Great article. It is so true that they are like skin babies. My husband always wonders why we didn't get a low maintenance breed. Our last two dogs were pugs, which are high maintenance too.

Fantastic article Lisa!! I think you covered pretty much everything ,i still advise first time dog owners to reed books including books on puppies as its very informative
I agree bulldogs are so much like humans ,i dont think there is another breed like it xxxx

You really nailed it Lisa. I read and read and researched before I got Dudley...it helped, but it's not the same as the EXPERIENCE. I never had children - and I won't say it's the same thing - but I do feel like I have maybe a sense of what it's like having Dudley! He's so special and loving...and snoring like a champ on the couch next to me!

ditto to what [MENTION=5232]DudleysMom[/MENTION] said. We don't have kids either, we've also never had dogs before so having Blue is quite the experience.
My vet once said, any other breed is a breeze after owning a bullie. I believe it.

Wonderful article Lisa… I have owned many dogs in my life, and english bulldogs are so very attuned to their human family. It's uncanny… They truly do become your soulmate :heart:
