Hi,
what is everyone's opinion on the aussie bulldog?

RokkabulldogCy · 02-08-2010, 07:51 PM

From your pics i can only see that they are or seem to be bigger are there any differences - or what are the differences from the standard EB as it appears EBs are teh closest comparison?

Look beautiful though

I had never heard of such a thing as an assie bulldog, just EB's from Australia.

Eeeeeexactly. Just another "rare" "special" bulldog as far as I'm concerned. No real purpose to them.

"breeders" of Aussie Bulldogs here in Melbourne advertise their bulldogs as {direct quote}

"Our dogs require no health testing as Aussie Bulldogs are bred specifically to minimise health issues. They have longer snouts and require no extra care in the hot weather. Folds in the skin are shallow and require no daily wiping."

I see about 5 things wrong in that three sentences.

I will have no problems with ABs when I see a litter bred to standard, registered, health and temperment tested, shown and established as a registered, pedigree breed.
Sadly all I see here are ill-bred Staffies passed off as a Ebs, Aussie bulldogs passed off as EBs, and EBs passed off as pitbulls.
My town is so badly educated regarding dog breeds, health testing, temperment testing, and breeding standards.

Aussie bulldogs have no english bulldog in them they were bred for a healthier version of the british bulldog and i am sick of everybody putting the breed down saying they are mongruels when they are not they're such beautiful and placid animals and i love them too bits! =)

I wasn't being sarcastic, I truly never heard of them, but had heard of people importing EB's from Australia. I don't have any problems with crossbreeds, and work with them and the people who love them often enough that I would never put one down. Is that your aussie BD in your avatar - I think it's adorable.

From your intro post, I didn't really get an answer:

Those questions are totally applicable here, though.

You say you are breeding for a healthier dog, so what health tests are done to ensure that health? What physical activities are they involved in that they are winning titles in as a result of this better health? Are you still keeping them true to breed standards, ie winning conformation shows?

I don't understand why you asked what people thought of Aussie Bulldogs if you didn't want to know. People are just giving opinions. I have personally never heard of them until I saw a few on here. I would also like to know the difference between them and EBs and what makes them healthier.
