The Olde English Bulldogge is an American dog breed that was officially recognized by the OREBA, LBA is the Original Dog Registry for this Breed. In the early 1970s, dog breeder David Leavitt of Coatesville, PA. wanted to "recreate a Bulldog with the looks, health and athleticism of the 18th Century Bulldog which was originally created for the English sport of bull-baiting between the years 1100 to 1835".In an effort to rapidly achieve his goal for a purebred dog, Leavitt modeled his program after a livestock line breeding scheme developed by Nathan Fechimer, a professor in the Department of Dairy Science, Ohio State University. The foundation breeding for what became the modern Olde English Bulldogge consisted of English Bulldog, Bullmastiff, American Pit Bull Terrier, and American Bulldog. The result was an athletic breed that looks similar to the bulldogs of 1820, but with a friendly temperament, fewer health issues, and with longevity reaching into the teens. US researchers have said the Olde English Bulldogge is a "viable candidate" as an outcross on which to rebuild the English Bulldog; a breed that genetic studies have suggested is so inbred that it "cannot be returned to health without an infusion of new bloodlines."
