Exercise:

½ - 1 hour a day.

Most bulldogs are fairly relaxed so it's important to find an activity they enjoy for exercise. Some enjoy chasing balls, others enjoy chasing people, and some enjoy a good long walk. But regardless of how your bulldog gets exercised, it's important to do so because bulldog tails, which are straight or screwed, can become inverted if they gain too much weight. It's wise to walk your bulldog on a harness instead of a collar because it's easy to damage a bulldog's trachea by pulling too hard. If it's important to you to have an active dog, the Bulldog isn't for you. A Bulldog's default setting includes sleeping, farting and snoring.

Grooming:

Once a week. Expect your bulldog to shed nearly every day. A soft brush will help to keep shedding down. It's important to clean the folds on a bulldog's nose and under the body because they trap dirt and can be prone to infection. You'll find you may need to wipe the drool from your bulldog's mouth regularly.

Food:

High protein, low carbs, and no wheat as they have a tendency to put on weight and many have allergies. Many bulldogs eat a half cup of food in the morning and a half cup in the evening. Inquire with your vet how much your bulldog should be eating daily.

Training:

Somewhat difficult. Aggression has been bred out of bulldogs and it's unwise to use a heavy hand when training these dogs. Instead, establish strong leadership by restricting your bulldog's activities. You can restrict food, playing and social contact. It's important to show that you control where your bulldog sleeps, eats and plays so he knows you're in charge. Then, use positive reinforcement with treats when your bulldog behaves in the manner you want. It's important to give your bulldog lots of praise.

Bulldog temperament:

Bulldogs are known for their docile, friendly and willful personalities. That said, they're great with children and will allow them to crawl all over. Most owners describe bulldogs as having a laid back personality. Bulldog puppies tend to have more energy than adults. You'll find as your puppy matures he or she will prefer a lazy afternoon cuddle session to a long walk. Most bulldogs are friendly and they get along well with other dogs but they're not typically enthusiastic. They're intelligent dogs and can go through obedience training.

Bulldog History:

Bulldogs had been popular in Europe for bull baiting in the 13th century through the 1800s. They were bred to hold onto a bull's nose or throat which is why they were bred to have a stocky build and a shortened nose. After bull baiting was outlawed in 1835 breeders continued to sell it due to its distinctive look. Many people in the U.S. used bulldogs to round up cattle. Modern bulldogs you see today were created by crossing Olde English Bulldogges with Pugs which further shortened the dog's snout.

Sociability:

Friendly when socialized. Many bulldogs are indifferent to other dogs.
