What do England, the U.S. Marines, Yale University, University of Georgia, and dozens of other schools all have in common?
The dog they have all chosen to represent their tough, tenacious characters. That dog? Why, it's the Bulldog, of course!
Sometimes called the English Bulldog or the British Bulldog, the breed originated in England and has a bloody past.
It descended from fighting mastiffs that were brought to the British Isles by the Romans and was used in a bloody sport called bullbaiting.
Today, however, the Bulldog only slightly resembles his ancestors in appearance. And all of the ferociousness that he exhibited in the bullbaiting pens? Gone for good.
Despite his still ferocious appearance, you'd be hard-pressed to find a dog with a sweeter, more loving disposition. They are friendly, social, calm, balanced, compassionate, stubborn, proud and persevering.
If you are considering to own an English Bulldog, or you’ve just become a new English Bulldog owner, there are some realities you do need to fully accept.
Check out the twelve realities new English Bulldog owners must accept on the next page!…and if you already are an English Bulldog owner, see if you can relate!

Yes- he took over the big couch. If we even try to sit on it now, he WILL get on top of you and use you for his naps.

If they are in good health when you get them from a reputable breeder they don’t cost any more than any other dog. I have my second one now.
