I have two dogs. One of them is an English Bulldog, and the other one is a pitbull. Have you ever seen an English Bulldog?

Yes.  I know that bulldogs are a national icon in Britain.

That's true. I love their squat bodies and squished up faces, but sometimes they can have breathing problems.

Do they snort and choke?  If so, it is probably sleep apnea

Sometimes, but the main issue with my bulldog is his propensity to overheat. In the hotter days of summer, he seems to struggle after even a short walk.

Is it because of their thick skin folds?  They also have the hanging skin under their neck.

Yes! We have always struggled to maintain his weight. He is doing alright now though. It's a popular breed. 39 American Universities have a bulldog as their mascot.

I know that Jack the Bulldog is the mascot for Georgetown University Athletics

That's right! Good old Jack. I worry though, that he won't make it to a ripe old age. Do you know their average lifespan?
