Breed Information
Overview
Can you say Sweetheart? While this dog breed makes an above average watchdog because of their courage, this breed is a loving companion at heart. The Bulldog is excellent with kids when socialized and should be very agreeable with guests of the house. The English Bulldog breed as a whole is heralded as one of the most well liked companion breeds in the world. The Bulldog should do well with other family pets as long as properly introduced and socialized. Owners should be aware of the breed's stance on unfamiliar dogs. They need to be socialized early and often to curb any negative feelings towards strange dogs.
The loving and gentle English Bulldog is one of the most well-liked companion dog breeds around the world. A breed of English origins, the Bulldog was first recognized as a non-sporting dog by the American Kennel Club in 1886. The original use of this breed was Bull baiting, which was eventually outlawed with the establishment of the Cruelty to Animals Act of 1835. This legislative act made the act of Bull and Bear baiting both illegal.
The current role most suitable for the English Bulldog would be as a companion or family pet, given their sweet demeanor. The English Bulldog is relatively easy to train but definitely takes some work for more complicated commands. If you are looking for a breed to sit, stay, and play dead for treats, this is the breed for you. While they may not be the sharpest tool in the shed compared to some of the other highly intelligent breeds, they are easy going and apt to please their owner. Training this breed will be accomplished with less difficulty if you make the training reward based. It's extremely rare to see a Bulldog that doesn't love a treat!
