The Bulldog is a very unique breed.  They can appear to be aggressive dogs due to  their stature but are very gentle and friendly.  They are very loyal to their loved ones but they also have a bit of stubornness to them.  Bulldogs are best raised as indoor dogs.  Just like any puppy, they are hyper little souls but they become much more calm as they grow older.  They enjoy walks but not lengthy ones.  They tire easily so they don’t prefer too much strenuous activity.  
The English bulldog is notorious for their snoring and heavy breathing.  It’s very important to not over excercise them in the hot weather.

It’s important to find responsible English Bulldog Breeders that have good knowledge of what they do.  With an irresponsible breeder, bad temperment and health may follow if they don’t have the best interests of the puppies in mind.
