    I like a dog that is built to win, lol. Seriously though I like a dog with a solid front end (front legs like baseball bats). I also like a little longer leg on my animal with a springy back end along with enough muscle to pack a lot of driving power, but nothing overdone. I like a dog that is big for it's weight. I don't like anything barrel chested or bully. I also wouldn't mind a solid head piece, but again nothing adding more mass than needed. To be truthful though I really don't care what an animal looks like as long as it is what it is supposed to be. Can't judge a book by it's cover, and form doesn't follow function.

    Pretty much sums it up in a nutshell. I def like spring in my dog head piece is not as important to me though as long as the crunch is there.

    I actually like thinned boned, well muscled, rangy dogs... Deep thin chest, long neck is ALWAYS important to me. long everything actually.

    BUT they need the style to go with that build or they get snapped like toothpicks...

    I don't like dogs that are built "durable" couse if they're built that way they HAVE to be durable, cuz they aint getting out of anythings way...

    I like them all as long as it's a bulldog and it comes from bulldogs. Bullies are a joke. The best part of a bully dripped down the dams leg. What really impresses me is lean and mean. I love the ugly lookin mongrels. I can definitely appreciate a beautiful animal as well. My favorite features are a deep (not wide) chest, long neck, and thick muscular rear legs.

    I like them muscular, but not overbuild frame like an AMbully and i dont like the skinny greyhoud look like pits you see sometimes.

    the handler of he lean dog will always have the advantage simply bc he is bringing the bigger dog out

    the length and leg is a huge asset...as the length gives leverage....length gives the advantage of a 'bigger' dog at a lower weight....the thick bulky muscle requires a lot more oxygen from the blood...heart pumps harder to accomplish the same task...length and leg for me any day...but i am not subjective or concerned solely with phenotype....even the stubby/muscle bound gets a shot too....US1

    Perfect example. I always say they should look like a boxer(not the dog :D) instead of a football player.
