Hey man, she’s your dog, you feed her, the only opinion that matter is yours. If she makes you happy and doesn’t piss you off then that’s all that matters. I used to get caught up critiquing other folks dogs and taking their criticism of mine to heart. Life is short for us humans and way shorter for our dogs. If the dog makes you and your family happy then that is the only thing that matters. Nobody feeds her but you. And only one she has to prove anything to is you. She sounds like a cool little dog

Always hard to know what pups gonna be from pics or even early actions, but that one with the white blaze on its nose stands out to me, but something tells me the one in the back with its tail up over its back in the second pick is gonna be pretty rough lol

Man, I’m just looking at some of the news from last 24hours on YouTube which is how I get news because I don’t own a tv. I’m seeing what has happened and the stories are heartbreaking. My heart goes out to the families impacted and still searching. What a tragedy!

I’m up Angola rd in rural west feliciana parish, tunica hills area. I’ll be trapped in on the property couple more days. But that’s to be expected when these deeply wooded steep hills freeze driveway over. We got probably 5”

I’m working pitbull dogs I always took it to be a reference of the legnth of back making the dog slightly more of a rectangle than a square when looked at front the side?

With a little reflection, maybe you are referring to a more narrow v-chest when viewed from the front?
It would also make sense sense lungs are just bags that expand and contract, which would expand and deflate the chest width extremely when looking from a front view?
Like I say, just learning here…

WoW, please explain what you mean by v-chested in conformational terms, when looking at a dog.
Are we judging that when looking at a dog from the head in front view or from the side view of the chest depth and shape?
I understand the barrel chested dog, which you see from the head on front view quite easily but is not seen from the side view aspect.
Most bulldogs are judged that the chest depth, conformationally, should be at the level of the front elbows, which can be seen from both the side and front view.
But, and I may be wrong, but inthe bulldog type breeds, conformation judges like them to fit in a an imaginary square box when judged from the side view. Meaning as tall at the shoulders as they are long when viewed from the side with a proportional neck length.
The lungs run parallel to the spine anatomically so the longer the back the more stretched out physically the the chest cavity and the more room anatomically for deeper lungs.
Just making sure we are on the same page?
Or are you referring to a v-chest when viewed from the side, with a huge v and depth of the chest when looking at say coursing breeds like greyhounds or wolfhounds , whippets etc, which have a comparatively narrow chest than bulldogs when viewed from the from view.
I think we are talkin the same thing. But I’m try to drill down and learn here…

I concur with you Thomas. I like longer necked dogs, I think that goes along with being a longer backed dog as well… I think both add up to more mobility and a longer backed dog has more ‘spring’ in their movements and use that to get more ‘punch’ and ‘reach’ on the fly if they need to rapidly change direction. I have have shorter necked and backed dogs that had plenty of muscle to spare but while they look very impressive and contain a lot of straight line power, sort of like a cannonball. They lack needed maneuverability. Most were more one out dogs that didn’t recover as well. A longer back goes along with bigger lung capacity imo.

+++ just rambling, but I don’t do, nor ever will, Facebook instagram twitter or any of that. I like the board format where there is just the enthusiasts that really do and live the stuff the stuff they do with the dogs.
