INTRODUCTION

The term 'Bulldog' was first used around 1568. in the late 1600's bulldogs were used for bullbaiting (as well as bearbaiting), a wagering sport. a head of great size provided the powr required of the jaws to secure the iron grip on the bulls nose. the muzzle of the bulldog was shaped so that the dog could clamp on and still be free to breath in air. Wrinkles on the dogs muzzle channeled the bloodflow away from the dogs eyes and nose. An act of parliment outlawed bullbaiting in 1835 but it took some number of years after that for it to finally stop. Bulldog lovers started turning to dog shows for their pleasures.
