Bulldogs are GREAT! Sherman reminds me of my former dog. Years ago I had an English Bulldog the same color as Sherman, but with the boot of Italy down his back. His name was ELI! I used to walk him downtown occasionally. That face would clear the sidewalks even though he was a very gentle dog.
Now I have a 5 year old female Rhodesian Ridgeback named Zoe. She is also a great dog. Always keeps me on my toes.
