"They're just big, lovely couch potatoes," said Jackie Valent, a bulldog buff who founded the holiday and organized Saturday's short parade.

More than being just a pooch pageant, Saturday's parade was about appreciating difference, said Valent. While the bulldog may appear grouchy with its wrinkly face and tendency to huff and puff, they are loyal, loving and sweet -- just as people can be, Valent said. "We tend to categorize people and label people, and if we respected each other, we'd be in a better place," Valent said.
