Before first-time owners bring home British Bulldog puppies, they need to understand the relevant knowledge and raising methods of British Bulldogs to avoid minor accidents when bringing them home.

For the first 4 months, eat 4 meals a day, dilute the dog food 1:1 with warm water, and add some yogurt (helping digestion) and soft cheese (helping bone growth).

During the period of 4-6 months, the Bulldog’s diet can be changed to 3 meals a day; after 6 months, it can be reduced to 2 meals a day. But most owners still feed diluted meals 3-4 times a day!

Before the Bulldog is 6 months old, try not to restrict its food intake. If the Bulldog's nutrition cannot keep up, their physical development will be limited.

Never feed any food containing soy. Because cows are different from ordinary dogs, the digestive system of English bulldogs is very fragile, and they may burp or vomit after eating compressed dog food.

Have the correct concept of anti-mosquito and inject your bulldog with heartworm vaccine.

Be sure to bring water with you when you go out. Its muzzle is relatively short and its breathing is worse than that of ordinary dogs. Be sure to let it drink water to prevent heat stroke. It is recommended not to take it outside for long walks or walks, because it cannot breathe well. If you walk it frequently, it will have difficulty breathing, its physical strength will be poor, and it will not be able to run for long. Do not let it run all the time, especially when the weather is hot. It won't be able to stand it. Take a break after running for a while, soothe it and calm it down. If you really have difficulty breathing, don't move it and let it stay where it is. If it really doesn't work and it refuses to drink water and coughs. When the coughing mouth turns purple, it's heat stroke. phenomenon, it is necessary to let it cool down as soon as possible. If necessary, take it to the doctor as soon as possible. When you are in the car, you should open all the windows to allow air to circulate. Do not close the windows, otherwise the dog will not be able to bear the heatstroke and lack of air.

Massage its neck more, or scratch the meat on its butt, because it can’t scratch its own butt. If you want to help it, it will be very happy
