Crate training will have many benefits for your bulldog, including protecting him from household hazards and reducing his separation anxiety. To begin crate training, you will need to select the right-sized crate for your bulldog. It should be either 24 x 30 inches (61 x 76 cm) or 24 x 36 inches (61 x 91 cm) for a French bulldog, and either 42 x 30 inches (107 x 76 cm) or 42 x 36 inches (107 x 91 cm) for an American bulldog. Your bulldog should be able to sit, stand, and lie down easily in the crate, but not have enough space to create a bathroom area. If you have a puppy, consider purchasing a crate with an adjustable divider. This will allow you to increase the crate space as your puppy grows into an adult. The crate should be a place of safety and comfort for your bulldog. The more welcoming it feels to him, the more likely he'll want to spend time inside of it. Place his favorite blanket and toys in the crate. You can also place a quilt or sheet over the crate to make it feel like a cozy den. In addition, place his food and water bowls in the crate. Since bulldogs are motivated by food, place some food in your bulldog's bowl or on the crate floor to encourage him to enter the crate. A bowl would preferable, since he wouldn't be able to pull it out of the crate very easily. Whenever he enters the crate, give him lots of verbal praisethis will teach him that going inside his crate is a good thing. Leave the door open during the early stages of crate training so he can explore the crate at his leisure. Consider giving him a verbal command, such as 'crate,' to enter the crate. Immediately give him a treat and verbal praise when he enters the crate after your command. Once your bulldog is comfortable entering the crate on his own, work on closing its door behind him. Start with closing the door for only a few seconds and then letting him out. If he starts whining or crying, wait until he calms down before opening the door. When he can handle a few seconds, close the door, leave the room, and return after random lengths of time (e.g., 2 minutes, 5 minutes). Opening the door only when he is calm will teach him not to use whining and crying to get your attention while he is in the crate. Remember that puppies cannot hold their bladders for very long, so you should not leave your puppy bulldog in the crate for long time periods. Until 12 months of age, puppies can hold their bladders for about 1 hour per month of age. When you are home, spend time with your bulldog while he is in the crate. Bulldogs are friendly and sociable dogs; interacting with your bulldog will keep him from getting lonely. Always remember that the crate is a place of safety and comfort, not punishment. No matter how frustrated you get with your bulldog, especially if he has misbehaved, never send him to his crate to punish him. Your bulldog should always have a positive association with the crate.

Summary: Purchase a crate. Make the crate feel like home to your bulldog. Encourage your bulldog to explore the crate. Practice leaving your bulldog in the crate. Do not use the crate as punishment.

When you know your man is with another person, it's normal to want to feel superior to them. However, trying to best his partner is unlikely to get him to leave and will probably make you miserable. Instead, focus on being your best self and doing things that are important to you. If it's meant to be, he'll love you for who you are. Don't stalk your man's partner on social media or ask your friends to check up on them. Similarly, don't ask him about what his partner is doing. When you find your thoughts straying to questions like, "Why does he pick her?" try to turn your attention to what's going well in your life. Tell yourself, "I've had a great weekend," "I just got a raise," or "I have the best friends." You might feel guilty for letting yourself fall in love with a guy who is unavailable. This is normal, but torturing yourself isn't going to make things better. Remind yourself that you just want to feel love and you deserve to be happy. Tell yourself, "It's impossible to control who you fall in love with. I deserve to find love, so I'm not going to feel guilty for falling in love with someone who's unavailable." Depending on how your affair began, it's possible that he doesn't realize you've fallen in love. It can be really painful to love a man who isn't giving you that love back. Talk to him about how you feel and what you want. This can help you either move forward in your relationship with him or figure out if it's time to move on. You might say, "I know we started this as a fling, but I've fallen in love with you. I want to discuss our future." It's possible that he'll get upset when you tell him the truth. This can be really hard to hear, but you will get through this. If he has a negative response, call your friend for support. Your situation might feel really stressful, and you don't have to do this alone. If you're feeling overwhelmed, a therapist can help you deal with your emotions and change your thoughts. Additionally, they can help you decide what's best for your future and pursue your goals. If you feel like no one in your life supports you, a therapist may be the answer. They'll focus on what's best for you in a non-judgemental way. Ask your doctor for a referral to a therapist or look for one online. Your therapy appointments may be covered by your insurance, so check your benefits. Being in love with a married man can leave you with a lot of conflicting emotions. You might feel happy that you found a man you love, but it may also be hard because he has another family. Look for a friend who will support you during this time. This can help you work through your feelings. You might say, "I really need to talk about my relationship, but I know not everyone understands it. Can I trust you?"
Summary: Avoid trying to compete with his partner. Forgive yourself for falling in love with a married man if you feel guilty. Be honest with him about how you feel if you're hurting. Talk to a therapist if you're struggling with this situation. Find a friend you can confide in without feeling judged.
