Have you ever desired to be "World
Heavy Weight Champion" or perhaps the "World's Strongest Athlete" or maybe "Mr.
or Miss Olympia" and become the greatest body builder in the world? In the human
race it is highly unlikely that one individual will ever be able to become all
three of the aforementioned champions, however, in the world of canines, there
is one breed of dog that most assuredly could accomplish all three.
Most likely responsible for
putting courage and tenacity into every breed of dog that claims to be heroic,
the American Bulldog is the breed chosen by man to do mans' toughest work.
Having been known to catch and seize lions, bear, wild cats, wolves, wild boar,
horses, mules and of course cattle thus, the name BULLDOG.
This breed is where the terms "OL" Fashioned Bulldog Tenacity and Bulldog Grit
come from.
Joshua Kennels is the first kennel
to demand all breeding stock certified free of Dysplasia.
Temperament tested, protection
trained, these ol' time farm raised bulldogs win in the conformation ring and
will win your heart as the best friend money can buy.

Joshua Kennels is
proud to introduce you to the "Champion of Champions"
The Ol' Southern White "type" American Bulldog.

Hello Lem: I hope this
message finds you and your
family well. It's hard to
believe it has been 1 year
since we drove down from
Philadelphia to pick
up Bode. We continue to get
compliments about him. I
finally got him a chance to
track a deer my nephew shot
a couple of weeks ago and
you sure can tell what
Bulldogs were bred for.
Just wish we had some boar
in Pa.
Merry Christmas to
you and your family, and
thanks again for breeding
such an awesome puppy. Mark
and Gina Stinson 12/21/09

Hi Lem!
I just wanted to share a couple
pictures with you, and say thank
you so much for the great pup!
We are having a lot of fun with
him, and I already can see how
smart he is….and no fear. It is
amazing how nothing much bothers
him!
The pics are of our son Austin
with him (think we are gonna
name him Samson).
Have a great day, thank you!
Chris, Carri, and Austin

Lem,
Here
is Joshua's
Evangeline, the
dog I co-own with my
sister-in-law, Julie.
I'm so excited for them.
Best in Show and
Reserve Best in Show at
their first two shows
ever. Evie also got her
champion title the
same weekend!
One of
the judges told Julie
that she has thorougly
studied the
American Bulldog breed
standard as well
as judged them, and Evie was
the most perfect example
of an
American Bulldog
she has ever seen. Way
to go Julie and Evie!!
Thanks
again, Lem. Results,
not hype, is what I can
expect when purchasing a
pup produced from your
outstanding dogs.
Take
care,
Leland

Our cousin, Steve Reynolds talks about his bulldog, BJ
"He was the
kindest, toughest, gentlest, strongest dog I ever saw.
He was around for 15 years or more, and though he has been gone
for many years, he left a big hole down on the farm" |
Hey Lem - I just wanted to send you
some pictures of my pup that I got from
you back in November 2007. He's 10
months old now and still growing. He is
very smart and loves to be around people
and other animals. He is an awesome dog.

"Zeek" another
fine son of "Josh"
I'm so sorry to hear
that Josh passed away. I've been thinking of you
and your dog a
lot the last couple of months. Knowing that Josh
was getting older, I wanted to know
how he was doing. I don't know if you remember
me? You sent me semen about five
years ago and I matched it up with my dog AJ. (A
female out of Koa x Dixie Lee) I had
planned to keep just a couple of females from
that litter. But, there was a male that
(right from the start) just stood out in so many
ways that I couldn't give him up.
Having this dog makes
me realize just how much you must have lost
when Josh
passed away. His son is one of the most
self-confident dogs I have ever owned.
Thank you Lem. Thanks
for being so patient and helpful with my
breeding years ago.
I'm thankful that your experience and insight
has helped me put these dogs by my feet.
My sympathy to you and
you family.

Scarlett present and she makes the third place.
Today Scarlett have won at the ABA-Show in Ludweiler/ Saar in her class
(female 12-24 month) and she have make successful the ZTP

Hey Lem,
Just wanted to send this photo to you of Teutul
-- from Josh and Belle. He is just under eight months in this
photo. I have to say he is one of the most loving family
oriented dogs we have owned. I started him at obedience school at
four months with the intention of taking him through advanced and then
possibly protection. I underestimated his weight though and
ruptured two discs putting him in the truck. Two surgeries later
and I still love that dog half to death. He is so strong my
husband (who is also very strong) has a bit of a challenge on his hands
with him on the leash. I can't wait till he settles down a bit
from his puppy ways and I can take him out places again. He loves
to go to the coffee shop and socialize!! Anyways, thanks again for
such a great dog. I am probably just a touch biased but I
think he is the most handsome southern white that I have seen.
Take care, Angela Habel (San
Diego, CA)
Angela and Teutul

Caldey's

another fine son of
Nat'l CH. Joshua's Ol' Southern White
Dear Lem
As promised, please see another picture of Caldey's Joseph at eight months 1
week. 23 inches to the shoulder, 95lbs on the vet's digital scales.
|
We hope to enter him into his first show here in the UK in May - any tips
you have would be gratefully received - as well as any training tips. He
is very well behaved although still quite excitable around other dogs. We
think he looks like Joshua and Baby or maybe that's just wishful thinking!
Hope you like and he does Joshua's Kennel credit.
Congratulations on yet another title for Josh.
Regards
Raymond and Evonne

Bacon
I've just got to let you know how impressed I am with my new puppy! She is
the most intelligent dog I've ever owned. She adjusts so quickly to new
stimulus, always
confident. For example, I began crate training almost immediately after getting
her. The first time in the crate she cried, which is obviously normal and
expected. However, the second time she cried drastically less, and the third
time she didn't cry at all. She understood that crying would not get her out of
the crate. I have never seen a dog grasp this subject so quickly. Amazing! Also,
when teaching her house manners like sitting before she walks through the door,
and letting me go first before she proceeds, she was as quick as a whip to
learn. Lastly, housebreaking was a dream because after taking her
outside only twice, she recognized the pattern and would walk to the front door
when she needed to go potty. Now that she has all her shots, she has begun to go
on walks.
People constantly stop us to meet her, and always comment on her beauty and
confidence. She is also quite a lover and always kisses her momma on the face
without biting ( which has been a problem with my other dogs at first.) My puppy
is independent, but is always following me around. We have made an incredible
and unbreakable bond. I am so proud of her lineage.
best!

As you can see there are three OFA Excellent bulldogs in this pedigree
that insure the finest structure available. No where but
Laura

and
Joshua
Kennels.
Josh
and Sheba are the first breeding pair of OFA Excellent
bulldogs in the world and have produced top bulldogs (working and Best
in Show conformation) in Germany, France, New Zealand and the
US. Recently, a "Best Female" was won by Ellie
at the NKC Nationals hosted by Alan Scott and then a "Best In
Show" in Bushnell, November 2001. This was certainly no
fluke for this caliber of conformation runs in this line. Both "Josh"
and "Cowboy" were and are "Best in
Show" winners with "Cowboy" winning the 1998
ABA National Championship and "Josh" winning
the 2003 NKC National Championship.
