A few years ago our son, Tyler, acquired this little guy. He named him Douglas--after the main character from the sitcom, "King of Queens". If you've never seen a Bulldog puppy in person, you've missed out on one of life's simple joys! A Bulldog puppy is likely as close as you can get to experiencing a living, breathing cartoon character; with the possible exception of Howard Stern or some Goomer like that.
Nearly everything these little guys do is humorous. All they have to do is look at you to make you smile.
As a puppy, when Doug would take off running full speed down hill, his underweight tail-end would eventually come flying up over his head and he'd go tumbling rear-end over teakettle, completely unaware of what had just happened. After squirming around in the grass for a while he'd eventually get his puppy-self under control and back up on his feet. Then, he'd look all around as if to say, "HEY...WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT!"
Anyway, I felt you might enjoy a few pictures of Douglas...who is now all grown up and living in the big city. Aside from having gained about 60 pounds since I took these pictures, he's pretty much the same. A very happy guy to have hanging around the house!
