Country of Origin: France
History: The Dogue de Bordeaux is one of the oldest French Breeds. Its actual origins are obscure but it probably descended from one of the strains of Mastiff type dogs that accompanied Macedonian and Roman armies through Asia, Europe and Britain. They were used as guardian dogs for protecting homes, butcher shops and vineyards, as well as pack hunting dogs that baited bulls and pursued boars, bears and jaguars. The breed narrowly missed extinction during the two world wars but enjoyed resurgence in the 1960s. Sometime in the early 1980s the first Dogue was imported to the United States. The breed is now used today almost exclusively as a family companion and house guardian.
