Rare Breed Mastiff Discussions / Re: Ambullneo Mastiff
« on: February 06, 2007, 01:02:36 pm »
This is what I found!! I would be very careful!
They are not like an EM at all! A much, much harder temperament. If you are not experienced with hard dogs this is not the breed for you.
Ambullneo Mastiff
Origin:
The Ambullneo Mastiff is a fairly new breed, started in the early 1980's.
Its origin is from three types of mastiffs and three types of bulldogs. The Ambullneo Mastiff was specifically bred to be a family/property guardian and companion/family dog.
The Ambullneo Mastiff also excells in weight pulling, tracking, obedience, and schutzhund.
Description:
The Ambullneo Mastiff is a very large, powerful yet graceful dog. Muscular and athletic for short bursts of speed, along with a conformation built for endurance.
It has a broad, boxy head with some wrinkling. Its muzzle should be one-third the length of its whole head. Ears are triangular and are not erect, when left uncropped. Cropped and properly cared for while healing, its ears resemble a large cat's ears.
The teeth should meet in a level or undershot bite.The back should be level between the withers and the loin. The coat is short and thick, varying in color from the rare fawn to a shiny black. Brindles are common, as are white marks on the chests or feet. The tails are set high and reach to the hocks. Like most large dog breeds, their life expectancy is between 10 and 12 years.
Ambullneo Mastiffs are recognized by NKC.
Standards:
Males 25 to 27 inches; 115 to 140 pounds.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Females 24 to 26 inches; 100 to 120 pounds.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Temperament:
The Ambullneo Mastiff was bred to be a guard dog. They will guard their family and property with their life.Experienc ed, quality dog owners are a must for this working dog. Training and socialization will produce an unbelievable dog---- Second to None!
In a time when safety is an uncertainty, even the odds with the best!! Ambullneo Mastiff--the same dog that lets the kids dress him in doll clothes, when alone at home, stands guard because he knows IT'S HIS JOB!!!

Cane Corso Discussions & Pictures / Re: New girl on the block
« on: January 18, 2007, 05:46:14 pm »
Have you done any research on this breed?
How did you decide on a Cane?
Who is your breeder?
Are the parents health tested?proof?
Are they titled?
Are you ready for their temperament?
Health problems?
Costs?
What other breed/s have you owned before?
I am not trying to be difficult, but this breed can be difficult and not for novice dog owners(not saying you are, just stating facts).
I have owned Fila Brasileiros and Dogo Argentinos, so I know my stuff. I have a pit bull now. I have done hunting with my Dogos, I have also shown them and my Filas. I researched both breeds for 4 to 5 yrs before I acquired on. I helped at my breeders facility for 3 yrs before I got my babies. She actually raises both Filas and Dogos!
I would be willing to help you the best I can with any questions or anything else!

Games & Jokes / News Rules for 2007
« on: January 15, 2007, 11:02:23 am »
New Rules for 2007
New Rule: Stop giving me that pop-up ad for classmates.com! There's a reason you don't talk to people for 25 years. Because you don't particularly like them! Besides, I already know what the captain of the football team is doing these days--mowing my lawn.
New Rule: Don't eat anything that's served to you out a window unless you're a seagull. People are acting all shocked that a human finger was found in a bowl of Wendy's chili. Hey, it cost less than a dollar. What did you expect it to contain? Trout?
New Rule: Stop saying that teenage boys who have sex with their hot, blonde teachers are permanently damaged. I have a better description for these kids: lucky bastards.
New Rule: If you need to shave and you still collect baseball cards, you're a dope. If you're a kid, the cards are keep sakes of your idols. If you're a grown man, they're pictures of men.
New Rule: Ladies, leave your eyebrows alone. Here's how much men care about your eyebrows: do you have two of them? Okay, we're done.
New Rule: There's no such thing as flavored water. There's a whole aisle of this crap at the supermarket, water, but without that watery taste. Sorry, but flavored water is called a soft drink. You want flavored water? Pour some Jack Daniels over ice and let it melt. That's your flavored water.
New Rule: Stop screwing with old people. Target is introducing a redesigned pill bottle that's square, with a bigger label. And the top is now the bottom. And by the time grandpa figures out how to open it, his @ss will be in the morgue. Congratulation s, Target, you just solved the Social Security crisis.
New Rule: The more complicated the Starbucks order, the bigger the bunghole. If you walk into a Starbucks and order a "decaf grande half-soy, half-low fat, iced vanilla, double-shot, gin gerbread cappuccino, extra dry, light ice, with one sweet-n'-Low, and one NutraSweet," ooh, you're a moron.
New Rule: I'm not the cashier! By the time I look up from sliding my card, entering my PIN number, pressing "Enter," verifying the amount, deciding, no, I don't want cash back, and pressing "Enter" again, the kid who is supposed to be ringing me up is standing there eating my Almond Joy.
New Rule: Just because your tattoo has Chinese characters in it doesn't make you spiritual. It's right above the crack of your butt. And it translates to "beef with broccoli." The last time you did anything spiritual, you were praying to God you weren't pregnant. You're not spiritual. You're just high.
New Rule: Competitive eating isn' t a sport. It's one of the seven deadly sins. ESPN recently televised the U.S. Open of Competitive Eating, because watching those athletes at the poker table was just too damned ex citing. What's next, competitive farting? Oh wait. They're already doing that. It's called "The Howard Stern Show."
New Rule: I don't need a bigger mega M&Ms. If I'm extra hungry for M&Ms, I'll go nuts and eat two.
New Rule: If you're going to insist on making movies based on crappy, old television shows, then you have to give everyone in the Cineplex a remote so we can see what's playing on the other screens. Let's remember the reason something was a television show in the first place is that the idea wasn't good enough to be a movie.
New Rule: No more gift registries. You know, it used to be just for weddings. Now it's for babies and new homes and graduations from rehab. Picking out the stuff you want and having other people buy it for you isn't gift giving, it's the white people version of looting.
New Rule: and this one is long overdue: No more bathroom attendants. After I zip up, some guy is offering me a towel and a mint like I just had sex with George Michael. I can't even tell if he's supposed to be there, or just some freak with a fetish. I don't want to be on your web cam, dude. I just want to wash my hands.
New Rule: When I ask how old your toddler is, I don't need to know in months. "27 Months." "He's two," will do just fine. He's not a cheese. And I didn't really care in the first place.
New Rule: If you ever hope to be a credible adult and want a job that pays better than minimum wage, then for God's sake don't pierce or tattoo every available piece of flesh. If so, then plan your future around saying" Do you want fries with that?"

