“I’m so tired”

Avoid unnecessary vet bills! Do your dog’s basic health check!

People are often afraid of Bulldogs because of their typical “sourpuss” expression, but pet owners can never resist the charm of this breed. Although they might seem aggressive, Bulldogs have a generally good temperament and can be very attached to home and family that they will not go out of the yard without a companion.

Bulldogs existed since 1568 and were applied to various ancestors of modern Bulldog breeds before adorning the breed that is being recognized today. This breed needs grooming as well especially the folds or rope on their face to avoid unwanted infections.

You can dress your bulldog anyway you like, but neck straps are Bulldogs’ fashion trademark. You can also set a trademark with your own fashion cufflinks, the Silver Bulldog Cufflinks, a new pair of Bulldog cufflinks that comes with a free carrying bag. This is a great gift for all those animal enthusiasts out there with its very solid and awesome look that they can never refuse to like.

Who told you that you can’t take your pet Bulldog anywhere with you?

By wearing the Cool Pet Bulldog Bull Dog Companion Silver Tone Pewter Ring, it will definitely make you feel like your Bulldog is still right there next to you, even if you are in a place where pets are not allowed. With these finely crafted pewter ring, take your Bulldog anywhere with you, anytime you like! Just like a highly defined face of a Bulldog, this ring is highly detailed and made from the highest quality pewter inside and out. Wearing this will definitely give you the look that is as fierce as your pet Bulldog. By nature, your pet Bulldog may be too attached to you or your family that it won’t go out the yard without a companion, just like you, you may not be able to go out of the house without this pewter ring!

The English Bulldog can give Tony Hawk, professional skateboarder, a run for his money!  Other breeds perform tricks, jump through hoops, or run at great speeds but the bulldog can enjoy the excitement of the X-Games! It is not an easy feat though. Like talented athletes, a bulldog may or may not have what it takes.

Start off by placing a skateboard on a comforter as not to let it slip and call the bulldog to climb it. Wider boards are recommended for stability. Once he’s on it, let him get a feel of it and make himself comfy so calling him on it won’t be a problem.

Next, move to the grass so board movement is slow. When his front legs are up, coax him with food or a toy until he pushes with his hind legs making it move. When this is perfected, start on the pavement but stand by in case he falls. Eureka! A pro is born!

All our dogs have the ability to break our hearts. Whether you share your life with a BULLDOG or a Labrador Retriever, the bond you form with your dog can be one of the closest and most powerful you will ever experience.

If you want proof of just how extraordinary the relationsip between man and his best friend can be then you really must read a stunning new book called One Dog At A Time. It has been written by a British Marine and dog lover called Pen Farthing and tells of his time serving in the violent Helmand Province of Afghanistan.

While dodging the bullets and mortars, Sergeant Farthing witnessed the cruel and barbaric Afghan tradition of dog fighting. Rather than standing by as many would have done, he risked his life by breaking up the fighting and freeing the dogs. One of them, a big, battle-scarred mastiff he christened Nowzad after the town he was stationed in, found his way into the Marine compound where he befriended his liberator. As Farthing’’s tour of duty continued, he and Nowzad became inseparable buddies. The tough British soldier and the powerful dog formed an odd couple in the middle of the war zone. They were soon joined by other dogs who were drawn to the sanctuary the Marine compound provided. At one point, one dog pushed her litter of newborn pups through the wall of the compound so that they could be safe from the Taliban bombs and general cruelty of the Afghans towards the dog.

By the end of his time in Afghanistan, Farthing had more than a dozen dogs and puppies living in his makeshift sanctuary. As he prepared to leave, he was faced with the heartbreaking prospect of leaving them all behind.

We won’t spoil the ending of this powerful book, but suffice it to say that two of the dogs he rescued are now living with Pen Farthing in England. He has also set up a fantastic charity to rescue other abused dogs in Afghanistan. His work is truly inspirational and is winning the admiration and support of dog lovers everywhere. Part of the proceeds from the book will go towards his charity.

If you only buy and read one dog book this year, make it One Dog At A Time.

Now tell me those are faces you can resist!

“Do you know why the English Bulldog has a jutting chin and sloping face? It is so he can breathe without letting go.” Sir Winston Churchill, to a Nazi envoy, 1940

“I ask the enemy, who wants a piece of this Bulldog?” Commander Jim Pate, Franco-Prussian War, 1871

“What is crazy, loopy and un-British? Slapping a Bulldog.” Frankie Boyle, comedian

As any owner can tell you, when a series of photos are taken of a new puppy as it grows, one has this immensely proud feeling inside. Well a growing Bulldog is no exception either. One can follow its tentative footstepts (or is that pawsteps?) into adulthood. There is little that can compare to a Bulldog puppy that flourished in front of your eyes every week, every month until he or she has reached adulthood. Well, with Watson the English Bulldog, it is no exception either…..A lovely series of photos showcase his development.

Two very cute quotes about Bulldogs:

“Bulldogs are adorable, with faces like toads that have been sat on.” - Colette

“The nose of the Bulldog has been slanted backwards so that he can breathe without letting go.” – Winston Churchill
