These pups are looking for hunting homes. Currently 7 weeks old with 2 rounds of vaccine and 3 rounds of workings. NKC registered.

I have two questions. One is why did y'all choose the AB's instead of another breed or crosses? Two what do y'all look for or expect from a "catch dog"?

I hunted with Dogos for a couple of years. The good ones were good but the cull rate was too high. I had a quality APBT that was really nice, but I prefer a bigger dog. I fell into the ABs, they suited me. As far as what I expect from a catchdog... biddable, with good wind and athleticism. Temperament-can be handled and take corrections from anyone in the hunting party. Catch and stay hooked until I remove him. To me, that’s just the basic requirements.

Yes, they are a few of us that are still using them. Some of us have been using them for several years and are several generations in breeding ABs for catchdogs

Do you currently use them? If so what line/lines did you start with and do you have pictures of them doing bulldog work?

Yes, I’m still using them. Lines: BamaBoy thru True Grit and JEL, Stover, Hines, old Painter/Scott, and Florida Panhandle dogs. Yes I have pictures. As a side note, Tico has been a friend of mine for 17-18 years now

Hello scott. We have spoken in the past back in July 2019. You told me about about 3 potential studs you were going to breed to that young gyp. I got your information through Tico. Most of my bulldogs have Peach in their ped. Dont know if you remember speaking to me. My name is Tony.

Tony, just waiting on the gyp to come in. You are first on the list for that breeding

Sorry for the dumb question but what magazine do you speak of? I love reading the old magazine. So much knowledge is lost with every generation that leaves us. I have hoards of old magazines wish I had the room to go threw them all and organize the way I would like..... hell before you know it it will be hard to find an all white dog the way I see some headed now. I just wish you could go to a show ring and those dogs be the same one we use to get our job done but they are really 2 separate worlds no matter how good a sales men the breeder is.

TNT what are you using ?? If he doesn’t work out it’s not a big deal for me because he is doing exactly what I got him for and the misses loves him to death. I myself have always been curious how many of these big breeders still have what a bulldog is suppose to be or have they shifted so much to the show ring most are no longer what they should be. So he is my first in trying to figure that out and if not well I reckon the misses has one hell of an expensive lap dog.  I have a few things I already don’t like about him and something I was also curious about there over all health in general or is the pool so small in some types those issues are going to be there.

IMO, the gene pool in ABs isn’t that small in either type. Not all pedigrees are accurate. Other breeds have been added by some but it is not reflected on the pedigree itself.

It takes more than just crossing two dogs to make a “bloodline”. The vast majority have no clue of what a specific “bloodline” entails.

3 of the pups at 9 weeks old

Put her up until you can get something off her. I learned the hard way...one never got bred and a couple of others didn't get bred enough...

I rotate wormers. Start at 2 weeks old and worm them once a week. I usually start them on soaked kibble and powdered goats milk at 4 weeks and wean them at 5-6 weeks. They get neopar at 4 weeks and a 5 way at 6 weeks. Then alternate those vaccines every 2 weeks until 12 weeks old

I put zero stock in a papered dog versus non papered. But the pedigree of the dog is important to me. Be it hand written or from a registry, it can provide useful knowledge when attempting to make better dogs. If you have hands on experience with the dogs before him, then you are familiar with the dogs pedigree at least to that extent.
To me the pedigree is just a piece of the puzzle to go along with the performance requirements, temperament, etc.
I hope you find the gyp you're looking for...it's a shame when you have a good dog and can't get any pups from them.

So with that being said what ever a paper might tell you it will never tell u all these things 


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What that pedigree might tell you is the likelihood of him reproducing those traits, undesirable traits that he may not be expressing but are in the genetics, etc.

10-4 Cody might have one for ya. I'll let you know if it comes available.
