Breed standards for showing are loser for Bulldogs than other breeds, the only disqualifying aspect for the English Bulldog is a liver coloured nose and complete black Bulldogs are not preferred.

Although they have been known to possess aggressive tendencies breeders have worked hard over the years to work this from them, resulting in Bulldogs holding a generally good temperament. Bulldogs are so devoted to their owners that venturing outside the safety of their back garden is not uncommon. Bulldogs get along great with children and other animals very well and make a great addition to any family home. They do not posses a great deal of energy so apartment living is perfect for them, however as puppies they can be very destructive.
