Bullmastiff
The wrinkly face of the Bullmastiff makes him one adorable dog. While they are not the most wrinkly of dogs, they can tip the scales at 130 pounds, making them one of the larger wrinkly dog breeds on this list. In the 19th century these dogs were known as the “Gamekeeper’s Night-Dog” because they worked as guardians of the grounds. Today, these formidable wrinkle faces prefer a life of leisure and companionship with their people. So if you have a Bullmastiff, yell it loud and proud with this “I Love My Mastiff” magnet!

English Bulldog
The English Bulldog is probably one of the most famous of the wrinkly dog breeds. With their short and stout build and aggressively loud breathing, they can make quite the statement.

Known for being friendly and affable dogs, they make great companions and cuddle partners.

Bloodhound
Bloodhounds are simply adorable dogs. Known for their unparalleled sniffing power, their nose findings in police work are considered admissible testimony in a court of law. Their wrinkles and big ears actually help them waft smells to their nose; what could be better than pleats with a purpose?

Basset Hound
The Basset Hound is one laid-back wrinkle-saurus. The breed was developed in France and described as having a jolie laide appearance, which translates to pretty-ugly or unconventionally attractive. But with their wrinkly face and oversized ears, it is hard to believe that anybody could see them as being anything other than absolutely adorable dogs. They are also known for being sniffing sensations like their fellow Hound breed, the Bloodhound.

Pugs
Pugs may just be one of the most popular wrinkly dog breeds due to their small size and generally easygoing demeanor. They are pocket-sized balls of crumples that have moles on their cheeks, referred to as “beauty spots.” Pug lovers are an enthusiastic and organized bunch. There are events, parades and parties across the US that celebrate the Pug breed in all its wrinkly, loud-breathing glory. For those that treasure the Pug breed, adorn your home with Imagine This Company's “It’s Not a Home Without” Sign that is available for Pugs!

Originally developed in Italy from the Mastiff of Tibet, this gorgeous silver-blue behemoth has a wrinkly dog face that just makes you want to squeeze it! These dogs can grow to be up to 150 pounds of wrinkly cuteness, but be prepared for some drooling. Neapolitan Mastiffs are big-time droolers, but with that much skin, can you really blame them?

Shar-pei
One could argue that the Shar-pei is actually more wrinkle than dog. These walking rumple mugs surely take the cake when it comes to wrinkly dog breeds. These loyal and loving dogs have been traced back to the Han Dynasty (200 B.C.), making them an ancient dog breed. They are also known for being one of the few breeds of dogs that have lavender or blue-black tongues.
