Bulldogs were originally bred in England for the brutal sport of bull-baiting, but selective breeding transformed them into the affectionate, gentle companions we know today. Their distinctive wrinkled face, stocky build, and underbite are the result of centuries of intentional breeding—making them one of the most visually recognizable dog breeds worldwide.
