Okay So I have read a numerous forum topics and google search as much information as I could.
My main goal is not to breed my english bulld dog just to breed. I would really like to help the breed if i could.
But there are alot of things I do not know that would need to know before i get started.
1) are there test that can be done to rule out if a english bull dog will have Entropion?
Research says: can only occur few months after birth or later in life (no idea what later in life means .. 1 year .. 2 years)
2) are there test that can be done to rule out if a english bull dog will have cherry eye?
Research says: most common in when less then 8 weeks old, or occur due to trauma to eye or head,
3) are there test that can be done to rule out if a english bull dog will have Elongate soft plate?
Research says: English Bulldogs with a elongated soft palate tend to breathe rather noisily when excited. This heavy breathing will become even more pronounced when a bulldog is hot or during periods of exercise, or when the dog is excited or agitated. A bulldog may frequently gag in an attempt to clear their airway and occasionally bring up foam and saliva while eating or drinking. The harder he breathes, the greater the swelling and elongation of the soft palate you will see their tongue turn blue as a result and their breathing may be what you describe as a hassling noise.
I am sure i am missing a bunch of stuff a learning process
