The Top 5 Health Conditions
|
|
Bulldogs are naturally stoic and often have a remarkably high pain threshold, which means they may show few outward signs of discomfort until an issue has progressed. Understanding the early symptoms and knowing what to look out for can save you from unnecessary vet bills — and, more importantly, save your Bulldog from prolonged pain and stress that could've been prevented with early action.
|
One of the most valuable tools you'll develop as a Bulldog owner is the ability to read your dog's body language (click to listen to podcast: Lost in Translation: Understanding Every Woof). Subtle changes in posture, movement, or even facial expression can be the first indicators that something isn't right. Recognising these early signs of discomfort can help you identify a health concern before it becomes critical.
Below, I've outlined five common Bulldog ailments that every responsible owner should know about — including symptoms, treatments, and how to prevent them.

1. Bloat (Gastric Dilatation and Volvulus – GDV)
What is it?
Bloat is a serious and life-threatening condition where the stomach fills with gas and may twist on itself, cutting off blood flow and causing shock.
Symptoms to watch for:
Treatment: Immediate emergency veterinary intervention is required. Time is critical — GDV can be fatal within hours. Treatment usually involves decompression, IV fluids, and surgery to untwist and tack the stomach.
Prevention tips:
Bloat is a serious and life-threatening condition where the stomach fills with gas and may twist on itself, cutting off blood flow and causing shock.
Symptoms to watch for:
- 📌 Distended or hard abdomen
- 📌 Excessive drooling
- 📌 Unproductive retching (trying to vomit, but nothing comes out)
- 📌 Restlessness or discomfort
- 📌 Pale gums and rapid heartbeat
Treatment: Immediate emergency veterinary intervention is required. Time is critical — GDV can be fatal within hours. Treatment usually involves decompression, IV fluids, and surgery to untwist and tack the stomach.
Prevention tips:
- ✅ Feed smaller, more frequent meals
- ✅ Avoid vigorous activity before and after meals
- ✅ Use slow feeders to discourage gulping
- ✅ Raise the food bowl if recommended by your vet (though this is debated)
2. Heat Stroke
What is it?
Due to their brachycephalic (short-nosed) structure, Bulldogs struggle to regulate temperature, making them prone to overheating, especially in warm weather. This risk is significantly heightened in dogs with excessive features, such as very short necks, deep skin folds around the cheeks and throat, or poor conformation that affects mobility. A Bulldog that is overweight or suffers from BOAS (Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome) is even more vulnerable. These dogs may already struggle with breathing at rest, and heat only compounds the strain.

Symptoms to watch for:
- 📌 Excessive panting or noisy breathing — also known as roaring (a rasping sound similar to a lion)
- 📌 Weakness or collapse
- 📌 Bright red or bluish gums
- 📌 Vomiting or diarrhoea
- 📌 Confusion or seizures
Prevention tips:
- ✅ Avoid walks in the heat of the day
- ✅ Always provide shade and freshwater
- ✅ Use cooling mats or vests in summer
- ✅ Never leave them in a car unattended — even for a few minutes
- ✅ Maintain a healthy weight and monitor for signs of BOAS
- ✅ Avoid exaggerated bloodlines that prioritise extreme type over functional health
3. Eye Ulcers (Corneal Ulcers)
|
What is it?
Bulldogs can have prominent eyes, making them susceptible to scratches and ulcers on the cornea — often caused by playfighting with a companion, catching an eye on a toy, or even rubbing against rough surfaces. These injuries may seem minor initially but can become serious quickly if left untreated. Symptoms to watch for:
|
|
Treatment: Prompt veterinary attention is essential, as ulcers can burst (melt) — a process where the cornea rapidly deteriorates, often within hours. This is not only extremely painful but can result in permanent vision loss or complete eye removal if not caught early.
Treatment can be intensive, often involving frequent application of antibiotic drops or ointments, pain relief, and sometimes surgical procedures. In more severe or non-healing cases, serum eye drops (made from your dog's blood) may be used alongside debriding to remove dead tissue and encourage healing or even considering stitching the eye closed.

