History
The Renascence Bulldog was developed in 1990s with the goal of re-creating the legendary working British Bulldogs breed of the 1800’s. To achieve this goal, several breeds were used in the process. Specifically it were American Bulldogs, Bullmastiffs, English Bulldogs, Hermes Bulldogs and Old Family Red Nosed Pitbulls.
The creator of the breed also created a breed standard and formed Renascence Bulldogs Kennel Club. So all the pure Renascence Bulldogs have to be bred accordingly to this consistent breed standard and the breeding laws are quite strict.
The Renascence Bulldogge remains very rare at the moment and you can find it almost exclusively in North America, but its popularity is slowly growing.
Appearance
On the first sight you can see that this is strong and muscular dog breed. They have big head with some wrinkles, very strong jaws, muscular neck, short and broad muzzle and large tusks.
The average weight should be between 60-90 lbs, which is 27-40 kg and height between 17-22 inch, which is 43-56 cm.
The Renascence Buldogge has a short, smooth and flat coat, which comes in variety of colors from white to fawn to black, with or without brindling and tan or white markings.
Temperament
The Renascence Bulldogge has the typical character of a real Bulldog. This means, that it is very friendly, playful and affectionate towards its own people and people he knows, but reserved and watchful around strangers. But they should never be agressive without a real reason.
These dogs are naturally protective and territorial, which is a reason why they make perfect adepts for property protection or as personal guardians. Not only they have fearless temperament for this purpose, they are also very muscular and agile. This is also a reason, why proper early socialization and training is a must with this dog.
On the other hand, when they are at home, they are absolutely loving. They are playful, docile and quite gentle. They can make good playful partners for kids, but of course, you should never leave any dog breed with a very young child unsupervised. They can also live with other dogs or pets, but of course, this is vastly influenced by early socialization.
It is also important to mention, that this is not a coach potatoe. The Renascence Bulldogge is powerful and active dog that enjoys active lifestyle. Daily longer walks, hikes, vigorous playtime or fun training sessions are essential to keep this breed happy and heatlhy.
Health and grooming
The Renascence Bulldog can still suffer from similar health issues as other Bulldog breeds, such as some skin problems, heat stroke or bloating, but it is important to say that this tends to be much healthier breed in comparison to other Bulldogs, especially in comparison with the English Bulldog. The average lifespan is somewhere around 13 years.
Thanks to the short and smooth coat, it is not hard to maintain the Renascence Bulldogs coat in top condition. Just brush it from time to time to minimize the shedding and it should be enough. You should take proper care about the dogs wrinkles and wipe them, so they are dry and clean to prevent infections. Just like with all dogs you should regularly check the dogs ears, eyes and nails and clean them or clip them if needed.
