Healthy dog breed: *EXISTS*
American Kennel Club: "Oh, what a cute dog! It would be cuter deformed!"
This what I mean when people use poor breeding standards as support for "adopt, don't shop!" The general public doesn't really have a say in what constitutes a "proper" bulldog or pug; it's the Kennel Club, and until they change the breed standard(s) to be healthier, it won't change. People will buy whatever bulldog is available, and it's not like it's impossible to have that cute, squishy look with a longer snout. There are breeders working to breed out some of these more harmful traits, and I have a lot of respect for them going against the grain set by the Kennel Club.
@@CanidRose Right? The AKC has amazing lineage tracking but their breed standards are garbage for most of the dogs. Its hard to have a good registry that tracks lineage but also doesn't support unhealthy breed regulations; I love the CKC due to them trying to help certain breeds and even allowing healthy lineage mix breeds to be registered (all dogs came from mix breeds to get to where they are, we wont be able to obtain new breeds or repair old breeds without doing so.) however, because of that they are vulnerable to puppy mills and BYBs which sucks.
@@CanidRose Really? So they actually can make the snout a little longer to provide a little more protection against respiratory illnesses? Thank you for this.
Right?? Thank you
I couldn't agree more if you'd said that chocolate tastes OK!
Breed "standards" have ruined the health of so many breeds. It's tragic.
Breed standards should be there to ensure the health and well-being of dogs, not for this.
The kennel club has a lot to answer for.
Oh but... but... the purity of the breed... the need for a master race... the Hundreich that will last a thousand years...
Things are changing. Its no longer necessary to dock a Yorkies tail.
My boss (veterinarian of 35+ years) loves bulldogs, but says an entire textbook could be made on their health concerns alone
Hawbucks is attempting to breed healthier bulldogs, though this indeed also involves deflattening the face. I'd say that's worth it, a dog is a companion, not an ornament.
Good move! I love the look of a smooshed face, but this is too much. I prefer, for example, a pug in the 1800s (almost a petite, terrier nose, far better for their health). I wonder if Bulldogs are the most unhealthy breed? They just look like they're in pain simply moving, its not just (arguably) the most brachycephalic face, but the oodles of wrinkles for yeast and bacterial growth, plus the heavy, stocky weight. I love them, but I couldn't imagine contributing to their breeding (plus I'm pro 'adopt, don't shop').
Agreed. It is okay to have breed standards for dogs but only when health considerations are taken into account. The pug/bulldog nose and the german shepard back are just some of the more egregious things that need to be 'bred out'. A paradigm shift but a healthy and welcome one. To put it bluntly it will also be in the breeders best interest I think. If you are known for breeding healthy dogs that has got to generate good press. Our westie only had the chronic ear inflammation the breed is known for but that was easy to treat with cleaning and eardrops. Never any serious hereditary ilnesses. If I still had the time I would go back to that breeder in a heartbeat.
@@skullsaintdead I think pugs and french bulldog are in the race for unhealthy breeding as well. I was once at a concert and there was a pug you could hear breathing from ten meters away.
@@preciousprincess6538 Agreed, but they're not quite as chunky, probably less hip dysplasia, obesity (of course, pending the owners contributions...).
I agree, it sounds like a worthy cause. Mankind's collective debt to bulldogkind is so heavy that ensuring the health of their future offspring is the least we can do.
My drama teacher had one named Tank. They named him that because if Tank had enough of a walk, he would sit down and refuse to move. She once got him home by putting him on a skateboard and other times her husband carried him.
My pitty does that too đ€Ł she's a lazy bum
And I thought my beagle Reagan was bad. đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
I swear she hated all things that had to do with exercise.
I have fewer than 1 friend in the World. That's right. Everybody disses me for making bad videos. I think they are perfect though. Who is right? My dissers or me? Which side are you on, dear the
I'm just imagining the dog on a skateboard, looking like a royal
Same here, i knew a teacher from my st laurence school, who used to have a bulldog by the same name?
