Breed Health A well bred bulldog makes a wonderful pet, as they are good with children and other animals. They do not make a good jogging or hiking partners, however most people that have owned a healthy and well tempered bulldog will not own any other breed. A proper bulldogs' temperament is unique-a clown at times and sometimes very lazy but also stubborn and always seeks human attention. "They say you don't own at Bulldog, a Bulldog owns YOU!"
The overall look of a bulldog should be powerful and vigorous with a short, sturdy body. It's gait (walking movement) should look as if they are skimming the ground as if walking on their tip toes. One of the distinctive elements of the breed is their large head covered in loose skin, which is also around the neck and shoulders.
Grooming Exercise There are many useful resources which give
information on the breed, we've found many books to be a good resource and
recommend the ones below which cover all aspects of the breed, |
Newborn pups require around the clock supervision for the first few weeks
of life and for this reason bulldogs are expensive to purchase compared to
many other breeds.
Do not purchase a bulldog if you cannot give them a lot of attention and
treat them as one of the family. Bulldogs thrive on human companionship
and do not cope well when ignored or mistreated (likewise with all
animals!!).
