My 2 cents
In reply to: Tina L 's message, "Re: >>sigh<<-Lets hear about temperment" on 10:49:08 05/04/09 Mon

I have purchased my BB from John Blackwell and I have to say I�m very impressed with the temperament. Currently I�m training him for Schutzhund & I�m very happy (like everyone else that I train with) with the clarity exhibited in his training. He is doing all 3 phases very well and if all goes according to plan we should accomplish a Schutzhund 1 before fall of this year.
My boy is a combination of breeding dogs from John & David�s stock. I�ve on more than one occasion been invited down to Dave�s place and was present and as a matter of a fact did the helper work on Gordo during the demo for the local law enforcement. At the time I was a novice helper but I wasn�t really impressed with his bite pressure. It was like He was not really comfortable working in his surroundings. All an all I guess the routine was not a very good one because no one was impressed.
I can be pretty sure that it wasn�t the training because the dog did everything correct but David called it right. Some dogs work better in there backyard. Not to say Gordo is not a good dog but he is just not a special dog (when it comes to working). Norman put down great foundation work and training with Gordo and the mare fact he was able to accomplish a Schutzhund title with him speaks volumes of his training methods and experience.
