English Bulldog pups for sale have been available long before the internet was invented (thanks Al Gore J). The original bull dog breed originated in England sometime between the 1600s and the 1700s. These early English bulldog pups for sale were the ancestors to many of the Bully breeds of today. These Bull breeds today include the English Bulldog pups and the American Bulldog. They were bred to participate in blood sports like bull baiting. This so called sport, became quite popular in England through out the middle of the 18th Century. Bull baiting primarily consisted of staking out a bull and allowing several Bulldogs to attack it. A dog of great courage and agility was needed for bull baiting. This dog was of medium size; larger dogs were considered to be the result of mastiff crosses.
 
About 1835 A.D. laws were passed in England prohibiting bull baiting and the English Bulldog pups for sale nearly vanished. Within just a few years the number of English Bulldog pups for sale declined drastically-almost to extinction. Dog show fanciers eventually decided to reconstruct the breed, but wanted to tone down the aggressive temperament of the original Olde English Bulldogge. They crossed the remnants of the existing stock with the pug and over the years that followed they developed the modern English Bulldog pup.
 
The goal of Sumo Bull dogs is to produce and make available physically stronger English Bulldog pups for sale that breathe more freely, have improve hip and bone conformation, less cherry eyes, less frequent entropion, and are able to whelp more often without C-sections. The result should be English Bulldog pups of great athletic ability that are much healthier and physically fit. If we are doing our job as breeders the English Bulldog pups for sale we produce should consistently improve over each generation.
 
While the desire of Sumo Bull dogs is to produce healthy wrinkly overdone pups that are athletic and free of many of the ailments that plague many of the more common bloodlines available today.  This is a slow process.  As we enter the 21st century we still have a long ways to go.  Despite valiant breeding efforts on the part of many breeding kennels there remain many areas to improve.  It still remains common today for most bulldogs to have some form of hip dysplasia.  In time and with enough years this is one area that we, during our lifetime, wish to see improved.  We intend to drive progress by seeking out the best males we can.  We believe that through commitment to long term change we can see bone conformation in our bloodlines improve to the point where passable OFA hip certification becomes possible.  for our bloodline to possess OFA certifiable hips.
 
When you consider one of our English bulldog pups for sale you are supporting us in our efforts to continue to improve the breed.  We appreciate your patronage and support.
