The term refers to English Bulldogs exhibiting a specific recessive gene that results in a brown or “chocolate” coat color. These canines are recognized by their stout build, wrinkled face, and typically gentle demeanor, differing primarily in their coat pigmentation from traditionally colored English Bulldogs. They require the same care, feeding, and exercise considerations as other Bulldogs, despite their distinctive coloration.
The unique coloration commands attention due to its relative rarity within the breed. This scarcity often translates to a higher market value. Beyond aesthetics, owning such a dog provides a distinct experience for enthusiasts who appreciate uncommon traits in their canine companions. However, potential owners should be aware that health concerns inherent to the breed are not mitigated by coat color, and responsible breeding practices are crucial to minimize potential issues.
