I currentlly own my first English bulldog puppy. She's 13 weeks old. I love her to death. Any puppy can adjust to your schedule as long as you spend alot of time with it when your home. Bullies don't need a large area. Because of their pushed in face bullies snort, snore & make alot of nasal sounds. When feeding them you should put alot of water on dry food & feed them on a flat plate so they don't gulp large amounts at a time. Since they tend to have small tracheal openings they can choke on food if they take in too much too fast. It happened to me! Make sure you purchase one from a reputable breeder. A good breeder will interview you to make sure you are readey to be a bullie owner. They will explain their special needs & will be there as a support system if you have any questions. Expect to pay a considerable amount of money. Mine cost $2000. If it['s too good to be true stay away! You get what you pay for. Bullies are very clown like so you have to make sure you don't let them get away with bad behavior. I have told mine no sternly, then turned my head so she didn't see me smiling. They love people & enjoy meeting them on their walks. Let them interact as much as possible with people & other dogs. You'll also get the chance to brag about your new baby. A great added benefit. An English bulldog can melt your heart. I think that you have made a great choice. Good luck!

GO for it. they by far, the best breed out there. I have researched them for a whole year and you will not be let down trust me. They are expensive and trust me...do not get one from a oet store. Do not trust anyone wwho wants to seel it to you fro less than $1,000. I am serious. there are a lot of internet and other types of scams going on right now. Hey you can email me and I will give you some really great breeder websites and info if youd like. I will inform you of all you need to know depending on what you are wanting to do with the dog...ie, breed, pet, show, ect. The are truley the best dog though

English bulldogs are very nice dogs.
They are very sensitive to heat and warm weather. Make sure it never gets too hot.
They are more prone to respiratory problems than most dogs.
They are very calm and gentlemanly.

It's JUST *BULLDOG*!!! NOT "english" or "british"!!
"French Bulldogs" are an ENTIRELY different BREED !!!
Go READ the BREED STANDARDS!!! At the AKC site.
