Historical evidence suggests that this dog emerged in the thirteenth century, in England. At that time it was used as a guard dog, but its main objective was blood sports, specifically bull fattening.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Given his fearless, fierce, and tenacious attitude, the English bulldog was thrown into a bull pit to fight. Once inside, its strong jaws served to outwit and hold the great animal. This is how the name \u201cbulldog\u201d was born.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Once bull fattening was banned, breeders devoted their efforts to making this bulldog the gentle, calm, family pet we know today.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Although its stocky, muscular structure and that intimidating bite can give us the impression of an aggressive dog, the truth is that the English bulldog is quite docile and affectionate.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Most of them exhibit a relaxed and carefree character, which makes them patient and affectionate with children.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>They also tend to get along well with other pets in the household but may show territorial aggression toward unfamiliar dogs, or potential threats.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Origin: England<\/li>\r\n<li>Life expectancy: 8-10 years<\/li>\r\n<li>Height: 35-38cm<\/li>\r\n<li>Weight: 18-22kg<\/li>\r\n<li>Temperament: friendly, docile, outgoing<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"American_Bulldog\"><\/span>American Bulldog<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The American bulldog is the classic dog that demonstrates endurance, agility, and strength. It is a direct descendant of the English bulldog, although it is slightly more athletic, taller, and heavier. After its arrival in North America in the 19th century, the breed evolved as an agricultural working dog. The American bulldog was capable of guarding cattle, herding, and capturing wild boar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Sometime later, his even-tempered and obedient personality led him to become an excellent family pet. He is often described as an oversized dog with a lapdog attitude. He loves to please his owner, adopting a true clown attitude.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>On the other hand, he is an incredibly brave dog, who will be ready to defend you if he thinks it necessary.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>When well socialized, American Bulldogs are very affectionate with children and tend to get along with other animals. They are usually wary, but not aggressive, towards strangers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>A peculiarity of the American dog is its high level of energy.

Also known as the Frenchie, this dog was bred with the intention of obtaining a smaller, more attractive bulldog for most families.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The first specimens of the breed are said to have appeared during the Industrial Revolution in Nottingham, England. They soon became very popular companions among lacemakers, as their size enabled them to accommodate apartment life.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Later, when the center of the lace industry moved to northern France, many workers moved there, bringing their adorable dogs with them. Little by little, the old Frenchie was crossed with other popular breeds, giving rise to the modern French bulldog.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This bulldog has the most distinctive physique among all other types, not only because of its size but also because of its large bat-like ears and short, flat snout. Like his close relatives, he remains a compact, muscular dog.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It is excellent as a companion animal. He usually has a cheerful, curious, and enthusiastic personality. Although it does not require much exercise, it is important that it has the opportunity to play.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Origin: England, France<\/li>\r\n<li>Life expectancy: 10-12 years<\/li>\r\n<li>Height: 30cm<\/li>\r\n<li>Weight: 8-12kg<\/li>\r\n<li>Temperament: affectionate, playful, alert, patient, cunning<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Australian_Bulldog\"><\/span>Australian Bulldog<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>As the name suggests, this type of bulldog originated in Australia around 1998. Although the Australian bulldog is very similar to its English cousin, there are obvious influences from other breeds, for example, the boxer.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This breed was developed by Noel and Tina Green, the founders of an Australian breeding program, whose goal was to obtain a functional bulldog that would be better suited to the harsh Australian climate.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>As you might expect, the main breed used was the English bulldog. From its cross with the boxer, the Bullmastiff, and the Staffordshire bull terrier, the new Australian dog was obtained. It is a bulldog similar to its predecessor in appearance and temperament, but much healthier and more heat tolerant.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The Australian bulldog can be the perfect pet for those who want a fun, easygoing, intelligent, and loyal dog. He loves to swim and play in the water, which is why he is the ideal companion to take to the beach. He is usually a good <strong>children&#8217;s bulldog<\/strong> and is suited to both home and apartment life.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Its typical state of alert makes it a good alarm dog, although it is worth clarifying that it is not good as a <strong>guard dog<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Origin: Australia<\/li>\r\n<li>Life expectancy: 10-12 years<\/li>\r\n<li>Height: 43-50cm<\/li>\r\n<li>Weight: 22-35kg<\/li>\r\n<li>Temperament: affectionate, loyal, sociable, intelligent<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Old_English_bulldog\"><\/span>Old English bulldog<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Many mistakenly believe that the Old English Bulldog and the English Bulldog are the same, but the reality is that they are two different types of the bulldog. The English bulldog is the result of a mix between the English mastiff, American bulldog, English bulldog, and pitbull terrier breeds.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Developed in the 1970s by David Leavitt, the Old English Bulldogge was intended to bring back the 18th-century bulldog. Leavitt wanted to breed a dog that would retain the looks, health, and athleticism of the old bulldogs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The end result was a powerful, athletic bulldog with all the physical qualities of the bully dogs of the past, but with a sweeter temperament. The Bulldogge is larger, more agile, and energetic than the English variety; his face is also less flat.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>While he can be willful, brave, and assertive as a guard dog, he also exhibits a kind and loving side. As an owner, it is important to note that this bulldog is alpha-minded; You must make it clear to him who is the leader of the pack from when he is a puppy to establish the hierarchy of the home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Origin: United States<\/li>\r\n<li>Life expectancy: 11 years or more<\/li>\r\n<li>Height: 40-51cm<\/li>\r\n<li>Weight: 22-36kg<\/li>\r\n<li>Temperament: brave, adaptable, docile, protective<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Catahoula_Bulldog\"><\/span>Catahoula Bulldog<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The Catahoula Bulldog is a cross between the American Bulldog and the Catahoula Leopard Dog.

The breed was developed for the execution of common tasks in the region, such as hunting big game and herding cattle.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Although many people may not have heard of them, at the time these bulldogs were very successful. The Catahoula brought out the best in both parents. Physically, it is noted for its wide variety of colors and intensely vivid eyes. Character-wise, he is described as a kind, loyal companion and an excellent guardian.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>He is extremely affectionate with his family members. It tends to get along well with children but is recommended for homes with older children. It is not that it is aggressive by nature, but it can hurt very young children.

The result was not only a breed similar to the old Victorian dogs but also healthier.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The Victorian bulldog variety is slightly taller and less wide than typical bulldogs. He has fewer respiratory problems, which is a big concern for most brachycephalic breeds, such as the traditional English bulldog.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>He retains the same carefree, affectionate and calm personality. He is said to be a reliable and emotionally intuitive dog. As a family pet he is second to none; not only is he excellent with children, but he tends to get along with other animals.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Even so, you must receive the proper training; otherwise, he might try to take over.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Origin: England<\/li>\r\n<li>Life expectancy: 10-12 years<\/li>\r\n<li>Height: 41-48cm<\/li>\r\n<li>Weight: 25-34kg<\/li>\r\n<li>Temperament: loving, gentle, sociable, calm, trustworthy<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-heading stk-block-heading stk-block stk-61a6348\" data-block-id=\"61a6348\">\r\n<h2 class=\"stk-block-heading__text\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Valley_Bulldog\"><\/span>Valley Bulldog<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The Valley Bulldog is another type of hybrid bulldog.
