But the main purpose for having this type of canine in the olden days is to be a participant in a game. A particular kind of sport that involves holding down a very angry bull while it is being castrated.

This is an inhumane form of entertainment. And later on, people are starting to see it for the brutal event that it really is and it was then banned from ever happening again. And since there are no need for dogs that are large and athletic, they were cross bred with other types to make them smaller and more domesticated.

The process was administered to make them more tamed. And the ones that you see now are just a fragment of what they were before. Later, the pure breeds became obscure until they cease to exist.

Today, they are not known as canines for sports but they are very famous for the sweet temperament that they have. Aside from the fact that they are no longer pure breeds, there are still other things about the lineage that you have to know. And some of them are stated below.
