Living with a Bulldog: What to Expect
The day-to-day reality of sharing your home with this medium breed for the next 8-10 yrs - routine, grooming, money and temperament.
โก Daily routine
Plan for 30-45 minutes of walking a day. The Bulldog enjoys a steady routine: a morning walk, an evening loop and calm indoor time in between.

Grooming is easy: a quick brush once a week and the occasional bath. Nails every few weeks, and that's about it.
Shedding is minimal - your black clothes are mostly safe.
๐ฐ First-year Bulldog budget
Plan on $1,500-$4,000 upfront for the puppy, then roughly $1,200-$3,000 every year for food, vet care, grooming and supplies. Year one usually adds one-off costs on top: crate, leash, training classes, spay/neuter.
