With all due (emphasis on "due") respect,
BUlldogs are pretty ugly but I have had friends that are owners of one and they cana ctually be quite affectionate, very smart, and yes, even playful.
I have yet to see a COW, BULL, or any other strain of Bovine that posesses any actual intelligence..
Its true that a certain dog in Georgia is truly the butt ugliest critter mascot in the USA, and like any other animal depending on the one beholding it, it can be just beautiful or just plain U-G-L-Y you ain't got no alibi: yer UGLY, Yeah you're UGLY..
M-A-M-A we know how you got that way.............
Yer mama. Yeah, yer mama!
