I dont care for it much, its probably safe to say its my least next to white :lol: My hubby is like that...He had his heart set on getting a fawn Boxer...he always said he thought brindles were ugly and "mean looking".Ironic that we ended up with one (I begged and pleaded) :lol: ....of course NOW he's changed his tune,and he thinks his brindle boy is the greatest thing :wink: Quote
deepseasnake Posted October 4, 2002 Author Posted October 4, 2002 I wouldnt not get a dog cuz it was brindle, but if I could choose I would choose fawn, but if a little puppy face asked me take him home I dont think I could turn it down based on the fact it was brindle. kinda like you :lol: Quote
deepseasnake Posted October 4, 2002 Author Posted October 4, 2002 dogo/presa canarios can be brindle and they look really good in brindle the only brindle dog I really like, did you say fila brasilios? they are to Quote
Rowie-the-Pooh Posted October 4, 2002 Posted October 4, 2002 :o OK...have got to post yet ANOTHER Q..... :roll: Ok, here it goes....The ABs in the pics at the site Deep showed us were REALLY different from the ones on this site.... http://www.templarbulldogs.com/ Ok, so whats the deal? Are those like working dogs or are those the "pet Quality"? Cuz I mean LOOK at the difference from the ones on the breeder's site... and the ones on the site Deep posted!!!!!!!!! :o Anyway...sorry...I just don't get it!!!! :oops: Quote
deepseasnake Posted October 4, 2002 Author Posted October 4, 2002 okay try this, this is Gracie she is a "performance" AB here is Loydd he is a "johnson" AB both pics were from http://www.operationk9rescue.com does this help at all? the other thing is fawn is one of the rarer colors for ABs I actually never heard of fawn until this site, so that might make things confusing as well. do guys know anything about Dogue De Bordeuxs? I thought they were short like APBT but they are BIG like 120-140 range, really good lookin dogs too, awsome color! not as cool as Chester though :D Quote

deepseasnake Posted October 4, 2002 Author Posted October 4, 2002 really? I didnt know that, its been many years since I saw that movie, but yeah I can kinda remember hooch looking like that! cool dogs! you know that site you posted with chester? is there any other sites with those dogs on it? cuz that page had NO information on the dogs just a little paragraph on themselves and then a phone number, I want to know more about them!

Smooshie Posted October 4, 2002 Posted October 4, 2002 Deep, try: http://www.oldebulldogge.com/con-frame.htm http://www.nationalbulldoggeassoc.com http://www.angelfire.com/va2/victorianbulls/ (check out "OB and OVB standard" sections) also, ask K...maybe she has some more info on them :) Quote
deepseasnake Posted October 5, 2002 Author Posted October 5, 2002 those were good sites but they were mostly normal bulldogs, I want to know about THE GAURDIANS OF HATES THE BIGGGGGGGG BOYS all over 140 pounds kinda thing, are there any of those sites out there? Quote
Smooshie Posted October 5, 2002 Posted October 5, 2002 Unfortunately,other than the one "Hermes" site,I haven't been able to find anyone else that breeds them THAT big.....they're like Tanks with fur :lol: Quote
Smooshie Posted October 5, 2002 Posted October 5, 2002 Ok...I did some more reading and this is what I found out (if anyone knows about this stuff please correct me if I'm misinformed...) From what I gather there are two seperate lines of Olde Bulldogges......the LEAVITT line, and the HERMES line....with the latter being EXTRA large and bulky......soooo Deep, my guess is that if you do a search on "Hermes Bulldogge",or "Hermes Olde Bulldogge" you may find what you're looking for....more websites with double-wide dawgs :wink: Quote
deepseasnake Posted October 5, 2002 Author Posted October 5, 2002 OH YEAH! I'll be back and tell you what I've got! Quote
Rowie-the-Pooh Posted October 6, 2002 Posted October 6, 2002 Thanx for ur help GAIN Deep...NOW I understand....hehe......... Look like relly cute dogs...the "performance" tipe....but i mean just in my opinion....shouldn't they be seperate breeds....or...? I saw TURNER & HOOCH! Deep, youv'e gotta see it before you decide on one! :D THEY DROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o :) Gosh...by the end of the movie I was drooling myelf! :o Quote

Next to Boxers, Bulldogs are my favorite type of dog,and I found an article on these oversized guys in Dogs U.S.A. I have never seen one in person and frankly never knew they even existed,but the idea of a larger version of the English Bulldog (allegedly with fewer health concerns) definately peaked my interest. I love all dogs but have a soft spot for the large breeds (especially bullies). :D Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted November 5, 2002 Posted November 5, 2002 :D I've recently signed on as a volunteer for this org. They are a phenomenal group of people who love and take great care of these dogs (and yes, lots of them are just gorgeous and so, so sweet..wish I could take them all home!). Also, they don't just take in the pretty ones, but dogs with disabilities and/or special needs and make sure they get the best treatment possible. I'd recommend contacting them to see how you may be able to help, or to find out more about them. They often work with folks all over the country to rescue dogs and find great homes for them. www.operationk9rescue.com Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted November 5, 2002 Posted November 5, 2002 My 2 cents. Some of these AB's are very poorly bred, and you can show all the pics you want with ribbons being handed to them, but you really can't tell if it's for working dog competition or conformation. One I could read was a UKC show. and I can tell you this that UKC (NOT UNITED KINGDOM KENNEL CLUB) will and does register anything that even barely resembles a breed. Also, people can say mine are the biggest, and blah, blah, but with all breeds, there is a breed standard that must be adhered to in breeding and showing. Breeding for size can be a very poor breeding healthwise, tempermentwise. Quote
deepseasnake Posted November 5, 2002 Author Posted November 5, 2002 jchid, that sounds like fun, they seem to be a very good place for dogs in need. I wonder do you know an Andrea there? I had emailed her back and forth about some conncerns I had for Sterling the Neo. She was gonna get back to me and ease my mind after she checked up on Sterlings house but I have yet to hear from her. you dont know anything about Sterlings owner Norm, do you? Guest Pat, Do you know ABs pretty well? cuz I have some Qs if you do. I dont understand where you are coming from, the rescue doesnt really have any say in the dogs they get. Quote
