Pitbull Owners

Any Pitbull owners on here? my mates dog has just had puppies and im alowed to get one for my birthday they are 3/4 Rednose 1/4 staffie ive allways wanted a pitty allmost my whole life..

So who on here has 1 and do you have any tips on raising a rednose?

i think they are the most beautiful dogs you can get just sucks how they get so much bad press all the pitbulls i have ever been around in my life are the friendlyst dogs ive meet apart from first time meeting them when they are just looking after there home..

And if you own a pitbul a picture and info would be nice

thanks

Well my dog ran away.He was an american staffy x pitbull but was only down as a staffy on his papers.We could not find him anywhere because we just moved and hadnt changed his microchip details.I rang everywhere and nobody seemed to have him.He also had on a collar with my mums phone no, my email etc.Anyways the pound got him and said he was now councils property if we wanted him back that these were the things we had to do.Firstly pay the 500 bucks to get him out, get a special license to keep a dangerous breed, display signs everywhere BEWARE OF DOG, Get a fencer to put up a strong steel high fence which had to be approved by the council costing a few grand, nobody under 18 was to touch him,he had to be muzzled when walking or around anyone,desexed there too many to list.I fucking pissed me off so bad as the council were being pricks to me i said please give me a chance i was devistated and they told me he would be put down because it was unlikely that anyone would have all those licences etc.It was so sad for me and the kids because he was a very very friendly dog and he did not even bark or growl we just had him as a pet not a guard dog (there were times i wished he would have barked) lol.I just think he wa taken by someone at the council when they seen how sweet he really was.Well i hope anyways as they pretty much told us he would be killed because of his breed.

pit bulls are banned in Canada, and rightly so, theres a boot for the throat of any of those baby killers from me.

not all pitbulls are like that..people train them to be fighting dogs because they are strong. if u get a pitbull as a puppy its not going to mean unless you make it that way..

Bull shit soldier.
I see those fucking animals, they get the same look in their eye I get when I look at them.
They are killers. And they have no place in a civil society of picket fences and guys named Richard with wives in pantsuits named Brenda.

Theres him JUST A BABY about between 3-5 mths old then.Have no tips on raising them it would depend on the kind of dog u want i guess.I raised him like a sook lol just the way i wanted him to be a big sweet woos lol.I guess some people have them to guard the property then they would have to be raised different.I know someone with one who has let NOBODY touch it from a puppy except him.I dont like that especially that he has young kids because it shows the dog that anyone who cant touch him he can attack.Other people keep them caged all day and let them out only at night to guard there place.So you can imagine what those ones are like they are scary because they are only kept to guard.

No offense there jacky o...
But I just cannot trust pit bulls, rotweilers, dobermans, dalmations (dalmatia being Croatia, not as friendly now huhn...)
And all thsoe guard breeds.
I really want to kill them when I see them, it lets a little bit of the primordial hunter out in me, I see them as a threat, I respect them, but I want to kill them.
I just cant seea dog that kids cant take food out of theirs mouths being ok in this society. Though I do see these dogs as a tool if your usiung them as guard or attack dogs, though those are not pets.

forgot...btw your dog does look like a big softy jaque
Kisses and all for that mush bucket.

lol fair enough i believe yes they all do have an instinctive nature.This is true because my dog (blue cattle) did turn on me once when i was a kid but i deserved it.I put my horses saddle on him and tried to ride him he was not happy.He didnt bite me but he nipped me and growled that scared the shit outta me and i knew not to do it again.Animals have animal instincts but we can try and make them as mild as possible.I wont get a dog for a long time now until i know i can give it the right kind of yard etc.I will stick with my frogs and might even get a big fat snake lol
