Non-notable; this is one specific person's strain of bully dog that has been picked up by a handful of kennels. The only references I can find are in someone's courtroom testimony, where it is briefly mentioned in a list of breeds[1] [2] and in these two books (journal articles?) which also appear to be passing mentions: [3] [4] and upon closer examination might actually be the same book.

- First, No breeding program today has dogs bred down from his program; therefore, it is a rather mute point to say the Swinford Bandog article on Wikipedia is advertising based. Dr. John Swinford passed away in November of 1971,[1] and some time later all the dogs from his program have since too passed away. The merit of this article is the simple sharing of the documented process of how Swinford developed his breed of dogs, a breed which became rather notable during his lifetime as well as for some time after his passing.[2] The article reports how Swinford chose to use performance selection to improve the general fitness and health of working breeds. One can compare show breeds to working breeds and quickly note the considerably improvements made in general fitness and health of working lines as a result of performance selection. [3]
Second, the Swinford Bandog breed became rather notable during his lifetime as well as for some time after his passing, and has been referred to in many publications considering its limited lifespan, many of which were printed several decades ago. Such publications have included "The World of Fighting dogs by Carl Semencic"[4] [5]; The Working American Bulldog by Dave Putnam [5] [6]; Gladiator Dogs by Carl Semencic[6] [7]; the July-Aug issue of The Sporting Dog Journal (actually making one of the main articles as well as the cover story) [7] in "30 Years of Journal Cover Dogs by Jack Kelly [8]; Dog Catalog [9] and vet journal dog catalog [10], and also in a few others[8] [11] Swinford was described to have used performance selection to improve the functional capabilities and health of working dogs,[9] as working breeds have been shown to display general fitness and health from working lines of dogs is superior to non-working breeds.
