Answer
Bulldogs are great dogs.  They are good natured and non-aggressive.  But ANY dog can be provoked to bite.  Nipping may be a warning that if you don't leave me alone, I WILL bite.

Dogs also learn their behaviors.  If your dogs is learning to nip and bite as the only way to be left alone, it will be hard to break her of it.

I would instruct your son not to play rough with your bulldogs.  If she continues to nip, I would consider finding a home for her without children.

I would never have a dog in a home with children that nips or bites.
