Thanks, guys, for welcoming me to the ICA. There are few good Australian kennels which focus on producing good performance dogs. There is also some incredible game on which to test the dogs. We have formidable feral goats, pigs, foxes, scrub bulls etc.. It is my hope that we can contribute through the ICA to the preservation of working dogs in this field while also interacting and competing with performance dogs around the world. For this purpose I am the president of the Performance American Bulldog Club: www.freewebs.com/aawatsonI am aware that the laws in Australia and other countries vary from those in USA as regards working dogs, and therefore will operate within Australian legal perameters while observing ICA standards. My kennel prefix is Antoidemaler, and I strive hard to produce performance bulldogs and bandogs. Over many years I have gained success in training dogs to excel. I even trained my Old English Mastiff to pass the Endurance Test (12 mile run) after everyone told me that it was impossible. Some dogs have great potential which is never discovered until effort is expended by the owners to train their dogs, so it was with great satisfaction that I proved that the impossible is possible. I have this attitude regarding all breeds of dog and their performance potential. So owners, LET YOUR DOGS EXCEL!!! Regards, Mrr. Alan Watson
