The Dutch bulldog can be silver or soft apricot with a black mask, in both cases it presents a black stripe that goes from head to tail; It can also be pure black or white which is the more scarce and expensive of all.

It measures each 30 cm to cross and weighs between 6 and 8 kg. His confident nature, docile and friendly makes the Pug an appreciated companion animal. The Pug is particularly a dog "with a sense of humor", exhibiting very human facial expressions given its bone structure. Due to its striking appearance, some people tend to think that the characteristics of the Dutch bulldog are the result of genetic manipulation or inbreeding. But, the characteristics of the Pug are similar in the last five hundred years, period in which Europeans began it importing from China.

The tail of the Dutch bulldog It has a characteristic spiral or letter "Q" shape. This variation in the way of the tail is due to the vertebrae in this portion of the column are actually hemivertebra. In some few puppies, This alteration of the shape can be extended to the rest of the column and the animal presents spina bifida.. The spine of the animal must feel before purchasing to avoid choosing a sick puppy. An animal that suffers from this malformation should not be reproduced in order to not pass this problem to their offspring.

Given the shape of the skull, the eyes of the Dutch bulldog have a bouncy and lively appearance.

The Dutch bulldog although it is a short-haired dog, tends to constantly pelechar, so his tenure is not recommended for persons allergic or asthmatic. They have a characteristic pungent odor that may bother some people, but that decreases a bath every couple of weeks.

The biggest health problem presented by the Dutch bulldog is one that is completely preventable and treatable, and that depends entirely of the OWNER. This disease is the OBESITY. A Carlin receiving proper care can live more than fourteen years, Although on average they tend to live around ten.

One 1% of puppies can develop a degenerative neurological disease called Pug Encephalitis (or tap for its acronym in English). This disease is lethal and has no known cure. For this reason dogs must not be reproduced within the two years, in order to not transmit the gene to their offspring. Last year of life is very unlikely to reach Carlin present this disease.

There is a tendency to believe that Dutch bulldog They are "sick" animals, which is very far from reality. A healthy Carlin will behave aggressively and playful, and even a bit hyperactive in its first years of life. Its solid structure makes they tolerate well the game with children and adults, and its particularly hard head can cause bumps and falls in young children and older adults.

The Dutch bulldog It's a small animal, and although strong, requires very little food. But, being a pet, owners tend to supercharge them and share their food with them. This must not be. The Carlin may well eat a cup of dry food in the morning and a cup at night, and you won't go hungry or require any extra supplements.

One Dutch bulldog obese is not a Dutch bulldog ยซbelloยป, on the contrary, It is an animal that sick because you can not breathe well, be it exhausted easily and will begin to suffer from problems in the spine and joints. A Carlin is fed healthily, on the other hand, a robust animal, with his sharp and clearly visible muscles under the skin. A healthy Carlin can run as fast as any other dog I, and you can skip two or three times its own height. Although the animal enjoys eating extra foods and receiving "treats" occasionally, is task of the owner to ensure that the quantity and quality of food that consumes is adequate.
