Breed Information

Breed Percentages & General Information:

Breed percentages were used in both breeding programs ,Jag lines & Nobes lines since the early stages of introducing British Bulldog.
This is based on the percentage calculated of British bulldog blood in each line .
The ABS do not use breed percentages or British Bulldogs within their society anymore.

The use of British Bulldog sires are still accepted by the United Aussie Bulldog Association , to be used where required to foundation line females (Low percentage) or females that come from a proven inconsistent line of Aussie Bulldogs. Some lines of Aussies that are doubled up on boxer or American Bulldog breeding, will be more dominant than other established lines of dogs, therefore producing inconsistency if mated to the wrong sire. So by mating them to a BBD, we immediately see results in a litter of consistent bulldog pups again.

Generations of breeding ( Aussie to Aussie matings) are also important , as long as they are quality matings ,which produce consistency and the offspring turn out as good or better looking dogs than their parents. Plainer males under 75 % are generally issued a Foundation Breed Certificate.

Breed percentages are calculated on every litter bred within the UABA, and this is written on each dogs breed certificate, along with a recommended percentage for that individual to be later bred to. If these recommendations are adhered to, then the Aussie/Australian bulldog will continue to have a great future.

With the right advice on breeding, new and existing lines of Aussie Bulldogs can be brought up to an acceptable percentage to be classified as suitable.
13/16 has always been our most sort after fraction , this in percentages is exactly 81.25 %

Breed Fractions
8/16 is the same as 1/2 =50%
9/16 = 56.25%
10/16 is the same as 5/8 =62.5%
11/16 =68.75%
12/16 is the same as 3/4 = 75%.
13/16 =81.25%.
14/16 is the same as 7/8 =87.5%.
15/16 = 93.75%
16/16 =100% just to complete the picture.

A BBD mated to a 5/8 or 62.5% female. = 13/16

An 87% or 7/8 male, mated to a 75% or 3/4 female = 13/16.

These are the common ways to achieve this percentage.A 5/8 is produce by mating a 1/2 or 50% dog back to a 3/4 or 75%, which is not something commonly done today, but can be utilised in a breeding program if it does turn up. As long as there is obvious qualities in that female, and she carries a good genetic background.

The UABA is an Independent Breed Registry, because we are dedicated in making sure that the Aussie Bulldog becomes a very well established breed for the future. They are still an emerging new breed and too early to shut the doors on the use of British & Percentages.

The United Aussie Bulldog Association is one huge breeding program, with nearly every mating being individually matched before hand, to aim at producing pups that suit the size and appearance of the set standard.
As time goes on, the UABA should have larger numbers of bulldogs that are distinctly recognized as an Aussie Bulldog, and should end up with 8 out of 10 dogs that look similar.
