You couldn't recreate a Florida cur today because they aren't used for like they once were. That's what made the dogs that we have today. You're not going to go out and gather truly wild cattle on open range today. Most people say they started with bulldog and hound, by bulldog that does not mean pit. There is a big difference between the two.

What type of bulldog are you referring to then? Most people who bred performance bred pit bulls back in the day called them bulldogs not pits, in fact in most of those circle they are still referred to as bulldogs not pits. Thats kind of a newer term for them. I thought the only bulldogs around in the U.S. in the late 1800's and early 1900's were bulldogs (apbt's)? Just curious about these other type bulldogs (size, weight, where they came from)?
The predecessor to what is now known as the American Bulldog. Commonly known in the southeast as a White English...but definitely not the AKC English. Dogs are thought to have decended from the Alano. Were these dogs intermingled with APBT? It would be foolish to believe they were not...exactly how much? Who knows. The "breed" American Bulldog was "established" by two men in the late 60's early 70's from old farm bulldogs. Their history is debateable at best and their progression is divergent as it gets.
