Additional information (Wiki):
A Bulldog, colloquially known as the
British Bulldog, or English Bulldog, is
a type of dog which traces its ancestry
to England. It should not be confused
with other varieties such as the
American Bulldog or the French Bulldog,
which has a similar appearance.
Despite their famous "sourmug"
expression, bulldogs are generally
docile although can prove to be very
fast movers at times. They are friendly
and gregarious but occasionally willful.
The pharse "stubborn as a bulldog" is
rooted in fact.
Breeders have worked to breed aggression
out of the breed, and as such the dog is
known to be of generally good
temperament.
Bulldogs can be so attached to home and
family that they will not venture out of
the yard without a human companion. Due
to their friendly nature bulldogs are
known for getting along well with
children, other dogs and pets.
A bulldog is suitable for houses as well
as apartments due to their size and
susceptibility to the weather. Most
bulldogs are content to walk at most
half a mile and thus may suit a
less-active person. They are easily
trainable as compared with many other
breeds.
The bulldog is a stocky breed with
characteristically broad shoulders and a
matching wide head. There are generally
thick folds of skin on a bulldog's brow,
followed by round, dark, far apart eyes,
a short muzzle, drooping lips, and the
famous underbite. |
