I got my dog from the guy you are talking about and he has been a real good family dog and working dog. I havent had any issues out of him.
Nothing wrong with that, I am glad he is a good dog. He/she is a nice looking dog, I am not knocking your dogs at all
Somebody was asking the difference. My difference I have been breeding these dogs for temperment and disposition and ability for along time, we called them Amerigo, its my hearts desire because I loved my dogs {how they work , hold, catch, approach a hog) not about making money. In General I love the ABs as a whole breed but most dont/cant be the dog I need day in and day out. there are the exceptions and there are some folks this site that have the FoShizzell of performance working American Bulldogs, I have looked at alot of dogs and I criticize very HARD.
Bottom line at the end of the day I like what I like, I feed it, and I bred it to suit
MY needs and preferences and set standards that hopefully continue to rise with every proven & tested generation, every few years. Hell I have not even bred a white litter in about 3 years, this litter is off my partner on this dog, cause he made a good decision on a great cross, at the right time. IMO
Some folks catch dogs are a dime a dozen . any dog thats catches and holds is good enough for some people, I expect more than just biting a hog.
I have a very very different expectation/ standard of how I want the dog to act, going to a bay, how to approach, where to catch, how to hold, how to behave after and how fast it can get to another hog. I have found I have to raise my own dogs to meet this criteria.
Some people may not believe what I tell you about my dog, My husbands dog behaves different because he works it different, and these dogs are not hard headed bulldogs, these are thinking catch dogs. Thomas cant tell Cotton to let go of the hog. It wont Happen. My dogs come out and walk off with me because the are trainable.
Is this Better than a pit Bull? thats a preference question, the answer for me, yes fior you, probly not
Do most people need this type Dog ? NOPE
Do most people care for this type dog? Nope
Am I going to start a new Breed? Nope
Are these going to be Popular? Gawd I hope not
Why have it ? well if you ever seen one run one down, spin it around you would want one too,
