What's a big dog to you?

    Hear a lot of people say a certain line may run a bit big or a bit small for their preference. So I was just wondering what everyone's take on what's big and what's small when it comes to bulldogs. Me personally I'd say females 28-45 is what I'd call normal, males 32-50. Just my opinion, just wondering what everyone else may think.

    Sincerely Yours, Cajun

    I like my males high 40's to low 50's (47 to 52) n like my females low to high 40's (42 to 47)...but the more my numbers go up the more I'm interested in smaller dogs, lol. I'd say anything over 55 I would consider big. All weights are presumed conditioned.

    Definetly agree with that, I was just wondering because of an earlier convo, this guy seemed to think a 47# male was a big dog. You hear a lot of folks say "they run a bit big for my taste", everybody has a different tatste lol!

    For me, anything 32 pounds and under is small and anything over 50 pounds is big. All of mine are in the 42 - 54 pound range here. Don't care for them to be over 50 lbs. but would love to have a little 25 - 30 lb pocket rocket lol. Never had one over 54 or under 38.

    47 conditioned would be a big dog to me. Don't think its huge but definitely on the bigger end.

    I consider a dog 50 pounds and up to be a big dog. I like my dogs 45 pounds and under.

    When it comes to bulldogs anything over 50 pounds is big. If they can work and work well, I like big dogs. Anything under around 34 pounds is small and middle ground being in high 30s to mid 40s, for me.

    I like them 30-45. IMO the bigger ones are easier to control. More to grab less wirey. Them small ones can be fun to get a grip on. LOL As far as to big anything 55 CW and over is big to me. I don't like them anything over 48lbs CW.
