Yeah, it’s only a noise collar though, nothing more than that. He had a barking problem when younger, but he’ a lot quieter now so doesn’t need it anymore.
Have your male frenchies been done? We was wondering whether or not to consider it. I don’t like putting bulldogs under Anesthesia unless essential.
Ahh I see. It's an unusual trait for a Frenchie to bark as they are normally well natured against it.
Yes, Keith (blame Mrs Shawrey
) has been done. He got to 18months old and was getting far too amorous with lovely green stuff leaking from places it shouldn't and making a right mess of things.
Since he was chopped he doesn't hump or have any amorous type behaviour now. He couldn't reach the area to itch or lick after post op so we didn't bother with a collar of shame as he hated the darn thing and would get stressed trying to push it off with his hind paws which we feared would open up the stitches.
He's still energetic when its play time but much more calm in general.
EDIT: most vets are happy to put them under, just make sure they have experience with brachycephalic / flat faced breeds and he'll be fine!
