Welcome to The Bulldog Information Library,
your information source dedicated to the bull dog, commonly

English bulldogs show the typical traits common to all molosser breeds but possess specific characteristics which distinguish them completely from all other dog breeds.

Fortunately the many enthusiastic English bulldog breeders and happy owners around the world know better and know that English bulldogs not only are the most adorable family dogs but are also symbolic of tenacity and reliability as shown by the many sport teams, colleges and armed forces who have chosen the English Bulldog as their logo or mascot.

Despite their marvellous temperament and disposition many bulldogs end up in rescue each year, only because those adorable plush-like English bulldog puppies grow up one day and their owners were sometimes not aware of what it entails to own a Bulldog.

More known today as a show dog and sweet-tempered family companion, the English bulldog owes its name to the fact that these dogs were once used to guard, control and bait bulls, as can still be deduced from the bulldog breed standard.

Although descended from a Mastiff-type dog, known as Mollossus, Bandog or Alaunt, today's English Bulldogs are more placid and gentle than their ancestors but their fighting dog ancestry is still noticeable in some aspects of their temperament and personality.

Their strong will and legendary courage make bulldogs rarely complain or whine; they only bark when there really is a reason and are never demanding. The bulldog's incredible tenacity has turned into loving patience.

That's why we have developed this web site constructed as a "library" where you can read our articles about the basic needs of the english bulldog, how to take care of your english bulldog puppy and what equipment to buy for your new puppy.

While browsing the many bulldog books detailing the history of the english bulldog, you may have noticed that other breeds, like the pug dog and dogue de Bordeaux, make an appearance.

Nevertheless, English bulldogs also have their detractors, who see in them nothing but lazy couch potatoes, with a body structure defying the laws of gravity and dogdom, incapable of any exercise and having nothing but health problems.
