Short description
The Continental Bulldog is a very robust but active breed. They need long, extensive walks, but is not suitable for dog sports. They suffer in big heats. They are adaptable and charming companions with their own will. Because of their skin folds and the short snout they are prone to illnesses, owners should be aware of higher bills at the vet.
This information is indicative and adheres to the breed standard. Each animal is an individual and has a personal character, as well as its own needs. Thus, a breed is not a guarantee of certain behaviors, etc.
