welp, I'm too old to remember, and lost count!!!! :eek:

29 and holding still works, tho, but not too bad for 99, huh?!!!!;)

j/k

I work for a vet, full time, and have been working with animals for a number of years. I acquired my first APBT back in the 80's. Switched to rotts for 14 years and decided to go back to APBT's almost 4 years ago. I have two kids. LOVE, love, love motorcycles, and have owned my own since 1999. Love tattoos and LOVE music. My glass is always half full. and I hate mean people!!!:D

I'm 25 and a full time student at a local university. Currently, I am working as an assistant manager at a clothing store. I am currently trying to get a portrait business and music production business together. So, all of that and working with the dog is how I spend my time.


Some examples of my artwork: I'll have some better pictures uploaded soon. They are fairly old. http://www.freewebs.com/realbuckportraits

And some of my music. It is just beats. I'm not a rapper. I just started this site on myspace music so it doesnt have many views or friends yet. So add me if you are on myspace.

Im 21 and am a part time student. Currently a foreman for a electrical buisness. I use to be real into car audio, but have had to put that on a hold since i bought 2 older vechicles i wish to restore. Put their restoration on hold a while since i bought my 3rd bulldog. So in a nut shell, those 4 things are my hobbys.

Most of my spare time is spent with them. I also like to spend time with family and friends. I like to do outdoor stuff, whether it be hanging out by the pool, taking the dogs for a hike up the mountain, or just taking them down to the creek for fishing and play time in the water. :D

Well, I am an ex career criminal. Drugs, theif, all the stuff that goes along with it. Built scaffolds for awhile, weld,..construction, now, I have a wonderful wife, have been with her for 12 years, have two wonderful little girls whom I love with my very breath. I am a minister. I go to jails and prisons and do street ministry. I visit churches as an evangelist, basically I told God that if He'd allow me to walk in His ways, I'd give Him my whole life. He pulled the needle out of my arm, kept His part of the deal, so I am bound and determined to keep mine. Have had bulldogs for along time, and believe them to be the greatest dog in the world, ever. I am 37 years old. I like to ride my bike, V-twin. I make custom bike parts in my shop, paint, etc. That's pretty fun. Used to work on cars, but like the bikes allot better. I played in rock band for a while, but when I gave my life to Jesus, I laid that part of my life down, and now when I play and sing, it is strictly Jesus music. So my life is Jesus, my family, the ministry, then the bulldogs,bikes, and anything else. The music goes with Jesus, as I worship Him with it.

I'm 31, I don't have kids and I've always worked with animals. My father kept GR CH Art at our house for a year and fell in love with the old dog so from then on he only had Art stuff. I got my first pit at eight and at thirteen I moved down to Louisiana with my aunt so I could work on a major dogman's yard. This was one of two real mentors I've been lucky enough to have. At seventeen I moved up to North Carolina to work for my other mentor. At nineteen I moved back up to Michigan and was taught how to train guard dogs by a close friend. The next year I moved to Italy and trained dogs for the Italian government for ten years (mostly Neos and Corsos). I moved back last year and my grandfather died and gave me 13 horses. My entire life I've had GR CH Art dogs but three years ago I decided to try something different and now I have two Jeep/Chinaman bitches, a Art bitch and pups from her crossed with Chinaman blood. I also have 15 horses, 2 barn cats, and if I don't find her owner, a GSD/Border Collie mix.

Wow, that's just about my whole life story. Sorry about that. :o

I just turned 20 and work as a groomer. I am a full time student in college. I own a brindle APBT rescue bitch named Sweetie and a rescue brindle rottiXbullmastiffXlab something or other named Chedda'. I also own 3 cats (all rescues), 8 rats, a tarantula, a ball python, a sugar glider and a goldfish. My life revolves around my dogs if I am not at school or work. I like to spend a lot of time in the woods hiking and exploring with the dogs. I am doing a lot of shutzhund style obedience with Sweetie right now, hoping to get her BH and her AD sometime in the future. I am fascinated by aggression and behaviour problem dogs (how I ended up with both of mine) and really enjoy a challenge. I plan to breed and train dogs for personal protection/police K9 someday and specialize in aggression.

I am a 24, and 5 foot 3 of dynomite!! ;) haha j/k
I work FT, and i am starting my own business. I have a bunch of dogs (mostly Carver/Jeep stuff with a splash of RedBoy or whatever else that works), MissKitty the barn cat (a bunch of her rivals like to come and sleep in the barn as well), about 25 horses, and a 185 pound child (HAHA). I am a busy girl!!
I have loved the APBT since i was 16. I originally thought that "Pit Bulls" were large thick dogs with cropped ears (Gasp!! i know lol). I was lucky and never got one of these dogs. Through my own research, and meeting good people accidentaly, i came to know the true bulldog :) I got bit by the bug BAD! But thats a good thing ;) The mutts were given to friends so i can still see them (as i have a soft spot for all animals). I still have my original bulldog that started it all though, he will never leave no matter what :) (he had even been stolen from me, and i got him back!)

Anyway, thats ME :)
