Now I understand those wrinkles...when they took the leg off, they ended up with extra skin.

Neat pic of the older shar pei.

I LOVE the foundation Dobes. Just love them. I love the more refined type we have now, as well - they are gorgeous - but the older style Dobes still have my heart. They're cute in such a scruffy, sharp way. Maya and Saga really remind me of them in their looks.

Now thats a good looking rottie right there. The main thing that sticks out to me is the head piece and muzzle. Much less mastiff looking than today, but I gotta say... I like it!

Just because I love pitties. Heres a few amazing looking ones of today.

Got muscle?

Those are REAL APBTs.

The boxer surprised me also. They changed quite a bit.

Most roughies today have a Sunnybank dog in their pedigree.

In the US, that would be roughs AND smooths. My dogs trace back to several Alstead dogs, which are behind many of the Sunnybank dogs.
