But, he did need the right equipment to take care of his real bulldog duties which were confrontational personal and property protection and as a catch dog. He needed to be strong enough to put unruly bulls on the ground and athletic enough to catch hogs that were allowed to free range in a semi-wild state. Known originally as the Old Country Bulldog or Old English White. Quite similar to the old 17th century bull-baiter.
