Wasn't that blind billy went blind during the heat of a match?

does this look like a bird dog?

I could have swore that blind billy was blind.. after reading floyd's interview he says he was blind his last match.

but thast just one dog,.. theres many who win and do well blind!

 

^^no that was aimed at the post by 3MTA3 ....(birddog)
just being a wise ass

 

oh LOL.

after thinking and looking.... most of the dogs 1900-1940's were white. so many look like my bitch.

some people may have crossed a mutt in there obviosly from looking at the original post LOL...

but to say a cirtain color comes from a diff breed is a bit off,.. thats like sayin the tri colors come from a rotti lol.

 

We can SAY what we want, but this is a RECORDED ACCOUNT of another dog (in this case bird dog) being bred in. Oh, but so many of us have them, so they just CAN'T be mixed ... right?

As it stands now, ticked is considered dominant to non-ticked. There are three different gene combinations found in the T (ticking) series. Those are TT (heavily ticked) Tt (lightly ticked) & tt (no ticking). So that means a ticked dog HAS to have at least one ticked parent.

I researched Rattler's pedigree & ironically he has Williams dogs in his pedigree. Irony? I doubt it. lol.

Blessings ...

EDIT: forgot to add - the tri color DOES come from a different breed. The Staffs & later APBTs inherited it from their Manchester Terrier ancestors. It's just considered a "natural" color in our breed today b/c it was infused before breed type was set.

 

Well, since the topic came up...... Doesn't get more tick than this. I heard that some registry's do not recognize tick pitbulls.

Some like this line, some don't. I've personally had something off this dog and seen some that were good dogs.

 

Yes, I heard Yoda was a good dog & has produced good dogs. His owners are also real nice people. Rattler was also a real deal bulldog. All the more reason one should not judge a bulldog by it's color!

But that still does not change the fact there was a documented outcoss to a ticked breed (bird dog).

Blessings ...

 

This one got a little ticking on him
ONLINE PEDIGREES :: [59857] :: Devil Dog's Steel (7XW)

 

Colors come from everywhere in our breed. The blue came from the Blue Poll, tan points from the Manchester Terrier, ticking from the bird dogs. Boston Terriers have also been bred in, as have Bull Terriers, American Bulldogs & according to the Alapaha Blue Blood Bulldog Club of American the ABBB was used "extensively" in the creation of the APBT (this would introduce the merle allele if that were true).

Even those who have "pure" lines often have incorrect pedigrees. That is why I laugh when I see those Carver bred dogs that come up blue. That is a throwback to the AST stuff he used to use from Peggy Harper!

I don't see how anyone could look down their nose at anyone else b/c I doubt there is a bulldog owner out there who doesn't have a question mark in the pedigrees of his or her dogs somewhere!

sorry I dont agree,.. colbys dogs were WHITE AND TICKED too.

my dog isnt crossed with a "bird dog" LMFAO.

once again great thread... and this particular topic has been on my mind for about the last three months since ive been home my lil brother actually has a ticked dog... first time i've seen one ive seen alot of pied dogs but never ticked like her... it seems as if everyone has there own opinion... *laughing* but if you tell my lil brother thats a bird dog he'd lose his mind i told him it was part dalmation...*laughing* he loves this little dog though...

 

There is a difference between pigment spots of the skin (as seen above) & truly ticked dogs like Yoda & the bullies pictured here.

If those of you who have ticked dogs want to assert your dog doesn't have bird dog in it, that's OK. But once again I would like to point out that ticking is dominant. That means a ticked dog MUST have one ticked parent. HOWEVER ... I will say ticking only shows up on white fur & CAN be hidden by a colored coat. BUT even if the dogs has a colored coat the ticking WILL show up on any white areas of the dog (i.e. white chest, white paws, etc.).

You guys & gals are more than welcome to your own opinions about your dogs. But we have a written account of the crossing occurring & the genetics (ticking is dominant) don't lie. The ticked dogs may not have got it from the old bird dog cross. Or maybe they did. Who knows.

Blessings ...

 

My Dog Keila is white with fawn coloring and lots and lots of fawn colored spots!!

 

that is definately not a catahoula bulldog, they are much more american bulldog shaped and bred to be working dogs, not lawn art.

 

Damn just because you have merle mutts dont call out every other color for being mixed LOL
