Puppies Saved from The Midwest Puppy Mill

100 puppies were rescued from the Midwest for being treated with cruel, inhumane acts. These puppies were thought not expected to survive as long as they did, nor were they ever expected to have a good home. North Shore Animal Clinic was kind enough to rescue all 100 of these puppies, with hopes of getting them the homes the deserve.

North Shore will groom, bathe, feed, and give a full examination to these puppies to see what their ailments are, if any and get them on a road to recovery. With all of this done, and the puppies soon to be well, hopefully many people will come in and rescue these cute pups. North Shore is the second largest rescue organization in the world who believes in the "no- kill" policy. What this means, is that, instead of euthanizing a dog because they are sick, they will nurse them back to health and give them a home if no one else will. This is why they took in all of these puppies from the puppy mill in Missouri and Oklahoma.

Let's discuss a little bit about exactly what a "puppy mill" is. It is when a person uses their home for breeding purposes and no matter how many puppies they acquire, they keep them and continue to breed. Once the puppies can no longer breed, they are killed soon after their last litter is produced or sold for about $1.00!

With that said, these dogs will be evaluated by the veterinarian and put up for adoption on Friday or Saturday at the latest. Please come and save a puppy or two.

Is This Guy CRAZY?

On today's episode of Dr. Phil, Rob Rogers, a former leader of dogfighting rings appeared and shared his views. Although he served 6 months in jail for his heinous crime, it proves to have done no good.

This guy can't be for real? I'm convinced there's something seriously wrong with him and he should be put away in a mental institution, forget jail for 6 months. I cannot fathom how anyone can think this is ok or think there is nothing wrong with this and that it's a "sport."

It was very, very hard for me to watch this episode of Dr. Phil, I only did it to open up the eyes of narrow minded people and show them the stupidity that exists in this world, and the atrocities of dog fighting, and further more, the disgustingness (my own word) of this man.

This guy thinks this blood sport is no different than boxing or caged fighting amongst humans. Really? How about he goes into a ring with his worst enemy, who's much more prepared as a fighter than he is and much bigger and we see how he comes out? That would be fun to watch(at least for me). He even had the audacity to say that these dogs are "well taken care of." Umm...the last time I checked, half, if not all of these dogs die in the ring, or are killed afterwards by their owner. So if this is what he considers "well taken care of," I'd love to take care of him.

"The law is wrong for banning dog fighting," stated Rogers as the crowd gasped in astonishment. This guy needs an evaluation, quick. And to think he only served 6 months and was then allowed to be free amongst human society, when he is clearly not human, nor does he have humane thoughts.

The funniest quote by far, "I don't use chains...I use weights," while the audience sighed in disbelief. Is that any better? If you ask me, that's 10 times worse, but I forgot, "that's the game."

This guy has killed a couple hundred dogs in his lifetime, killing some by shooting them because he thinks "it was more humane to kill them, than to have them starve or hurt." I'm not getting this guy, maybe it's me. Rogers says some of the things that should be considered abuse are "starving your dog or beating them." Because fighting them is any better?

I'm so glad the guys from Rescue Ink came and gave this guy a piece of their mind, because someone had to (being that I couldn't hop through the screen as I wished I could). They said something effective, "these dogs start on a chain and end in the ring." What kind of life is that and why is this guy free in his community and breathing MY air? Why didn't he serve YEARS in prison and why is he married?

The words I have towards this episode and towards this guys thoughts are beyond verbal expression. I'm left speechless and wish something or someone could get through his thick, disgusting head. He has no remorse for all the dogs he's killed and thinks the law is wrong for banning this "sport." I wish one day someone could express their feelings to him, with their fist to his face. Better yet, maybe someone should do to him what he does and did to these dogs. If he breaks his leg or gets hurt in the most minute way, should someone "kill them by a bullet" as Rogers so calmly stated?

Watching this was by far, one of the hardest thing I've had to do. I did it to be the voice of this breed and to help them get the love they deserved.

Please watch this clip (just in case you didn't catch the show). This isn't even half of the stupidity this guy said:

Tuesday on Dr. Phil

While watching Dr. Phil today (I like to catch his show when I have time), I saw a preview for upcoming shows. I was horrified when I saw the preview for Tuesdays show; a guy who supports dog fighting will be on there, showing videos and speaking about how he's fought over 100 dogs. I wish this guy life in prison. After I watch the show (hoping I can catch it), I will post more information about this disgusting behavior. I hope many people can watch this also, to see how horrifying this "sport" is.

