[edit] Source for the jaw claim?

I suspect the "vice" jaw stuff is utter nonsense. The pitbull manages excellent bitepower with a conventionally arranged jaw. What proof have we that the jaw of authentic bulldogs projected?

My theory is that this is tripe cooked up by modern English bulldog-fanciers to connect their dogs with the original breed.

[edit] Need work

This page is fraught with POV and needs some serious work. Would be great if a professional breeder or someone familiar with breed characteristics/show criteria could improve page,--RexRex84 21:15, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bullmastiff

Could/should the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullmastiff bullmastiff be included? Delete this sentence if assuredly not.