I love English bulldogs. But Iâll will never get one. We had one growing up and he passed away at 1.5 years old due to a heart attack. The breeder offered a new dog but we didnât want to go through that again. Iâll never ever get a unhealthy dog breed. The truth is that you have to get lucky to get a healthy bulldog ( or other short nosed breeds). They often canât even breed naturally anymore. That is Mother Nature saying STOP IT!
Yeah people need to stop putting their own vanity over their pets happiness. đ€
Yeah, I decided I really couldnt ever have a short snout breed after a friend of my mom's pug died really suddenly at only four years old. No previous sign anything was seriously wrong, just died in his sleep. Pugs and Bulldogs can be really cute but it's terrible how many pass on so young.
@@0utskirtsOfNowhere oh it's so sad... Sorry for that ... Pugs usually have very nice personalities
I was really alarmed when I learned French bulldogs can't breed on their own like if nature won't let them exist why are we breeding them to have bad quality of life? Humans really suck a lot of the time
Having those kind of issues is why I really just like to have a mutt.
Live longer with far less issues.
My mother's Victorian bulldog tore ligaments in both his legs by age three because he would sprint about, unaware of the limits of his body. The vet says that he shouldn't be permitted to run around in open spaces, so he's made to stay inside and watches sadly from the door as my labradors chase around the yard and play. I feel so bad that he'd been bred in such a way that he can't enjoy life as a dog.
Same for my dogâŠjust found out last week both legs completely torn and a meniscal tear..so so awful
jesus, that's awful
@@hetakari Christ again. How are they breeding these dogs that they get injuries from running around.
@Pumpkin English bulldogs can't even give birth naturally. A vet has to perform a c-section. It's insane what people did to many dog breeds. As lovable as they are I don't want a dog who has trouble breathing.
@@Maialeen I'm pretty sure they can't breed naturally either...
Dremel makes an attachment specifically for trimming dogs' nails that protects the dog from accidentally being touched with it and collects the dust.
My dog won't sit still for regular clippers but tolerates the sanding drum on a Dremel. I'll get the attachment. Thank you.
Yeah, I bought a nail dremel off Amazon and it has a safety attachment on it. I just have to make sure my dog's fur is out of the way.
I hate those attachments, I really prefer just using the dremel fully exposed. I've deremeled dogs nails for years, it's so much easier without that cover
Man, you should be payed. That's a good AD. lol
Dremel is great
Kennel Club - take a healthy breed and turn it into something that suffers.
The kennel club motto is âbeauty is pain and genetic disordersâ
I started grieving when I found out the AKC was in process of recognizing the American Bulldog; my childhood dog. Genetic deformities, and more people being aware of it's existence so it can be used in dogfighting here we come!! đ
I watched last year's dog show or maybe the year before (AKC? I don't remember, it was the one that airs during the Superbowl) and just seeing a German Shepard's poor back was enough to switch to something else. It didn't look like simple nervousness and appeared to be permanently cowering. I felt sad for it.
Like democrats and force feeding transgender propaganda?
There are thankfully a few breeders in Germany and France working to breed some of the less healthy traits out of the British Bulldog bloodline. It's a shame because I love these dogs so much but they have to suffer because someone decided them having a flat face was necessary. Hopefully in years to come the more traditional breed will make a comeback and they can be happier, healthier dogs.
American Bullies are kinda like that.
Same with GSDs. Many responsible breeders are breeding for health and getting rid of that disgusting C/Roach back.
One of the problems with "back breeding" is, that there is no guarantee that a longer snout also gets the "inner air pipes" back to "normal" ... It's not so easy to stretch the whole inside again too. :(
Bulldogs seem to have such a nice personality it pains me every time I see one walking by that breathes so heavily.
Every single time i see one of them i think of the breathing issues. It's not fair to them or to any other breed, to enhance traits while detracting from their health.
So, your solution is? Mass extermination of all breeds with any genetic problem?
@@TwitchCronos100 If you mean not perpetuating the same genetic issues in new generations of dogs...yes
@@TwitchCronos100 Breeding bulldogs with other breeds so they won't have health issues but won't have flat snouts isn't exactly mass extermination.
Hey i cant breathe either hehe
@@TwitchCronos100 it is not a matter of extermination, but should've rather been a matter of not creating or keeping alive a breed that would end up suffering because of very specific traits they were built upon.
