With its unmistakable rolling gait, wrinkled face, and stocky “loaf-like” body, the English Bulldog is one of the most iconic breeds in the world. But behind the sour-faced expression and comical snorts lies a story of transformation, resilience, and contradiction. Once bred for the brutal sport of bull-baiting, the Bulldog has travelled an extraordinary path to become a gentle, affectionate, and deeply loyal family companion. This remarkable journey from fighter to friend reveals much about the power of selective breeding, the responsibilities of ownership, and the enduring appeal of one of the canine kingdom’s most recognisable figures.
In The Lovable Loaf: 10 Essential Facts About the English Bulldog, Elira Wren uncovers the truths every admirer and prospective owner should know. From their dark history in medieval England to their modern role as cuddly companions and national symbols, this book explores the Bulldog in all its complexity. You will learn why their temperament is so beloved, why their health needs demand extra vigilance, and why their stubborn yet affectionate personalities make them endlessly endearing.
Inside, you’ll discover:
- From Brutal Beginnings: How bull-baiting forged the Bulldog’s unique body and fearless reputation.
- The Great Transformation: How breeders reshaped the Bulldog into a companion after blood sports were banned.
- The Gentle Giant’s Soul: Understanding the breed’s famously affectionate yet strong-willed temperament.
