I don’t to post links to galleries (too much clicking!) but I’ll make an exception for this one: an AskMen Top 10 list of … manly dogs! (It’s a fun topic, and I was itching to use this cute lil’ bulldog photo above by Neil Lee of BeatnikPad)

Anyhoo, here’s number 10 of AskMen’s Top 10 Manly Dogs:

No.10 – Bulldog

Taking a turn toward a smaller breed, the Bulldog is a pint-sized tough guy, or at least they’re designed to look that way. This dog looks like a mix of a pug and a Mastiff. Bulldogs can look simultaneously peeved and happy, and they have lovable and quirky personalities that are a significant departure from the other manly dogs seen here.

Having a Bulldog as a pet is a surefire way to win friends and impress women; their bullish looks and saggy skin folds provide lots of laughs and their relatively poor conditioning, due to their heavyset, makes for some hilarious outings at the park when tossing a stick around. Still, they are just as dedicated to their territory as any other breed, and their dedicated companionship and ability to inspire are perfect reasons for their use as the official mascot of the U.S. Marine Corps.
