Dogos and American Bulldogs

If you are wondering what is the right dog for you, this is the place to be. In this introductory forum we talk about topics such as breed vs. mix, size, age, grooming, breeders, shelters, rescues as well as requirements for exercise, space and care. No question is too silly here. This particular forum is for getting and giving helpful, nice advice. It is definitely not a forum for criticizing someone else's opinion, knowledge or advice. This forum is all about tail wagging and learning.

I was like you, Mulder, until I started fostering ABs. I am bananas for them. I think with them you need to look past the larger populous and to less "showy" (not meaning this in a show dog sense, 'natch) breeders, but those who breed for a good all 'arounder. Now I totally get it. This is a breed that lives and breathes for their handler. They are a little Bullmastiff-y in that they have a lot of sensitivity. Not a breed to sign on for unless he is your "main guy," for they really live for that.

They are more stable than Dogos, who are probably a little set for those who appreciate a higher drive and more sharpness.

Recommendations? I'll admit I've never broken by back looking for ABs, but I have spent a little time digging around, and have not run across these more... "modest" (shall we say) folks.

I'll put my feelers out Mulder, but I saw a male from Sanders that made me fall off my chair. They are PPD people in GA, but don't know enough to say one way or the other. I know they are PPD people. Will try to find out more and get some good leads for you, but I had that name in my head, turned up MEIR who I know people are using a great deal.

Found THIS series of working pics also. So that's like impressive wink laugh out loud I can find out more and will let you know way to go
