3. What is the difference between the Bulldog and the Shar-Pei?
Difference one, different character: the Bulldog is gentle, brave and very understanding, but its appearance looks fierce and combative, and it has a fairly strong sense of territory, though it is quite loyal; the Shar-Pei is also gentle in character, very fond of being close to people, and strongly independent.
Difference two, different place of origin: the Bulldog originated in England, and after breeding there are now the French Bulldog, Dutch Bulldog, American Bulldog, Chinese Bulldog and so on; the Shar-Pei originated in China and is a kind of fighting dog.
Difference three, different body size: the Bulldog has a big head, a broad flat wide nose, a very short face, and well-developed muscles on its body that are out of proportion to its body size, so the whole build looks small, and it belongs to the small body type; the Shar-Pei has well-proportioned body build, showing a square outline, and belongs to the medium body type.
Difference four, different coat: the Bulldog's coat is smooth and glossy, and most of its coat colour is white, occasionally mixed with some tawny markings or red markings; the Shar-Pei's coat is short and hard, generally around 2.5cm in length, and stands upright, with coat colours including black, red, cream and so on, though on the tail and the back of the thighs the coat colour is darker.
Difference five, different uses: the Bulldog is faithful, so besides being a pet, it can also guard and catch rats. The Shar-Pei was once a boar-hunting dog, and after training it became a fashionable companion dog.
Overall, Bulldog market prices range from expensive to cheap, so when buying, try to ask at your local market. In addition, many people foolishly cannot tell a Bulldog from a Shar-Pei, so you must pay attention when choosing. If you do not know how to tell them apart, you can distinguish them by the five little methods above, and then you will not be fooled by anyone.
