OUR DOGS, PAST & PRESENT OUR FEMALES Outback's Vegas Baby of Foster
We imported "Vegas Baby" from Las Vegas in the
U.S. She was bred by Shaun & Melissa Foster, and is out of a sister
of Romeo and Gryffyndogge named "Terra", and their male "Gage",
a littermate to our female, Domani. We chose Vegas because of her coloring,
size, and athleticism. Vegas's coloring does not absorb the heat like
Julietta's dark brindle, she is incredibly quick and agile, has great
endurance, and she is about 72lbs.(33kgs). at just under 2 years of age. We
purposely wanted a bitch that was a little bit smaller than our usual
females, because some of our pups in our last 2 litters have gotten
a bit larger than we like. While a 60+ kg. male is certainly impressive,
we maintain that males weighing from 85 to 105lbs. (39- 48 kgs) are the ideal weight
for the most effective "all-around" performance dogs. We're
expecting "Vegas" to help keep us on the right track in that
regard.. With a Penn Hip score of .37 & .42, her hips rank in the
top 20% of all American Bulldogs in the U.S. Another plus is that she
has tested clear for NCL and Ichthyosis.
Romeo's Julietta of Outback
Romeo's Julietta of Outback is out of our last litter (Romeo/Domani). With her build and size, she looks like a female version of our male Gryffyndogge. She is extremely athletic, and is more along the lines of the working/hunting type of American Bulldog, than the squatter, bullier type. After living here on the Sunshine Coast for the past 3 years, and in the heat of Las Vegas, Nevada for the previous 15, we've learned that the more athletic, standard type dogs handle heat and harsh conditions much better than the bully ones. Because of her large frame and dark brindle coloring, she is heavier than she appears 94lbs.(43 kgs.). At about 1½ years of age, she still has a little "filling out" to do. We are proud to say that she is our first dog to be tested by the Australian OFA, and received a hip certification score of 4 and an elbow score of 0!!! Those scores should easily put her in the top 10% of American Bulldogs in Australia for hip quality. She has also tested "clear" for NCL, but is a carrier of Ichthyosis.
Outback's Domani of Harris. We got Domani as a
pup from our friend Candace. Domani has outstanding structure,
very good endurance, and is great with people. She has higher than average
prey drive, but has never really enjoyed doing bite-work. Domani has
a PennHip score of .46 which is in the top 20%. She also has Catchdog
2 and Working Bulldog 1 titles. Domani is a carrier of NCL, but is a
carrier of Ichthyosis. She has
a very strong constitution to go with her cast iron stomach. She can
be a bit more dog aggressive with strange dogs than we like, but overall
has a stable temperment. She weighs right around Note: Domani has been desexed, and is now happily living in South Australia
