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!

cute-english-bulldogs.jpgSometimes 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.

    Meh. Here is my list.
    1. Farts are an every day evil, so buy candles,spray, or live with the smell.
    2. Bulldogs can be expensive, so have insurance or be prepared to pay out of pocket. Cherry eye, allergies, breathing issues are common.
    3. They are lazy, until they have that moment of stubborness and its damn difficult to make a bulldog change their mind.
    4. They are cuddlebugs, and will want to go everywhere you go. They NEED people constantly, so be prepared for that kind of commitment.
    5. Snoring is on another level. Buy a fan, earplugs, or get used to it. Because as a cuddlebug, they will want to sleep wherever you do.
    6. Extreme temperatures arent good for bulldogs, especially the heat. Their build works against them, so consider what’s best for them when taking them on outings.
    7. They are amazing companions. Loyal and content dogs, they are just some of the best.