Churro, what a fitting name for a dog with such cute rolls
I find it hilarious that you noted chronic farting as a personality trait.
Ah, you beat me to it.
you usually call it a personality trait once you've fallen victim to them dutch oven-ing an entire living room in seven minutes.
Everyone thatâs been near one of these beasts laughed their collective butts off at that comment. I promise.
that chubber body looks like it could produce methane. lol
A buddy had one when we were growing up. Absolutely brilliant dog but constantly letting rip.
I suppose, from my POV, the good thing is that I think purebred dogs are becoming less popular nowadays, due to our knowledge of what this sort of selective breeding can do. My girlfriend's sister has 2 Puggle mixes, and they have protruding snouts, while still looking recognisably like a pug. Its things like that, for me, that make me happy for our knowledge of this sort of thing. We need to fix the mistakes of 'fashion', and give these animals a better quality of life, instead of making them not able to breathe, live, and play.
Depends a lot on the breed. Some breeds, especially those still actively used for actual work, are still pretty good. Some people choose purebreds because they need particular traits, and purebreds from reliable, ethical breeders have a much greater chance of having those traits while finding the right combination of traits in a mixed breed (especially one from a shelter) is a very risky crapshoot.
For example: Iâm looking for a psychiatric service dog. This would be not only my first service dog, but my first dog in general. As much as I would love to adopt a rescue from a shelter or organization, I donât have the money to risk on a dog that has a high chance of washing out of the training program, and I also just do not have the experience or confidence necessary to train out any bad habits or trauma a rescue might have. I really do need to start with a âclean slateâ and a breed that has a very reliable chance of having exactly what I need.
I ended up settling on the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. Theyâre not a well-known breed and a bit hard to find, but they have the intelligence, energy, and sensitivity that I need in a service dog, while also being more adaptable to apartments and not quite as clingy as other retrievers. While labs and goldens are much more popular for service work, theyâre also victims of their own popularity: shorter lifespans, lots of health problems, some are *too* friendly (meaning theyâve lost virtually all inhibitions and wonât hesitate to bite someone), and thereâs massive splits between field lines, show lines, pet lines, etc. Same with poodles and German Shepherds; the latter were already a crapshoot for service work, as theyâre so multi-purpose that finding a puppy suited to a particular type of work takes a lot of extra effort and experience.
The toller is smaller than a Golden or lab (in the 30-60 pound range, rather than 60-80), they have longer lifespans (12-14+ years, as opposed to 8-10), and are generally much healthier (labs are extremely prone to obesity and goldens have become almost synonymous with cancer). Theyâre also slightly smarter, which is massively important to me as my panic attacks often render me unable to speak so I need a dog that can figure out what needs to be done without me giving a specific command.
Could I find all that in a mixed breed from a shelter? Maybe; itâs next to impossible to know unless Iâm able to interact with the dog for months, and I canât afford that. If I did find a dog with those traits from a shelter, would they also come with a lot of ingrained habits or their own emotional trauma? Definitely, and I donât have the necessary experience or time to train those habits back out.
So my safest bet is to get a purebred Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever from a breeder that has regularly produced service dogs in the past (which I did find, though it does involve a waitlist and traveling to British Columbia).
It really depends on the breed, and the culture that has developed around it. Some breeds I am absolutely in support of discontinuing, mostly those who canât even reproduce anymore without human assistance (for example, several flat-faced breeds now have to be artificially inseminated and canât give birth without a c-section).
But outside of that, itâs more a matter of changing the culture from one that values looks to one that values function.
Our family dog is a puggle and sheâs the most incredible pup! She looks like a small boxer with floppy ears and a white spiral tail, like a powdered donut atop her butt ^_^ but most importantly is that sheâs healthy and strong with no significant breathing or congenital issues.
@@rekkariley652 I think what's meant is that people are becoming less puritan about the breeds and are willing to drop certain features in exchange for a healthier (and happier) dog.
@@Trazynn maybe... but that doesnt mean a mix is better than a healthy breed. When breeding dogs, they have to be healthy and of good character to put it simple (within the breed-guidelines), so if you get a breed that is generally healthy, its better than a mix. There you wont know what issues the parents might have given on to your dog.
