Pete and Ashlee Enlist Cesar's Help With Baby Bronx

December 17, 2008

Well before Bronx Mowgli entered the world, Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson asked Cesar Millan for help with prepping their two dogs, Hemingway and new pup, Rigby, for the baby's arrival. The trainer offered tips on consistency and a rather unusual way to work off the bulldogs' excess energy. Watch a sneak peek of the episode of The Dog Whisperer starring this fam (airing on Dec. 28) to learn more.

I hope that the dogs are behaving with baby Bronx!

Bulldogs are small size wise, but weight and strength wise they are large. My family has one and he weighs a little over 70lbs -- and it's mainly muscle. The bad thing about them, is that they don't know their own strength. Other than that, I think they are great dogs!

I have a long hair chihuahua X papillion and he LOVES running on the treadmill. It's perfectly safe. We stay in the same room with him and obviously it's not up too high but he can get up quite a pace and really looks happy while doing it.

And I agree, I think of Bulldogs as small dogs.

You can put a dog on a treadmill. You need to stay with it the first few times to get him used to it, but it's fine. Cesar talks about it in his book. And I agree, I think of Bulldogs and small dogs. And I guess I don't think of super small dogs as dogs at all.

I dont like them either. My neighbors have them and they freak me out. They should keep the baby away from their dogs hopefully.

It's so true that bulldogs get jealous easily....I hate bulldogs to this day because I had a bad incident with one when I was little. When my mom's friend had a baby, we went over to her house to see them and I went outside to see their bulldog. Apparently the bulldog was an old family pet and he was jealous that the new baby was receiving all of the attention. When I went over to pet the dog,he tackled me and bit me all over my mouth & face. Luckily, I didn't have to get stitches but my mom was freaked out and I still have a tiny scar to this day under my nose.

Is it weird that I consider bulldogs small? I guess Im just use to large dogs as a normal size

Is that safe to put a dog on the treadmill? Don't get me wrong I would love to do that with my energetic boarder collie, but I get board of doing it, I think my dog would jump off and break a leg in the process. They should just hire a dog walker if they can't do it themselves.

Hm interesting way of staying in the lime light I suppose. Kudos for being somewhat creative instead of just selling baby pix. :)
