Overview:

The Olde English Bulldogge is a relatively modern breed, developed in the 1970s by David Leavitt with the aim of recreating the look of the 18th-century Bulldog while eliminating many of the health issues prevalent in the modern English Bulldog. These handsome dogs possess a sturdy, muscular build, a broad head, and a distinctive underbite, often coming in a variety of striking colors. Despite their formidable appearance, their temperament is remarkably gentle and affectionate, making them excellent companions. They are known for being loyal, brave, and good-natured, generally getting along well with children and other pets. While they enjoy a good walk, their moderate exercise needs can be met with daily activity, making them potentially suitable for apartment living if adequately exercised. Prospective owners should be aware of potential health concerns common to bully breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, and breathing issues, though responsible breeding aims to minimize these. With proper care and training, the Olde English Bulldogge is a fantastic addition to many families.
