Question
Is breeding bulldogs more expensive than breeding other dogs due to the necessity of a cesarean section?

Answer
That just once of the major expenses involved. If you don't know how to do an AI breeding yourself, that has to be done by a vet. If your female isn't up to caring for puppies after delivery, you have to hand feed every 2 hours around the clock, sometimes for days, weeks. There's always a huge risk that the female might die during delivery as well. There's no inexpensive way to raise Bulldogs and do it right.
