The Australian Bulldog originally known as the Aussie Bulldog is a developing dog breed from Australia. Selective breeding was begun in the 1990s by breeders who wished to create a dog with the look of a Bulldog without that breed's inherent health problems. There were two independent breeding programs one by Noel and Tina Green (the JAG line) and a separate program by Pip Nobes (the Nobes Australian Bulldog- Wingara lines). Each has its own separate registries.
