CH Homer vs. CH Jeep (what people dont know!!)

Discussion in 'APBT History' started by rayne_terror03, Jan 30, 2009.

  1. In the Ch Homer vs. Ch Jeep match, things that most people dont know.

    Homer fought Jeep at 42#, that wasnt his weight! He fought his first fight at 44# and his fourth at 45#.

    I loaned him to Big Brad who was a good friend of mine, and he loaned him to Billy Stepp the owner of GRCH Angus who was a natural 42# dog.

    Ch Homer was 5yrs old, and through four matches. Dogs never go down in weight as they grow older, they go up! Pulling CH Homer to 42# took all his strength and bite. Dont forget he killed all four dogs he matched into, none made it to the hour!

    They drove Homer from Ohio to southern Georgia and didnt stop to give him water. When they got to Georgia they put him on the scales and he weighed 40 1/2#, he dehydrated that bad!

    It was a good one untill later on in the fight when Jeep started to make some bad moves(he stood over Homer and looked around!). Crenshaw grabbed Jeep up as he was the top dog and asked for a scratch. Homer made a game attempt but he was to far gone to complete his scratch. It was then Jeep's turn to scratch to win. Jeep went all the way across and he stopped about one foot from Homer. The boy that was handling Homer was a young boy and he shook Homer and that inticed Jeep to complete his scratch to win.

    They screwed Homer up that bad and he still went 3hrs and 45minutes without a turn, but Jeep did turn! If they were the same size dogs, if Jeep and Homer fought at both of their correct weights, Homer would have bit Jeep in Half

    If thats what you want to belive. They do that before they hang up the phone! I heard the same story from some one that was there that night . To be honest he made it sound alot worse and said homer should have never been in there that night and he said the same thing his words "yall would never have all this jeep shit around if homer would have been right" I did not see it but I heard this many years ago.

    As big of a match as this was set to be(even if it was a replacement for Angus+Jeep), it is hard to believe that there would have been an inexperienced handler for Homer - a lot of prestige and likely $ was riding on that match.

    Angus never quit to Ruby that is flat out lie .Angus and Ruby got into a yard accident and thats why they had to replace him with homer . Homer only had 3wks of work on him had that been Angus in there there would have been no more Jeep . With all that was said in here you see why Crenshaw never bred a gyp back to Jeep

  17. LOL Marty, do not have to take it so serious every time someone talks bad about Jeep or any of his decendants including KA. This is a forum, let the folks speculate all they want. Facts are facts and one of them is that Jeep did produce.:cool:

    sir just want to talk based on jeep dogs in the islands. usually linebred jeep dogs here coming from ch whiskey were very game but had low abilty and mouth when tested on a hog or during an actual hunt. indian rock threw better dogs usually when mixed with carver or redboy jocko. those two crosses produced two very good champions. i've had several jeep dogs and they were very game but again low abilty and no mouth. just sharing from experience and jmho. dont want to offend anyone here running jeep blood