My Nosey Girls

They're just as nosey as you or I. This is an example of human-like qualities dogs possess, EVEN pit bulls. This is also an example which denotes the myth of pit bulls always wanting to attack smaller dogs. Gucci is 6-7 lbs at most and Fendi would not let anyone hurt her. She is her protector, so get that crazy thought out of your heads.

To "Fix" or To Breed? That Is The Question?!

Hey all! I’m about to talk to you guys on a personal note, and explain to you how upset I am and why. For all of you who have dogs and didn’t mate them, or don’t plan to, you’ll know exactly where I’m coming from. It’s “fix” them, or breed them. In other words, get them spayed or neutered or mate them. I was always against mating my pit for a number of reasons, number one being that I refuse to mate my pit and have a bunch of pit puppies distributed and obtained by the wrong people (that would just create a vicious cycle). The 2nd reason being that, I did not want to destroy my dogs body. She is very fit and once she gets pregnant, everything goes hay wire (kind of like women).

So now here is the upsetting part. I never planned on mating Fendi as you know, and I certainly did not want to get her “fixed” because that would also make her fat, so it’s kind of like a lose lose situation. What I didn’t know is that by not doing either is harming her, and will eventually shorten her life span. I want to give a thanks to the guy in my neighborhood, who walks his pit on a daily basis for telling me this info. So with this said and done, I panicked. Shorten her life span? Surgery? Are you kidding me? Not my Fendi, what else can I do to get out of this? Nothing, this has to be done.

Immediately I run to call the vet to schedule an appointment, there is one bad thing; Dogs usually get “fixed” within their first few months of life, Fendi is now 7. Scary huh? Tell me about it. Her scheduled date is May 21st, and I’m dreading every moment of it. Why is a dogs life so complicated? Let me answer that; it is because they are like humans in many ways.

The reason I am posting this is because I want to give insight to those of you who didn’t know that mating or “fixing” can kill your dog. I am going to give you some more in depth information on the particulars of spaying or neutering your pup.

If you DO NOT spay/neuter you dog, this is what can happen:
1. Unwanted puppies can occur, leaving them with no home, or a bad home
2. Females, if not spayed between 6-9 months of age can develop mammary (breast) cancer
3. Dogs can become aggressive
4. Females and males will urinate in your home
5. Prostate problems occur


If you DO spay/neuter your dog, these are the perks:
1. Reduced chance of developing mammary cancer (females)
2. Spayed females can’t develop pyometra (an infection of the uterus that can result in death)
3. Less likely to roam
4. Better temperament develops
5. Longer overall life span
6. Prevents prostate problems
7. Just overall, the right thing to do, even if it seems horrible for US, it’s what’s best for our pups!

Now let me tell you what spaying is and which gender this applies to. Spaying is for female dogs. This involves the removal of both of the uterus and the ovaries. Neutering is, by default, for the male dogs. This involves castration, better known as the removal of the dogs testicles (ouch)! But it’s just as bad for both male and females, let’s not have more sympathy for one over the other.

Now I’ve heard that once a dog is over 5, the surgery is a little more detailed, not impossible, just a little harder. The minute I heard this, my heart fell into my big toe, not something I wanted to hear being that I love my dog sometimes more than humans. However, this is not a CHOICE for me, you or any dog owner. So if you’re considering doing this soon, here are some aftercare instructions:

1. Restrict jumping and playing for 7 days (activity can cause the incision to open)
2. Keep your dog away from other animals (rough play can be dangerous)
3. Check surgery site daily
4. Wait 10 days after surgery to bathe your dog
5. If your dog begins to vomit, contact your vet right away

Although surgery seems to be a scary word and the fact that our dogs are receiving anesthesia is a very scary thing, but we are also being selfish and not understanding that in the long run, these dogs will be much happier and live a much more healthy life. My situation is a little different, my pit is older than the normal age of 6-9 months, and this is because (as I stated), I did not intend to ever do this, I didn’t think it was such a severe thing, but I’m glad I found out sooner than later.

