AKA - Vinnie:
RIP
Vinnie was born in
quarantine on the 3rd August 2003
He was sadly put to sleep on the
3rd February 2009
at the age of 5 1/2 during
investigative surgery which identified that he had
Cancer of the Spleen which
had already started to spread to other organs.
Vinnie had never had a days
illness before this time, and only showed signs he
was ill by going off certain foods a few days prior
to the surgery.
He was a great personality, fun,
loving, a true bulldog character,
who was much loved by all who met
him, he will be greatly missed.
R.I.P.
Vinnie was out of two great producers of
Titled Working & Conformation American Bulldogs from
the USA:
CH.
Souza’s Koa of Boyd
BST / GDT / CGC / OFA / PH
and
Dual ( A.B.A. & A.B.N.A. ) GR.CH.
Thunderstruck’s Tewa of S.A.B. (AKA - Laverne)
ROM / BST / CGC / OFA / PH.
This is a repeat breeding, the first of which has
produced some high quality dogs including:
Koa's Hat Trick of SAB -
BST / OFA / PH
Green's Airbourne Ranger of S.A.B -
GDT /IDT3 / OFA
&
CH. Dreadnoughts Dutchbelted
of S.A.B.
- GDT / IDT3 / CGC/ PH
Vinnie was born in quarantine in the UK
as his mother GR. CH Laverne was imported in pup
by Dreadnought American Bulldogs
from Souza's American Bulldogs
He has a high prey drive and super confidence and
trainability
coupled with a nice stable
temperament.
He is in training towards
earning his WABA BSt
We are enjoying watching his development.
Vinnie passed his AKC - Canine
Good Citizen (CGC) test in July 06
He passed his Irondog International
GDT test and
placed 2nd in
the Ranked Irondog IDT3
trial gaining
his IDT3 (ranked) title at the HABC
Show in July 07.
Vinnie also won the Fun Tug-of-War
event at the same show.
Vinnie has been very
successful in the show ring,
At 2 years of age Vinnie became an NKC STANDARD
CHAMPION
at 3 years of age Vinnie became an
ABNA STANDARD CHAMPION
making him a dual champion.
Vinnie hips have been certified OFA Good (Prelim)

gene
at the University of Missouri and
his result was NCL Clear.
Vinnie has one daughter from a
