Heritage & Purpose
Bulldog

Developed in England during the 1500s for bull-baiting sports. After blood sports were banned, selective breeding transformed them into gentle companion dogs.
Siberian Husky
Origin:
Developed by the Chukchi people of northeastern Asia for sledding and hunting in harsh Arctic conditions. These dogs were vital for survival, pulling heavy loads across vast frozen landscapes.
Special Considerations
Bulldog
Requires regular cleaning of facial wrinkles, moderate exercise in cool weather, and close monitoring of breathing issues. Cannot tolerate extreme temperatures.
Siberian Husky
Requires secure fencing to prevent escape. Heavy seasonal shedding needs regular brushing. High exercise demands must be met to prevent destructive behavior.
