Title: british bulldogs! Post by: hennaly on August 17, 2006, 06:41: PM i think they are great dogs, do you get many health problems with them?
hope you dont mind me asking, i am interested as its the only thing stopping me getting one. Title: british bulldogs! Post by: poppylover on August 17, 2006, 06:53: PM no more than any other pedigree if you buy from a good line. have you been to see any?
Title: british bulldogs! Post by: hennaly on August 17, 2006, 08:08: PM no i havnt, i just always heard they suffer from several problems but to be honest i have not done the research and have a litter of pupps to contend with at the moment but i wouldnt rule them out for the future.
Title: british bulldogs! Post by: poppylover on August 17, 2006, 08:43: PM well i guess different people have different experiences, I would just say the main thing for us is to keep an eye on them in the heat but i love them to bits. they are very comical to! what pups do you have? i would love to breed in the future but would need to do more research on it to make sure i would be up to it!
Title: british bulldogs! Post by: hennaly on August 18, 2006, 06:14: AM i have a litter of rough collies, there are photos on here if you look through.
Would it be bulldogs you breed if you do. Title: british bulldogs! Post by: poppylover on August 19, 2006, 08:45: AM yes i would love to breed bulldogs although from breeder i have spoken to they are a fairly difficult breed to breed from as the man needs assistance and the pups are normally born by c section. yours are so cute! do you have trouble letting them go?
Title: british bulldogs! Post by: hennaly on August 19, 2006, 09:57: AM its been quite stressfull this time as holly was rather ill so we lost 3 out of the 7 born but should be thankful they are healthy and didnt lose mum.
I will find it hard to see them go but a friend is having one so will keep contact with her and still deciding if i should keep one but i just dont know, if one looks good show quality i may. Title: british bulldogs! Post by: poppylover on August 19, 2006, 11:00: AM i am sorry to hear that it must be heart breaking but at least the mummy is ok. do you show then? that is something i am also interested in but it seems a bit you have to be 'in' with the right people-do you find this. i used to show horses and this was the same.
Title: british bulldogs! Post by: hennaly on August 19, 2006, 11:12: AM i was just starting to show my setter puppy but have been told she has bad hips so cant anymore which is why i would love to keep a pup to show, i too used to show horses but couldnt stand the bitching and i also know for a fact judges would get phone calls the night befroe a show asking how much it would cost them to win which is why i stuck to competeing instead of showing.
Title: Re: british bulldogs! Post by: Pipster on January 23, 2007, 09:31: PM Hi
I'm a new poster with a bulldog. The main reason I joined this forum was to talk about the breed. Alfie is 5 months now and is the best thing myself and my partner have done. Were thinking of getting a 2nd bulldog. This time would be a bitch but not for breeding. Alfie is from a good line but he is a pet and don't think we will ever show him. He is currently weighing in about 3 and a half stone now. What does everyone elses bullies weigh in at the moment? Title: Re: british bulldogs! Post by: TWS on January 24, 2007, 08:21: AM I know how you feel you start to get all broody for another even though you have got one, but make sure you wait until your boy is a bit older and castrated before getting a little girlie, frustrating isn't it my little man will be 7 months in Feb (DDB not bulldog), but i am waiting until he is about 14 months before looking into getting a new baby. My partner was keen in the beginning but had never owned a dog now i think he would kill if anyone tried to harm him or take him away they love each other so!
Good luck with your baby Hi I'm a new poster with a bulldog. The main reason I joined this forum was to talk about the breed.

Title: Re: british bulldogs! Post by: TWS on January 24, 2007, 08:23: AM oh by the way i love British Bulldogs and swear once there is no more room for DDB's in the house i will cram a bulldog in :D
Title: Re: british bulldogs! Post by: Pipster on January 24, 2007, 06:18: PM Yeah we are talking about it but it wont be until March 2008. Were in the middle of selling our house to move to larger property with a bigger garden so it wouldnt be until then.
I love DDB too but just so big for our current house. There is a lad that comes in our local with his DDB and she is lovely. Its a very quiet little pub for locals and very friendly towards dogs coming in. My little Alfie loves her to bits and loves sitting with her. Title: Re: british bulldogs!
