The American Bulldog

We have a male American Bulldog aged four. He is a calm, gentle, handsome dog who tolerates our two small dogs very well. He literally lets them walk all over him. He is also an excellent watch dog but he warms to some strangers a bit too easily. A good travel dog which helps me as I do have to travel at night when I am on call. His size alone is a deterent. Very clean and has moderate tolerance to water. I don't know how he acts around children because we don't have any yet. Somewhat a picky eater. Very affectionate and quiet. He has plenty of room to play and run and any dog his size needs it. This is not a good apartment dog in that it is not good for them. Oh yes, and an American Bulldog is not a pitbull. Dakota Kahn

It's sad that Pit Bulls and anything that even vaguely resembling them have been demonized. Sounds like you've got a great companion. Elf | Talk 22:23, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

To Elf

Yes it is sad. Pitbulls can be sweet and gentle too. It is people who don't have any regard for them that torment them and use them as staus symbols that make them dangerous. Our baby boy is like a child to us. We are very fortunate to have our babies, Monica, Amber and Bernie. Dakota.

I would love a Pitbull, but to get one i would need a dangerous animals liscence, which is hard to get and even harder to keep. stupid UK law! I like american bulldogs too, but you dont see them over here, so thats out of the window too! Perhaps i should move to america!Tekana | Talk 19:04, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
Did not know that Pits are required dangerous license in the UK. Some cities and counties of states in the US ban them also. American bulldogs are not common here. The pups are expensive also. We did not buy our boy (we would not buy or sell any being), he was a rescue dog as a 3 months old pup. His owner died suddenly and his widow allowed us to adopt him. American Bulldogs are sometimes used in Switzerland as police dogs and in some other parts of the world also.