So its less about the breed vs mixed debate but more about the which-breed debate. And educate dog-owners BEFORE getting a dog (so less get a dog they are unable to deal with and they end up in shelters). For some dogs standarts are starting to shift again towards a healthier version, and that is defenditely a good thing.
@@rekkariley652 you should do a DNA test before you buy. Many breeders think they are breeding purebreds when the dog is really not yet they still received papers stating purebred when not one pup in the litter is purbreax
Our bulldog, Winston, passed last November. We miss him very much, but will always treasure our 10 years with him.
I lost my bulldog today at the ripe age of 20, and this video has cheered me right up. Thank you
Wow, that's hard to even believe. You got really lucky if you had a bulldog who lived that long.
There's no way it was an English Bulldog then.
20?!
Churro wasnât worried about strutting down the red carpet showing off how handsome he looked after a spa visit. I hope that you will have a French Bulldog visit so you can feature him/her. I love their cuteness and how they sound almost argumentative when they âdiscussâ anything because their bark is so very different.
Yeah the bark is different because they cant breathe!! French bulldogs is torture breeding, please educate yourself before you call them âcuteâ!!
@@melbu9579 They're still cute...but yes the extreme features are an issue. Have you seen retro pugs/bulldogs. Some breeders are trying to elongate the face again
@@CoolPonies These breeders and so called standard bearers are making animals that have too much health issues đ€šđ€š
@@donnap7757 they are trying to FIX what humanity fucked up...
@@melbu9579 i don't agree, only a specific part of french bulldogs are like this, my french bulldog is 5 Years old and luckily i got him from a very good seller, he doesnt have health problems, he has a kinda normal bark, his face is not so flattened as a Pug or (most) English bulldogs and is just kinda flat, he literally has muscles and breaths pretty well, i'll say that only a certain (probably inbred) kind of french bulldogs have that unhealthy traits
Just spreading the word: Clear the Shelters starts today (in the US, at least; I'm not sure if this is in Canada as well). Basically, NBC/Universal is sponsoring shelters nationwide to either reduce or waive adoption fees on pets in shelters, today through Sept 19. I know the shelter I'm heading off to now is waiving fees for a name-your-donation during the event.
THANK UU
I'll have to look up and see if this also applies to cats, my husband and I just decided to adopt in the next month or so a little kitty. Just gotta do some organizing first so we can better protect against an explorative little kitten.
Hi. I appreciated your information on WeRescue. I tried to find the app, but it was only for apple and I have android. I finally found an android app for it and iI got a 404 not found message. This even though there were over 7000 reviews. I looked at similar apps but they had very few reviews or didn't work. Don't know what I am doing wrong. Lost my two boys orange tabbies this year 4 months apart. Miss my kitties. This online adoption process is frustrating. Any thoughts are appreciated. Thank you.
Australia seems to be teaking a headstart on the shelter clearing...
Yayyyy
My aunt and uncle train aggressive dogs for a living and they foster dogs in their spare time. They only had one foster fail and it was an English Bulldog named Ginger. She is an amazing dog and she was always so gentle and hilarious. She does this thing where if my aunt and uncle are busy and she wants to play (even though they already spent hours playing with her) she will sit on their feet and if that doesint work, she will throw her toys in the air and then look back at my aunt or uncle to see if they notice, and then she does it again, and again, until after like a few minute she gets bored and just takes a nap or plays with her tug toy. Though she does not have very good manners, she is adorable and lovable and my aunt and uncle love her. She turned 4 this year! Happy belated Birthday Ginger, I know you donât have a phone and you canât read but Iâm saying it anyway!
1:32 "I mean, what other dog have you seen riding a skateboard?" Scrolls through the video catalog.... Yep, no Belgian Malinois videos yet.
The Animal Cracker channel just did a video on a Belgian Malinois and now I REALLY want to see on on this channel
i have a malinois mix and she likes to attack things with wheels
If we COULD get our Maligators to ride skateboards we would NEVER see them again as they scoot off into the sunset chasing some ball, real or imagined, until they circle the globe.
