Description
The Bulldog Handbook is the biggest, most up-to-date and in-depth book on the breed. There is nothing else with so much practical info and so many tips specifically for Bulldog owners. There are more than 200 breeds registered with the Kennel Clubs and all are different - but there is something extra special about the Bulldog. Line up 100 non-dog lovers, show them a variety of breeds and everyone would instantly recognise the Bulldog. The distinguished, wrinkled head and powerful body are unmistakable. And what other dog has three names - Bulldog, English Bulldog & British Bulldog? Not to mention Bully and Sourmug. Nothing could be further from the truth with these last two; despite his rugged exterior, the Bulldog is a sheep in wolf's clothing. He is gentle and placid, loves children and being part of the family; he makes you laugh and is extremely affectionate. But there is a price to pay for owning one of these rewarding dogs with the giant personality. More than any other breed, the Bulldog requires a special kind of owner - one prepared to give him the extra care and attention he needs for a happy life. Bulldogs aren't like other dogs; they have certain sensitivities, predispositions, and specialized needs. They can have health issues and be expensive to keep, so anyone thinking of owning one should do so with their eyes wide open. If you have got or are thinking of getting one of these striking dogs, then this is the only reference book you will ever need - and it makes a great gift for any Bulldog fan.
