or you could try a rescued one too if you are open minded/enjoy saving animals

The only rescue in the State of New Jersey dedicated to English Bulldogs, HeavenSent Bulldog Rescue is a volunteer group of bulldog lovers whose mission is to re-home bulldogs who are surrendered by their owners or find themselves otherwise without homes, landing in animal shelters or wandering the streets as strays.

If you get a bulldog (and I say this in COMPLETE seriousness), then you should put at least $2000 in savings to deal with related health issues, in addition to the cost of purchase.

Bulldogs have problems with stenotic nares, over developed soft palates (both of which contribute to breathing difficulties), bad knees, bad hips, bad elbows (which may require orthopedic repair), entropian (eyelids rolled in so that the hair rubs on the surface of the eye), dry eye, and bad skin and ears.

Because of their build and difficulties breathing, they are prone to heat stress – you must be extremely cautious with exercise. If you plan to breed, females (more often than not) require a cesarean section and males usually must be collected by hand since they cannot complete the act themselves.

In the veterinary field, the joke is that bulldogs are for the very rich or the very foolish. Yes, they are cute (especially as puppies) and usually very sweet. But please, please research carefully to find out what you’re getting yourself into. Yes, some people may own a bullie and never have an issue or a problem – but that is truly the exception.

Only $2000 in savings? Yes, maybe for one surgery. I would anticipate spending a LOT more than that on vet bills for any purebred dog because everyone I know who has had purebreds has had major health problems related to their inbreeding. And why spend money on a dog when there are millions in shelters that you can get for free who need good homes? It is my personal belief that mutts are much better dogs in the long run, but I know people will continue to love purebreds regardless so I’ll shut my mouth now. But I agree with syz wholeheartedly.

If your going with a bulldog, listen to what syz has to say. Medical bills can range well above 6000 dollars depending on what your paying for, and trust me when i say that the older your bulldog gets, the more health issues uts gonna face. Sad but true

it may not be a puppy, but try to adopt from the pound. You’re saving an animals life

We have had three English Bulldogs. One made it to age 13, one to age 9, and one died of heat stroke at age 2 (someone let her out and we didn’t know so she was out too long and worked herself into a fatal frenzy). We have a million funny stories about them and their interactions with the world and wouldn’t give up a minute of the time they lived with us (well, maybe we could skip the time that Abby treed the milkman, or Chomondely caught the neighbor’s female dog under the dining table when the boss was visiting, or…).

They all had sweet personalities towards us, but they were very protective of us, to such an extent that it caused problems at times. They were all indoor dogs who wanted and needed to be with their people all the time, and yes, they had health issues, especially the one that made it to age 13. We also had to feed them separately as they are very protective of their food. They also had allergies, so they couldn’t eat regular grocery store food.

Bear in mind that bulldogs often don’t do well with small children, cats, or other dogs, and that they are award-winning snorers, droolers and farters. They are also hard-headed so training can take a bit more than average effort. In addition, their fur is quite short but they shed constantly and copiously.

Right now we have an American Bulldog (think English Bulldog on stilts)who was a rescue. She has a very similar personality but not quite as many health issues. Nonetheless we have already spent $2500 to repair a joint problem. She does also snore, drool and fart, but we love her and she loves us.

If you were down here in Texas I could point you to a responsible breeder, but if you follow the links in artemisdivine’s answer you should find some breeders in your area. Check for online reviews and also ask your vet about a specific breeder. Many puppies look cute but turn out to have big problems as they develop.

I am a big supporter of adopting rescued animals but bear in mind that the reason a dog ends up at a shelter can be important. If someone is moving or simply doesn’t want a dog any longer, that is one thing. However, many bully breeds are given up over behavioral problems, so if you go that route be prepared to work with them a lot.

Good luck!
