So was spike I haven't been to t's house n ten years but I will bet there's a big black male in the kennels that will kill and eat you.

BH who had bullyson was a crossdressing sexual deviant known to swindle and cheat. I would have tried to kill him too if I was stuck in a Cadillac with a naked cowboy in a pink Stetson hat.

I know a man who walked honeybunch alot . he said she walked till she got bored then tried to kill you that's probably why there's nothing that made it off honeybunch and zebo.

Most of it I believe is the man who raised them.These weren't meant to be pets or part of your family.They are performance animals.I wouldn't let my daughter ride a race horse because she'd get hurt.

I raised a dog once who never tried to bite me but needed watching when excited.I sent him to the mountains to be hunted as I was working 2 jobs at the time.One day after being at his new home he jumped up while excited and bit one of this boys nipples off.I told him to send him back.He did and the dog was fine here so I sent him to Texas.He bit that boy on the leg while playing with a flirtpole.I brought him home and he lived out his days with no more problems but didn't get hunted as much as he should of.

 

If you don't run the show somebody will be running you to the hospital.Just my opinion as I have seen it happen.

 

 

 

 

Bit off subject but what you said about BH, who owned Bullyson reminded me of my first time in Florida, near 30 years ago. Was travelling round the state by Greyhound bus. Met an elderly couple after he recognised my accent from being stationed near Liverpool during the war. They lived on and looked after about 6 houses owned by millionaire 'snowbirds' in the middle of a golf course and invited me to stay in one for a few days. Which i did.

Thing was, it was in the middle of nowhere and about an hours walk to a 7/11 to grab beer & food.

So i'm leaving the 7/11 one morning loaded up and just as i'm crossing the forcourt a big pink Cadillac convertable with cowhorns on the grill pulls in. The driver looked like that John Coffey from the film Green Mile but with a leather waistcoat and stetson. In the passenger seat sat one mean lookin buckskin pitbull...

So off i goes walking back down the road an about a mile in i hear the chug of a motor goin slow behind me... I f***ing knew before i seen it and then them cowhorns came into view alongside me. Them caddys are big but it seemed like an age before that pitbull came up, mean and glareing.

"You wanna ride" said John Coffey " You can ride front with me, the dawg can go in the back?"

And that was it, i lept the rail and ran down that embankment, tossing all i'd bought. Got skinned and scratched to f**k, got part lost and took about an extra hour to get back BUT my arse was still intact..!!

would be mate, akita  more of fighting  dog than gsd,  like say if you could get a breed as vocal gsd , but power of these bandog types, you got great guard/ watch dog ,  like we said on here before  mate, get a jack or  pat, kennel next to a bandog or rottie  i reckon  that might do it, either way you one that make noise, and one that can back the noise up lol

What happens when robbers come feed dogs something still take everything
they want to be on somewhere no dog stop them unless dog can be heard barking they will get on

You're a smart man.Never trust a man in a Cadillac.Coincidentally Cadillac builds hearses in America also.

Best and most intelligent guard dog I've seen was a neighbour's GSD x Dingo,the dog would kill you for sure.It was bigger than a shepherd with a tight coat,yellow with a black saddle.The second best was a mates Shepherd/kelpie x pit.I think a lot has got to do with their upbringing and the owner's personalities and lifestyle,more than the breeding.The owner of the dingo cross was a very intelligent and dangerous person.

spot on mate, your 100% right regards  upbringing and  owner   personalitie, just for a example  , now my big dog Buck the 1x gsd x grey  ,daft with people and good with  other dogs, like said on here loads of times.Now his litter brother , another big dog, kept with terrier, and spaniels  , the owner  does keeper work, uses the brother more as watch dog, and takes him  by the shoots. now this dog deff shows lot more guarding instinct   than Buck, because the kept with other dogs that guard, Buck kept with old bryn who dont guard, so Buck just followed  suit , plus my dogs look at me as there pack leader ,  then old bryn was top dog, and still is i think  lol.

The pics I've seen of Buck,you wouldn't go into your yard just because he looks the part.I've said before when my pit crosses go I'd like a dual purpose dog but finding a shepherd /greyhound over here would be more than difficult.If I got something like him and raised it with my crazy Parsons I reckon it might work out alright,but I'd have to get a bitch.

Do those pig dogs guard?

The two pit crosses I have now I bred as guards and don't hunt them.When we used to have pig dogs our dogs would guard.Seen some blokes dog's with no guarding interest,I believe with new regulations that pig dogs need to be submissive to ALL people which is probably a good rule as no one would want to run into a pack of human aggressive mastiff/bull terriers when picking mushrooms in the pine forest, lol.

I never owned a pigdog lol In hog dogs the only ones known for guarding traits is catahoulas.Half of catahoulas are scared of their own shadow.The other half will eat you and ask for seconds.This is the reason we never kept many of them.They are inconsistent though but good hunters.I hunted everything from groundhog to wild boar with em  .Those crazy Cajuns who invented them expected them to put supper on the table every night and guard the place while they slept.

This explains catahoulas better than anything if y'all can understand they speak half English half french .

The catahoulas are becoming more popular here as pig dogs,the hunters say some bail and some lug pigs.They sound like a cattle dog.hound cross.

[Rickshaw swami 4,123]

I believe you right.Some look like short haired Australian shepherds.Some look like blue bull lurchers.The best one my father had look like a blue merle whippet.She was a good baydog hogdog but wouldn't hunt with strangers.If you brought a couple strangers she would go hide under the nearest tree.They either was like this or good guard dogs not much in between.I blame it on the voodoo them Cajuns believe in.

Some good hunting dogs are weird,my mate had two English Mastiff/dane crosses that would crush pig's heads but were shit scared of little dogs and would run and cower if one got in the yard.He found them an embarrassment,I thought it was probably better they acted like that.He parted with them mainly as they killed most pigs and he liked to knife them,or so he says,I would have liked to own them if I knew he was selling them.
