I should get a pic of the bullpen at my dad's friends farm, all the wood is like 6" thick as a MINIMUM. if you think a bulldog is tougher then practically a bulletproof pen, then hey more power um to you i guess.

" It was in or about 1406 that Edmond de Langley, Duke of York, the forth son of seven son's of Edward III, wrote a treatise entitled "The Mayster of the Game and of hawks to Henry IV, and in his treatise he described the Alaunt or Allen dog as a dog with a large and thick head and a short muzzle, which was remarkable for his courage, so that when he attacked an animal he hung on, and was used for bull baiting"