- ✅ Wipe away any debris after walks
- ✅ Monitor for entropion (inward-turning eyelids), which may need surgical correction

Exciting news—Gigi has passed her BOAS test with a Grade 0, the best possible score! This means she has excellent respiratory health, making her an ideal candidate for breeding. But why is BOAS testing so important, and how does it benefit LaRoyal puppy owners?
Why BOAS Testing Matters
Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) affects short-nosed breeds like Bulldogs, causing breathing difficulties that can impact their quality of life. The BOAS Grading Scheme, developed by The Kennel Club and the University of Cambridge, evaluates a dog’s breathing before and after light exercise. Dogs are graded from 0 to 3:

You'll read within our breed, 'head nods' or 'tremors' aren't uncommon. However, in my decades of Bulldog ownership, I've only had one female suffer from these. I used to keep a packet of Custard Cream biscuits in the cupboard with her name on them (fortunately one of my least favourite biscuits, so I was never tempted to dip into them!).
I found no pattern or triggers for her head shakes, and after blood tests that showed no precise diagnosis, the vets ruled out poisons, toxins, pain, or infections. It's widely accepted that these tremors could be due to low blood sugar or calcium. Offering her a Custard Cream used to snap her out of the shaking ‘habit’, if nothing else!
However, this same female did go on to show early signs of Canine Cognitive Dysfunction (CCD), signalled by poor memory and unnecessary barking - so I have no doubt the two were connected. As dogs age, they may require additional care and attention to maintain their health and well-being. Just like humans, senior dogs can experience various age-related issues, including joint problems, decreased mobility, and cognitive decline. In this blog, I’ll share the common symptoms in ageing dogs, how to manage canine cognitive dysfunction and supplements that can help prevent the onset of age-related issues.

Common Symptoms in Aging Dogs:
📌 Joint Pain and Stiffness: Arthritis and other joint issues are common in older dogs, leading to pain, stiffness, and difficulty moving. Check out my "Keeping Bulldogs Active" blog for more practical tips.
📌 Weight Gain: Older dogs may gain weight more easily as metabolism slows, exacerbating joint problems and other health issues. Consider switching to a low-calorie senior food with additional joint support supplements.
📌 Decreased Mobility: Senior dogs may have trouble climbing stairs, jumping onto furniture, or standing up and laying down. Avoid unnecessary jumping and add ramps or steps to help them navigate their environment.
📌 Cognitive Decline: Signs of canine cognitive dysfunction (CCD) include disorientation, changes in sleep patterns, loss of housetraining, and altered interactions with family members. These changes can appear quickly and may be challenging to diagnose and treat.
📌 Hearing and Vision Loss: Aging dogs may experience a decline in their hearing and vision, leading to increased anxiety and behavioural changes.
📌 Dental Problems: Dental issues, such as gum disease and tooth loss, are common in older dogs and can affect their ability to eat and overall health.

Managing Canine Cognitive Dysfunction (CCD)
Canine Cognitive Dysfunction (CCD) is similar to dementia in humans and affects many older dogs. Here are some ways to care for a dog with CCD:
✅ Routine and Consistency: To reduce confusion and anxiety, keep a consistent daily routine. Regular feeding times, walks, and bedtime routines can help your dog feel more secure.
✅ Mental Stimulation: Engage your dog in activities that challenge their mind. Puzzle toys, scent games, and training sessions can help keep their brain active and slow cognitive decline.
✅ Environmental Enrichment: Provide a stimulating environment with toys, chew items, and interactive play. Rotate toys regularly to keep your dog interested and engaged.
✅ Behavioural Support: Use positive reinforcement to encourage desired behaviours. Avoid punishment, as it can increase anxiety and confusion in dogs with CCD.

Supplements to Prevent Age-Related Issue
Several supplements can help support your dog's health as they age and may prevent or delay the onset of age-related issues:
🍽️ Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Omega-3s in fish oil have anti-inflammatory properties and support brain health. They can help reduce inflammation in joints and support cognitive function. Krill oil is considered a high-quality Omega-3 supplement.
🍽️ Antioxidants: High quality supplements like Vitamin E, Vitamin C, and coenzyme Q10 can help protect against oxidative stress, which is linked to ageing and cognitive decline.
🍽️ Glucosamine and Chondroitin: These supplements support joint health by maintaining cartilage and reducing inflammation. They are commonly used to manage arthritis and improve mobility in older dogs.
🍽️ Phosphatidylserine: This supplement supports cognitive function and can help improve memory and learning in aging dogs.
🍽️ SAMe (S-Adenosylmethionine): SAMe supports liver function and has been shown to improve mood and cognitive function in dogs with CCD.
🍽️ Medium-Chain Triglycerides (MCTs): Found in coconut oil, MCTs can provide an alternative energy source for the brain and support cognitive function. Organic, virgin coconut oil is best when adding this into the diet, as it is higher in antioxidants.
These are two products I've used and found beneficial for dogs with CCD or ageing dogs:
🛒 RenewMe™ Vitality & Cognitive Support Capsules for Cats & Dogs:➡️ RenewMe
🛒 AKTIVAIT® Brain Function Support Supplement for Dogs: ➡️ AKTIVAIT

