   You know, the more I look, the more bulldogs remind me of Kabang, but with no bottom jaw either. http://www.careforkabang.com/

   If it’s nose was brought forward to just about where it’s tongue is sticking out rather than tilted right up between the eyes (obscured by that big wrinkle) it would still be too short in the muzzle. But it would be a start and an improvement.

   And yet it still has all the skin that would normally be stretched over a muzzle if it had a muzzle.

   I’m an atheist, and all I can think to say is that this is a SIN against dogdom!

   This is a pretty normal look for a primate. Isn’t this some sort of Primate?

     It’s the result of some sort of primate.

   But the best of breed winner didn’t get thrown out at Crufts this year, unlike last year, although he didn’t make the final lineup glad to see. A bracycephalic dog did make the final seven in toys though; the japanese chin (albeit no chin of course).
