Show me one ?

Show me one modern day pure family Mayfield dog that doesnt look like a typical pure family Mayfield dog ?

As for your " same family different lines " comment ....thats just nonsensical dogs are not automatically related just because they have shared heritage....if you are talking 3 or 4 generations deep then yes but we're talking about 15 odd generations( nearly 75 years ) in todays Mayfield dogs.

4 generations represents 30 individual dogs......15 generations represents around 70,000 individual dogs.....to claim that dogs are the same family just because they have a few common ancestors out of 70,000 dogs is not only plain wrong its totally absurd !

i’m not up on bulldogs mate or mayfield dogs 

i was meaning in general lines still throw out throwback

Not when they're set as a family they dont....thats why they are set as a family so that the genes are predictable.....hence the reason pure family Mayfield dogs 15 generations down the line are near identical in type.

i’ll have a look mate they do breed tight don’t they 

like our black terriers identical really

what i seen in linebred coursing types things pop up now again later on

They dont breed Tosa's for gameness though ,from what im told their rules are completely different to Cajun rules and gameness isnt really necessary...........defeats the whole object of the sport to my mind.

Yes, the traditional bouts, but he did say behind closed doors they match their lightweight Tosa's with cajun rules and proper test them. The bloke imported the first Redboy/Jocko dog in to Japan, Red Chief.

Its been known for many years Mayfield dogs were bred far too tight to the point they suffered inbred suppression and basic staleness as performance dogs.....they're still a useful tool as outcross blood but the tiny minority of people worldwide who still run them pure do so more as a " collectors piece " almost.....kind of like a car enthusiast might keep and polish an old vintage racing car in preference to a modern sports car.

i get that mate but you can get some great dogs outcrossing them tightly inbred dogs as you say 

inbreeding depression in runners be shite skin issues with immune system mites out a hand without the other issues

To my mind the greatest match dogs are often an outcross of 2 inbred lines....masses of hybrid vigour with locked in man made traits that can still tolerate further inbreeding its win win.

Some of the worst inbred damage ive seen produced virtually crippled dogs never mind skin issues !

 

with you i’m thinking i might go tight next time i breed father daughter something i wouldn’t normally do

Perhaps because they got established first before the APBT started arriving in droves? I can't see why anybody starting from scratch would choose to use EBT's over the APBT.

My mrs hunted pigs and ran a chiller for years, she always said pitbulls were too game for pig catching, even the crosses and they would rather fight the pig than work it to get an ear hold. For hunting non dangerous game this wouldn't be a problem. That's the only reason I can see and as I said the English bull is still a much more sought after cross especially with staghounds.

Do you know if this really close breeding causes bad nerves, edginess in the dogs as well?
