Important behavioral traits that potential owners should understand:
Bulldogs can be possessive over food and toys. Their low center of gravity and jaw strength make this dangerous if not managed early.
They score low on biddability. If a Bulldog does not want to walk, they will simply lie down. This is not a dog for owners who expect instant obedience.
