Speaking of Carver from all my old friends that knew Carver personal and there was more than a few. There is one old old pictular personal friend of mine that knew him well and what was going on back in those days and was in the mix and ran with all these guys . This is how it was explained to me about Carver.
Anyone that knows anything about Bulldog history knows that Earl Tudor was the man plain and simple he was the light of day and the dark of nite so to speak the Man of the bulldog world and still the man even in death !
Now Tudor was a dogman and there was not many dogs that was let off his yard and if they were, from what I was told you paid the price and he never let anything out that was better than what he had . This is how he made a lot of his money. The dogs he had he worked and used himself they were not dogs to just look at and sit on chains .
Well as it was told to me as Earl Tudor got up in his older years he could not take care of all his dogs like he use to and some dogs started slipping threw the cracks , some were stolen I was told and they just filtered away as he got older and then died. D.B was a great friend to Tudor and from what I have been told Tudor looked upon him as nearly a son and Earl gave D.B his start in dogs at a very young age. Some of the dogs D.B. got as one would expect .
Now the others slipped threw the cracks and crevises as one would expect and others I was told were stolen and more than a few people benifitted from Tudors death other wise nobody would have ever got there hands on these dogs.
Carver was one that knew Tudor and he knew were alot of these dogs were and who knows how he got his hands on them am not one to say but after Tudors death Carver ended up with more than a hand full of these Tudor dogs.
As I had said there was more than one that bennifited from Tudors death not only Carver but some of these dogs made there way to R.G , F.B. , Mayfield and a few others all dogmen that went on to be leadgens of their times .
These Tudor dogs were potent as most know Tudors Dibo, Tudors Jeff, Black Widow, Tudors Spike , Tudors Black Jack and many many more they are all in the back of all of Carvers dogs , Boudreax dogs , Greenwoods dogs , Mayfeilds dogs all the great great old breeders and they owe it all to Earl Tudor and what he done to keep that family of dogs all the years that he had them. They were not pedigrees they were dogs and great ones at that .
Back to Carver . Once Carver got his hands on these Tudor dogs he took off like a Tomahawk Missile . Carvers Miss Spike , Carvers or Tudors Black Widow , Arts Missy and it just goes on and on . The same as Boudreax dogs Blind Billy , Boze , Eli , Spook . The same goes for Mayfeild most all of the great dogs from Mayfeild are Tudor dogs , The Greenwood dogs and it just goes on all these great dogs right off all those great Tudor dogs that got scattered when Tudor died .
It all started with Colby importing dogs and the breeders of his time and from there to the Tudor era along with Corvino, Trahan Hinze, Bert Clouse and all those guys in that era and then to the breeders that we all know so much Boudreax, Mayfeild, Maloney , Greenwood, Sorrells and many more of this era .
I know I left a lot out but this is how it was explained to me by a great old dog man of old old times.