Caring for an aging dog requires patience, attention, and a proactive approach to their health and well-being. Recognising and addressing common symptoms, managing canine cognitive dysfunction, and incorporating supplements can help support your dog's health as they age. By taking these steps, you can ensure your senior dog enjoys a happy, healthy, and fulfilling life!
| In the world of Bulldogs, ageing is akin to the maturation of fine wine - each year adds depth to their character and personality. Like a prized vintage, Bulldogs benefit from allowing nature to take its course before considering interventions, like neutering (for males) and spaying (for females). ★ Timing Is Everything All dogs, including Bulldogs, should typically reach physical and hormonal maturity before undergoing neutering which is often considered around 18 months to 2 years old. This ensures they fully develop physically and emotionally, guided by natural hormonal changes. |  |
Once your Bulldog reaches maturity, it might be worth discussing spay or neuter options with your vet. Although I personally prefer to leave them intact, making an informed decision that best suits your Bulldog's health and lifestyle is essential. This blog will explore the pros and cons of spaying and neutering and the different methods available.
The Pros and Cons of Spaying and Neutering
★ FEMALES:
Pros of Spaying (Female):
- Prevention of Pyometra: Pyometra is a life-threatening infection of the uterus that can be effectively prevented by spaying. The risk of developing pyometra increases significantly with age, and operating on an older dog can be more risky. Additionally, a scheduled spay is typically less expensive than an emergency pyometra spay (ovariohysterectomy) due to the added complexity and the dog's compromised health during an infection.
- Reduced Risk of Mammary Tumours: Spaying significantly reduces the risk of developing mammary tumours.
- Elimination of Heat Cycles: Spaying eliminates the behavioural and hygienic challenges associated with a female dog's heat cycles.
- Surgical Risks: As with any surgery, there are risks associated with anaesthesia and the procedure.
- Potential Weight Gain: Spayed dogs may tend to gain weight, which requires careful diet and exercise management.
- Hormonal Changes: Removal of the ovaries can cause hormonal changes that may affect coat luster along with temperament and behaviour.
Different Types of Spay Methods
When considering spaying your girl, it's essential to understand the different methods available. Each method has its advantages and considerations:
Ovariohysterectomy (Traditional 'Open' Spay):
This procedure is not all that common in the UK yet, but is possible and commonplace in other areas of the world.
Ovariohysterectomy (Traditional 'Open' Spay):
- Procedure: Involves the removal of the ovaries and uterus through an incision in the abdomen.
- Benefits: Comprehensive removal of the reproductive tissues reduces the risk of reproductive cancers and eliminates heat cycles.
- Considerations: It is a more invasive procedure with a longer recovery time. Body suits or buster collars post-op typically aren’t required for this Breed because they are too short in spine to be able to bend and nibble at stitches or incision.
- Procedure: Only the ovaries are removed, leaving the uterus intact.
- Benefits: Less invasive than a full traditional spay with a slightly quicker recovery time.
- Considerations: While it eliminates the risk of ovarian cancer, the uterus is still at risk for issues such as stump pyometra if any ovarian tissue 'unintentionally' remains.
- Procedure: Uses small incisions and a camera to guide the removal of the ovaries.
- Benefits: Less invasive, with smaller incisions leading to a quicker recovery and less postoperative pain.
- Considerations: Typically more expensive and requires specialised veterinary equipment (that not all practices have) and expertise.
This procedure is not all that common in the UK yet, but is possible and commonplace in other areas of the world.
- Procedure: Involves making an incision to remove the uterus and cervix, while preserving the ovarian function.
- Benefits: Preserves the hormonal function provided by the ovaries, which can benefit the dog’s overall health and reduce risks associated with spay-induced hormone changes such as weight gain or coat changes.
- Considerations: It's important to note that this procedure does not prevent the risk of ovarian diseases.
While I do not routinely spay my own females, if necessary, my preferred methods are Laparoscopic Ovariectomy or Ovariohysterectomy. If you decide not to spay your female, understanding the symptoms of Pyometra is crucial, as it affects about 25% of unspayed females by age 10 and is a severe and life-threatening infection. For this reason, I suggest routinely giving a high quality, natural raspberry leaf supplement during each cycle to help maintain uterine health.
