I'm sure I'm no the only one who is a bit uncomfortable wit how they are representing bulldogs in the Sherlock Holmes movies. @-@
We know that the breed didn't look anything like the ones we see now, it would be impossible for those times to reproduce them wit c-sections and artificial inseminations, poor dogs.
They were still doing the bull baitings in that period right?
I know it's just a movie, but maybe they could have used another breed that haven't changed so mush?
The dogs of the old bull baiting drawings reminds me of the spanish breed alano español
