Best way to contain a bulldog

There are many debates, as to whether its humane or not to teether a dog, in my humble opinion, its a lot better for a dog to be in a chain set up, out in the fresh air, then, being crated in a tiny box for 8hrs + waiting for its owners to come home and its also better than the nicest kennel set up, because, in a chain set up, they have much more square inch to play in.

If you have more than one bulldog in your household, male and female or both males or vice versa, you are going to eventually need to separate those dogs when there is no one to supervise them, or you will have a bad surprise when you come home from work, the proper way to contain bulldogs in my opinion is via a chain set up, many wanna be thugs, try to act tough and use a tow chain that is like 40lb, that is ridicoulous and stupid, what you need to have a solid chain set up for your dog is, a 2″ nylon collar (preferably from stillwater), a good heavy duty swivel, about 4 “S” hooks, two “O” rings, a heavy duty chain, I use 10 footer and a quarter in width, when getting your chain, keep in mind the longer the chain, the heavier it will be on the dog and then all you need is your car axle, you can get all your hardware at most hardware stores, at 1st i tried home depot, couldn’t find much of what i was looking for, Ace is much better for bulldog hardware, the car axle, you can get at any junk yard, they are cheap, i got mine for $5, just ask, for a used, non functioning rear car axle, because there are alot of use axles that are working properly , those are for cars, and you dont need lol. You can buildt your chain set up with less than $20,Below I will post some pics , showing how a correct chain

set up looks like. Good luck.
