did i read wrong? because if this is not the case, i'm there when it is time for my next dog...
Yeah I wish bulldogs had longer life spans. The vet bills in my case started out a little steep but he hasn't needed to go for awhile. The cherry eye surgery was about $375. My bulldog requires a pretty good amount of cleaning (in the wrinkles, tail, etc. or they can become infected quickly.)
