The English Bulldog, often called simply the Bulldog,
is a medium-sized dog breed that originated in the United
Kingdom. The bulldog has a very smooth coat, wrinkly cheeks,
powerful front legs and smaller hind legs. Contrary to
classic cartoon parodies that depicted the bulldog as
ferocious and wearing a spiked dog collar, the bulldog
is not a vicious dog breed (though it was during the days
of bullbaiting, the aggressive tendencies were bred out
of them by the time of the Second World War) and gets
along well with both humans (including children) and sometimes
other dog breeds. Bulldogs are very friendly, but stubborn
and protective.
