Le bouledogue n'est pas une race fragile de base elle est au contraire rustique et résistante; able to play run and live like all other dogs!
It is obvious that this breed, which has become very fashionable, has aroused a sudden interest for many people, whether good or bad, : amateur breeders or pro breeders, multi breeds, individuals, dog sellers, traffickers etc...
Fashions are well known for wreaking havoc, which has largely contributed to this very mauvaise reputation!
If I had to take stock of 8 years and a half of breeding I could say that I was very lucky because I came across good lines that got off to a good start with healthy dogs; they have never had any major health concerns, certainly I had _cc781905-b1-94-94-94-5 136bad5cf58d_small ulcers, ear infections, conjunctivitis, abscess and other minor sores but never major worries or serious operations with them!

I don't am not safe from having a big problem one day with one of my dogs and never guarantee to make puppies without problem but _cc781905-5cde- 3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ proof is that a good job of selection with health tests, a healthy and comfortable lifestyle really limits the risks!
For example a free outdoor life where dogs can run and develop their rib cage and lungs from an early age make dogs that breathe much better than a dog locked in a cage or box 24 hours a day!
The phenotype and the genotype have a great importance in the selection, marrying two dogs with health concerns gives a much higher risk of having puppies with a problems.
Marier deux chiens trop court, trop petit, des narines trop pincées, des voiles du palais trop long, skin problems etc etc will accentuate these problems which will affect the puppies_cc781905-5cde-3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d!
C'est toute la difficulté du travail de sélection d' where the importance of the choice of breeding, it is not enough to marry a dog X with a dog Y but on the contrary try to find the male or the female capable of filling such a defect and above all not to breed a dog in poor health .
