Can the bulldog be saved? - New York Times article

This was a really long article in the Sunday New York Times today.  Thought some of you might be interested in reading it.  There is also a slideshow.  It is weird how the genetic defects are unhealthy yet attractive.  I love my healthy bully though, anyway.

I hate when they....

think all bulldogs are the same......I have healthy bulldogs too.......my very first bulldog lived to be almost 13 yrs old......just went to Nationals last week and my 9 yr old took 2nd in veterens.......not saying some dogs are not unhealthy but it's just like any other breed........you have good breeders and bad ones!
