The only type of canine breed which the Aboriginal people used was the dingo.
No, they were originally bred as watch dogs. Dog organisations now class them as 'working dogs' though most of them are now family pets. It is thought that it was originally bred from hunting breeds.
The general answer is hunting game. More specific breeds were bred for hunting specific game or responding in different ways. For example, wolfhounds were bred for hunting wolves. Some breds were bred with shorter legs so that the hunting could be done with the human on foot instead of on horseback. It really depends on the specific breed history.
They were bred to be circus dogs. They were used as hunting dogs,too. But people don't use them for hunting anymore. Maybe they still use bichons for the circus.
Show dogs are dogs that have been bred and raised mostly for their conformational traits as what is required by certain show organizations to enable them to be entered into a show. Certain breeds are bred for different traits for show which are usually apart from what they are actually used for, such as herding, sporting/hunting, guarding, etc. For example, a Labrador that is bred for show would have different traits, behaviour and conformation from a Labrador bred to be a hunting dog. The same goes for other breeds like German Shepherds, Border Collies, Springer Spaniels, Corgies, etc.
