Wrinkly dogs are by far the cutest, imo.

Oils and dirt collect in the folds. The little guy in the picture will grow into his skin but the wrinkles in his face will stay and those will need to be cleaned or else it starts to stink.

I used to work at a vet's office, and one day we had some sort of wrinkle-dog (shar pei maybe?) in there....it stunk to high heaven and had MAGGOTS in the folds of its skin. EW EW EW NOPE NOPE.

Was the dog okay? I'm curious if this dog was a stray or if it had owners, which would make me question how the owners could let it get that bad.

[–]brodyqat 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It had owners. They were just clueless people and I have no idea how they let it get that bad. You seriously couldn't be in the same room with it, we had to open up all the windows in the animal hospital and were still gagging. Probably just some backyard dog they mostly ignored.

This is why people should spend a lot of time reading about the health of any breed before they buy one so they know the risks and what special treatment they need.

Ya, this is pretty prevalent in Bulldogs because of all the moisture that happens around their face. Couple this with the fact that they need water available 24/7, and it's a recipe for bad face smell. Though this is manageable with routine baths and daily facial cleaning (usually baby wipes around the aggravated areas do the trick).

They start out cute, but then they turn in to burping, farting, snore-while-awake, snot filled drool machines... Did I mention the farting?

[–]teeheeheartsandjunk 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yes. With the farting and the burping. So gross. I have two. They started out sleeping in my room, but quickly were relocated upon reaching adulthood. Awesome personalities though :]

[–]Tauz_g 3 points4 points ago

Very loving dogs, no doubt about it. I live with one. He snores in the next room and drives me nuts.

In other words. Fucking awesome.

Besides if you get them from a good breeder, they don't snort that much, and farting has to do with what you feed them.

[–]Tauz_g 1 point2 points ago

He eats special dog food, for dietary purposes I guess (it hasn't helped his figure one bit in my opinion). Evidently it gives him the Farts. He also has to be monitored when fed, he eats so fast he almost died once. Step mom had to pull a big ball of food out of his throat after he stiffened up and keeled over.

I have to say that my bulldog certainly does snore. But no burping, drooling, and very little farting in three years with her.

[–]Tauz_g 2 points3 points ago

Well that's because she's a lady.

Has anyone here ever played a game called British Bulldog? I remember playing it at a beach during camp. One persons starts in the middle while everyone else runs across the playing field in waves. The person in the center has to grab someone and raise off them off the ground counting "1-2-3-British Bulldog!" Then the captured person remains in the center for the rest of the game also grabbing people. This keeps going as more and more people are grabbed and raised off the ground and kept in the center. The last person to get caught is the winner and starts the next game in the center. Good times.

edit TL;DR Ever play this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_bulldogs_(game)

Only some times. Other times reddit is temperamental and goes on rants against all purebred dogs. You have been warned.

[–]chaunceyvonfontleroy 2 points3 points ago

Look, bulldogs are fucking adorable. That's a given. They've been bred for that. Unfortunately, what we find adorable causes all sorts of health problems for the dog.

I have a friend who has a puppy like this. It has such bad breathing problems that it had to get plastic surgery. Now it's really scary to look at, it looks human D:

That puppy sure does look cute, but its tail looks an awful lot like a poop that didn't fall off.

They're fat. Also wrinkly, but still fat. Sure, they're (ugly and) cutee, but there is no way you can say they're not fat. If they were any rounder you could cover them in glue and play katamari damacy with them.

This is the truth /aww/ doesn't want to hear. 70% chance of hip dysplasia and 20% chance of premature cardiac arrest are just the tip.

[–]Reddithan -1 points0 points ago

That's due to irresponsible breeders. In norway, at least, the breed standard is different than many other countries. HP isn't more common than others breeds, wrinckle over the nose is smaller, nostrils are bigger, they give birth naturally, healthy hearts and healthy bodies. Many people still want to get the cute dogs a little cheaper and import them from eastern europe. Those bulldogs are often unhealthy. Be responsible and research the breeders.