What I need people to know and to never forget is that a dog requires the same health care that humans do. DO NOT purchase or adopt a dog without being willing to accept the responsibilities that come with it. This is where unwanted puppies come into play, as well as dogs dieing unnecessarily, when whatever ailment they had could have been cared for. There is also health coverage for dogs, just as is for humans. For more information on this, you can go to the ASPCA website @ aspca.org.

So with all that said, let’s pray for Fendi on this surgery I am dreading.

A Little History of This Breed & How They've Come To What They Are Now

What bothers me so much about people and what is said about pits, is the fact that people are so quick to judge based upon what they hear, rather than knowing facts and finding out for themselves. Before people are so quick to judge our precious pit bull breed, ask yourselves, do you know their history? Do you know where they've come from? Do you know anything? Let me answer that question for a majority of people….NO! So here, let me give you some insight.

Pit bulls were originally given the name “nursemaid’s dogs” because they were so trusted and reliable with young children. So what is it that I hear? They like to attack children and kill them? I think not, this is where the owners come in to play in training our dogs to be something their not. It's sad to say, but a majority of the owners who wish to have a pit, want them for the wrong reasons. They are wanted to breed for fighting reasons and to make money or exchange drug deals. Sounds like I’m stereotyping huh? I’m not! It’s statistically proven that a 9 out of 10 of the fighting rings that are shut down, belong to drug dealers or people who have past felony records.

Pit bulls are descendants of the original English bull baiting dogs. These dogs were bred to attack large animals, such as bulls, bears or anything else large you can think of. They had to attack these animals around their face and heads. They were then trained not to let go until they could not longer hold on from exhaustion and from loss of blood. This animal baiting was banned in the 1800’s, this is when people started fighting these dogs against each other. This seemed to become a “sport“, leading breeders to breed a more athletic breed of dogs. These dogs made there way to North America and are now related to pit bulls.

This breed got there negative correlated name when people decided they wanted a “macho” looking dog (a Pomeranian just wouldn’t do anymore). They wanted these dogs to become a breed which no longer were to be vicious against each other, but to also be vicious to people. These dogs came into this world with no anticipation of being anything but loving, caring, loyal dogs; but upon being bred to an owner with an ulterior motive, they had no choice but to obey, or die. This is where people have a huge delusion of thinking this is how “they are” or “they have something in their brain that makes them snap”. No people, they are trained and forced into a lifestyle because that’s the only one they know of.

As stated in a previously, dog fighting is now banned in all 50 states, but that is not stopping the undercover fighting rings. These dogs are involuntarily pushed to fight until they are to the point of no return or until they are killed, that’s normal for these sick, demented people. Another common way in which is used to antagonize the dogs and cause them to be more ferocious, is for other animals to be thrown in the rings. Such as rabbits, cats or rodents. These small creatures are used as “bait” (sounds like they’re going fishing huh?).

So it makes us think, how do most of these dogs survive once they are so badly injured? The truth behind the walls….veterinarians are sometimes paid off to care for the injured dogs. We look at them as a cure for our pets, but according to some, this is the truth. Who else gets a piece of the pay? Lawyers, teachers, judges and I’m sure many, many more whom are failed to get mentioned. Can’t we see this epidemic? No one is as wholesome as they seem, no matter what their job title is or what they may “practice”. Money talks and BS walks.

Let’s talk some statistics now. In March of 2000, “the ASPCA asked representative U.S. shelters about their experiences with pit bulls. Thirty-five percent take in at least one pit bull a day, and in one out of four shelters, pits and pit mixes make up more than 20 percent of the shelter dog population. New York, Chicago, Boston, Phoenix and Honolulu each saw 3,000 to 7,500 pits turned in during the previous year. One shelter staffer recounted hundreds of abuse cases that came through their doors-pit bulls who had been burned, beaten, and fought with." “According to the shelters surveyed, a third do not adopt Pit Bulls out—some because it is against the law to have them in their communities, and others are concerned where the dogs will ultimately end up. Sadly, in these cases, the dogs are euthanized.” (aspca.org)

So now, with a little history given about the breed, their fighting background and more, I have to ask, when will the ignorance and cruelty end? Now the truth is out there, it’s time the right people began to take the blame and understand that an animal is taught their behavior once it has become domesticated. It’s out of their paws once they are adopted, rescued, purchased, wherever they were obtained from. They now become a prized possession in which people take for granted. It’s like saying to a parent, “your child is an animal with no morals because that’s how you’ve raised him/here.” It’s not the childs' fault. They emulate what they see and what they were taught or NOT taught. People must open their eyes up to the rotten core of the apple-- THE OWNERS!!!! I have stressed this over and over throughout my blog postings, but I don’t think it can be stressed enough because it seems that the negativity will never end.

