"What is there to agree about? Its a fact the pit is an older dog than the AB and the Ab is much older than the dogo. Catching a hog in a pen was part of the AB's original requirement to get papered, this was changed before any of us in America even knew what a dogo was."
Can you show me where that requirement was that the AB catch a hog in a pen to be registered? That's news to me. The AB was first registered around 1970 by the NKC. The Dogo was registered by the FCA in 1964 and by the FCI in 1973. There are many differences in phenotype and temperament in the "breed" American Bulldog due the "vision" of various breeders over the past 40 years. The Johnson dogs are very different from the Performance dogs (Koura, LeClerc, Lichtardt, etc) and both are different from the Painter/Scott type. And then you have the "hybrids". There is a wide variety of strains of AB other than the three mentioned above. The truth is, that when looking at the entire breed...it's still very much a work in progress. So, it is very much a debatable point that the "AB is much older than the Dogo"...
