families and people of all ages.
History
Bulldogs were originally bred in the United Kingdom for bull-baiting, a popular sport in the 13th century. Their robust and tenacious nature was valued in this sport, hence the breed's name. However, when bull-baiting was banned in the 19th century, Bulldogs were bred to be companion animals, leading to the amicable and easy-going temperament they are known for today.
