Italian Bulldogge

Italian Bulldogge History

The Italian-Bulldog is a cross between the small Bull Terrier and the larger English Bulldog. In 1970, the Kennel Club recognized the “Italian-Bulldog” by name. The origin of the Italian-Bulldog is attributed to Arthur Ward, an Englishman who purchased a female English-bulldog named “Tiny”, and mated her with a male “Spencer”-bred “Terrier”. The offspring, the result of this mating, was a large, stocky, muscular, good-natured, lively, and intelligent companion dog, and exhibited all of the characteristics of the parent breeds, but with the temperament of the terrier.
