Did you buy her from that kickboxer guy?

06-11-2007, 10:04 AM
No, I was thinking of buying her from Immaculate, but he only had one female, and he said she was spoken for. I didnt want to go over someone to get a puppy. Plus there is the whole thing that I cant see what I would get until I got it. Where I am buying mine from is a very reputable site in breeding non-aggressive pit bulls, and you pay for it too lol. But I can go see my puppy before I buy her, she is only like 2 hours away from me. I talked to the breeder long and hard about the aggressive nature of the pit and she has spent 15 years working on breeding non-agressive pits. She runs a kennel also and her pits interact with all the dogs, ranging from chiuahas, boston terriers, to rescued pits. She adopts mistreated pits and has unbelieveable knowledge on the breed. Funny part is I called her about her boston terrier puppies, and I ended up getting a pit lol.

ROFL. To tell you the truth I am not worried about it doing anything violent. If you spend time with your dog, do the basic obedience training, and make sure they are around other dogs and animals when they are young they will be fine. Plus she is only a puppy she is too small to hurt anything.

Honestly me either, but the thing that sold me was the repetitive replies of the breeder saying she has not bred any aggressive dogs. I live out in the country and wanted a dog that would protect my house. Our other dogs are wimps and if we got robbed they would run away rather than attack a burgler. We have had some robberies around our area and really I wanted something I could play with but that also would protect our possesions.

See, we are a little more progressive here in Denver, our stance on meathead worthless dogs like pits is "catch em and kill em". Maybe someday you dumbshits in Ohio will catch up, although I doubt it.

She is a Blue Nose American Pit Bull Terrier, she is 100% game breed, her lineage as stated on here is very impressive. She comes from 20 UKC Champions, and I cant remember what the breeder said something like "6 Gold Knuckles winner" (i could be way off). I know she is a descendant of Southern Comforts "Mighty Mouse", which is quite impressive in the Pit world.

having owned some truely gamedogs, your dog IS NOT GAMEBRED OR A GAMEDOG!

a HUGE majority of UKC dogs havent been 'gamebred' since the 30s'and are considered by most affecianados a distant cousin of gamebred pitbulldogs.
NO SUCH THING AS BLUE NOSE.
black, red and butterfly/dudley nose.
PR or purple ribbon doesnt mean a dog has won shit only that its ped has been traced(registered with) back 3 gens by the UKC.

I have a PR treeing walker whos mom has never won shit....just because you breed the balls of a dog and hype it up doesnt mean its worth anymore than the dog you get from a rescue.

MOhillbilly and Big_Daddy, if you dont mind I would like to run a few questions by you then. First my dogs father and his father and so on, were all used in Louisiana to hunt boars, so then why would he not be considered gamebred also? 2nd I already asked you this BD but I will ask anybody else, its just kind of fun to test the waters. What kind of food do you feed your pits the breeder I bought my pup from says National is the best its 34% protein and you dont have to spend time boiling or cooking and draining turkey to put in it. Also my dogs mom at 1 year weighs 60 pounds and her dad at 3 years weighs 80lbs how big you think my puppy should get to. I have researched those treadmills, do you think its necessary seeing as im not gonna be pulling with mine or showing her that much to start off with.

Game dogs are fought with 3 people in the pit and any human aggressive behavior is usually snuffed out. The general belief is that you have a dog that is less likely to be a man biter if it was game raised.

Ok, so I realize this is outdated, but it is still funny and those of us who have had puppies can relate......

1. Remove film from box and load camera.

2. Remove film box from puppy's mouth and throw in trash.

3. Remove puppy from trash and brush coffee grounds from
muzzle.

4. Choose a suitable background for photo.

5. Mount camera on tripod and focus.

6. Find puppy and take dirty sock from mouth.

7. Place puppy in pre-focused spot and return to camera.

8. Forget about spot and crawl after puppy on knees.

9. Focus with one hand and fend off puppy with other hand.

10. Get tissue and clean nose print from lens.

11. Take flash cube from puppy's mouth and throw in trash.

MOhillbilly and Big_Daddy, if you dont mind I would like to run a few questions by you then. First my dogs father and his father and so on, were all used in Louisiana to hunt boars, so then why would he not be considered gamebred also? 2nd I already asked you this BD but I will ask anybody else, its just kind of fun to test the waters. What kind of food do you feed your pits the breeder I bought my pup from says National is the best its 34% protein and you dont have to spend time boiling or cooking and draining turkey to put in it. Also my dogs mom at 1 year weighs 60 pounds and her dad at 3 years weighs 80lbs how big you think my puppy should get to. I have researched those treadmills, do you think its necessary seeing as im not gonna be pulling with mine or showing her that much to start off with.
your breeder is talking about preydrive. ive hunted bulldogs and if they quit on game theyre curs. many many many so called 'game' dogs are in reality high preydrive untested curdogs.

32% is to high for a daily feed. it will burn a dog/puppy up. preydrive is what you breeder was talking about.
alot of those breeders keep there dogs FAAAAATTT. its better to see a tucked gut and a rib than to see 3 inches of fat. its hard on dogs to be that heavy.

if you want your dog to look fit, walk/run them everday. its good for yoo and better for your dog.
firm but fair.

I made a pretty nice sled myself. Just some sheet metal, and some steel tubing, and a welder. (I do ALOT of work on cars so it was nothing)

I've got everything all setup, but now I need a harness.

the IWPA site probably has links.

I just got it. Had a hard time getting Taz out as much with the kid and all. Yes it's free spinning. $1,500. $500 down and a grand when you pick it up. He likes showing off when people come over.

flirtpole will burn the energy off him quick. 5 minutes is enough. its a goodtime aswell.

this video(sfw) will give you a good idea. theres sucks and they arent doint it right. i like mine on a 6-7 foot old fishing rod,piece of cord,and sock,coontail.
flip it back and forth(flirt) in front of the dog. Make sure not to let the dog get it or have its feet leave the ground.

builds fast twitch muscle. short bursts. nomore than 5 minutes for adult dogs,short bursts for young dogs. a good walk for a cool down after.


Springpole
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhulDLgt0r0

i dont do ANY type play where a dog associates hands w/ a bite reflex. no tugging on the socks rope ect.
springpole is a good way to get around this. bulldogs love it.

dont start dogs on heavy springpole action till theyre milk teeth are out and dont let them hang on a springpole all fours off the ground till theyre 2 years.(lose a hanger if you do)

if you dogs/pups toung starts to roll up on the tip hes about done or close.
