I live in the Bay Area, CA. I want a Bulldog; it's difficult to find one. Where can I find an affordable one?

I would prefer a full breed English Bulldog that is affordable.

Try Petfinder. They often have pure bred puppies and dogs. All you have to do is put in what kind of dog and your zip code and it will tell you if there are any available.

try www.petfinder.com
but mutts or mixes are best because they dont have as many behavioral or physical problems.

you should look at the animal pounds or animal shelters around you. they have very cute dogs of all breeds. and they are affordable. if you find a bulldog, then you should buy it there. there just waiting for a loving owner or family!

Go to www.akc.org and contact the National breed rescue. They'll put you in touch with the rescue group closest to you. You may have to wait since its not a common breed, but its the best way to get one inexpensively.

If you are trying to buy one from a breeder than just save up and buy a quality puppy. You can either come out of pocket on the front end for the pup, or you can come out of pocket on the other end at the vet. English bulldogs can have a number of health problems so you may want to save yourself some anguish and pay a lot more to make sure you get a healthy puppy.

You can try adopting one, they are cheaper and always up to date on shots and spayed or neutered saving you alot of money. Just please be prepared for the long term costs of owning a bully, they are not a cheap breed, health issues pop up often and due to the breed sometimes different vet techniques need to be used (like if they need to be knocked out for a procedure- riskier in bulldogs than other breeds), often special (expensive usually too) foods need to be fed to help with allergies or digestive issues, and keeping them up to date on vaccinations is very important. Something like kennel cough that another dog might just deal with a cough for a week or 2 could turn into bad pneumonia in a bulldog leading to lots of antibiotics and vet visits.
