It's the American Temperament Test Society, Inc. Where they offer a temperament test according to each breeds standard.
It was fun and actually very easy. Because other then basic training you don't really train for it.
All dogs go through 7 stations and 7 judges recorded their reactions and together they give a pass or fail.
Everyone with a working dog should easily be able to do this.

Love her markings! Very pretty. Congrats again!!
You said she is an American Bulldog? I like her looks versus the ones you normally see.

Yes she is what we call a standard or "Scott type" as opposed at the Bully or "Johnson Type" Really she is a hybred of those lines with strong Scott type, longer muzzle, less wide in the front. The guy i got her from in Miami hunts hogs and a lot of the dogs behind her are the West Coast schtuzhund lines.

Very nice. I like her.
There was an Am. Bulldog competing in the WDC this weekend - blew everyone away on OB, got a 93, then was unfortunately DQ'ed for not outting in protection. :( Too bad, I was kinda rooting for him - not every day you see one!

By chance remember the dog's name? Or the handler?
Yeah some times they get a little crazy and forget it's a decoy and not a hog!
Too bad because there are some really nice dog working in protection sports now.
Where was the trial?

Wow, she is nothing like the Am bulldogs we see in the UK. So I am guessing we see the Johnson type. Quite heavy, jowly and square. Much bigger.
Like your girl, she looks really athletic and fit. Congrats BTW!

I'm assuming it was the WDC and Bryan Hendricks w/ Old Glory's Awful Pain.

What Midgie said!
I took pictures. Not sure what he got on tracking, but he really wowed everyone in OB. Very nice!

Yes Abby, your more likely to see the Johnson type though i do see a lot of Germans buying the hybred or performance types.
She is rather "pitty" in looks but next to a real pit bull she doesn't really look like one either. She's a funny little dog.
I'm trying to get some pix of her doing the meter jump with the dumbell. Since she is about 23" she looks really impressive flying over it.
Best of luck to Bryan and Pain next time.
