Difference between a bulldog and a catch dog...

usually great dogs are bred by great breeders that line breed and inbreed the best of the best or just breed the best to the best...that is my opinion on any working breed that consistently produces good dogs...

I will pick a pup or 2 from a known line of dogs that I like how they look and work any day rather than pick a 1/2 dozen pups from the pound...but if I see one I like in the pound I would gladly take it and try it out...I like a good looking dog that can get it done...

Bo Pugh...it is my opinion that some of the great dogs are very laid back and calm...like their pulse rate is non existent yet you drop the tailgate and they come alive and out hunt every dog all night long and any day of the week...I don't see any reason why a bull dog with those traits won't be the same when it is time to do his job...
