English Bull Terrier is surely the worst dog. I saw someone walking a huge one the other day, it was about the size of a small pig.

I also automatically assume that everyone who owns one of these is a racist.

I must say this doesn't make a lick of goddamn sense.

It is a handsome and noble dog for everyone on the spectrum from anti-racist to racist and in between.

they're weird in that they combine the most non-human head shape of any dog, with some of the most human-like expressions.

This is more or less the best thing I've ever seen, pug related or otherwise:

lol one of the pugs in that belongs to a friend form college. Isn't it awesome. My favorite is the one with the knitted Yankee cap.

Oh wait - 3 of them are wearing Yankee hats. I mean the one at the bag in the shots where they're sitting around the table.

my brother now has four dogs apparently, as well as two or three cats icr

this is totally true

not all of them are racists im sure, but if u wanted to create a heuristic for a certain type of person in a certain type of london suburb, it would be 'english bull terrier owners'

i was quite surprised to see a young black women with an EBT (xref with EBJT), except no, she was just walking past and the actual owner was a middle aged white dude who was trying to get it to shit in an underlit area of pavement

I went through Penge the other day and I swear that like 90% of the dogs I saw there were English bull terriers.

If dogs have such sensitive noses, why don't they seem to mind when I fart in their faces?

Unless you're eating remarkably sulfurous food (onions, garlic, egg whites etc) which emit the universally (among animals) reviled hydrogen sulfide upon digestion, the distaste for manure smells is largely just cultural.

Dogs, you've probably noticed love smelling (and among German Shepards, eating) feces. It is a marker of identity as well as signal of what's on the menu locally. I've never lived with a dog that didn't love smelling about the toilet seat to gather information.

This is a very bizarre website. That said, it's probably among the best things on the internet I've seen in some time, if only for the pug portraits.

A man is fighting for his life in hospital after he was mauled by two savage dogs on a beach.

The unnamed victim, 30, was severely bitten all over his body by a pet mastiff cross and a Staffordshire bull terrier on Brighton beach, East Sussex, on Friday morning.

A 40-year-old man believed to be the dogs' owner was arrested at the scene on suspicion of assault and possession of a knife and Class A drugs.

Remember that pic of the older pony-tailed dude cradling his dog in his arms while they float in the lake so the dog can sleep?

WCCO did a segment on him, which CNN picked up.

Warning, this vid will make you cry.

"Yaaaay! Another march!"

Despite my handle, I used to be mortally afraid of dogs and I'm still fairly jumpy around some of them. But I found in recent years that I'm allergic to cats. I'm now much more partial to well-behaved dogs than any cat.

Damn you Kingfish! I just watched that video and sure enough oh the tears. At my desk. At work.

My British lab ROCKS, when I had surgery he had to poop inside, and being a high class well bred dog has never done this. I mean, this dog never does anything wrong. He felt ashamed about it. So did I.

I had to explain to the super snooty and Japanese home "inspector" that we are normally very clean people but are sick, I am sorry. It would have been nice if he bitched about my extremely brave and well-behaved dog to my face, it's too bad his superior breeding as a human doesn't allow for that.

dog photobomb win

No one voted for German Shepard or Doberman Pinscher! Granted, these are quite large dogs who require a lot of space and exercise, but in the 1980s and 1990s, these were among the most popular dogs in the universe. Lo! How the mighty have fallen.

I hate dobermans
