Wobbly Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Band breeds will trash your house, jump on the bed and throw your television out the window, they're reknowned for it, especially the long haired varieties. Wouldn't recommend getting one to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wobbly Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Also band breeds will attract groupies, hordes of squealing, Bieber t-shirted tragics thrusting autograph books at you everytime you venture out into public. Most of us don't want this, but I suspect some, like Aidan might find it image enhancing, which is frankly a big part of the current problem. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixeduppup Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I'm pretty sure all the No Doubt band breeds should be eradicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan3 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Beyond jorts, there is nothing that can further enhance my image. What band breed do I own? You probably haven't heard of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wobbly Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 IDK, but I reckon it's probably a jangly indie pop band breed, with a deplorable taste in assymetrical coat clipping aesthetics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you make your band breed wear jorts I will report you to the RSPCA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan3 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Oh here we go, these band breed threads always end up in insults and threats. Now we just need someone to come in and tell us that all band breeds sound the same then Troy can lock this thread up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You hipster you. Your dog probably has a moustache. And spectacle markings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CityRotty Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Dogo Aregentino's (DA) are popular in Europe and South America. When I was in Europe about 10 years ago I noticed that they are a massive breed and should be handled by experienced owners only. But that goes for a lot of breeds. Wobbly - I know you have already addressed this but I am surprised you met the dog at its level, especially a DA. I never would advise this. These dogs are common in Spain and Italy and are found on country / rural properties such as farms and don't warm up to any stranger in a hurry. I doubt of many in AUS and NZ, (I have never seen one of these or Presa Canario in Aus) as they are usually American Bulldogs, misjudged as DA. Still, a very striking and confident breed. No mucking around there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It strikes me that pic is a really great illustration of the case for educating the general populace about dog behaviour. XD Returning to our regular scheduled programming: I present the case against dubious assymetrical clipping aesthetics amongst certain band breeds.

blakkjackal Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Did anyone else in SA see the ad in today's Advertiser about the Argentinian Mastiff pups? I think there were 5, going for about a grand each if I remember correctly. Apparently good guards and hog dogs, would really like to know how legit these dogs are as the ad stated that they're purebred... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwp4me Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Just took the time to look into this thread. First, I thought you meant banned breed. No idea here, is this what you call a band breed?? Information, Facts & Origins of the Bandog Breed (Bandogge) The Bandog can claim its ancestry to the Molosser Dogs - It is not a pure bred dog and has descended from the cross-breeding of Pit Bulls, Mastiffs and Rottweilers. The literal meaning of the Bandog is taken from Band + dog giving Bound dog which refers to large and fierce dog, such as mastiffs, which were kept chained or tied up until they were released for guard dog duties or in some cases for fighting and bull and bear baiting. The Bandog has therefore classified as one of the Working Dog Group which we go on to describe in detail in the section at the bottom of this page. As there is not a specific breed standard Bandog is not Registered by the AKC (American Kennel Club) and is therefore in the category of dogs termed Unrecognised & Rare Breeds. Name Facts and Dog Names: This dog's name is often referred to as the American Bandogge or Ban Dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bullaroo Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 Most gorgeous dog, would love to own one. Probably the only reason I would move to America. It's not the dog. Shame some people feel the need to treat these animals with such disrespect Makes it hard for us dog lovers who just love them for what they are.
