In the 19th century, bull baiting was outlawed in England, and the Bulldog's popularity declined. However, the breed was saved from extinction by a group of enthusiasts who began to breed Bulldogs for companionship rather than fighting. The modern Bulldog is a gentle and loving dog that makes a wonderful family pet.
