@miggysss1 The old english bulldog and the white english terrier were crossed to achieve the great pitbull terrier. This is what most speculate any how and is likely the case.

Bless the true apbt!!!

Ok so here is all your answers, the apbt is a dog that was 1st bred in England, not America, it's a cross between a bulldog and terrier, known as a bull and terrier, there isn't a dog called a bulldog, a dog used for baiting bulls was called a bull baiting dog, it resembled today's apbt, they also used a larger dog today known as a mastiff, both dogs would attack the bulls nose and hang on, they usually worked in pairs, eliminating dog aggression, like the modern dogo argentino bred to hunt, t

A British dog with an American name, I think many people in Britain still have Pit Bulls but register them as Staffordshire bull terrier to avoid prosecution.

@Oliveah31587 I got an imported pit, they are amazing, slight difference but all over beautiful dogs.

@lsiwankiw pitbulls were created by bull terriers

@lsiwankiw Its themselves, and yes these are apbts of the old days. Back then they were one in the same. People didnt really concern themselves with specific breeds rather the jobs they performed.

nice collection of pics you hav , its good to see ppl take an interest in the breed history and its origins and your right about the bull and terrier being behind both bulldogs and pitbulls, dont let all those with less knowledge then yourself bother you leave them to their mutts and and stupidity. have a good one and greetings from ireland |
