Despite its rugged appearance, the English Bulldog is a very good companion dog. This breed is very ancient and very widespread. It is believed that the ancestors of the English Bulldog were fighting dogs, which were bred in Athens. In ancient Rome, the owners of such dogs were forbidden to take them to the city streets because of the tendency to sudden aggression of pets. The breed was bred in order to poison bulls.
Breeders who wanted to preserve this breed by making it kinder have achieved incredible success. From a dog, the breed of which was considered one of the evilest, it was possible to create a very kind creature.
The English Bulldog, whose breed description and character have been repeatedly rewritten in history, adores children, loves to participate in family affairs. They are very attached to family members, so people in adulthood should not have such a dog. The English Bulldog will worry too much about the loss of its owner. His character is serious, calm, self-possessed.
