Despite its bloody beginnings, the English Bulldog is today a friendly and lovable dog that adores its family, and is unsurpassed in its relations with children. The English Bulldog loves with the depth of its heart and never tires of doing things with its owners. It usually gets along well with other animals. Playful and high-spirited as a puppy, the Bulldog grows up to be a calm and dignified adult. The English Bulldog is not for those who expect absolute obedience from their dog, though the claim that Bulldogs think more slowly than other dogs is not true.

History/Origin: The English Bulldog was bred in the early thirteenth century for bullfighting. This origin is responsible for the breed's name as well as for the dog's appearance. The short muzzle and wide lower jaw were needed for the dog to clamp itself to the bull's nose like a vise, and the nose had to be upturned so that the dog could still breathe while clinging to the bull
