Bulldogs can adjust to almost any living environment, from a city apartment to an open pastured farm. They enjoy the companionship of other animals, and are usually an unobtrusive house pet who doesn't demand your attention, rather, asks for it with dignity. Bulldogs are expensive. The reason for the expense is that bulldogs generally have to be artificially inseminated, and born by Caesarean Section. There is also a lot of time invested between birth and weaning as the mothers often cannot be kept with the puppies - they tend to roll over on the pups and suffocate them, or the puppies will choke on the milk because of their short snouts.
Bulldogs can have some genetic health difficulties, as can any pure bred dog.
Genetic problems may be common, but that does not excuse their occurrence. As with looking at any puppy, ensure the person you are getting the pup from is concerned for the welfare of the pups and the breed as a whole, not just in making money. For more information about selecting a bulldog, the discussion is continued on another page . If you make the decision that a bulldog is the one for you then welcome to the wonderful world of bullies, and may you enjoy the pleasures of owning one of the great characters of the dog world. In breeding Bulldogs, we hope to produce animals with excellent personalities, health, and conformation for family pets and show, while ensuring that we are not playing genetic Roulette with the breed.
