7 Reasons Why English Bulldogs Are The Best Dogs Of Them All

I absolutely adore all dogs, but it's no doubt that English Bulldogs stand out like no other breed does.

As an English Bulldog owner, I can verify this statement. They are the sweetest, most loyal dogs (like, all of them!), but it's something about bullies that makes them shine through any other dog breed. These dogs have the power to captivate anyone in their sight, and they're not scared to show that!


1. They have large, eerie eyes.

Look at those eyes! What is your dog hiding? What does he know that we don't? There isn't exactly a way to find out, but I know those eyes will make you believe there is. It's almost hypnotizing; there's no way those eyes would go unnoticed because they're just too cute.

2. They make great family pets.

Bulldogs have every quality you would want in a household pet, they're loyal, protective, and lazy. Because of their gentle temperament, they work great with children. They're laid-back, dependable, and never fail to amaze you with their unique personalities. In addition to their favorable traits, they're also known to be quite strong-willed and stubborn.

3. They have wrinkles!

From their rolls to their wrinkles, they are the chubbiest fun-loving dogs on the planet. They're so soft and fun to cuddle with. It's impossible to meet a bulldog without getting down to pet them and rub their flappy ears. Especially as puppies, they seem to show the most rolls.

4. They always crave attention.

While this trait may be hated by some, it's definitely underrated for me. I want a dog who'll stay by my side regardless, and the english bulldog fits into this ratio flawlessly. They're not too needy, but they aren't independent enough to completely forget about you.

5. They're unknowingly funny.

If you haven't noticed already, these stocky dogs look extremely different than your average dog. Their jawlines, underbites, and stubby noses make them seem intimidating, but upon closer examination it's not difficult to tell they're "scary" features are actually hilarious. After a long day at work or school, an English Bulldog is exactly what you need to cheer you up.

6. They're absolute couch potatoes.

Want a dog to snuggle and watch TV all day with? Look no further, the English bulldog is the breed for you. Needing low levels of activity, they make the perfect companion dogs at home. They NEVER leave your side (even if you want them to!) and they won't ever get bored of doing the same thing every day as some dogs might. This isn't an excuse to never exercise them though, bulldogs are prone to gaining weight more than other breeds are.

7. They're not quiet dogs.

When I say bulldogs are loud, I DON'T mean they bark too much, which they don't! I mean they're unusually noisy but in a good way. They snore, pant, wheeze, grunt, and snort. While almost all find these traits annoying, I find bulldogs' little quirks adorable. It's what makes them distinctive to their other dog cousins.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
