3.0 out of 5 stars Review of Bulldogs For Dummies - 2007, March 15, 2007
I thought the book was just "okay." I was disapointed because it didnt seem to be specifically written about the English Bulldog breed - many comments were just general helpful hints on how to train dogs, etc with just a few known bulldog specific comments like how the breed is prone to overheat. I dont even think the writer, Susan Ewing has owned or does own an english bulldog - her credits read other breeds of dogs she has owned and english bulldog was not listed. I'd get another book or do research online. I've read several bulldog books and still found the best stuff on breeders' websites. Good luck!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Book, February 6, 2007
I liked this book. It was easy to read and I went thru it quickly. I bought several bulldog books and although this wasn't my favorite one I did like the info in it. The dummy line of books are pretty good and this one is too.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love Dummy books, April 14, 2009
By S. SPEIGHT "SP8girl" (Quartz Hill, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
and this one is no different.
I bought this prior to getting my bulldog just to make sure I knew what I was doing and what to expect. I've referred back to this book many times in the first few months of getting my Bella.
Lots of information on potty training, what toys to get, how to take care of her tear stained fur, and how to train a little. I think I've got a well-rounded bully but she's so smart it was easy on my part:) She doesn't think she's a bulldog though. When we're at the park, she wants to run with the 'long-legs' and she tries to herd them. There's nothing in the book for this:)
