Bulladors are medium-to-large-sized crossbreeds between the English Bulldog and the Labrador Retriever. English Bulladors are different from the American Bullador, which is a cross between an American Bulldog and a Labrador Retriever.
Bulladors have short coats with slightly longer legs than Bulldogs do. Features like their color, ears, wrinkles, and fur coat can be variable among offspring, making it difficult to predict the appearance of a Bullador puppy.
The Bullador breed has been recognized by the American Canine Hybrid Club, the Dog Registry of America, and the International Designer Canine Registry. Bullador, as a Bulldog and Labrador mix, is susceptible to health concerns like joint dysplasia, eye problems, infections, and bloating.
Bulladors have lovable personalities and are generally good with children. They are an active family dog breed and need a lot of exercise to burn excess energy.
If they do not get enough exercise they may suffer from health problems such as obesity. Their personality is as difficult to predict as their appearance, mostly because they may take on traits from either the Bulldog or the Lab.
On the whole, they are gentle, loving dogs and they are not very aggressive. When raised with care, a Bullador is a very intelligent family dog that needs a lot of mental stimulation and exercise.
