English Bulldog puppies are expensive because of the time, money, and effort that is put into breeding and raising the puppie. Most breeders artificially inseminate their females. That means the male has to be taken to a vet to have sperm extracted and the female needs to have that sperm inserted into her uterus at the time of heat (ovulation). As we all know, vet costs are far from cheap but the vets are the best and most knowledgeable when it comes to breeding. Due to the size of the head and shoulders, bulldog puppies are usually born by C-section which can cost $700-$2000 depending on the vet, the number of puppies, complications, and your location. Bulldogs are prone to water babies, puppies that look like water balloons and have kidneys that do not function properly. After the C-section the mother could reject the puppies or just be a poor mother. Puppies can be slept on, crushed, or not well taken care of by their mother so breeders need to care for and watch the babies carefully.

Why do bulldogs cost so much?

The reason English Bulldogs cost so much is because they are very expensive to breed. They can't be breed naturally and they can't birth naturally either. Therefore, you have to pay to have an artificial insemination done and also pay to have a c-section done. It is also very time consuming to raise bulldog pups because you have to keep pups separated from mom for at least the first week. English Bulldogs are well known to accidentally sit on their young and smother them, so you have to keep them away from her and get up every two hours to feed them.
