| == Genealogy == | |||
| It is not an ] (APBT) as it is unrelated to the American Coon Hound or similar breeding. It closely resembles the APBT, albeit smaller with a different head and shorter muzzle and the media vilified the breed. The dog is allegedly pound for pound the strongest canine species{{Citation needed|date=June 2018}}, followed closely by the APBT and then the American Bulldog. The breed is favoured by the ] fraternity due to a lack of fresh contributions to the APBT gene pool as a result of European wide bans.<ref></ref> The majority of Kennel Clubs including the ] have shunned the breed, pushing it further underground rather than assisting with responsible breeding and ownership by the main stream public. | |||
| == Anatomy == | |||

It has no colour restrictions. It weighs in the region of {{Convert|55|lb|}}, similar in size to its later counterpart the English Bull Terrier (EBT) bread by ] in the 1860s reference. | |||
