Lol. I never get people's obsession with little lap dogs, which I'm convinced are simply overgrown rats that look like dogs. And what get's me, is that when they start biting people's ankles and ripping up that brand new pair of pants you bought, everyone's like "oh isn't that cute!" No! I't not cute, it's pissing me off! And yes it does help answer my question.

The truth is the dogs we use are bred to do a job that requires close handling in excited situations. The dogs that are bred in city's are bred to look mean and be scary. Most of the dogs breed in the city would have a short life on a hunters yard. [/quote] This is true! My pit gyp will back away if another dog shows any aggression at all she knows it is not allowed! No exceptions!

I don't let mine get outa hand but I do let them be bulldogs....I would rather have to rein one in and tone him/her down than try and get one to be something it ain't never gonna do. All my bulldogs are good with my kids/other dogs etc. some are a little high srung when young but like I said...tone them down a little and the calmness does come with age and use. I do have a few that will not be so friendly with strangers at the house but I'm quite ok with that. A dude I know was hunting with me a couple weeks ago and my 5 yo was climbing around on the bulldog in the truck and he said "wow, I can't belive that dog don't bother her" ....my reply was "he had better not"..

Golly gee whiz folks. I think he's just a dude who doesn't know about our sport yet, but wants to learn. Don't quite have to be a conspiracy. Even if the president of PETA came on this site with a profile pic of Ru-Pual banging Michael Jackson on a Dennis Rodman skin rug, we ain't got nothin to worry about as long as we hog hunters keep the best foot forward and the gritty stuff private. ( like stories about killing a hog with a stick and your bare hands ) Or a flashlight? Lol

But hey, if you remember, I didn't go around saying that about myself, I'm just so bad that word got out.

I work on handle from a young age , I'm working with a new one now , she never left my side for over a month , I took her to work , backhoes , boats , swimming , jack hammers , parks , ball park , kids , lots of dogs we don't know , introduced her to my other 4 , they all run together for exercise , most bulldogs will catch so this is not the important part , handle is the important stuff , there teeth ain't ready anyway till a year or more so the more things you can teach in this time frame the better dog you will have , anything good takes time and work , my male I have didn't see a hog until 20 months old and he's the best I've been around , I'll show them a hog about 4 months or so and see what happens and then it's over for a year and just work on commands and handle , riding on the atv , running at least once a week in a pack setting for a few miles , braking off chickens , cows , letting them know what they are not gonna do , establishing that I'm the pack leader , it takes a lot of work to get a old school pit to this level but when you do you will have a dog like no other , when they do hit what I call the trip factor you will be able to handle this type of animal , to many people think the catching part is the important part but that only takes a few minutes , so the important part is handle and this takes months of showing everything and teaching the donts, if you don't teach these things you will be posting like so many others asking what to do , aggression post out the rear on here , good people bad pack leaders , good dogs with extreme handle takes mucho work , the first months I spend more time with the bulldog than I do my family , but if you do it this way you will have the best dog ever with extreme handle , there's always issues that arise just like kids , but if you don't teach your kid right what do you have , pretty much the world we are living in , JMO , I WISH YOU THE BEST OF LUCK , OH YEH I also pray for my dogs , anything is possible threw Jesus Christ. God bless