Please, follow the link above to help give out pit pups the love they deserve!!


LET'S STOP PEOPLE WHO LIKE THIS, WHO CONTINUE TO DO THIS!! PUT THEM AWAY FOR LIFE!

You'll Be Amazed @ What You're About To See & Read-- Let's Stop The Negativity & Realize The Reality! WATCH CLOSELY!!

Now if this video doesn't sum up the jist of my blog in the words I can't express, then I don't know what will. This is the truth, this is reality. These aren't actors or posers, this is the real deal. People need to think before they judge this breed. Pits aren't the only ones to commit such horrific dog incidences, take a look for yourself. Pictures are proof and you will see it here. Guaranteed astonishment!!

Pits Can Save Your Lives Also- Don't Be So Judgemental!

"Mr. ASPCA"-- My Interview With an Expert

"The only vicious ones are the ones who are mistreated and bred to fight." Those were the words of "Mr. ASPCA", also known as my father, whose name we will keep confidential just for his protection.

He worked for the ASPCA from 1983-1993, 10 years strong in the five boroughs and in conjunction with the tri-state area. He says it was one of his greatest jobs he's had. He specialized in pit bulls, rescuing them, arresting their owners for malpractice of ownership, closing fighting rings and whatever else was entailed in saving this breed. The words of "MR. ASPCA" will show you the light at the end of this tunnel. With asking him a few questions, it became evident to me why I love pits and always have, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Becci B.: What was it like working with pit bulls on a daily basis?

"Mr. ASPCA": Everyday working with pit bulls was challenging because you never know what to expect because these dogs came in with various temperaments; but to my surprise, after all that was said about pit bulls, I found them to be very gentle animals.

BB: Were you ever scared by a pit during work?

"Mr. ASPCA": In the back of your mind, there's always a sense of fear, but you can never really show it or express it while in the presence of the dogs.

BB: Why was it your choice to specialize in/with pit bulls?

"Mr. ASPCA": {Because} the dogs were so stigmatized and I felt differently about them and I had to prove they weren't as vicious as they were said to be. The only vicious ones were the ones that were mistreated and bred to fight.

BB: Were you ever bitten by a dog?

"Mr. ASPCA": Yes! I was bitten by a dog that was nothing like a pit. It was a small Chihuahua who bit my finger while I was checking the license around its neck. I was also bitten on the buttocks by a Pomeranian while I was walking out of a front gate. But I was never bitten by a pit.

BB: What was the scariest encounter you've had with a pit bull? Saddest?

"Mr. ASPCA": I was trying to remove an abused pit who wasn't sure whether I was trying to hurt him or save him and he was getting very aggressive, until he realized I was trying to save him. The saddest would have to be an encounter with one dog who was beaten and abused because he wasn't aggressive enough to fight and we were lucky enough to get him out in time and save him.

BB: How many pits have you owned in your lifetime?

"Mr. ASPCA": 6! I loved each and everyone of them.

BB: Have you ever had any bad experiences with any pit bulls that you've owned?

"Mr. ASPCA": No! They were so loyal to me, no one could have even believed.

BB: What was your most rewarding experience while working for the ASPCA?

"Mr. ASPCA": Rescuing pit bulls from those owners who abused, starved and beat them. Those had to be the best moments ever. Knowing that not only did I save a life, but I was also able to find them loving homes where they would soon progress onto being those loyal dogs I know they could be had to be the greatest reward ever.

BB: What should most people know about this breed that they don't?

"Mr. ASPCA": They are very sweet animals if they are not wrongly treated and abused, just as in any other animal. I wish people knew that they are far from vicious and the name they have received is due to hearsay and people who tend to be narrow minded.

BB: What is the biggest stereotype about pit bulls that you want to clarify?

"Mr. ASPCA": That they are killers and they attack children and any other negative or absurd stories you hear. They're not true! These dogs are always provoked and made out to look like the bad guys.

BB: Have you ever responded to any other dog fighting rings, aside from pit bulls?

"Mr. ASPCA": Sad to say, but no!

BB: What was their legal status when you worked for the ASPCA?