Then they'd STILL insist you toss their Kong toy for them. Hahaha!!
That is assuming you could teach a Maligator to ride a skateboard without first chomping it in half within, oh, I dunno, maybe 5 minutes?!?
Great companions, BTW, and I cannot ever see myself without a Maligator in my remaining time on this planet..
No Please excuse me while I go spend the next hour or so tossing my 12 year old (+) Maligator her Kong toy. Heaven forbid I get ANY sleep until SHE is happy!!
LOVE đ MY Lana, former MWD and LEO Patrol Pooch, too.
(Talk about a storied life she has had!!)
The small snout and long term health risks is what kills me inside. That WE did this by breeding them
correct... dogs do NOT breed of their own accord. Bulldogs are BREED by owners who sell the pups. They may be skilled and careful and they may be ignorant and careless...
I've seen people breeding "Olde English" bulldogs which are more inline with their historic (and healthier) appearance and I think they're much cuter when they aren't quite so squat, but it's always nice to see a happy and well behaved poochie on the grooming table.
Some are doing the same with pugs! Retro pugs
@@CoolPonies if it means some of those breeds have fewer health problems all for it.
I have an Olde English. Heâs the best of everything people love about bulldogges, without the squished face and heart issues. I got him from Cornerstone Bulldogges. Theyâre great people!! Very responsible breeders trying to improve the health of their pups.
@@figjelly3476 that's so dope
Iâm getting an olde English bulldog puppy today!
I lost my English bulldog last summer at 3, everything you've described these dogs is so true and they really are the sweetest dogs out there. I miss you Roxy, I hope you get all the belly and ear rubs where ever you are.
I'm so glad you're also educated others about their health issues because of the breeding we've done to them. They are the cutest most derpiest doggos and deserve the best. đ
That bulldog might be a year old, but he looks like he's a very grumpy senior of about 70.
That's the breeding defects for you.
@@matthiasmartin4355 so sad:(
These dogs were a nightmare to board when I workout at a vet clinic. 2 minutes outside in the summer heat to potty and they were gasping for half an hour. Not to mention the stinky folds :/ always did my best to make the English bulldogs comfortable
I've got the best bulldog story. My buddy had a bulldog, and I stayed the night at his place for New Year's Eve. Sleeping on the futon that night, his bulldog decides to jump up on the part with no legs under it, catapulting me over the top, straight onto the floor.
What do you weigh? You must be 20 lbs.
Ahhhhhahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaa
Iâve got a British bulldog (2 years old) and sheâs called Winnie she is so protective over me whenever Iâm out with my mates
He is beyond adorableâĄ
My grandfather had an English Bulldog, she passed away just a month or so after he had.
I miss them both
Thank you so much for your videos. I suffer from clinical depression and anxiety and watching your videos always puts the biggest smile on my face â€ïžđ¶
I had an english bulldog who we just recently put down and she was the kindest dog imaginable. She was a stray and most likely mixed with something because she was suprisingly healthy with no apparent breathing troubles (her face was a bit longer than most). She lived until she was 14 years old somehow Lol
These Dog shows have killed so many majestic breeds.
Churro is a real gentleman! This breed overheats very easily so be extra careful during hot (or even warm) weather with their exercise. That plus their difficulty in breathing can have deadly consequences. ButâŠwhat a sweetie! â€ïž
He looks like a friendly cartoon ham.
LOVE
My English bulldog passed away almost 3 years ago. I still cry when I think of her (like right now). I haven't had a dog since her because I can't see myself with any other breed after my Georgia-Bear. I unfortunately haven't had thr money to get another bulldog due to emergency after emergency after emergency. Its left a huge hole in my heart and haven't felt complete since her.
Hope you feel better I had a bull dog that passed to health issues isnât a great feeling
Churro during washing: *rubber duck meets a deflating balloon*
Churro during brushing: *gleeful snorting*
> Be tough strong stubborn breed
> Be named churro
Churro wearing the happy hoodie looks like a prize fighter training in the boxing ring. :)
Bulldog and pug owners love the snoring. Itâs soothing.
