For this Bulldogs brutalize to demonstrate their ability to voluntarily suffer. Often such " shows " ended in the death of the dog , but they are , nevertheless , fueled by increasing price of puppies.
We should not forget that while compassion was not up to par . Indifference considered a rule , care is often not provided even to people and animals is not appreciated. Wounded or sick dog recovered itself or die . Surviving the Bulldogs were the most hardy dogs.

So Bulldogs existed before the 1800s . The world has become a little more civilized , a little kinder and more attentive towards smaller brothers . Bull baiting and dog fights were banned by law.
Prohibition of dog fighting in 1835 led to the oblivion of the bulldog and its complete disappearance at home .
Movement against the bloody entertainment was accompanied by increase in the average standard of living that allows the output of human interests beyond mere survival. Became very popular dog show , which began to grow primarily in order to participate in such events .

Some breeds , such as the Irish Wolfhound and Scottish deer hound ( Deerhound ) , were the darlings of the nobility had a long and storied history . Other breeds like the Irish and English Setter , long famous as a hunting dog from landowners who used to rest on the hunt for a bird.
At the same bulldog was not as influential supporters . It was a dog - working commoners - an animal that is adapted to the sweaty and bloody work herdsmen who supplied meat to the table. But it was quite pugnacious dog , and when the ring was going to a few bulldogs , then there is much more excitement than expected this exhibition organizers .As soon as the dog shows began to be held , it was necessary to divide into separate breed dogs . For each breed breeding clean organized clubs that were recorded genealogy and dogs. In order to show the breed at shows , breed and register its representatives, it was necessary to come up with a name for it. As Bulldog exhibition type directly descended from the then existing working bulldog who turned into a separate breed , the name " Bulldog " was perfect. Thus , the name " Bulldog " was given krossbridnym dogs who received a special order to show at exhibitions, and breed , which we call the " British Bulldog " since then and is the name.
Bulldog type exhibition gathered an army of fans, and even the breed became a national symbol of England. Although these Bulldogs were never used for work and totally incapable of bloody battles , however , this breed has been synonymous with British intransigence . The initial form of the bulldog has been forgotten at home . But this did not happen with the Bulldogs , who are in the British colonies along with immigrants . History bulldog , so not over.
In the early 1700s, the economic situation in England was quite severe. The prisons were full of people unable to pay their debts. They were delivered to the condition they will be released from prison if settle in the new colony in Georgia. The idea of settling had a dual purpose . First, she had to serve as a link between the British possessions in Virginia and the Carolinas, French possessions in New Orleans and the Spanish in Florida. Secondly , the Kingdom filmed with responsibilities feeding debtors prisons.
Although no debtors never reached Georgia , new colonies were settled by many enthusiastic representatives of the working class, who eked out a miserable existence in England and gladly seized the opportunity to start a new life in America. Many of these immigrants brought with them all their belongings , including dogs . Much of this work was presented dogs bulldogs the time when dog shows were not yet organized , and baiting bulls have not been banned.
Over time, the dogs began to organize exhibitions in America, was created by the American Kennel Club ( AKC ) . America was going through then the Civil War . New York, Boston and Philadelphia became the centers of commerce and culture , Chicago and represented himself strong brother at the border. South looked much poorer, less educated , and was considered a " country bumpkin ."
No attempt to include different breeds of dogs in the list of South American Kennel Club has been taken . Foreign breed imported from other lands were considered "chic" ; South dogs were considered normal . Since the game has already been registered breed called " bulldog ", then for a bulldog from the South had to come up with another name , in the event of vigorous interest in this breed people do not confuse it with the English Bulldog . But interest in the breed spread from the South was not evidenced . This led to the fact that it was called differently : Exhibition bulldog , old bulldog , working bulldog pit bulldog , bulldog fighting - these names are used at different times, were also among them such as the southern white, white old style big dzhordzhinsky - all this belongs to the American Bulldog .Canine boom of the second half of 80th and the emergence of numerous books on dog breeding have not added awareness of the working American Bulldog . So in 1990-1991 . virtually no one , at least in Moscow, not even heard of such a breed. Meanwhile, the 70 -80s were marked by the rapid growth of the popularity of " Giants of Georgia " in their homeland. A growing number of professional nurseries , the number of registered litters , the Bulldogs are finding new fans in almost all states. And most importantly, in the 90s , American Bulldogs are starting to lead the competition in training , which puts them in a row on the ability to obey such recognized " campaigners ", as the German and Belgian Shepherds .
However , winning the " tempering " championships - a phenomenon in itself significant and very rare for a dog of the Molosser group , - for American Bulldog - a "demonstration ", the finishing touch in their career versatile working breed . All these long history in his own unique dogs , closely related to the practical application for various purposes, passed away from exhibitions and show business , being as it were, in deep shadow from the official , " Kennel Club ."
Bulldogs helped hunt and impound , however, by the end of the century there was one area of their application : bred flocks of wild dogs destroyed all life around and sometimes cause significant damage to local residents , attacking domestic animals and birds . Dr. Karl Simensik calling American bulldogs including fighting breeds , believes that in this century extermination of stray dogs is the main specialty of " pit bulldogs " (the former name of the breed ) . Here is how he describes the hunting of wild dogs with bulldogs in his book "The World of fighting dogs » (The World of Fighting Dogs. By Dr. Carl Semencic, 1984) : " Pete Bulldog performs at this very important task - rushes into the interior of the pack and attacking the leader, either by killing him or hold long enough to come on time and his human partners completed deal with weapons .
Job dog is much more complicated than it might seem , because she has to fight not only the leader , but also against the other members of the pack , which usually protect their leader. For dogfights requires such a large and powerful dog , for the first shot on to the leader must be so devastating that it would be impossible to escape . American pit bull dog quite effective to quickly cope not only with the leaders , but often with other members of the pack of wild dogs .... in fact , for this purpose it is most often bred . "
Until the end of the 50s , American Bulldogs have not been registered in a national canine organization had no official pedigrees and "single stud book " did not participate in exhibitions and competitions . Cultivation was conducted in the "old ", according to the traditions and the advice of experienced breeders , selection of manufacturers - almost exclusively on working qualities . Billy B. Haynes in his "Notes on the history and early breeding American bulldogs " tells of his search for the Bulldogs of blood : " I myself have to work hard to find , at last, the great females of the old workers' boar lines Alan Scott - they include many famous dogs of the past.The trick is to " unearth " line , not spoiled dogs from kennels. I had to look very much to find very little . All were in godforsaken places in the forest wilderness , where I did not have found if not for the advice of my friends from the old-timers and do not guarantee them for me. " As you can see from this quote , the old breeders rarely gave puppies and dogs " outsiders " , and this is another reason more recently, local distribution and unfamiliarity with the breed am .
