...
It happens every time I lose a dog, takes a piece of my heart with him. And every dog that comes into my life gives me a piece of him. If I live long enough, all parts of my heart and dog will get to be so generous and kind as they are.

The Old bulldog
There comes a time in the life of every Bulldog starting to not be the same as always,your metabolism changes and their lifestyle as well. Reaches a different stage in whichgoing to be even more aware of everything that happens at home, from your observing site at the foot of the couch. From 7-8 years we can consider our bulldog as a senior.Adapt the exercise (moderate but every day) and food (commercial diet for senior dogs)to their age. Avoid giving fewer calories overweight if necessary, for it will not"burn"running as before. Also observe, perhaps, not heard before and that his nose isnot always. Some internal organs may also work less, as the thyroid, adrenal glands andpancreas. If it costs hold back the pee, we remove a little more often on the street. Is definitely a stage where you will have to be more attentive to their health. Life expectancy for an English Bulldog is not very high, it is rare to find examples of more than 10-12 years.

Growth Control
During the first 16 (French bulldog) to 24 (English bulldog) months to live our bulldog will experience a great development. In males it is later than in females, because thestructure of the skull is not fully developed until that age. It is important to review at leastevery 3 months (some match and vaccines, microchip, deworming) to make sure we do not show developmental disorders. If detected, such as poor growth of the bone structure, we can try to avoid it, but only if caught while still growing.

Why the bulldog are so expensive ?
This is due to problems with reproduction.
In 70% of cases we must resort to artificial insemination by how hard it is natural mating.As for delivery in 70% of the cases have to perform a cesarean. If we do well there will also be to control the dog ultrasound during gestation.
If we add the cost of the stallion, insemination, ultrasound and emergency caesarean section refers to the high cost of the race.
Furthermore, some mothers made over the cubs to protect them but they suffocate it to be monitored at least one week, 24 hours a day.

Bulldog character
One of its major features is its great affection and dependence on the group it belongs to (the family). Tends to be affectionate even with strangers.
Very useful for coexistence with humans in a flat it is quiet and little barking. If you havechildren or have them think, the Bulldog is the ideal nanny for, their background infighting bulls, it supports very well the physical pain.
Bear without flinching that pull ears or climbing on it, rather interpret it as a game.
For race training is not ideal, not lack of intelligence, if not stubbornness.
Anyway gettin patiently obey your instructions. If you see tends to be quarrelsome withother dogs, as a small child, scolding with energy to give to understand that we do not like this behavior and indeed change their behavior.
For his physique is not a great athlete, you should do moderate exercise (never intenseor sustained).
On hot days you should be very cautious to excess heat, due to its particular trachea,larynx and nostrils have an increased risk of "heat stroke"than other races.

Sore Wrinkles:
Bulldogs need care of the face area and in the deep folds. Wipe their faces with a baby wipe or unscented cloth. If needed apply baby diaper rash medicine in between the wrinkles, if they get red or raw. Always keep in between the wrinkles dry this is what is called “facial fold dermatitis”.

Demodex Mange:
There are two forms of Demodex mange, localized and generalized. Bulldogs might possibly have a outbreak of Demodex due to puberty, stress, or possibly something they are allergic to in the enviroment from which they live or the food in which they eat. This is a condition that is easily cured.

Itchy Skin:
Some bulldogs have allergies: to grass, carpet or possibility the food you are feeding them. If you can not control this with their diet then you may need to see your vet. Some dogs are allergic to corn or wheat in the food that they are being fed. But for a rash - Apply Destin diaper rash ointment daily till rash is gone.

Cherry Eye:
This is where the gland from the third eyelid protrudes in the corner of the eye. You will need to bring the dog to the vet and have it removed. This is not a major surgery! You do however need a vet that knows what he/she is doing if done incorrectly it could cause a dry eye. After a couple of days of putting ointment in the eye from the vet it will all look normal.

English Bulldog Care
Tear Stains:
If your dog has white on his face around his eyes over time you may find his face stained to red. This is caused by the tears from the dog. This may be from the coloring in the dogs food he is eating or in some cases the dog itself will produce red tears. It will happen on dark faced dogs also, but can be seen on white faced dogs more.
Below are more tear stain removal ideas.
The damp hair is a breeding ground for bacteria and yeast growth that can come from unfiltered water or dog food which makes the reddish brown discoloring on the dogs fur. You may have to try different dog foods till you find one just right for you. (The red dye in the dogs food causes a lot of this problem). Water should be in a stainless steel bowl to prevent bacteria harboring in porous materials such as plastic, unless you clean each day as I do.
