We here at Ryder's Kennels believe in the betterment of the breed. I and my wife and son enjoy having these dogs as a part of our family. They are a wonderfull breed to own and have protect your property. I have yet to find a better breed of dog to have around my son. I own a Lab and a Cocker Spaniel and while they are great dogs, the attributes they have to contribute to may family are not as great as the American Bulldog. We strive to improve the breed with selective breeding and health testing, using such methods as PennHip and OFA style hip and elbow testing, also using tempermant testing is very important part of our breeding program. I not only strive to breed dogs for show, protection work, or hunting we are striving to also breed very well-tempered dogs for familys , especially with children. These dogs are one of the greatest breeds I have had the pleasure to own. It is only fair that we give them our all as they do to us. Currently at Ryders Kennels we are in the process of expanding our kennels and going more towards the 100% Johnson line of AB's. After much thought we have decided to do this because we believe this line of dogs is the right type of dogs for our family and can do everything that we want our dogs to do.