I met bulldog at my friends house. Such a great doggo. Smelly, farts a lot, drools over your hands and his toys when you play with him. But such a charmer, friendly and kind.
My brother-in-law had one, she was sweet. Short lived though, sadly. One time his wife came home and the pup was excited to go greet her. Right there and there, the pup dropped dead in the midst of the excitement. It was a heart attack. Scarlet didn't deserve that. Just be mindful of health concerns if anyone adopts one.
I know how it is to have a chronical sick dog. He had two heavy heart attacks when he was a puppy (luckily, he survived both of them), had spine issues, lung issues and issues with his paw. It takes a lot of money and patience, but when he's leaning against you and loves you, all money is worth it. He lived a happy life of 8 and a half years, and I'm proud of that because the vet said that this dog wouldn't even get to the age of 1 year. All money was worth it. Every. Single. Cent.
OMG
I personally donât have an English but my brothers best friend does whoâs also our neighbor. He has two and they are the sweetest things, the most aggressive thing theyâve done was accidentally scratch me while trying to get up on my lap. They are adorable and I was so saddened to hear that his elder bulldog died last summer because his little sister forgot to open the door for him and he died from a heat stroke. I love them so much, theyâre the sweetest
Sweet Baby! †I love my bulldog Rubble. Her snoring soothes me beyond belief. When she is snoring I know we are safe. She is 10 years old and healthy. We are doing our best for her. God put dogs here so we can have a best friend. †Love from Texas
He loves the equigroomer so much, that he brought his own lipstick to the party. lmao
Those animal cruelty laws aint working properly when you can make animals suffer for 13 years.
But breeding standards! Dog shows! CUTENESS THAT SACRIFICES HEALTH!
I never liked smooshed face dogs as a kid. Thought they were ugly. Now as an adult I donât like them because theyâre the product of pure inhumanity. And I will never own a dog with a smashed in muzzle. We had a boxer, but he had a longer muzzle and could actually breathe. Amazing. And I wasnât even really aware that boxers did have that same issue with being bred for having a flattened face until I started seeing them as I would walk my boxer and I was like damnâŠmy boy is WAY cuter AND way healthier.
My cute fattie Horacio is turning 10 this year, and everything you said about the breed is so true! They really are great companions but sadly the health problems are terrible sometimes, Horacio nowadays barely does anything other that sleep but until he was five he was such a playful dog đ„° Also Iâm so glad you bathed him on the floor, we once took Horacio to a groomer and apparently they bathed him in a high place and made him get down by himself, and apparently that did hurt him a lot đ
They're so sweet â€ïž My uncle has one, last time he visited I had suddenly gotten sick with a fever and the whole shabang. His dog didn't know me but he still crawled under my blankets and cuddled and played with me the whole time.
Can attest to their loud snoring, only my best friends Bulldog was able to best me in both volume and duration . One heck of a pup though!
Lol
Love your videos and the way you describe each dog.
My mom got a bulldog when I was about 9. She had been waiting her whole life, and following along the momma's owners for months, only for him to end up having very bad grand mal seizures starting early on. She was devastated, and seeing them definitely traumatized me. Despite it he made it to about 6 before he was just clearly too miserable to continue, and my mom was once again devastated as she had to have him put down. We buried him under a rosebush in our backyard and it's gotten huge over the years. She never got over it.
it's alway sad ... this is why it's better to choose a healthier dog over the breed .. my dog is a boxer labrador sheperd (possibly other things) never had any problems and she is 8 now. mixing dogs make them less prone to genetics issuse since pure bred dog are all closely related and just the same as humans dogs breeding with their relatives is just as bad and will produce weak genetics. :(
Thank you so much for this video, my English Bulldog Jack and I fully agree. He is a very healthy boy, having long legs and a longer snout even though he is pure breed, he is very lean and still weighs in at 100 pound - all muscels and love for his family.
I had 2 Olde English Bulldogs and a Olde English Bull doggie. They are absolutely great dogs. I miss mine terribly. And Churro is so handsomeâ€ïž
olde are so better they get less issues !! thank you for choosing healthier dogs !
