Funny English Bulldog Shirts

The English Bulldog was bred in England for bull baiting, a blood sport that was banned in 1835. Breeders then turned the bulldog into the gentle, stubborn companion people know now, and the breed kept the build: broad chest, low center of gravity, a face full of wrinkles and absolutely no interest in hurrying. A bulldog does not go for a walk so much as agree to one, on its own schedule, with frequent rest stops.

These are our funniest English Bulldog designs, all original illustrations. The weight class: "Small Legs, Big Opinions," a bulldog smashing through a monument, "Make Room for Your Weight" and "Mass Shift," an engineering diagram of a bulldog changing direction. The nap department: "Heavy Rest," "Rest Is Part of the Work" and "The Plan Was Napping," where a fox waits for a scheme that never comes. The stubborn streak: "Not Yet," "Still Here" and "Release on Cue," starring a tug rope that is not being released. Bulldog upkeep: "Toy Inspector," "Clean, Dry, Repeat" for the wrinkle laundry and "Shade First" for a breed that hates the heat. And the big ideas: "Moon Parking," "No Big Deal" with a chewed-up dinosaur, "City Block," a frog prince told to "Kiss Later," a very British tea break, and classic paintings like The Scream, The Creation of Adam and Dogs Playing Poker.

Why are English Bulldogs so stubborn?

The breed was originally selected for grit and persistence, and today's companion bulldog kept that steady, determined streak. Most owners find short, food-motivated training sessions work better than long ones, and that the bulldog will still decide when the walk is over.
