They have some major health issues too. My friend had one and it died at 5 years old. Just search online and make sure you know what you're getting into because bulldogs are not cheap and add to that the health expenses and you could be in for a very costly pet.
Every English bulldog I have ever seen has been an incredibly playful, happy, and friendly dog. I would love to own one. But they're expensive as hell.
