I am a Bulldog man with 35 yrs with these dogs and the last thing you will ever see me do is brag on how good they are around other dogs and livestock and such. I have brought a couple down and hunted them and they were very good around other dogs and understood pigs were the target. BUT, there are times when you can't control every variable in the equation. Don't let yourself be fooled into thinking your bulldog won't do this or that because over a lifetime you will get proven wrong at some point. I'm not sayin, don't trust them but be vigilant. 
I agree, ,i believe some of yall trust yalls bulldogs 100% and Im sure they behave nicely..but lets say the neighbors 5 year old kid walks up to the bulldog while his on the chain and grabs his food bowl he mite get his faced licked and nothing happens but it could also be a disaster.

I don't think he was referring to any kind of human aggression in his quoted statement....I believe he was referring to never trusting 100% that in any given situation, a bulldog won't wind up in a dog fight, or hitting a different target (animal wise.) Bulldogs (APBT's as we are now discussing) better NOT be biting a kid that wanders up to their food pail. I have a few, and if any of them ever so much as looked at me or my kids sideways while they were eating that'd be the end of that chapter.

Thank you Ms L

I was gonna say using terms like that is part of the confusion in this thread, but I am glad someone else pointed it out. I don't have pits and I thought it was directed my breed at 1st glance until TreezB pointed it out. Referring to a dog based on its "job" is different than referring to a particular "breed" and we need to be clear here.

When it comes to bulldogs and trust to me it's a fine line. I know bulldogs are not what they show in the news. I know they aren't lassie either. To me one has to respect a bulldog but at the same time demand respect from the dog. HA I will not tolerate I don't care if it could catch an elephant and skin it to. I don't want one that's DA either. Now getting a lil possessive over the kill after stuck don't bother me. They are bulldogs not labs. They come with a personality that has to be learned.

A bad dog is a bad dog I don't care the breed. Once a dog registers that to me it don't live here no more.

In any dog breed you find dogs that will fight other dogs over food or whatever. I've had a few yellow dogs that were bad to the bone the wrong person with the wrong attitude could get one of these and they were as bad as any bulldog around as far as fighting and being mean.

Same here kerreydw, my cur dogs are hugely illtempered towards fighting over food, mating rights and 1, just a plain ole' a$$hole for some reason. I had a yeller that weighed 50lbs soaking wet with a vest on, he piled on a pit that had a 30+lb advantage over the cur. The pit didnt back initiate the fight, but didnt back down either. They both held their own, but that pit was big teddy bear n the only problem with him, he would lick ya to death in excitement before he dared growl at ya.

Amokabs...yes they were a couple of my catch dogs...The dog on the left of screen came off alan scots yard,he is by his "mikey" dog out of "star" and the blue eyed dog on the right came straight out of the hood in dallas tx. Both super high prey drive and I guess just like me they had an appreciation for cosmetic upgrades Wink

Usually with a decent catch dog after you have lead him in to a couple of bays and let him catch a pig or two they know what's up. If he catches a dog while they are working a pig after this you bet he's a cull.but you should know this before you get even close to having the dog in the woods.

I'm always cautious with catch dogs ive had. Especially when my kids are out running around even though I know nothing is prolly going to happen. There is always that thought in the back of my head. In the woods theres always different scenario's that could throw up some situation that the dogs get into it or a catch might nik you or a dog theres no telling in the heat of the moment what could happen. Treat em like a loaded Gun!!
