Summary
About English Bulldog
The English Bulldog is a compact, muscular companion with a broad chest, wrinkled face and short coat. Calm and affectionate, it bonds closely with families, often adores children, and needs gentle, moderate exercise plus careful lifelong management of breathing, skin and joint health.
About English Setter
Elegant, medium‑large gundog with a silky belton coat and feathered tail. Gentle, devoted and people‑oriented, it suits active families who enjoy long daily walks. Sensitive to harsh handling, it responds best to kind, consistent training and regular grooming.
