The Bulldog comes in a variety of colors and ideally has a smooth, short coat. The colors, in order of desirability, are brindle (especially red), red (like a chestnut horse), white, and fawn (often with white markings on any color, or piebald). The prime disqualifier for the breed in the show ring is a pale or liver-colored nose, although black-coated bulldogs are not preferred, and many judges will dismiss a bulldog lacking an underbite. In the US, the size of a typical mature male is about 50 pounds; that for mature females is about 40 pounds. In the United Kingdom, the breed standard is 55 pounds for a male and 50 pounds for a female, but it is not uncommon for males to be 70 pounds.
