What do England, the U.S. Marines, Yale University, University of Georgia, and dozens of other schools all have in common?
The dog they have all chosen to represent their tough, tenacious characters. That dog? Why, it's the Bulldog, of course!
Sometimes called the English Bulldog or the British Bulldog, the breed originated in England and has a bloody past.
It descended from fighting mastiffs that were brought to the British Isles by the Romans and was used in a bloody sport called bullbaiting.
Today, however, the Bulldog only slightly resembles his ancestors in appearance. And all of the ferociousness that he exhibited in the bullbaiting pens? Gone for good.
Despite his still ferocious appearance, you'd be hard-pressed to find a dog with a sweeter, more loving disposition. They are friendly, social, calm, balanced, compassionate, stubborn, proud and persevering.
If you are considering to own an English Bulldog, or you’ve just become a new English Bulldog owner, there are some realities you do need to fully accept.
Check out the twelve realities new English Bulldog owners must accept on the next page!…and if you already are an English Bulldog owner, see if you can relate!

Bonsoir , se sera un grand plaisir pour moi de vous avoir comme ami sur Facebook. Comme vous le savez l’internet de nos jours est un moyen très efficace de communication avec le monde extérieur. Si aujourd’hui mon message de correspondance vous est adressé, c’est parce que je me suis permis de faire un tour sur votre profile qui a surtout retenu mon attention. Alors dans le respect j’aimerais pouvoir échanger d’idées, dialoguer. Donc si vous ne voyez aucun dérangement en cela, veuillez me faire une demande ou permettez moi de vous en faire un.

First of all, you may think that you are the owner and the king, but in reality I am the owner and king. I adore you but I am still the king. Secondly, the king loves to play and sleep. Do not deprive me of these essential things. Thirdly, I am totally wacky. If you can’t get with the agenda than I’d rather not have you as my subject. Fourthly, can you cuddle with the best of them? Five, don’t dare leave me at home when you go gallivanting about. Six, feed me first. Seven, su casa es mi cases including your bed! Eight, don’t every yell at me, I am very sensitive. Nine, your baby is my baby too. Ten, please do not invade my space when I am napping. Eleven, no cats! Twelve, I do adore you.
