I Am Bulldog – Hear Me Bark
Because every bulldog has a story... and every bark deserves to be heard.

I Am Bulldog, Hear Me Bark — Episode 1, Part 2: “The Comeback”

In Episode 1, Part 2 — “The Comeback,” Jason Carvalho continues the story of how passion, mistakes, humility, and growth shaped his journey in the bulldog world.

After starting out wide-eyed and learning some hard lessons along the way, Jason reflects on what it really means to come back stronger — not just with more knowledge, but with a deeper respect for the breed, the people who helped guide him, and the responsibility that comes with doing things the right way.

This episode is about growth. It is about accountability. It is about learning from where you started, owning the mistakes, and turning passion into purpose.

Jason opens up with honesty, heart, and commitment as he shares the next chapter of his journey — proving that the comeback is not just about returning, it is about returning better.

This is “The Comeback.”
This is I Am Bulldog, Hear Me Bark.

A Studio B Production

Iam Bulldog: Hear Me Bark is hosted by Jason Carvalho of Nor’Easter Bulldog, with co-host Bobby Couto of The Bobby Couto Show.

In this episode, Jason and Bobby take listeners deep into the bulldog universe — from the story of the first bulldog to the trials and tribulations of bad breeding, the hard lessons learned, and the journey toward understanding the proper methods.

They discuss the struggle, the pain, the losses, and the passion it takes to keep pushing forward in the pursuit of greatness. This is more than a conversation about bulldogs — it’s about dedication, responsibility, respect for the breed, and the undying drive to build something legendary.
