Hercules is here!
I finally got my dog Hercules! He is a Victorian Bulldogge that is almost 3 months old and very cute! I would post some pictures here if I knew how? If someone would like to help me with that, I would really appreciate it!
Victorian Bulldogges are a newer breed-about 20 years old. They are a mixture of Bull Mastiff, English Bulldogge, and German Boxer. If you know anything about the old English bulldogge you will know some about the Victorian.
The old bulldogges were bred for "Bull Baiting"-the long-practiced sport in which bully-type dogs were sent to attempt to bait and eventually bring down a
tethered bull. This was one of Englands favorite pass times until it was outlawed
Anyhow, Hercules is adorable and very smart. He will make a great pet and service dog for our family. Hopefully I can show some pictures soon.

Hello and welcome to the forum! Glad to have you!
Yogi, the moderator posted this response to another person asking how to post pics...
"you can post a pic in your post. Instead of hitting "submit" scroll down on the page below your post where it says manage attachments. Click on it and look for the photo on your computer you want to manage and add it to the post.
Then scroll down to the next "submit" box and click it."

Thanks! He is pretty awesome. He will grow to about 85-90 pounds. He isn't hard to train at all. I think he will be a great addition to the family.

My married daughter just recently got a bulldog/boxer mix. I don't know how much alike your dog and hers might be--I'll have to see if she has any pics--If so maybe I will upload them for you to see. Hope you enjoy this forum as much as I do---Maybe not!--It is an obsession for me and I can't go do the things I should be doing like I should of been out gardening about 2 hrs. ago!
See you around.

Hi! Hey! Happy Birthday!
I finally got some pics of my daughter's bulldog/boxer mix. I hadn't seen Mia (the dog) for a long time and sure has changed in looks----Don't think there is any resemblance to your dog at all. In fact I think my daughter may of been fooled on the mix of this dog---Looks to me like some staffie/pitbull in Mia's mix! Wonder if there is any bulldog there at all?! I am surprised that I finally got this pic placed here, lol, not even sure how I did it ---Have 3 other pics to upload but not even sure I can get them here so may try later!
