What is the difference between a Bulldog and an English Bulldog?
The English Bulldog is registered in the United States with the American Kennel Club as “Bulldog”. “Bulldog” is the correct term for the breed. The Olde English Bulldogge is much larger, have a longer nose,and tail than the English Bulldog. The English Bulldog is shorter in stature, have the screw tail, stub nosed and at maturity weighs around 45 – 50 lbs. We refer to them as the English Bulldog so as to help identify them more easily than the Olde English Bulldogge, American Bulldog, Bull Terriers, Bull Mastiffs, etc. See the AKC guidelines on the AKC Breed Standard Page for more detail or see Other Bulldog Breeds Page for photos.
