

We have a doggie door too. If they are OK, I'm OK, in fact I got some work done while they are out.

Mine have access to outside almost always....they love it!

We have a doggy door and fenced in yard...I think all dogs need fresh air as much as possible! Just my opinion!

Mine love to be outside on the deck

when the weather is good. Sure, I let them. Why not??

the pugs love to be out in this weather...

Gus only wants out to do his business and then right back in.
the pugs on the other hand love it outside and spend some time out there
Bella loves it too..
it is about 40 here too..
do not leave them out for a long long time...but they do get out for sunshine..

I envy follks

who can let there bullies outside. In the South, it's only a few minutes supervised time, but we try to make up for it when we do have a couple of cool months.

Alison with Matilda at my side

my guys are always outside

when weather permits, we have a fenced in back yard and my front porch has a gate acroos, so they can follow the sun but the doors are always left open so they can come in if they choose too

Right

Ya can't be too careful. I have a chip in mine, but I still look if they start barkin'. They tell on each other. I've watched them and they are more interested in plastic bags than escaping. I just hope for good luck, and positive human behavior, which I'd admit is scary. Seems like a lot of people think they might bite. They will, they bite food, and toys and the good towels. I agree with you, but I spoiled them and they want out to be dogs. I treat mine like the kids, but I get to pick their girlfriends. I would buy a loJack for them if available. Maybe in the future, remember when the only people talking person to person on transponders [cell phones] were on Star trek? I try to tell the grandkids stuff like that, but their eyes glaze over. lol

Sanford is only outside with direct supervision from a human.

No doggie doors at my house and he's never allowed outside unless he's being watched even though my back yard is completely fenced in and private. I just couldn't bear the thought of him going missing or being stolen from my yard because I wasn't watching him.

He does love to be outside too but he gets alot of outside time with humans so I don't feel too bad and he's NEVER allowed outside at night unless I'm standing at the door watching.

I'm sure I'm over protective but I just couldn't take the chance especially with all the posts lately about bulldogs being stolen etc.
