Thinking of showing my brindle boy and wanted to see what the show forum thinks. He is of great lineage and has not been altered nor does he have any health issues as of now. Love him

and was seeing from a couple pics what every1 thinks. I am aware of certain things they will be looking for and he seems to be good overall. I know there is a lot of politics with dogs too and I'm just a nobody wanting to show off their dog but also have some fun. I never really thought he would start winning things left and right or anything... Thanks for the imput

and take him the ring and see how he does. Remember with bulldogs you will probably lose more then you win so just be prepared to have some fun. As Louise said it appears from the photos that he has some nice qualities. Movement also is important.
Just because his parents are champions doesn't mean he will be. Do your breeders show and can they help evaluate him and assist you with your handling skills, training, ring/show knowledge, etc? Maybe a local bulldog club nearby can help you get started?
We all have to start somewhere Michael
the most important thing is that you and your dog enjoy yourselves.
I say give it a go, its a lot of fun and nice to meet like minded people.
Check into the BCA
www.thebca.org
and download a copy of the illustrated standard. This will give you a visual comparison to draw from. He is a nice looking dog.
Perserverance isn't a long race.
It's a series of short races,
ran one after the other.

I'm looking into what it takes now
