Hoping for one last bunch of bouncing babies from this wonderful momma before she retires. When I talk about refusing to compromise on temperament, this little lady is as good as it gets. 🥰

Repost.....but again a very important message.
Socialisation is so much more than we realise.
Socialisation is NOT play.
Play is play.
Socialisation is very misunderstood......Enjoy the post.
---------------------------------------
Neutral
A great aim.
I realise this is going to be highly controversial for people that DO have a very social dog...but believe me you are in the minority.

Your dog does NOT need to stop, sniff and meet other dogs when out walking.
Your dog does not need to interact with dogs they do not know.
Dogs do not need to meet other dogs and play at a park.
Dogs do not need to have other dogs invade their space to "sniff each other"........They smelt them half way down the road.

This is also society's fault for perpetuating this myth that ALL dogs must be social and get on with ALL other dogs.

They do not....and for the MAJORITY of dogs they NEVER will.

In fact it is damaging to a dog to expect them to interact with all other dogs.

Neutral is a great aim.

Indifference is great !!!!

Expecting interactions can affect many dogs negatively and is a definite causation of reactivity in dogs. Many highly anxious dogs are encouraged to "play" and meet other dogs.
Your dogs body language may be screaming they are deeply uncomfortable....yet often it is ignored as dogs "should socialise with other dogs".

I am not talking about puppies here as they are usually all social (and should be heavily socialised when young)....this is purely aimed at dogs (though some from 5- 6 months onward). Every dog falls into the social spectrum and the actual number of adult dogs that are TRULY dog social is TINY (around 10 %) ....and if you do have a truly social dog this concept can be difficult to comprehend.

10 % of all dogs are truly social. They enjoy most dogs company.

40 % of all dogs are dog selective. They may only like their own breed, small white dogs, large female dogs etc.

40 % of all dogs are tolerant. They tolerate most dogs but choose only to interact with a select few.

10 % of all dogs are anti ALL dogs (apart from perhaps another family dog).

Where does your dog sit ?
Of course this is an approximate percentage and I encourage you to look up the dog sociability spectrum to see where your dog sits.

This is why being neutral when seeing other dogs should be the goal....not interacting, not sniffing and certainly not accepting every other dog in your dogs space. Accepting that there are other dogs in the world....and that they do NOT have to meet every other dog....and they certainly don't need to meet them in a hyper aroused state.

Dogs naturally become FAR less social as they age. Yet people expect them to friendly to every dog they meet....and for the other dog to be friendly back.
Disinterest/neutrality when other dogs are around can save everyone from SO many issues. Advocate for your dog, you will enhance your bond because your dog can start trusting your decisions more.

Advocate for your dog, stop encouraging your dog that is deeply uncomfortable and barking to calm down and play with their new "friend".
Neutrality is true socialisation.

I guess their feedback on my "enrichment playground" has a clear message. 🤦‍♀️
They did warm up to it eventually!

Little Darla will be available to find her new home soon. She is a 3 month old puppy from our health improvement outcorss program. She is half whippet and half Kinetic bully (She is a Kubota pup). All of her siblings have found their new homes but miss Darla hurt herself trying to climb out of the puppy pen so she got to hang around a bit longer. She will be cleared by a Veterinarian before she is able to go. She is up to date on Vaccines and is subject to our usual adoption process.
She is a very happy and energetic pup who can sleep like a champion. She got her mommas enthusiasm to engage with and focus on her person but she is built very much like a whippet with the lean and athletic structure. She would be a fabulous companion for someone who wants to be active but also have lots of relaxing in the house. Whippets are knows as the "40 mile per hour couch potato" She comes from generationaly healthy bloodlines and has a temperament to die for. Great confidence while remaining submissive and wiling to follow. Very sweet, very loving.
If you or anyone you know is interested in Darla, please reach out and tell us about yourself.
A reasonable adoption fee does apply.

We are in search of the perfect home for Pepper. She is a happy go lucky character with loads of love to give. Healthy, energetic and highly responsive to positive training. She is a medium sized dog. Pepper is healthy, spayed and up to date on vaccines. She is happy and perfectly behaved in a crate but we do also leave her out in the house as well without incident. She loves walks, hiking or is happy to just loung around.
Pepper is best suited for a home with no other female dogs and no small pets or small children.
Previous bull breed experience is preferred but common sense and being dog savvy is really what it boils down to. She does not appreciate dogs she doesn't know in her "bubble" and would not enjoy a dog park. She is a very affectionate girl who will bond strongly to her person and be thrilled everytime she sees you, even if you've been gone for 2 minutes.
If you are interested in Pepper please reach out and tell us a about yourself.
A reasonable adoption fee does apply.

It's that time again. Bubble bath and massage for miss Kubota. She was ready to fall asleep 🥰
For anyone what has been on our waitlist, this is a complete outcorss litter intended to introduce a set of specific traits and genetics for the future. Pups will only be half bully and there may be a couple available.

Pepper is looking for a home!

This little girl is a heart thief. Happy and fun loving with an awesome personality.
She is very sharp when it comes to training with positive reinforcement. Once she knows what you want she gives very enthusiastic, consistent results. Food is life!
She is a 3 year old medium size dog weighing 45lbs.

Seriously, we love this dog.

Any dog that is a candidate for our breeding program, must of course pass several aspects of health and temperaments testing. As wonderful of a dog she is, Pepper does not have the right set of qualities that would offer progressive moves forward with our genetics.

What Pepper needs:

Given that we are a multi dog household, we believe Pepper would be happier as a single dog or with a male only housemate. She is very energetic when she is excited (meal time and squirrels!) but readily relaxes indoors with her people. She absolutely loves kids but we ask that any children in the home be above the age of 8 and more importantly that they are confident and respectful with pets. We are only comfortable letting her live with family members that are able to communicate with her in a way she understands.

To set her up for a safe and balanced life she would thrive in a structured environment with a regular routine.

No dog parks. No doggy daycare. She does not appreciate canine strangers. She also does not always immediately warm up to human strangers and needs new people to positively interact with her upon meeting so that she knows they're ok. Then she will be more than happy to accept pets and butt scratches.
She is clean in the house, rests comfortably and stress free when crated.

Pepper is spayed and up to date on her vaccines. She has had knee surgery on both knees due to torn ACL ligaments. They are now healed and stable and she is able to live a normal lifestyle. It is expected she will continue to develop arthritis in both knees as she ages but will otherwise have normal mobility. Regular low impact exercise (walks) throughout her life will be the best thing you can do for her. Adding an appropriate nutraceutical (fish oil and glucosamine supplement) to her diet is recommended. Or you can feed a joint formula diet.

​

If you think Pepper may be a good fit for your home please reach out to us and tell us about you!

I can't even tell you how excited I am for this litter. So many years behind us to get to this point.
Temperaments that we never compromised on. Extreme and unhealthy bully features we refused to perpetuate.
Setting emotions aside to make the tough calls behind the scenes and only breeding the ones that pass evaluation.
To me this litter marks the beginning of a new phase with the Kinetic Bulldog Project.

This is an O'Klassic Kennels & Kinetic bulldogs partnered breeding.