★ MALES:
Pros of Neutering (Male):
- Reduced Risk of Testicular Cancer: Neutering eliminates the risk of testicular cancer and reduces the risk of prostate problems.
- Behavioural Benefits: Neutering can reduce undesirable behaviours such as scent marking, roaming, and aggression linked to testosterone and mating instincts. However, due to the breed's companion-focused temperament, well-socialised and adjusted Bulldogs do not commonly exhibit these behaviours even when entire.
- Population Control: Neutering helps control the pet population, reducing the number of unwanted puppies. While this may not concern your endorsed pedigree Bulldog, it's still worth being aware this is usually the vet’s #1 reason for neutering.
- Surgical Risks: Similar to spaying, neutering involves surgical and anaesthesia risks. Dogs can have unforeseen and potentially fatal reactions to anaesthetics.
- Potential Weight Gain: Neutered dogs may also experience weight gain, necessitating a balanced and more careful diet with regular exercise.
- Possible Joint Problems: Early neutering has been linked to an increased risk of certain joint disorders, particularly in large breeds.
Castration Method
Castration, or neutering, for males is simpler due to the testes being external. It’s a surgical procedure where the testicles are removed under anesthetic. This procedure is generally considered routine and safe. Recovery typically involves a few days of rest and monitoring to ensure proper healing.
Deciding whether to spay or neuter your Bulldog and which method to choose depends on various factors, including your dog's health, lifestyle, and personal preferences. Here are some steps to help you make an informed decision:
- Consult Your Vet: Discuss your Bulldog's health, any pre-existing conditions, and the best timing for the possible procedure. Please bear in mind that most vets have a positive bias towards neutering.
- Research the Options: Understand the pros and cons of each spay/neuter method and how they might affect your Bulldog.
- Consider Long-term Health: Consider how the decision will impact your Bulldog's health in the long run, including potential benefits and risks and how you plan to proactively manage them including supplements or specialist nutrition advice.
While I prefer to leave my own Bulldogs intact, making an informed decision that best suits your dog's health and lifestyle is essential. You can choose the best path for your Bulldog with your vet to ensure they lead a healthy and happy life.
Poppy in her knickers Let me tell you about the little scare I had a few days ago. My youngest dog Poppy ‘the puppy’ she has had a really rough time with her first season at 9 months old. To be blunt the bleeding was horrendous and I decided after over 30 years of living with 'breeding girls' to buy some ‘dog knickers’, they are pretty cute I must admit!
One pair of unicorns and one pair black floral knickers with 14 washable sanitary towels set me back over £50! They did the job to a degree but she kept peeing in them too as she had also picked up a spot of cystitis and also the odd poo!
After what seemed to be eternity she was ‘drying up’, but the next day we had constant ‘strawberry milkshake’ discharge, I knew this meant only one thing, Pyo. Pyometra is a uterus infection that can be deadly.
It’s really unusual for dog to get Pyo with their first season, but I knew it possible. I was fortunate that I could quickly ultrasound scan her and see pockets of puss. I was even more lucky that the vets could fit me in less than an hour. Spaying is typically the first option, but given she was so young and still growing and kept to continue my bloodline I decided to take an alternative option. This meant two Alizin injections 24 hours apart altering the uterus lining and long course of antibiotics, with a 3rd injection to be given 7 days after the first. It seems a major disaster has been avoided!
This is because I followed my OATH framework for identifying problems and making sure I deal with them effectively. So what does OATH standard for?
I then observed the ‘strawberry milkshake’ discharge, that she was drinking more, quieter and lethargic. Acknowledging this wasn’t typical and took action to scan her and making an appoint ASAP for additional medical help, the last part of the framework. This framework is a perfect framework to follow as a pet owner to help you clearly identify issues and potential issue and whether you act removing unnecessary stress.
