of the nineteen century when gamekeepers needed to protect
game preserves and large estates from poachers. Dog

breeds to produce a dog breed that would possess the
required aggressiveness, strength, speed, intelligence
and the quietness needed to scare off approaching poachers.
Some might say that a Bull Mastiff looks a lot like
a bulldog because of it’s sad look. And they are right.

red fawn which is known to many as a red-fawn.
