Bulldog in Gorgeous Leather Harness From the History of the Breed:

American Bulldog Breed originated in England, probably by crossing dogs, similar to Mastiff, Moloss and Wolfhound. Name “Bulldog” (literally means bull dog) was mentioned for the first time in the 16 century. The functional purpose of these dogs was very cruel – dogs were trained for bull baiting. Due to selecting only the most courageous, intelligent, fearless representatives of the breed could give next generation. The fate of the weak, slow or too large dogs was predetermined during fight. This cruel bulls’ fighting was banned only in 1835. Dog owners began to crossbreed their pets with other breeds, which enabled a new line of fighting dogs to develop and have led to change in the appearance of a bulldog. Modern American Bulldog owes his appearance to the settlers from England to America, which took their pets to the New World and thus protected the breed from the changes under the influence of terriers’ blood.
