A site like this is probably no longer necessary and I really don't have the time to keep up with it since we don't have many visitors anymore. It has been fun creating and running this site and we have made many friends because of it. Thank you all for your participation in the site and your contributions to content. Warm regards. Gary

Breeding and genetic modification in dogs raise important ethical questions. Let’s look into some of these considerations:Responsible Breeding Prioritizes Welfare:Ethical breeders prioritize the health and well-being of animals over aesthetics. Breeding for extreme physical traits (like flat-faced dogs) can lead to serious health issues.Responsible...

The home remedy for fleas is garlic. But I don't think it will help with ticks.
I've had nothing but good success with k9 advantage. I works or fleas, ticks, mosquito, and biting flies. It last for 30 days. It's a topical like frontline. It's waterproof.
Must be an old story, but I just read it, what’s your opinion on corn and the likes in dog food? http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/care/corndogfood.htm 'A dog's body cannot process corn properly. It is difficult for them to digest it. Corn is a cheap filler, a starchy energy which serves little to no nutritional value. A lot of it comes out in their waste.'...
No. You can take dogs from state to state. There is not pet passport that I am aware of. My dogs were moved from Virginia to Texas - There are not border crossings etc.
I am sorry you and your dog is going through this difficult situation. Wearing the cone collar is not that bad as many of my dogs have had to wear it for different reasons. Since your dog is loosing its sight - it is probably time to bring him inside for a more mundane lifestyle. It is quite obvious that this dog is very special to you and you will do...
I posted this article some time ago and it is also a very good read. We are in Texas so this is really serious.

Dallas: Texas man who had been missing for months was eaten, bones and all, by his pack of dogs, sheriff's deputies said. Medical examiners said Tuesday that DNA testing determined that pieces of bone recovered from the dogs' feces were those of 57-year-old Freddie Mack, according to the Johnson County Sheriff's Office. https://gulfnews.com/world/americ...
Actually Jess. It is a bit different with dogs. You see for the most part our current crop of dogs are bred to do something.. they herd, retrieve, guard, hunt varmints, protect property and flock, and provide companionship. So my point is that if the need is for a dog to hunt varmints .. get a terrier.. that is what they were bred and developed to do.....
I've often thought about testing my dogs in various situations. Unfortunately, finding the means to is another story. Most of the people who would help me know my dogs and vice versa (they'd probably think it was a big game) :lol:
This is something that I have often thought about and lately I I'm inspired by the user @CuzOfTheDog to start this topic.Here is the premise .. how have you modified your life because of the dog(s)?Your houseYour routinesYour vehiclesYour spending and budget.Eating and home habitsLook forward to hearing a few stories.
Old World Molossus has resurrected one of the ultimate guardian dogs that ever existed and named it the American Molossus. Assuming that the info on their website is correct, this is one phenomenal animal and to be considered by those wanting high-end protection. This is a very large breed that tips the scales near 200 lbs. They were also featured on...

these dogs are very nice,but with limited info,and practicly no dogs in my country i cant say much..They do resemble the johnson bulldog a bit..
From what ive heard there purely working dogs,its nice to see that in a bulldog..

The Pros and Cons of Having Guardian Dogs at HomeHaving a guardian dog can enhance security and companionship, but it also comes with responsibilities. Evaluate your lifestyle, living space, and commitment level before welcoming a furry protector into your home. Each owner must consider their living situation and requirements for the dog and MUST know the...
Is the government trying to stop pet owners from feeding raw pet food? It certainly looks like it. And Answers Pet Food is courageously tackling the issue … head-on. This is big news for dog owners. It’s not just about Answers … it’s about your right to feed your pets a raw diet. Something health officials don’t want you to do. The CDC (Centers for...
Tibetan mastiffs are monstrous dogs that survive high in the mountains, and now we know their ability to thrive in such harsh and low-oxygen environs comes from an extra shot of wolfishness in their genes. Do you believe it?
The other day I was doing some training with EGP Black Beauty and MQH Paul . I built some agility equipment. I decided to get video even though they aren't ready for competition yet. I plan to update the videos as they progress. After creating the video I wanted to have Paul check out EGP Pretty Girl Sasha to see if she was flagging. She wasn't. I...
Hi! I'm not sure I can express my thoughts about this in english, but I'll try.. Since I'm not very familiar with the American Cane I can't see the differences or similarities, but I can tell you about the Corsos I have.

Just in case anyone was wondering about the size of these dog's...in my profile picture is my Boz (RIP) Oz. In that picture, he was 10 months old and weighed 160 lbs. I'm guessing had my buddy not opened the gate to the yard and got hit by a car, he would have been close to 200 lbs. by the time he had finished. I can say from experience, that the...
Looking for some advice. I live in Central Texas where we have more hot days than cold. What medium sized molossers do best in hot weather?
Hi there .. I am interested to learn about the different types of CAS; Central Asia is a vast area with different terrains; for example only: How many types/strains? What are the physical differences between the different types e.g. CAS from the steppes, CAS from the mountains etc? How can the different types be identified? Does 'type' = 'strain'?...
That is indeed a good question. There are just way too many variables to give a clear answer unless we just say the strongest period regardless of size. If that is the case then I would go with the English Mastiff for sheer strength. Not considering stamina, agility, or athleticism. Enter the CO, Kangal, CAO, Bull Mastiff - and the field gets pretty...
Then I have to say Terry you breed a different dog from 2 other Bully Kutta breeders I have spoke to- one from Pakistan and one from India.
Their Bullys can basically only really be handled by one handler- they aren't however as violent as the Gull-dong.
The line got started back in the 1930's in Michigan and is named after a dog Ch.Ruffian who was produced by a Plymouth breeder Floyd Klump but owned by someone else whose name escapes me at the moment. The initial use of Weimaraner blood to produce one of Ch.Ruffian's parents (can't remember whether his dam Dina or his sire Deuce was supposedly 50%...
The word "Shikari' means hunter, so a "shikari kutta" or shikari dog can also be used as a generic term for a hunting dog or hound. Indeed when people from Punjab see pics of my Caravan hound they refer to him as "shikari kutta" and he isnt a boar hound but a pure sighthound, they consider all sighthounds to be shikari kuttas...
My wife and I just recently (2 months ago) purchased a 62.5% boerboel, 12.5% kangal, 12.5% dogo argenino, 12.5% great Dane from Andrew Johnston of olympicdogs.net. He is currently 5 months old and 75 lbs as of yesterday before breakfast. He is best of friends with our 10 pound terrier and loves kids. Just wondering if there are any other owners of a...
Today, the concept of preventive medicine would be laughable if it wasn’t so tragically misguided. Most vets today believe dogs need the following to be healthy: Major surgery to remove their reproductive organs (and the important hormones they control) Vaccines (with ingredients like thimerosal, aluminum, MSG, formaldehyde and foreign animal protein)...
Hi Andreas, This is a very nice article.

Sometimes I get asked about the color of a Caucasian puppy and what they may look like when they grow up. Generally speaking, the color does change some and here is an example with Nayan.
Good post, more perspective is always welcome. Plus, I always love seeing that Neo statue. [quote1320542476=Astibus] In Shars, mastiff blood does not have a positive result. It changes the dog to its core. In recent years, people presumably do it anyway for fighting purposes, but that ain't a Shar anymore. And it shows. [/quote1320542476] The reason...
