None of my bulldogs (hate that outdated term 'pits') are slow, short, and certainly not fat heat intolerant meatheads. Nothing but classic old family strain bulldogs on this here yard. You must be thinkin about them 'American Bully' kinda dogs.
I use "pits" as a general term... How outsiders view them. Blake's Jane and my Baus I label either as a bulldog which is still general, or I say what they really are American Pit Bull Terrier APBT, and gamey too boot! Lol! No offense just clarification.
NP man, NP. You know what I mean then
Yes ma'am I do... and I couldn't agree more!
and I like this post cause I get where you are going Pigrig... but I think that the APBTs
are some of the most drive no quit dogs I've ever seen on the ground, WHEN THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING... now not just any pit is going to get the job done, but with the right handle, training, and experience I think they're one of the best dogs for the job. Not only because of their pain tolerence, but like someone else said... they want to please their owners and won't quit even staring death in the face. I do not think a real APBT can be improved upon, but it can be changed to suit different styles of hunting. For instance some of these folks that like a good RCD, or just rough dogs. Cross a good bulldog to a strike dog and you may come up with some hog stopping suckers!!! or you may just end up with a bunch of torn up/dead dogs... IMO it's a roll of the dice until you do it over and over till you find what you are lookin' for; but then why do that when you can probably go find a dog that will work instead of bringin a bunch of puppies into the world that may not make the cut. JMO and to each his/her own.
Good hunting this weekend everyone!
