In this video, I am going to talk about the lifespan of the English bulldog.
What we now know as the English bulldog has existed since the 1200’s – that’s 8
centuries! But they do tend to live a slightly shorter life on average than other dog breeds.
The English Bulldog should be expected to live 8 – 10 years on average. Some live
as long as 12 or even more. Some, unfortunately, live less than 8 years.
English bulldogs are susceptible to a variety of health problems which can reduce their
life expectancy. A careful inspection of the family history
of your bulldog should help you understand what to expect. Consider avoiding English
bulldog puppies where a history of health problems or less-than-average lifespan occurred.
Regular check-ins at the veterinarian, a healthy diet, and frequent exercise all will help
your English bulldog live a long life. At this point, you’ve learned a great deal
about the lifespan of an English bulldog. If you would like to know more about selecting
and raising an English bulldog, please check out The Art of Raising An English Bulldog
Puppy. It is available now on Amazon and coming soon on other book sellers.
