Considerations - Care - Costs

Care

One of the reasons bulldogs are so popular, apart from their beautiful squishy faces, is their wonderful temperaments and just like kids, they all have their own unique personalities, likes, dislikes and funny traits. They are funny, sassy, loving, playful and often fearless. Most of all these beautiful creatures are very sensitive to your moods and reacting accordingly. There is nothing better than snuggling with a bulldog after a hard day, they radiate love and care, asking only for the same in return. But is a bulldog the right dog for you?

Costs

While bulldogs are much cheaper to raise than children you should be prepared for the ongoing costs associated with their continued care. Think about how much you can afford to spend on the following:

• Food
• Grooming needs
• Vet expenses, including - spaying, regular vaccinations, flea and worm treatments 
• Training
• Bedding
• Toys
• Clothing - even if you're not into dressing up your dog they should at least have a warm coat for winter walks - depending where you are located
• Council registration
• Pet insurance is a personal choice and I have a neutral view on this. As a MDBA member all my puppies come with 2 months free pet insurance from Bow Wow Meow Insurance.
