Best Answer

Olde English Bulldogges are a type of Bulldog that are usually bigger and stockier than regular English Bulldogs. The Olde English Bulldogges are closer to the form of their ancestors bred for dog fighting and baiting bulls. English bulldogs are smaller and more clownish, with shorter legs, shorter bodies, and shorter snouts, with a more comedic temperment. Olde English Bulldogges are more of working stock, English Bulldogs are more of show stock. :)

Imagine the modern American Bulldog, which is a close example of the old Bulldogs in Europe. In the early 1800's, bull-baiting became illegal and the Bulldogs suddenly had no use in Europe. At this point, sport fanciers crossed the Bulldog with terriers to create the Bull-and-Terrier, a breed similar to our modern pit bull. Others crossed the Bulldog with pugs and other smaller breeds to create a more "lazy, lap-dog" version of the bulldog, which became the modern day English Bulldog.

American Pit Bull Terriers and Staffordshire Bull Terriers are very similar in appearance, with the main difference being that Pit Bulls are usually considerably larger and have longer legs.
