i think he got to where he wasnt sure of the truth in all the breedings he had done,lol. when i talked to kershner he offered to sell me the gabc, and he also said if i wanted to pay for a new pedigree he would send me one for patches with the real dogs he used. in retrospect, i really should have paid for the ped. could you imagine the mileage that would have gotten on message boards.

More than that would have helped you plan your breedings better.  |

Another breeder of hybrids I would trust is Matt Boyd. Matt is one of the most scientific breeders i know of. He does extensive testing of his dogs before breeding them and in my opinion is as honest as they come.

dino, i reffered folks to matt for many years.i think he has now finally quit breeding abs. although matt did produce some dogs very capable of being good catchdogs most of his breedings over the years were focused on producing a dog too large and bully to be a good woods dog. at one point matt was checking some of his dogs on hogs also. i will say ive seen alot of hybreds that function very well as catchdogs. i know other than folks weve allready spoke of in ths thread that alot more folks have used hybreds than straight standard dogs on hogs when it comes to registered abs. this is just due to the sheer number of hybreds.one name that should have popped out early in this thread was mitch allison. don mathews, lem miller , the diaz brothers in fla and alot of others come to mind also

Mitch mostly dogs pits and curs now. Has bulldogs occasionally. Only had one Am bulldog last time I was there. Underdog carries some of Mitch's old blood mixed into his stuff.

Don't know if George is doing anything with the dogs now, but Ariel is still putting them in the woods.

Don't know much about American bulldogs, may I ask what the difference is between a hybrid and a performance bred Am bulldog?

Well, there is some disagreement there. Some folks believe that some hybirds (a mix of Johnson, Scott, Painter) can be a performance dog and function as a catch dog, etc. The term usually refers to pure Scott or Painter dogs with no Johnson blood which many believe afffects wind and heat tolerance. I have seen plenty of hybrids that could perform (catch, etc). Usually ABs are broken down by bully type such as Johnson line and Performance dogs. There is some blurring depending on the indivual dogs abillity. At least that is my take on it. |
