The bulldog, also known as the tiger dog, the bulldog, and the English bulldog, is a dog breed that originated in the United Kingdom, and its ancestors are said to be a combination of the Mastiff Mastiff and the Bull Terrier. On some levels, some have questioned the brutality of bulldogs, which is the result of the indecent treatment of hunters, attackers and killers, because in the case of young pit bulls, they do not attack and be brutal. The Bulldog probably originated in England in the 13th century, before which the Romans also bred a similar breed of fighting dog, so fierce that it was strictly forbidden to appear on the sidewalk by decree. It's unclear when the bulldog epidemic began, but in the 13th century, Orvalen ▪ said he had seen a herd of pit bulls chasing fleeing bulls.
Mr. Warren was so captivated by the chase that he held it six weeks before Christmas every year. Since then, this bloody and cruel game has become popular in Britain and has been deeply loved by nobles and commoners. For hundreds of years, the purpose of breeding a bulldog was to let it play a bloody game on the bullring. Until 1835, public opinion opposed this barbaric competition, but those who loved it would still hold an annual dog fighting tournament, which lasted for several years before it was finally stopped.
The bulldog's bite-and-lock grip is quite powerful and endurance, and once it clamps on its opponent, it will not loosen for a long time until the opponent does not fall to the ground. In bullfighting, cattle have only two options: run and fight. Although cattle can stab the dog with their horns, they are not as flexible as pit bulls, and no matter what choice they make, they cannot escape the fate of being bitten by the group of dogs.
The English Bulldog is 35-50 cm tall and weighs about 20-30 kg and is a medium-sized dog. The fur is smooth, the body is short, strong and heavy, the head is large and wide, the mouth is upturned, the jaw is protruding from the upper jaw and slightly curved upwards in the form of a ground-wrapped form. Flat nose, broad shoulders and strong limbs. The overall appearance and posture show full strength and great stability.
The bulldog has a large head and a head circumference at least equal to the height of the shoulders. The ears are small and thin, quite high in the position of the head, and the inner edge of the front of the ear is connected to the contour line of the head, located in the posterior corner of the top of the head, so that their positions are quite far apart, very high, as far away from the eyes as possible. The eye is viewed from the front, located relatively low on the head, as far away from the ear as possible, and the connection between the corners of the eyes is at a right angle to the stop. The neck is short and very thick, and the back of the neck is deep, strong and rounded.
Both the chest and the body appear very wide, the sides are plump, the ribs are round, and it appears very deep from the shoulder blade to the lowest part (combined with the chest). The base of the chest is very low between the shoulder blades and the front legs, giving him a very wide, short, short legs appearance. The tail is short, low-hanging, firmly downward, with a thick root and a thin tip, straight or spiral. The legs are strong and muscular, and the claws are medium in size, compact and stable.
The skin is soft and sagging, especially on the head, neck and shoulder blades. The head and face are covered with heavy wrinkles, and at the throat, from the jaw to the chest, there are two layers of loose and sagging folds, forming excess flesh. The coat is straight, short, flat, tight, and fine, smooth and shiny. The color of the coat should be balanced, pure and shiny. The colors are as follows: red tabby, other colors tabby, pure white, camel or light brown, spotted. The ideal situation for tabby is that the colors that make up tabby are beautiful, coherent, and evenly distributed. Tabby or solid color with a small amount of white on the chest is not affecting the overall situation. Spot color requires clear and clear color blocks, pure colors, and symmetrical distribution.
The bulldog is calm and gentle, determined and brave, easy to approach and willing to be friends with. Especially those pit bulldogs who are born with people, they will recognize that humans are their friends and good playmates. In addition to playing, it is also an excellent guard dog.