I've got a bulldog and yes, the farting is excessive but only to the loud snoring. I swear it sometimes sounds like someone is sharpening a chainsaw when she sleeps!
Fun fact, in England we call them British Bulldogs. We actually have the English Bull Terrier, as in Bullseye from Oliver.
Since moving out and getting my own place a couple decades ago, Iâve had a Pug (was guesstimated to be 2.5-5 yo when I got him), that lived with me for 10 years, and an English (who had just had her third birthday before I got her), and was part of the family for six years. While Leon (the Pug) was an excellent companion, he was definitely bonded to me, even as our family grew. Lyla (The English) was probably the sweetest, kindest dog that I have ever shared life with. Stubborn is putting things lightly, especially when they are comfortable in the most awkward spots. But it was all worth it when Lyla and the person she was cuddling with were both mutually cozy! âDog glitterâ, and vacuuming multiple times a week is worth it! The health issues are intimidating, but a beauty regimen (brushing, nails, ears, nose, paw pads, folds, and tail pockets) and regular checkups will help avoid issues from going too far out of hand!
I definitely have a feeling that another English may be what my family needs when the time is here to bring another dog into our home!!
Anyone who pays to have these contribute to the problem
When you said have you ever seen a different breed riding a skateboard ,I laughed because my neighbor had a dog that could ride a skateboard... it was a English bulldog.
I love your videos. They are so adorable and wholesome. Thank you!
I would absolutely love to fall asleep next to a sleeping bulldog snoring. It would be so comforting and relaxing. I'm sure I'd be asleep too, in no time. â€ïž
I'm British & I appreciate this handsome dog very much. Although, I am happy to hear that breeders are now actively working on reversing some of the damage done to the breed x
Every bulldog I met has been nothing but loving. They thrive on attention and if they decided you are the one to give it to them nothing will stop them.
He was once a fresh faced youth without a wrinkle, but years of crushing responsibilities have given him the face he has today.
This is my favorite episode....and favorite breed. I have had two Bulldogs in my life...and it is tragic that they have been bred this way...but their personalities are just irresistible.
I love seeing the different breeds that you grow. They are gorgeous dogs
I love the air blowing sequences. Ears (and jowls) flapping in the Breeze!
The sounds that come out of bulldogs always surprize me. You don't expect squeeling and screaming from that chonky face
That's kind of what happens when you can't breathe properly due to horrific genetic deformities đ€·đŸââïž
@@nobodyyouknow7226 Yeah I know, so happy they are breeding them to have less problems.
What a cute munchkin! Adorable!
Bulldogs are adorable. And Churro is such a good boy.
The Kennel Club, aesthetics over ethics
So many congenital problems, their life expectancy has been massively over-estimated. Accurately they live an average of 7 years.
I have some intense workplace PTSD from working in a terrible pet grooming center. Watching your videos is so helpful. You're so sweet with the dogs and your voice is very calming. Thank you for the work you do.
Very talkative fur bambinos đ¶đŸ
I hope he lives a long healthy life!
We can only hope
I really cant find them adorable. They look like they are struggeling all the time.
I think once you get to know my bulldog even though he (yes) looks like he is struggling, his whole personality is adorable. Heâs just a sweet angel that wants to be snuggled. Fortunately he is 12! But yes he has breathing problems :(
Sweet Churro, definitely a joy!
I saw a program once and there's a preserved English Bulldog from the early 1900s. The difference is wild!
Shout out to Reuben the Bulldog CZcams channel. He's all of this and more.
I wish people would breed longer snouts into them
Very blessed to own two of these angels
The WRINKLES aaaaa i love you Churro!!
You got it right. Gentle and kind and the best cuddles ever. Bullies are the best! â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
Vanessa: Did you just say "Doggio Arfmani"? That was FREAKING HILARIOUS! You made my week! And the "excessive farting" bit made my night!
EDIT: Still losing it over the "chronic farting" bit. Yes; bulldogs love nothing more than to rip ass.
I feel like the American Kennel Club is like the scientist Frankenstein, messing with creatures that are better left as they are.
Even during a shower, the Bulldog just wanted to give lovin'... and did not want to be alone.
