The bulldog of the late 1800s and early 1900s is the same dog as today\u2019s pit bull terrier. The only thing that has changed about this dog breed in the last century are the different names it goes by: bulldog, pit dog<\/a>, bull pit<\/a>, bull terrier \u2014 pit bull terrier<\/a>. Modern dogfighters<\/a> still call their fighting pit bulls \u201c100% bulldog.\u201d (See: Disguise breed name<\/a>)<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