Pit Bull Discussions & Pictures / Re: NEED ADVICE - looking for a second dog to go with our pittbull
« on: January 12, 2007, 06:09:25 pm »Way overdue, but thanks for the advice. We did find a cute little girl, Daisy. We think she's a weimaraner/pittbull mix.Âsorry for the problems with Daisy.
We really love her. Unfortunately we are now looking for a new home for her. About 2 weeks after we had her she attacked Casper. She has since attacked him 5 times. They are pretty ugle fights, and I am afraid one day I won't be able to break them up. Her triggers are food - not dog food just people food, and when she's on lease.
We found that if she't not on a lease (and no food around) she is great with other dogs. Loves them. If she's on a leash we just never know if she'll be nice or turn into Kujo. Anytime I have food,the dogs have to be outside. The problem is, I can't constantly worry each time I come in with groceries, or go to the kitchen for a snack.
She is great with people! (half the time she's great with dogs) and really good with little kids. She's a lover, always licking, and wagging her tail. She loves playing ball. She sits, stay, comes anytime you call her, always anxious to please. We think she needs a single dog home.
Anyway, if anyone has any advice to solve her issues, or find a good home, let me know. I refuse to take her to a shelter, so she's with us until we figure it out.
I would really recommend that you go on pitbullforum.c om, the people there have LOTS of pit bull experience and are awesome.
I have a pit bull myself and she is severely dog aggressive. So, I am unable to get another dog. Most multiple dog homes that include pit bulls and/or pit bull mixes have to seperate the dogs and rotate. Especially when any kind of food is involved. They usually have to be monitored very closely in every other situation.
Always remember that they are a dog fighting breed. It doesn't matter if they are mixed or pure, it is there. It may not be obvious now but you may never know when it will show up.
I sincerely hope that I do not sound negative or that I am belittling you! I am just very passionate about this breed. And I try to help and sometimes come off a little rude. NOT my intention at all!
Please visit that site and good luck!

Games & Jokes / How to prepare for a puppy!
« on: January 12, 2007, 11:10:23 am »
HOW TO PREPARE FOR A PUPPY
*Pour cold apple juice on the carpet in several places and walk around barefoot
in the dark.
*Wear a sock to work that has had the toes shredded by a blender.
*Immediately upon waking, stand outside in the rain and dark saying, "be a good
puppy and go potty-hurry up now- come on, let's go!
*Cover all your best suits with dog hair. Dark suits must have white and light
suits must have dark. Also float some hair in your first cup of morning coffee.
*Play catch with a wet tennis ball.
*Run out in the snow in your bare feet to close the gate
*Tip over a basket of clean laundry, scatter clothing all over the floor.
*Leave your underwear on the living room floor, because that is where the dog
will drag it anyway (especially when you have company).
*Jump out of your chair shortly before the end of your favorite TV show and run
to the door shouting, "No NO! Do that OUTSIDE!" Miss the end of the program.
*Gouge the leg of the dining room table several times with a screwdriver.
*Put chocolate pudding on the carpet in the morning, and do not try to clean it
up until you return from work that evening.
*Take a warm, cuddly blanket out of the dryer and immediately wrap it around
yourself. This is the feeling you get when your puppy falls asleep on your lap.
