  • Hi John, Most of the world knows him as "Rufus". But as you now know his registered show name is: BIS/BISS, AM,CAN,MEX,AMERICAS,& WORLD Champion Rocky Top's Sundance Kid, ROM,CGC,TDIAO,THD. Hugs to Shatzi and we wish you many years of happiness together.

  • @bullful Thanks so much! We met another Rufus grandson who also was red and white(feisty) working on his grand champion status. He looked very much like grandfather, and since he was red/white, quite a thrill. Schatzi and him are second cousins I think, which is great in itself. We did well I think, second(Thursday) and first(Friday) in the Terrier show, and third(Saturday) and first(Sunday) in the all breed show, all open class competitions. When he loses his shyness, he will be much improved!

  • @johnvfr800 Sorry about the confusion, the days I quoted above were for Schatzi's first big dog show in Palm Springs this last week.

  • Yeh Rufus! What a handsome/beautifully mannered boy. Have loved him from afar since I saw him win in 2006. My first Bullie is the same color, but a different old style bullie look. Our next Bullie Schatzi, came from Silmaril, and was told that Rufus is his grandfather. I looked at his paperwork and didn't see the name Rufus. I thought it was a misquote from the breeder. Einstein was the great grandfather, and reread the AKC paperwork and found that Rufus was his grandfather, yeh!

  • Very handsome boy you must be proud of him. Would like to start breeding these kids myself have owned three in 48 years great companions and loads of fun.

  • very beautiful! nice egg shaped head. i have a carbon copy of rufus, but his head is more of a terrier. love their spirit! playful, flirty, pushy enough to show character+. once a bully = forever a bully! this is our 3rd, all rescued, no problems at all. smart asses!

  • Met Rufus and his ownwrs last weekend here in NJ. Wonderful people and a beautiful dog. God Bless them! Rufus is AMAZING!!!

  • What a superior example of the breed. Also I have never heard Rufus speak until I saw this video. Love my bullies!

  • Stunning

  • my favorite Westminster win!!! Best in show ...

  • How many shows has this dog won in the UK  ?? he looks a lovely boy...he seems to have a great side head profile...but his head does seem small in this video !??

  • Hey EBTerriers, Thanks for your inquiry. We only traveled to the UK once where he was awarded a reserve CC at Cruft's under a judge that dislikes red dogs.

    We have left the winning up to his son grandchildren and great grandchildren.

    A few of them have gotten pretty good at it also. As you no doubt are fully aware of.

    Out of curiosity would you prefer his head or a Tucan?

  • LOL Who am i to knock him ,,,he obviously has achieved so much...its all personal taste at the end of the day...but as you know the UK has the best bloodlines...so it would of been nice to see him up against some of the stronger competition !...i think in the UK he would of done well but that funny chest he has might of let him down !

  • That funny chest is one of the virtues that helped make him, to quote many a breeder judges critique, the "100 year dog"!

    But your entitled to your opinion, what do they know?

  • Not much over in the USA it would seem lol...but all jokes aside hes a credit to the breed ;)

  • I like his grandsons, Teirwgwyn Son of a Gun at Meilow and Conreniam Dark Magician.

  • Hello Velasca,

    Their breeders and owners have done a wonderful job and we are very proud of how well both of these dogs have done,in and out of the ring. Congratulations to them all.

  • OMG thats my dogs brother :D I was looking him up to see if he was on here!!! awesome :D

  • Hi,

    Would you mind sharing the name of your dog and how he is related.

  • When we got her she did not have a name yet, but my parents named her Willi.

    She is deaf, and that is why she wasn't a show dog. We didn't have the money for all of the training so we went for her.

    She is Rufus's brother :)

  • I am very confused. She is his brother? Rufus is a male and he only had two brothers, Jesse James and Doc Holiday.

    Do you mean that she is Rufus's sister?

    What is her birthday?

  • I meant Rufus's sister, sorry, I typed that fast.

  • Hey birthday was sometime this January.

  • **her

  • Hello SaltireBlaze, Thanks very much for clearing that up for me. I guess I should contact the AKC as soon as possible and make them aware also of this terrible case of mistaken identity. Do you think that they will take away all of his titles and his 2 Bull Terrier Stud Dog of the Year awards?

    By the way have you been fan of the bull breeds for a very long time?

  • Was that you that gave me the red thumbs down? lol.I was taking the piss, I had a staff for 16 yrs,so I really do know the difference.He's a great looking English bull terrier :).

  • It wasn't, but when I tried to click on it just now to see who may have it added another. ooooops.

  • since the "fraud" has been exposed thanks to saltireblaze I will gladly take Rufus the 'staffy bull" off of your hands...send him to me. and how dare you pass off that staffy bull as a colored bull terrier? shame shame...hey saltirebull...here is the "true" story behind Rufus. he is really a pitbull that was rescued from a pound. you might want to call the AKC and report this..wink wink.....lol beautiful dog bullful....Rufus is the man,

  • I believe your dog was purchased from Yana and Milan Mikilos of Lionhearts Bull Terriers.

    She is not related to our RUFUS, BIS/BISS Multi Ch. Rocky Top's Sundance Kid, ROM

  • Was this video taken in East Freehold Park at the Memorial Day Weekend show clusters? I was there just to hang out with Rufus. He's not a dog but a person with a tail! I love him and his mom and dad, Tom and Barb!

  • Hi NJBellfan, This video was actually taken at the Cracker Barrel Fairgrounds in Wrentham, MA after the BTCNE Specialty.

    Thanks for the kind words!

    Tom

  • Rocky Top's Sundance Kid vs. Dazlin Defiance would be a good one. Both great dogs.

  • Indeed it would. Of course Rufus is now 8-1/2 years old and 4 years older than Marshall.Unfortunately, due to his absence, we missed seeing him compete against the top BT's at this years BTCA Nat'l Championship.

  • What a lovely all rounded dog,he is one hell of a english bull terrier,i have two but do not show them,the stud dog who i use is a champion as well,you are so lucky to have him and good luck and please keep the videos coming,5 stars i would give more if i could lol.
