So it's 400.00 for essentially a mixed breed/mutt.
I hope he goes to a good home but never understood why when someone can't keep an animal such as a dog they want a set price out of the dog. GL with it..
if you say so, Craig...will not debate....but zilch Neo in his trace.....( visibly, I mean ) how much does he weigh, question mark ( have no q mark on keyboard, sorry )

I fully agree with you Cichla, but it no mut..this is a so called breed created in the US crossing pits with neapolitan mastiffs and are awesome dogs ( as all molossoid breeds are, for me )

Ahh flowerhorn of the dog world. All mastiff type dogs are awesome to me as well. Won't ever own any other kind than the large breeds. Looks very bull dog'ish and/or pit bull'ish. Beautiful dog either way. Guess my main concern is price turns alot of people away from dogs that are a little older.
Again hope someone loving picks him up.
Not to derail as this is a beautiful dog...if I already didnt have all my APBTs I would drive upstate for this dog.
but definately not a mutt! breeding of bandogs goes as far back as 1586 England,but John Swinford D.V.M., began a breeding program, which was ultimately supposed to produce the greatest of all protection dogs. Though breeders of Bandogs today disagree on just what breeds went into Swinford's original breeding scheme, the consensus is that it was 50% American Pit Bull Terrier and 50% Neapolitan Mastiff. Unfortunately, Swinford died at an early age and his Bandog was never perfected or recognized as a purebred.
here is the history if you are interested:
