The bulldog is a non-sporting breed of dogs with a brindle, solid white, red or fawn colored coat or any of these colors on a white background on the coat. Descendants of the Asiatic mastiff, bulldogs were first bred in Great Britain to participate in the blood sport of bull baiting. That’s where they get their names from: bull baiting à bulldogs. And that’s not it, these bulldogs weren’t only used for bull baiting, they were also used against bears and other dangerous carnivores such as lions. During the 19th century, anti-baiting laws were passed where bulldogs could no more be used for bull baiting hence purebred bulldogs became extremely rare. However, in today’s world, this very same bulldog which was once upon a time a ferocious creature used for bull baiting and against bears, lions and other carnivores, is now a loving and gentle pet quite suitable to be used for dog shows thanks to its obedience.

French bulldogs are extremely fun loving and pleasant creatures. Even though they descend from a breed of fighter dogs who were extremely ferocious, the French bulldogs are quite the opposite. Unlike their English counterparts, French bulldogs look extremely cute, lovable and caring. They are sweet and playful with a comic personality. Clowning around is one of their best hobbies which makes them extremely hilarious and fun to be with. Curious and alert, a French bulldog would poke its nose in anything and everything which may or may not concern it. Even though the French bulldog gets along fairly well with strangers and other animals, it tends to bond pretty strongly to just one person in particular. They even tend to play around well with other dogs but some males might be aggressive towards other male dogs, other than that, they seem to gel quite well with all other dogs.

The French bulldog can’t live without company. If you just buy a French bulldog and let it be to itself, it’s probably going to get agitated and irritable. It needs its daily dose of affection and caring from its owner. They are fairly willful and demanding, however, they can be trained not to be so if the owner is patient enough. French bulldogs tend to respond better to patient trainers that those who use force. Hitting and harsh jerking would just anger the dog not allowing it to get trained properly. Clean and enthusiastic, French bulldogs are quite friendly but sometimes don’t know when to keep quiet and go around yapping, though not too loudly. One thing that you cannot miss about French bulldogs is that they’re ruthless hunters of mice.
