I like a dog to weigh no less then 80 an no bigger then 100, I want a dog with some leg under them that has plent of speed an lungs an some brains, to me their is a difference between being a coward an picking your shot atleast for a rcd/finder holder anyways i belive. That's why i like a cross not a strait pit or bulldog. For example if my dogs get out along way an get cought in a tank an it takes me awhile to get their I want them to be smart enough to let go an not drown which I've seen happen with a strait pit being hunted like this. I also want a dog I can trust around people, kids an other dogs an not have to use a break stick to get off I find it much easier when hunting by myself that once I flip a pig to tie I only have to tap him on the head an say enough an have him leave it alone while I tie it.

Middleton, which one couldn't be trusted with people, kids, and other dogs? Using a break stick isn't the only way to get a full APBT to let go.

noah,
i didnt feel like reading all of the post but in response to the topic, i say breed that dogo to one of your curs. the hardest cur you got. and i think you would have to keep the entire litter, you might only get a few pups that make it, which i think would be worth it, and as far as creating the "line" if you keep all your pups on all your breedings and cull hard, you will set the traits you want, but i imagine your cull rate will vary with every litter. it would be worth it even if you only get two pups out of the first breeding and culled the rest.
do you want to breed the dogo to your curs, or another line?
I've always known I could breed my curs to a catch dog and get better catch dogs... size is the issue however, as I've seen in horses... a draft horse crossed with a smaller horse always seems to produce larger progeny when the larger animal is the female... What I'm after is a larger version of what I already have, my Shiner dog would be the one I would breed, no doubt... but, I will wait for now... find a suitable "big female", that, once proven satisfactorily, I'll cross on a male from my stuff or something similar... |

ok guys. we have had lots of diff. types of cds. all types of build. i agree they have to have brains, But all the other doesnt matter if they aint doing their jobs.
So the best catch dog is a dog that is there holding while we are doing the tyin' !

Noah, I am, by no means, a pro... nor have I had experiance with a ton of CDs. But I do know a good dog when I see one. Blakebh's Jane is one of the best that I've personally seen. IMO, I just think that she is a little small for my liking. Yes she has the wind and drive, but I like more size. My Baus is probably the smartest APBT that I have ever seen. I have a great handle on him, and he took to catching like he had been dreaming about it his whole life or something. After a few times out he started getting into hunting shape, getting his wind, and catching on to what his job was when we are out in the woods. He is not agressive towards humans or dogs at all. I let my 2 year old daughter play with him. When he gets in the woods he is a machine though. Good size about 80lbs and built like a tank, pretty fast but not the fastest, and hits hard as a mack truck. He has jaws o steel, and locks on as well. Plus his drive to be out in the woods hunting is very strong, and he pays attention to what the other dogs are doing. He knows when it is time to load up, and gets excited as all get out! So I like him as an achor, and him AND Jane together make for a good mean team. I'll let blakebh post pics of her, but here is Baus.  |

well I struck out with my last 2 apbt's and they were as good looking as could be found...both about 80 pounds and they were basiclly culls...but I used to run gritty mtn curs that didn't need a catch dog...
For me...I would like to keep 2 dogs in my back yard with 1/4 to 1/8 nigerino and the rest mtn cur...and built more like a hard bodied and leggy mtn cur about 23 or 24 inches at the shoulder...the appearance more like that of an old time mtn cur but with a hint of bulldog in the jaw...I want to see speed, agility, heart, and plenty of natural muscle and power...yet have that refined look. chest not wide, but the loin and the hindquaters are built solid and muscular... but these are strike dogs first and stop dogs second...no need for straight catch dogs...
