Hi, I'm very sorry if this is not the forum to post this and if it needs to be deleted I totally understand. I am a final year MSc Student, for my dissertation I have been looking into canine health issues, during my research I found that most studies on brachycephalic (short nose) breed health issues were completed in referral hospitals where animals are already ill, I therefore decided to try and find out what the actual prevalence of these issues is in society in general and what ownersโ€™ expectations or realisations have been. Participation is completely anonymous, and the survey takes 5- 10 mins to complete, I would be grateful if you could spare a few minutes to have your say. I have lots of owners of Pugs and Frenchies who have replied but very few English Bulldogs

I kind of assume that but I need to hit 380 responses for it to be deemed statistically significant otherwise whatever conclusions I can draw are deemed to be potentially wrong.

I think you would be well-served posting your link on any number of Facebook pages dedicated to Bulldogs.
โ€œBulldog Ownersโ€
โ€œI love English Bulldogsโ€
etc etc

Also, I took the survey using Lala as the โ€œreference dogโ€ and thankfully she has zero health concerns. Not sure how much help this will be. We have 3 other Bulldogs with varying health concerns and can do a survey for each if youโ€™d like that info.

It really depends on a few factors, but mostly the quality of the breeder and how the choose mates.

iv had three from the same breeder

1) needed everything done- nares, palette, saccules
2) nothing done
3) only nares at 16 weeks
