British Bulldog is another name for the English bull dog. Canis familiaris. 13th Century English breed from the Mastiff for sport bull-baiting.
The Bulldog also known as the English Bulldog or British Bulldog, is a medium sized dog breed. It is a muscular, hefty dog with a wrinkled face and a distinctive pushed-in nose.
English Bulldog or British Bulldog have characteristically wide heads and shoulders along with a pronounced mandibular prognathism.
The British Bulldog’s thick body is matched by a broad head with a short, pug muzzle ending with a wide, black nose.
The wide, up-turned lower jaw projects noticeably in front of the upper jaw. The floppy flaps of skin that hang past the lower jaw are called “flews” or “chops.”
The head is the most distinctive feature of the British Bulldog. The breed standard dictates that it must be in perfect proportion to the body and above all it must never be too light.
The greatest value is to be placed on the muzzle being of correct form and in absolute proportion to the skull. The length of the muzzle to the whole of the head should be a ratio of 1:3.
Folds are always present from the root of the nose running downwards on both sides of the muzzle, and the tip of the nose should lie somewhat higher than the root of the muzzle.
In addition, a British Bulldog should be slightly prognathous, i.e., the lower jaw should protrude beyond the upper jaw and bend slightly upwards in what is commonly called an underbite or “undershot bite”.
Boxers were originally a docked and cropped breed, and this is still done in some countries, but due to pressure from veterinary associations, animal rights groups, and the general public, both cropping of the ears and docking of the tail have been prohibited in many countries around the world, and is not recognized by the breed standard laid down by The Kennel Club of the UK. The American Kennel club still permits cropped ears.
A line of naturally short-tailed (bobtail) Boxers was developed in the United Kingdom in anticipation of a tail-docking ban there; after several generations of controlled breeding, these dogs were accepted in the Kennel Club (UK) registry in 1998, and today representatives of the bobtail line can be found in many countries.