"Mr. ASPCA": They were legal, and I hope they stay this way. This breed is unfortunately very misunderstood and I find them no more aggressive than your "average" pup.

Never Truer Spoken Words, Said by Those Who Know Facts Behind The Stereotype!

"Leaving a child alone is not safe, regardless of the breed" said by Micaela Myers, spokesperson for Pit Bull Rescue in San Diego.

"The bottom line is that focusing on breed doesn't make communities safer." -Myers

" The Netherlands banned pit bulls 15 years ago, and bite rates were not reduced. England's bite rates have gone up since implementing The Dangerous Dog Attack, which focuses on pit bulls and select other breeds. A study on Prince George's County, Maryland, pit bull ban also showed that public safety was not improved as a result of the ban." -Myers

"IN my opinion, pit bulls are the least likely to be human aggressive. On the whole, you have to do a lot of work to make them aggressive to people." -Sue Frisch, Dessin Animal Shelter Manager

"Every negative incident involving a Pit Bull adds to the breeds reputation and jeopardizes our right to own these great dogs-Keep your Pit Bull out of trouble!" -PBRC.net (Pit Bull Rescue Central)

"Not every pit bull is a bad dog, not every lab is a good dog. You see some wonderful poodles walking down the sidewalk that will just eat your arm off if you stick your hand out." -Patsy Beeker, Program Director, Kitty City


There you have it, very few quotes of millions, from other people who know the TRUTH behind the stereotype. These words are spoken from people who work with pitbulls on a regular basis, people who own pits themselves, people who just want to help the breed and much much more. I can't stress it enough, don't judge a book by what you've heard, because the truth is, you don't know the truth!!

Muzzles: Beneficial Or Detrimental? My Product Review That Will Forever Be Held Controversial

Muzzles will forever be something ignorant people think is the best thing to put on a "vicious" dog. Let's ask our self this one question before we get into the details and politics about muzzles: if you went out with your friends, would you want to wear a muzzle which almost restricts your breathing, just so you won't eat, speak or talk too loud? No, i don't think so. Why do our pits have to be subjected to wear these muzzles? Just because people are afraid of how they look? Or because their OWNERS have trained them to be nothing but vicious to the public and loyal to them? Either way you look at it, IT'S NOT THEIR FAULT!!

This muzzle is a close comparison of what Hanibal Lecter wears in all of his movies. Our pups should be confined to this when being outside? I think not!! These dogs are THOUGHT to be vicious when seen in streets because of all the negativity spread about them, but little do people know, they're not, YOU are vicious, YOU are cruel and YOU are hurting these dogs, more than helping them by making them wear this monstrosity of a thing.

Wearing these muzzles and restricting these dogs on a regular basis is harming them more than anything. When a dog wears this and finally has it taken off after so many hours, or even minutes, they are more inclined to "attack" or act out because they have been restrained for so long and for no reason. If you put this muzzle on a Yorkie or the world's smallest dog, the same reaction would happen once it's taken off. The size, breed or behavior of a dog has nothing to do with whether or not they should wear a muzzle, or what would happen once it's taken off.

When I "Google" muzzle, why is it that a majority of the pictures that come up are of pitbulls? Let me answer that question for you, it's because EVERYONE thinks pitbulls are the only breed that should have to wear this face mask. I'm actually very surprised that this dog can even breath. Let me also just clear the air, this picture is not of my dog, nor of a dog I know, I found it while "Googling" to find out more information than that of my knowledge and of my opinion.

Muzzles in my opinion, are hurting our pups. Train them from puppyhood to be obedient dogs and this muzzle thing will go out of business. Do people know that muzzles cause your dog to over heat and can even be fatal? Stop looking at the here and now, start young, help your pups and there will be no need to stop their breathing. Muzzles are usually put on dogs because their owners have never taken the initiative to train them correctly in the first place. Look at the person holding the leash with an evil eye, not our four legged friends, they didn't ask for it!

Save a Pit, Save a Life-- Have A Heart!!

