Best containment for a bulldog is a secure proper chain.
Sounds like you said....he got worked up over them coons and redirected his aggression on your other dog. Regardless of breed, that can happen. I have seen instances of that happening. Unfortunately in this case, because he's a bulldog, the damage was much more severe. I am very sorry for your loss.
As for your question about whether a female bulldog would do something like that? Sex does not matter in that type of situation. Male or female, doesn't matter.
Again, very sorry for your loss.
I agree...yes, regardless of breed is true but once a good bull dog fires up he/she will not stop until the job is done is the biggest difference IMO...
with some bulldogs the loud noise of a mower or weed eater will fire them up or a running screeching child...just depends on the bulldog...I treat them all the same...like a loaded 357 magnum...
