Hello! We are new parents to our baby bulldog, Roman. He's only 4 weeks old so he's not home with us yet... we take him home on August 4th! It's going to be so hard to wait... we're obsessed already! We're a little worried because when we visited him yesterday he didn't look as roly-poly and wrinkly as his brothers and sisters (even though in his first 3 weeks he was the biggest in the litter!). Is this something we should be worried about or does he look normal? These pics were taken yesterday at 29 days old.

Thats the thing about a Bully and there growth they will sometimes make you wander cause they never seem to look like other bullies till there around 12-18 months old. They grow oddly sometimes some get tall first then put there bulkiness on some become bulky the grow taller then some get more wrinkles first then grow in to them its just strange to watch them grow.......

He looks great and a cutie too. They go though many changes as they grow, so he should be a health happy boy. Congratulations on the pup, your life will never be the same, bullies are just great dogs. I can't think of my life without one or two or three or, oh you know what I mean. Oh and if you haven't heard yet We like pictures and videos.

My breeder warned me about all the stages of bulldog growth. They will go through the gawky "teenager" stage and not fully filled out till 18 months. Although I find that my Wilson keeps on very slowly growing and filling out and he will be 3 years in August. :scared:

Hi. He is a cute pup. I'm going to agree with everyone here. They grow very awkwardly and go through a few weird looking stages. Bruno went from the what we like to call "awww" stage to the "what the?" stage to the "oh ok.. Now I see" stage. LoL
Here is a comparison pic.

What a beautiful pup Roman is. Love his colors. My Wilson is getting more wrinklie as he gets bigger - he's 6 months now. He's quite a chunk too weighing in at 43lbs this weekend. When we got him at 8 weeks he had facial winkles and leg wrinkles. He's outgrown the leg wrinkles and his facial ones have increased as has his neck wrinkles. Looking forward to seeing Roman grow up :).

Thanks everyone! We are so excited- just spent a fortune on toys, food, bed, leash, collar... whew! Trying to get a head start before bringing him home! We're going to start him on Orijen puppy 80/20, as I've read great things about this food. Fontanafox- wow, Roman looks a lot like Wilson did when he was little. He's precious!
