The British bulldog, also known as the tiger dog, has wrinkles on its face. Even if it is fat, it will have muscle lines. It is indeed a bit fierce when it is expressionless. But in fact, owners who have raised him know that Yingdou is a fool. Although there is a "bulldog" in the name, Yingdou became a watch dog after the 19th century, and its character has greatly improved, becoming a gentle and firm dog. In fact, he is just too lazy, too lazy to move or care about people. To people, he looks like a gentle dog. But Yingdou is not easy to raise. If you want to raise it, you'd better take a look at its 4 shortcomings. Are you sure you can accept it?

1. British bulldogs eat more

Raising heroes will make you feel like you are raising pigs. Ying Dou has a very big appetite, which is comparable to that of a big dog. If you raise a Teddy, you should use a small bowl at most for eating, but if you raise a Yingdou, it must use a basin to eat, otherwise it will not be full! Not only does it love to eat, but it is also very lazy! Other dogs spend most of their time thinking about playing. , or play with the owner. Yingdou spends most of the time sleeping, and sleeps after eating, and his weight immediately increased. Despite his small size, Ying Dou weighs astonishingly, weighing 40-60 kilograms. How can any owner endure such a heavy dog ​​that sometimes is too lazy to walk and still wants you to hug it?

　2. British bulldogs are prone to illness

The short nose and wrinkles of the English Bulldog will cause it to suffer from various diseases. As a short-nosed dog breed, the most intuitive feeling for owners is that it snores so loudly that it can be heard even through the door. Sometimes I am awakened by its snoring at night, and I can only count the sheep to lull myself to sleep. Yingdou is also prone to "short nasal breathing syndrome", an upper respiratory disease that can cause breathing difficulties in severe cases. After strenuous exercise or when the weather is too hot, these dogs will have difficulty breathing due to the inability of their respiratory tract to adapt, and may eventually die. In summer, beware of heatstroke. There are many wrinkles on Ying Dou's face, and some of them cause the skin to stick closely together, creating an environment suitable for the survival of bacterial parasites. Therefore, Yingdou is also particularly susceptible to skin diseases, which are difficult to treat. They always come back and may relapse as soon as the medication is stopped.

In addition, because my hair is short, I am afraid of the cold in winter! I don’t know what the use of that pile of fat on my body is!

3. British Bulldogs have a heavy body odor

As mentioned before, Ying Dou is a dog with many folds, and the gaps between the folds can easily hide dirt and bacteria. If the owner does not pay attention to cleaning, the dog's body odor will be particularly strong. If you raise a dog, the owner must bathe the dog regularly, clean the ears, squeeze the anal glands, etc., to remove the dog's body odor.

4. English Bulldogs are difficult to train

Yingdou is really too lazy! He usually sleeps when he has nothing to do. Don't expect him to look after the house. He won't even raise his eyelids when a stranger comes! He is usually very excited when he sees the snacks in your hand during training, but what the owner said Can't even hear it. Other dogs can lie down, shake hands, roll around, etc., but this silly dog ​​Ying Dou can't do any of these things. It doesn't feel like it has a low IQ, but it's just too lazy to care about you.

A small dog like Teddy will regard itself as the treasure of the family, and will ask its owner to act coquettishly if nothing happens; while a big dog like the Golden Retriever will regard itself as the guardian of the family, being firm and gentle; but a dog like Yingdou will be more like A person with an independent personality who loves to eat but is also lazy. Although Yingdou has many shortcomings, its lazy and naive character makes it a good companion dog.
