When
there's a job to be done, the American Bulldog
is more than happy to do it! Descended from
Bulldogs that were developed for illicit sport
in 19th century Britain, the American version of
the breed was used for wrangling cattle on the
early frontier. These tough, sturdy and
versatile dogs were strong enough to hold unruly
hogs and cattle, while agile enough to dodge
hooves and horns. American Bulldogs are
friendly, intelligent and assertive, and require
a strong, experienced hand - as well as a
purpose. They love to work and will do so
diligently. Size and coat color varies; they can
weigh from 60 to 120 pounds and come in white
and white with brindle or tan markings. Early
socialization and obedience training is
essential. |
