Dog Breed Profile

Bully Bordeaux History

The Bulldog is a very old English breed of domestic dog. The name “Bulldog” is believed to have originated from its use as a bait or fighting bulldog. The Bulldogs ancestors were the bull-baiting dogs that were trained to fight with bulls. By the late Middle Ages, a female version of the male baiting “bull-and-terrier” type, was being developed in the monasteries of England and in other European venues. These females were then used for keeping and for breeding. The modern Bulldog descends from this line of dogs, which were sometimes called “the Old Breed” to distinguish them from the newer types of bull-and-terrier. The Bulldog has been a popular dog in Europe and North America since about 1800, when its popularity was cemented by the efforts of Sir Edwin Landseer.
