Statement
of Organization The WABA was formed by a group of
dedicated, knowledgeable individuals with the common belief that the American
Bulldog is a breed of exceptional working ability. It has become increasingly
evident that unless serious efforts are made to preserve and cultivate these
abilities, the American Bulldog is destined to join the ranks of numerous
other breeds whose original purpose and abilities have been reduced to
legend. The WABA is the result of an attempt to maintain, as well as improve
the working qualities of this truly unique breed. This will be accomplished
by offering official titles to dogs that pass a test. This test is designed
to effectively demonstrate a dog’s temperament, character and physical
abilities while requiring the least amount of training possible. Similar
tests have been used successfully for decades in other working breeds and are
in fact mandatory in many instances. It is amongst stock that has been tested
through these various organizations that serious working dog enthusiasts make
their purchases and design their breeding programs. The
WABA is currently offering seven tests, with additional tests planned for the
future. These tests include the BST and BST2 (Breed Suitability Tests) and
the The
WABA has working relationships with the ABA, This
is an opportunity for owners, breeders and enthusiasts to demonstrate their
dogs abilities, earn meaningful recognition and acknowledgement thereof,
acquire working titles and contribute to the future of the working American
Bulldog. |
