Well, I didn't watch the videos because I can't ... my computer is too old and slow.

But we own an English Bulldog ... and, in all honesty ... yeah, she's a bit on the ugly side. That is the appeal ... so ugly she's cute.

We are certainly not hyper-sensitive about the fact that we own a breed of dog that many people consider "ugly." But it seems that SO many people are so quick to jump on that hyper-sensitive band wagon these days.

The dog doesn't know someone voted for it as "The Ugliest Dog" on some internet page somewhere. If the dog has a good home and its owners love it ... that is ALL the dog cares about. Dogs are not like children ... they aren't offended, hurt and scarred if someone says they are ugly. They just want a scratch behind the ear and a treat.

I just said to Rosie, our EBD, "Are you ugly, Rosie? Are your feeling hurt by that label?" She wagged her tail (well, her whole body actually, she doesn't have much of a tail) and tried to climb in my lap. I don't think she was too hurt by the remark.
