the broad black nose has large nostrils. The small, thin rose ears are set highon the head while the broad, massive jaws have hanging upper lips.

The short, flat coat has a straight, smooth and glossy appearance in severalcolours including red brindle, solid red, solid white, piebald, fawn, fallow and

pale yellow, among others. To say that the bulldog has a cute yet somehow sinister appearance is anunderstatement.

Temperament

But don’t let its physical appearance deceive you although we must say that this is one of the reasonsthat non-owners ask owners about pet insurance, the former fears being attacked by the bulldog. Bulldogsare among the gentlest of dogs!

The breed is known for its affectionate, gentle and dependable nature but it is also courageous, persistentand bull-headed – truly, the traits that make it an excellent guard dog. Because of its bull baiting past, thebreed also requires strong leadership from its owners; be less than an alpha dog in the human-dog packand you will find yourself being dominated in unpleasant ways by your bulldogs.

Health Issues

Like all pure breeds, bulldogs have genetic predisposition to many healthissues. Pet insurance is then a must lest owners find themselves beingswamped by veterinary bills especially during the later stages of the dogs’lives. The most common health issues are:

Breathing problems with a few equipped with small windpipesPoor eyesightHeatstroke especially in hot space and in warm weather

If you have a female bulldog, you must look into the best pet cover pet insurance agents can provide. Thisis because bulldogs are usually born via caesarean section and the costs can be hefty.

The best thing about the English bulldog is their adaptability to apartment life because of their love for theindoors. Daily walks are a must, however, so the breed can live for its average life expectancy of 8 years –and be sure to get pet insurance every year of its life.
