I'm just trying to understand something people say when they see my boys.

What do they say ??

Tep is a good looking dog. How's he bred?

[rikdpola]

Cool, I'd like to see it. I'm a fan of Jeep and Nigerino dogs.

Looks aren't everything. I would have to meet the dogs I think. They look quite similar to me in those pictures, except for the color. I do like a dog that's a bit of a challenge ... so long as it's not HA. On the other hand, with a ped, at least you have some idea about how the dog will be health wise. Regardless, "A good dog is where you find it"

That is very true Joe, but I think he was just asking first impressions based on looks. I might not like either, or might love them both based on personality and such, but you cant really tell any of that by pictures alone..

I dont get why they both cant "be around" just because one is severely DA though.. unless I misread..

Who cares who is pedigreed "IF" they are both GOOD dogs?!? Based on looks alone, I like Tep's size and shape better....

I'd really like to see a picture of Imhotep standing in profile before I make that judgement

What do they say ??

Well mind you this was in Jersay before I moved back south.

Omega - some people say he's the pedigreed dog, Tep is the mutt. Omega looks friendly [I think it's cause of his big head and droopy eyes] and he's more standoffish. Tep loves kids.

I keep both males on muzzle but Omega is in harness and a double thick collar while Tep has a harness, collar and the "choke" he has in the photos so Tep's the dog-killer and Omega [who would probably kill if I wasn't in control] is the dog to be arond.

I think I misspoke a tad. Omega is dog aggressive but I am well aware of what sets him off - having grown up amongst my dad's yard dogs - and I usually keep him muzzled for those reasons [also crate & rotate]. I walk the dogs in two sets, Omega by himself as he is sturdier than Tep and I don't want to try wrestling two dogs into behaviour & then Tep and Bella together.

Now the reason why I was curious is because in Jersay - fortunate enough my grandmother had a house so no arguing with landlords, etc - one of the neighbours always had compliments for Omega which as I said is DA and sturdier, and also a bit slower "upstairs" [brain] then Tep while Tep is meant for more stamina, speed, agility and brains but to the neighbours he was the want-to-be pit.

I really didn't read much into it cause I think the chap was a want-to-be gangster / thug... but was just curious I guess if there was some truth. As in which dog is more appealing / pittish.