Growing up my grandmother called them bull-darlins. They were her favorite dog and we always had at least one along with boxers and basset hounds.
I am a huge fan of dogs in general but I just canât imagine why people would wanna have this breed as their dog.
Right! I seriously can't see what people find so cute about them, and that's even before considering the health issues...
same with some breeds of cat, who decided somewhere that smooshed faces were a good thing? I have a family member who got a french bulldog. He's a sweetheart but had to have surgery to correct his airway pretty much right away. The breeder told them not to do it because he wouldn't make his cute snuffling sounds anymore... you know... because he could breathe. I hate people.
Because they're amazing?! Like she said in the video, they have personalities unlike any other dogs.
I've had 5 bulldogs and only 1 had breathing problems. She passed at 6. I also lost one at 6 from cancer. My current bulldogs are 7 and 9.
There are a ton of breeders that are making them unhealthy... but there are a lot of them with little or no health problems also. They are beautiful dogs with amazing unique personalities and I will continue to rescue them and have them in my family.
Iâve had them for 10 years
@@tjanderson6561 6 is absolutely no age for a dog to die at. Their lifespan is appalling
I love that I found youre page. Iâve been learning how to groom hair cut dogs finally after 7 years and I absolutely love it. Doodles are my favorite so far since Iâm so tall đ€Ł
What a beautiful pupper!! I absolutely want to snuggle and squish his little faceđđ
Poor animal. Those super narrow nostrils made me feel so bad for him. So much suffering, just because of the look.
Omg shut up
@@cjr1881 theyâre not wrong
Thankfully, longer muzzles for pugs and bulldogs are start to becomr more popular these days. I don't know why anyone would buy a dog that can't breath properly..
Let's not forget that the English bulldog Also can't clean itself after a poop. So the owner need to wipe the dogs butt. Lol.
I always look forward to watching your videos. Makes my day đ I could honestly watch them for hours!
His spongy face đ„° lol đđđđđđ
Wow Dogio Arfmani cologne? Bulldogs get the bougie treatment around here!! đ
I think she said Doggio ARFMANI.
@@terrigaines1812 omg you're right that's even better đ
I love your channel, you're so lovely and caring! I work in Pediatrics, and I de-stress by watching your videos. I love dogs but cannot have one - this is the next best thing . Thank you so much.
OMG. I love Churro so much! đđ„°
Your wide range of information on dog breeds that you share is amazing.
I've dogsit my brother's Eng bulldog and the SNORING, I couldn't sleep seriously đ€Ł.
But he's so cute and lovely, I've never seen him be aggressive, he just loves to play.
He has really sensitive skin and trouble breathing so he's had to have surgery in the past sadly, but all that aside gosh he's a big ball of cute.
I LOVE bulldogs! They have such a sweet personality and they are honestly pretty cute dogs. If it wasn't for the fact that I hate how many serious health problems they have I would probably consider them my Dream Dog! I met my first bulldog when my grandmother bought one named Lily and I just fell in love. Lily was very lazy but she'd follow me around and want to lay in my lap as I read or played video games, but she'd also chase after me if I went to run outside (note, I was like...10-ish when this was). I was her favourite person from first sight and I don't know if I will ever capture that feeling of love for a dog again (I had it a few years ago for my cat who was a stray who climbed in my open window and made himself at home but he passed away several months later after a very sad event I am not quite over). But despite how actually BAD my relationship with that grandmother was, I highkey wish I had spent more time there so I could have played with Lily.
Oh my goodness. I've owned two dogs as an adult. My first was an EB I named Bobby. He was so sweet and toddler like. He had to be by my or on me (his snout on my feet) while I worked or watched TV. He liked feet. My mom would wear socks when she visited because he like to suck on her feet. (He had a blanket he suckled, LOL). When you say 'furfetti' I laughed. We are still finding 'Bobby' in amongst our seasonal things. It took me almost six years before I could entertain another dog. My GSD, Maica. Sadly I lost her to a stroke at 3 years old right before last Christmas. That was a hard candy Christmas. I love these videos! They help fill the blank. Thank you!
You're so amazing. I love all of the cute Grinch trimmings! â€ïž
