History
For centuries bull baiting was a common sight on the village greens of England where a bull would be tied up and dogs encouraged to attack it. a type of dog particularly wee adapted to the sport. short in the legs fierce with strong jaws. It was developed from Mastiff stock. Bull baiting became illegal in 1835 and over the years breeding has taken the rough edges from the dog's character and exaggerated its a stocky build and pushed in face. The bulldog came to represent solidity and courage.