Let's talk about how much our friendly pitbull pets need homes just as much as the "average" dog. People are so quick to go and purchase a dog for an astronomical amount of money, before going to an animal shelter and rescuing a pitbull. What most people fail to realize, is that regardless if a pit was placed for adoption and now resides in an animal shelter due to fighting or whatever the reason maybe, we have to remember--IT'S NOT THEIR FAULT!!! They did not ask to run on treadmills everyday or to fight till their bloody and dieing, but the owners who did this to them and left them with no other option or place to reside. This is where we come in. Wouldn't you rather renew a life that was once harmed and almost ended, rather than always spending over $1,200 at times for a puppy? Puppies are always fun, but think of it as having your own children and adopting another from a needy place. The joy is much more rewarding knowing that you saved a life. These pits don't have much of a choice from here, it's save them in a certain amount of time, or have them put down.

There are many shelters which house only pitbulls in hopes of people realizing that these are probably one of the greatest breeds, amongst many that are out there. There are also "meet up" groups online where you can join to talk about the pit you have adopted and where you have found him/her. We really need to think about what we do before we do it, as in anything. Why on earth should a pitbull die because of the stupidity of someone else's actions? I bet if they could pick up the phone and call 911 because of what was being done to them, they would; but they can't. So let's help rejuvenate this breed, bring them back, save them and show people that they aren't what they are stereotyped to be. My pit is by far one of my greatest joys, and now everyone should go out, follow the links and adopt one to make your home a happy one.

Are Pits Really the Only Fighting Breed? I Think NOT!

Hey everyone, welcome back from Easter, Passover or whatever it is you and your pit pups celebrate. Hope it was a nice, safe one! This week, I want to jump right into something that was brought to my attention, and ignorantly disputed: dog fighting. Many people have this huge misunderstanding and stereotyped idea that pitbulls are the only breed that participate in dog fighting scandals, which by the way, I think is by far the worst thing anyone could ever do to a dog, let alone any animal every and whoever does, should all receive life in prison, unlike Michael Vick, but we won't get on that right now, that's a whole different blog post. So, getting back to these pits being thought of to be the only breed involved in dog fighting, 100% untrue. So, for those of you who thought so, think again. There are a list of at least 20 different dogs who were put to fight way before pitbulls became so predominant.

Although dogfighting was banned from all states in 1976, it still goes on until this present day, and NO, it's not only or all pitbulls that fight. Many people are also known for fighting Bull Mastiffs. But why is it that only pitbulls have been recognized as a negative, dangerous and fatal breed of dogs? Because people fail to see the truth and even something such as a dog breed can be stereotyped and become part of society which everyone looks down upon without knowing facts. NO dog breed should have to even know of having to fight forcefully and being killed, but if this is what's going to happen, we should look at all the participants and realize that it isn't the dogs who want to do this, regardless of what breed it may be, it is the owners and we need to remove them before we are so quick to want to remove these dogs who do have potential to be the most loving, loyal and understanding pets.

AN EARLY HAPPY EASTER TO YOU ALL:: From My Pit to Your Pit

Fendi says Happy Easter!!!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3_-q55hqMI (Cute video of someone else's precious pit)


Happy Easter to all of you and to all the pretty pits out there. As we all know, Easter is just one step into spring, but it is also a reminder that our doggie training days should begin. We want our pits to join all the other dogs that are able to participate in these public classes. They can to, why not? Their behavior is sometimes more bearable than those little nagging dogs that attend these classes. So here are a few classes that you pit-pup or adult can attend if you live in the Brooklyn, NY area.

**Starting March 28th, 2010, Doggie Academy located on 89 3rd St will hold obedience classes

There is also usually a public training event every spring in Marine Park in Brooklyn as well, the particulars have yet to be disclosed, so I will keep everyone posted when I get the details as well, or if anyone gets a sneak peak before me, PLEASE let me know!! Have a happy safe Easter everyone!! WOOF!!

Welcome to The World of Pits

This blog is a voice for pitbulls and for my followers to know and learn pits if they don’t already know them, along with giving information where needed. I am a current pitbull owner myself and have grown up with pits since childhood. I have never, ever encountered a bad experience with a pit, actually, they are the only dogs I trust fully. I also have a teacup Chihuahua who can rule my pit at times. Let me give you their names for future reference; the pitbull is Fendi, she is a beautiful 7 year old red nose and Gucci is my teacup Chihuahua. We need to fully understand the history and the current times of our breed before we are so quick to judge and immediately want to “put them down”, and that’s what I am here to do. Pits are the oldest dog breed still around today, so lets give this breed the respect they deserve before we are so quick to criticize and dissipate this amazing, yet misunderstood breed.
