How do English bulldogs give birth?

Best Answers

The same way every other dog breed does and the same way that Bulldogs have since they became a breed in the Middle Ages. That is, most can whelp by contractions of the uterus moving a puppy down the birth canal until it emerges from the vulva. read more
