Lol 😂 . I was impressed today. She kept up with Laurel all day. They ran miles today. She will sleep well tonight.

I got it from Lowe’s. It’s called a rebar pin

Huh?

I haven’t considered anything other than the SBT before but I am becoming more and more open to other things. A Johnson dog or Hybrid dog would possibly be an option, Olde English Bulldog I would consider too as long as muzzle and structure is good. A friend of mine mentioned to me that a redbone coonhound might work and I’ve considered more of a baying type dog so it’s something I would consider.

Mine will do the same except ours don’t typically go in public. They go off the land but not in social environments. They will deter any threats man or animal but I need them to be more mild mannered around our livestock and poultry. It’s hard to balance the prey drive and “backbone” aspect of it while getting them to just be “protective” of our animals.

@@jamesholbrook7785 - 👍🏻 Thank you

Thanks man 👍🏻

Most Bulldog operations breed prey drive and the dog lives on a chain. The chain constantly builds frustration and builds on the prey drive so when they go use the dog to catch it does it’s job and they believe they are successful. Then they end up losing dogs left and right and chalk it up to the dog being “game”. I chalk it up to the dog being dumb and I mean no disrespect when saying that but every living being has to have some degree of self preservation. Now if the dog is working to save me or family then I have to eat crow and say that’s something I’d want the dog to do. Dogs just don’t have the capability to reason and determine a situation the way we do. From what I gather and what I’ve been told the dogs of the past could be around livestock and then also go catch when needed. The dogs I’ve owned just want to catch and kill everything they see.

@@prideofthesouthlandkennels Have also had issues with self preservation lmao like chill bro you ain’t getting a 10k acl surgery

@darrensanimalsreptilesfish30 - lol 😂 right

I appreciate the input and agree with everything you said. I had too many dogs before and couldn’t give them the one on one time they needed although I was out there for hours everyday after work with them, but there is no way most of them dogs would’ve ever been what I wanted. If there first instinct is too kill every animal they see then you can NOT back them off enough to get them to where I wanted. That was my fault though because I bought the wrong dogs. Also, I have tweaked my desire of what I want my dogs to do once I was injured. I just can’t get around like I used to so I don’t want to be catching with my dogs. I also know that this cross is potentially going in the wrong direction but I have to breed what I’ve seen works. There is another potential cross that I will consider but it’ll be down the road some time. I don’t necessarily care about the “looks or phenotype” of my dogs other than I want them to resemble a Bulldog if that’s what you mean. As far as it taking a lot of time and dedication, I don’t see it taking anymore time than it would’ve took with the American Bulldogs. I also want to add that the Staffordshire Bull Terrier is not just a terrier like some of the other terriers, they have Bulldog in them. People always run with that last word in their name and forget about the one before. He’s from a show line of dogs that have been bred by a family that grew up on a farm. If there is any Staffordshire Bull Terrier in the United States that could be used for this type of breeding it’s from this family of dogs. I do appreciate the support over the years and I’m hoping this breeding can prove all the people that say it won’t work wrong, BUT I know there is potential for failure and I’m not guaranteeing anything to anyone. If everyone in history didn’t do what they wanted to do out of fear of failure then where would be as a society? Thanks brother 👍🏻

@@jimcostantino6244 - so you give me a herding dog and a bird dog. That’s what I should get to protect my farm and family?

@@prideofthesouthlandkennels I can speak on Labs because I've had a few They will definitely protect your family. They will do whatever you train them for. Mentioned Boarder collie because of what you have on your farm and you seem to want a smaller dog than you got ?

@jimcostantino6244 - yea I get that, border collies are great herders but they don’t live with the sheep because they’ll always want to move them. I want a Bulldog, Bulldogs have a different demeanor about them than those breeds you mentioned. I have a buddy of mine that has a Lab and it went through and killed every single one of his chickens. Dogs these days in general aren’t bred for work. They’re just bred to be bred. LGD breeders nowadays are telling buyers the dogs aren’t ready to work until 2 years old. That wasn’t the case 25 years ago. My dogs aren’t too far from what I want. We’re on verge of a breakthrough so I’m hoping this cross gives me that. If not I’ll try something else.

Thanks brother I appreciate the kind words. It’s definitely been a journey. We’re just off to the next phase of it.

$1000 but none available at this point. Litter planned for 2025.

👍🏻 I’ll go check it.

Yes sir all is well. Hope you are good too my friend 👍🏻🙏🏻.

Thank you for the help brother 🙏🏻

Happy to be helpful.

Thank you brother

@@prideofthesouthlandkennels yes you are a brother indeed. My wife wants a future offspring from Grimm.

He’s a good one my friend. He’s had an impact on us. I’m thinking we’re going to be able make it happen this time🤞🏻

@@lionchild999 😂👍🏻

@@joshriel8017 they’re great dogs for sure.

Thank you for the support 👍🏻

Form follows function. I’ll go whichever route the dogs take me. I’m only concerned with the behavior of the dogs 1st and foremost. My goal is to have dogs with good bone density I don’t want fragile dogs. SBT have scissor bites and American Bulldogs have underbites, reverse scissor bites and we’ve produced some with scissor bites so I only expect the bites to improve but anything that I have now is fine which is 1/4 inch underbite to scissor bite.

Great question by the way though 👍🏻

@prideofthesouthlandkennels if your concerned about behavior then why change a good thing? Couldn't you breed a small AB to another small AB and then skip the Staff?

@@Hammer1978 - the American Bulldog in general does not behave the way I’m looking for. I have produced some good dogs that work for me but now I’m at a dead end with what I have and have available to breed to. Everything that has worked for me is off the same sire. I need an outcross and I’m not willing to pay $1500 for another American Bulldog that may potentially have health issues like I’ve ran into, be extremely prey driven like I’ve ran into or be 95-105lbs like I’ve ran into. I could not find all three of those main things from one American Bulldog or one American Bulldog breeder. At most I get two of the three. So my question to you is why would I go to another American Bulldog when I have seen more times than not that it’s not what I’m looking for when I have a SBT that checks all three boxes? The American Bulldog today is not pure. Bruce Huffmaster at Think about it Farms is working diligently on improving the percentages through DNA testing. When I tested my dogs and seen the results I decided purity didn’t matter because it’s already not there and I started looking at dogs as types instead of breeds. Meaning I see Bulldogs as Bulldogs I see Hounds as Hounds. The SBT may have terrier in it but it behaves the way I’d like my Bulldogs to behave and it’s smaller which is what I want. No disrespect at all by me saying this because I don’t believe your question is being malicious and it’s just out of curiosity but when me and my family are the ones dealing with the dogs on a daily basis that are not working for us then it’s our decision to make these types of decisions. If it’s not working then it’s crazy to continue trying to force it to work. I parted ways with way more dogs than ever actually worked for me. No sense in going back down the road I just traveled down. It’s time to try a different route. This route may not work either but I can at-least say I have a group of dogs currently that works so that’s what I’m running with. 👍🏻🙏🏻

@prideofthesouthlandkennels that makes the most sense. I knew there was a much deeper reason behind what your doing then the video showed. I whole heartily agree with your direction. I love the idea since I have a corgi female and she's a great size for us. I still want one of your dogs, hopefully Bully more than SBT
