A day in the life told by a Bully Kutta
I wake up with the sun and stretch my big frame. First, I patrol the yard, sniffing every corner. My human brings my breakfast, and I wag my tail slowly, letting them know I appreciate it. Then we go for a long walk; I walk beside them, alert and proud. Back home, I lie on the porch, watching over the house. A bird lands nearby, and I give a low, soft woof just to remind everyone I'm here. In the afternoon, my human throws a ball, and I bound after it, feeling the grass under my paws. As evening comes, I curl up at their feet, content and watchful.
A made-up story, just for fun. Not advice of any kind.
Treats they will love homemade and simple
Bully Kutta tipChoose large, low-fat dental chews and break them into smaller pieces to match his giant bite, and always supervise treat time. Because this breed can be prone to bloat, avoid giving treats right before or after vigorous exercise.
