BulldogClubofCentralCanada

Welcome, to the official site of the Bulldog Club of Central Canada!

The Bulldog Club of Central Canada was the first club to be established in Canada in the 1920's. It was first called the English Bulldog Club of Canada, with a membership of about 100 at that time.

The Club gained recognition with the CKC in 1964,

and was registered in June of 1979.

BREED ORIGIN:

The bulldog is the symbol of tenacity and stubborn determination. Centuries ago, the breed was called the “bandogge” since the dog spent much of its time bonded to or tied up with other dogs. The earliest reference to “bulldog” was found in literature in 1609. As British as Sir Winston Churchill, the Bulldog is believed to have evolved from the Molossian dog first brought to Britain by Phoenician traders in the 6th century BC. The breed was exploited in the sport of "bullbaiting" or fights between dogs and dogs., a practice that existed from Roman times. Though the Bulldog may appear to be oddly made, each point of its structure was bred into the breed to aid or protect it while attempting to overcome a bull. In 1835 "bullbaiting" became forbidden in England. The future looked bleak for the Bulldog, until a handful of breeders set out to preserve this wonderful breed, that had become a symbol of Great Brittan. The English Bulldog is the English national breed. Bulldog lovers who saved the breed transformed the dog into a friendly and loving pet. .These dogs are extremely sweet and tolerant with children. When The Kennel Club (England) was organized in 1873, the Bulldog was among the first of the breeds to be recognized.
