Cuddly comes in both big and small packages.
Ramsey, a three-year-old blue Staffordshire bull terrier who lives in Surrey, England with his owner, Jason Ashley, is proving to be a perfect ambassador for his misunderstood breed by being one of the most adorable pups on Instagram.
The smiley, friendly pooch came into Jason's life when he was just eight weeks old, and he's been man's best friend ever since. "He is so affectionate and everything he does is done with such love. I'm just so proud of him. He is really helping people see the true nature of his breed," Ashley told Mashable in an email.
Pit bulls, Rottweillers and blue Staffordshire terriers like Ramsey are often stereotyped as aggressive breeds. However, with every photo Jason posts on Instagram, he hopes he is breaking down the stereotype.
"Three words to describe Ramsey would be: caring, happy and strong," Jason said. "[His] favourite thing in the world is fetch. Whether that's on land or in water."
More photos of Ramsey and his many adventures can be found on Instagram.

Thank you so much @hadleyclaystudio for this amazing mug. I should of got a photo sooner but I've literally used it about 5 times a day, everyday, so I haven't had a chance. ..... I just love the personal craftsmanship of it, it's better quality than any random mug. Absolutely love it!! #ramseyartwork A photo posted by RAMSEY (@bluestaffy) on Sep 20, 2015 at 11:14am PDT
