Bout Dat Life Bullies – Kennel Interview
State your name, and where your kennel is located.
They call me young ROC, and my kennel is Bout Dat Life Bullies, located in the Cambria Heights section of Queens, New York.
What type of dogs do you breed, and what inspired you to get involved with that particular breed?
I breed American Bully’s. Through selective breeding, we’ve come up with the American Bully. I love their temperament, conformation, and I just believe that they are truly a great breed.
What type of diet do you keep your dogs on throughout the year?
These days i’m using Diamond, that orange bag, it’s a maintenance formula that I believe works great for my dogs.
What is your favorite bloodline?
I like Gottiline, and Razors Edge.
Do you currently show, any of your dogs?
Absolutely. I got involved with the shows a couple years ago. We upset a few of the big shots in the game our first time out. We’ve won a couple of majors. I’m on a good path to champing out my main stud, if I choose to continue showing him.
Looking back at 2014, tell us about one of your most memorable moments in the bully game.
That would be the Halloween Trick or Treat Meet & Greet, that I hosted in my neighborhood last year. We will be promoting this years meet & greet real soon. We had a great turnout last year. The parent come out with the kids and their costumes. We have a bounce house. We take walks thru the neighborhood with the dogs. It’s a great time!
Describe how you would want things, in the bully Commuity, to be 10 years from now.
I would like to see what I grew up seeing. That is more of a open door policy amongst dog men. People were more comfortable sharing knowlege, and more inviting when it came to showing people their kennel, and the proper way of doing things. I feel like that is something that really doesn’t exist as much as it used to.
What other hobbies or interests do you take part in?
Besides my dogs, I like to spend time with my kids. I also enjoy traveling, when I’m not consumed with the day to day dog activities.
What motto do you live by?
The motto I live by is, “If it don’t flow, I don’t go”.
What do you think of Bully Girl magazine?
Bully Girl Magazine seems like the only magazine that is accessible, when it comes to getting the latest information on the bully breed. They are always at the shows helping out and promoting our breed in a positive light. Shout out to them for providing this platform for us to showcase our beautiful dogs.
Tell us about your main stud Huey P. Da Black Panther. (pictured to the right)
This is my main stud, Huey P. Da Black Panther. He’s a little over 4 years old right now. He’s a great dog. I love his temperament, and he produces very nice dogs. I’m not a puppy peddler. I try not to do too many breedings. True dog men only breed to improve the breed, and bring about a trait that can compliment their style of dog, and improve the overall health, not just the look of the dog.
