1 yr old english bulldog

Question
Hello,

 I have a 1 yr old english bulldog we purchased from a breeder out of state. We have been a little concerned that his face has still not grown to full size and also his weight is above what a bulldog should be(75 pds). At what age should the bulldog be fully grown and is there a chance that he may not be 100% bulldog? We have akc papers on him.  

                     Thanks,

Answer
If you have pics of your dog, would you mind emailing them to me at omaibulldogs@yahoo.com? He sounds very large for an AKC dog but I don't want to pass judgement without seeing him. How tall would you say he is at the shoulder? Keep in mind, he's only a year old and hasn't finished maturing, which might add as much as another 5-10 lbs.
