Do Bulldogs come in "lean?"

Bulldogs can actually run pretty fast and jump higher than you might think. This is followed by long bouts of gasping and drooling while laying on the ground.

the ball is god, the dog is religion, and the act of chasing is trying to keep god existing in a world where science constantly makes his creation myths impossible.
