It is a dog that has seen a bloody history as a mastiff used in the blood sport of bull baiting during ancient times around the Mediterranean area. It was widely distributed by Phoenician traders throughout Europe, but when the sport was outlawed, many of the remaining mastiffs became pets and companions.
