American Bulldog

Written about this breed a lot, and of course mostly all the articles devoted to the breed standard . I told you I will try to present information about the breed on the basis of their observations of your dog, as well as for other bulldogs .

American Bulldog - was not large, medium-sized , but still, in my opinion, males can be attributed to large dogs . Preamble should be athletically built, with great agility and strength. This self-assured dog , always " on guard " bdit tranquility and property owners . Bulldogs usually never get involved in the first fight , but if they touch , we always give confidence back. Gives the impression of an intelligent and obedient dog.
Males are much larger females , more powerful and stocky . Females also more feminine , elegant , have a docile nature , more obedient and faithful.
The standard says, and I can not agree that the Bulldogs welcome some distrust of the people , and allowed natural desire superiority over other individuals of the same sex. This means that females can fight with females , males with males , but I think it is in every breed.

American Bulldog should not be fearful or timid , or show aggression towards people or dogs. These dogs are very attached to their owners , and love them with a good education despite his stubbornness can perfectly obey . American Bulldog undeniably can become a companion for almost every person , well, in my opinion, except for old people and young children. He may be a working dog , and an assistant on the hunt , and pet. Bulldogs quite hardy , able to withstand tremendous physical exertion, but only after three years. "Load " bulldog fiz.nagruzki worth no earlier than one year of age . Otherwise you might injure immature ligaments and bones of the younger Bulldog .
A few words about the size of a bulldog . Personally, I have enough of a medium-sized female ( average size, weight 40 kg), but can be seen at shows different parameters of these dogs. Moreover, different judges like different dogs, one thin and " inflated ", another thick carcasses that barely run . Ideally dogs should be the size of 57 to 70 cm at the withers and weighing 33 to 70 kg. Females should be increasing from 50 to 65 cm, while weight can range from 28 to 50 kg.
I can not mention that bulldog is very comfortable to hold in a city apartment . Sheds no more than 1 time per year, grooming simple enough , it is necessary only once a week to comb the dog special rubber mitt. In moulting comb need more - 2-3 times a week . Wash your dog needs as necessary , wool they do not stink , such as some long-haired dogs .
With regard to behavior on the street. First, I'm talking about adult dogs that have undergone OKD , which are fully socialized in urban environments. This bulldog is unlikely you will create any problems while walking . Parenting this dog - a pledge peaceful walks . Even if the past will be poured into a barking dachshund , bulldog never will rush to sort things out with such a small dog. To the children that their that to strangers , these dogs are very well aware that they face a child .
So in conclusion, I want to say " fans " outpatient . Do not confuse this breed similar but very different Amstaff and Pit Bull Terrier . Yes, these dogs are easy to like , many " geeks " called them all " fighters" , but it's just words . American Bulldog is not a fighting dog , and never such was not .
