Firstly, so I don’t confuse anyone, I’m talking about the Olde English Bulldogge not the English Bulldog, a breed started in the 70s to try and recreate what the breed was like in the 1700/1800s. I’ll admit, I was never a big fan of bulldog-type breeds until we got a Frenchie, and they’ve since grown on me. I hate what they’ve done to the English Bulldog over the years, as well as Frenchies. Ours suffers from the typical health issues and I was looking for a healthier breed. I’m hoping with the OEB I’ve found it. Though I’m sure they still have some health issues.
Does anyone currently own one or have any experience with them? I’ve read they’re supposed to be more athletic, but how much more athletic are they? Would I be able to easily go for walks with them weather permitting? What are the temperaments typically like? What’s their trainability usually? And how are they with strangers?
I’m not looking to get a dog for a while, I just like being prepared for when I finally make my decision.
