    @Bulldoghistorian do you recall the NKK crew and their spokesman Dr.Death called about John Wayne or the Joe Montana dog ( lost on which dog it was) while in America.
    They eyed the black & tan from Sparks and Randy.
    It never came around which is a pity. I remember we'd convo about that decades ago.

    I have visited many yards in the past and the men who put the most effort into feeding (what I know of) the animals were Danny Burton and BMC.

    After a memorable visit to BMC yard, I was left with a few impressions.
    1/ What he fed his dogs I'd have ate myself.
    2/ I was totally out my league.
    3/ Never drink rum and try talking sense on bulldogs.

    Drinking and talking bulldogs can get out of hand. Those may be words to live by.

    I have seen the times where I thought I was doing primo work on my yard and with my dogs. Like hours per day making sure everything was just perfect only to visit another yard and feel completely inadequate. Like everything, there are levels involved.

    When things are not as you thought they were or "think one way and then see another" those are the memories that really stick.

    I have mentioned the yard of Eli dogs that were all put to the test early and often. His yard was immaculate. He worked for a living and he spent $$$$ feeding his dogs. One of the jokes was that he ate loaf bread and sardines the majority of the week so he could feed his dogs 'to that next level'. When I first met him he did not give that impression. When I heard how hard he was on the dogs I would have never thought or expected such levels of commitment.

    Funny how things work like that.

    Books, magazines and conversations like these is truly what make this breed so special.

    People from all over the world just come together and totaly understands what eachother and the ups/downs.. Can't really see the same love and passion among other breeds, tho there are some really passionate dogmen in other breeds also.

    Sportsmanship and respect for each other is what creates bonds of friendship. Happy and proud to have played a modest role in the game when it was at its peak. Consider myself more of an eternal student instead of a graduated professional dog man because there are guys walking around with a lot more knowledge than me. Appreciate your words and the pleasure was mutual. Wish you happiness health and keep up the good work. Say hello to those old guys and wish them all the best from me.

    Around 40 years ago I learned the meaning of real gameness in bulldogs and witnessed the honour and integrity of many in the game who owned them..
    It's my considered opinion that @F.W.K. and @Bulldoghistorian rank among the best of the best.. World class dogmen!
