Juan,

Here's a North American deja vous. This picture was taken on a fishing trip about 25 years ago. This dogs loyalty was like none I have ever known as a pet owner. She would have, without a doubt, given her life for me.

Mary i love your old photos ,thanks ,tomorrow ill go to hunt with my dogos ,and i have 3 labs AFRICA,RHODY,AND MALU ,they help me a lot with the doves ,pidgeons and ducks killed by clients ,i added one more lab to help Africa .Ihope to see you here someday.Juan

Juan,

I believe I enjoy the posted photo's of your dogs and hunts as much as you do mine. I am looking forward to seeing a picture of your new Malu. It has been fun watching Rhody grow, on this site.

It only feels fitting to post this one old picture while the Olympics are under way.

Below is two time Olympic Gold Medal winner, Chuck Vinci, with his dog Coco whom I had bred to my white bitch you see in most pictures. Not only is his dog a fine specimen of the breed, Chuck was an unbelievable gentle, powerhouse of a guy.





He won a gold medal at the 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne, and again at the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome.
Charles Vinci won gold medals at the 1955 and 1959 Pan American games. He received silver medals in the 1955 and 1958 world championships.
During his career Vinci set 12 world records in the bantamweight class, between 1955 and 1960. He held records in snatch, in clean and jerk and in press, as well as in total (3).

In closing, thank you Juan and yes, you will see us there someday. We talk of it from time to time. Maybe in a few years when we are settled in the new shop and my last is off to college.

Kindest regards,
Mary

Mary. Don't know how I missed this thread before...good photos and he looks to be one hell of a guy. The dogs, are they American Bulldogs?
Argentina and Juan are waiting for you...I am going back in March....Sept. 22 I will have a stop over in Phx at the airport, but not long enough to hit town. One of these days.....

Juan, I will look for that book.

Bill, American Pit Bull Terriers. Looking forward to pictures and a full report upon your return from Scotland. Are you taking your Kilt? Steve and Willy may want to see those man knees...

No. For certain anatomical reasons I best not. And I do not want to unduly excite Willy and Steve.
