    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    lol i have nothing against shelter dogs, but i would rather get a puppy. if i found a puppy at a shelter (8-10 weeks), and there were pics of the parents so i could see what the end outcome would be, i wouldnt be against it. but that is unlikely lol

    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    For the 1893757th time i did not say i intended to put a dog in a position to fail. i was questioning the lack of breeding focused on breeding out the DA for dogs that will not be used in fights. it is a trait that serves no purpose outside of that. i was in no way saying i wanted to get a pit...

    Looking For a Dog With Similar Characteristics

    I am considering buying a new puppy. My first choice is to get an APBT but that is mostly because i can't seem to find any breeders who breed for the look i want in an American Bulldog. This is a pic of pretty much what i am looking for, it is the Scott type. Let me know if you know of any...

    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    lol trust me i know all of that about the whole rare blue thing and such. but dont you think its possible if someone would really put there heart into it they could be at least somewhat successful in breeding out the DA with still maintaining the good traits and not risking HA. i just think they...

    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    i agree with you on that one. many breeds are dog aggressive. all i was saying is that DA is not a trait that needs to be preserved in dogs used a housepets. and i in no way intend to just buy a pup and hope all is well. also i am on the same page as you trust me, i know the whole idea of...

    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    having a dog as a family companion, which pits love to be, that has severe DA is nothing but a liability. its nothing to "appreciate" i was with you guys pretty much until this point. i thought we were on the same page of recognizing that dog aggression is currently a common trait within the...

    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    You wouldnt support a breeder breeding away from dog aggression? that makes no sense whatsoever. the dogs that do not compete in dog fights have no reason to have DA..is serves no purpose whatsoever..it just makes the breed look bad.

    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    lol i do like the actual breed though. i grew up with pits. i have one of my own, who i mentioned IS Dog aggressive, but only with strange dogs. if he was to meet another dog on the street, he would possibly attack, if he were to go to the dog run he would get in a fight. but is, and always has...

    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    ok i understand what you are saying. all im saying is if you look at any breeds chances are 75 years ago they served a very different purpose than what they serve today. bulldogs- bullbaiting. sharpeis- fighting. and the list goes on, the only way for the breed to evolve in a positive manner is...

    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    boston lady did you have those dogs since they were puppies? you were bringing fosters into the house that is a completely different situation. also, pits do have a sense of pack, not every dog is a fighting dog with no pack mentality regarding other dogs. i know many people who own multiple...

    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    I agree with both you guys. I in no way think nurture can completely overpower nature. I simply love the look of apbts and many of their personality traits. Also I would never put down a dog based on animal aggression. Also I have loved every ambully I have ever met I am just not as fond of the...

    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    Read my original post. I said the breeder must breed for temperament. I in no way said I intended to buy a dog bred for anything other than classic apbt looks coupled with an improved temperament in regards to the dog aggression. I know for a fact that there are breeders who breed specifically...

    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    It would be a female as both of my current dogs are males. (One altered, one not) and yes pits are fighting dogs. Just like labs are retrieving dogs. This idea among the pit bull community that it is some sort of treason to hope for a dog that can live peacefully among other dogs drives me...

    Looking For a Dog With Simalar Characteristics

    I am fully aware that the breed has a propensity for dog aggression. However, it is my opinion that dogs properly raised together and with each other can coexist. It has been done many times. I am not hoping whatsoever for a dog that will be friendly with all dogs, or even any dogs other than...
