Did you know your home insurance premium is higher if you have pitsbills for pets? My daughter has pitbull mix and she is really sweet. Alley is 14 years old , I think the old for pitbulls . Your dogs are pretty .I bet know no one is going to break into your home!

Staffordshire Bull Terrier ![]() American Pitbull Terrier ![]() Pitbull Terrier dogs are more stocky - (My first dog died couple of years ago, she was a pitbull - she doesn't have a stocky looking, she looks very slim) |

which? the smaller Rottie baby <darker face> is 6 months. I also have a young adult. The baby is about 55 lbs; she will probably outweigh my adult who is about 75. I also have a veteran Lab <12 yrs.> through rescue who is only about 60 lbs.He has done some agility but never the Dog Walk that you see the girls on there.

oh - no, I don't do fostering - with three dogs and where we live it wouldn't work. Even when we had two - for many years prior to this triplet set of dogs we had two dogs - one of whom is the Lab who's still here and the other is my very dear heart dog <very first Rottie girlie> at the Bridge who was dx'd w/kidney disease at age 2. She lived to be 8 and 1/2 with good life quality with the aid of several vets and me home-cooking for her - but her medical needs as well as the behavioral needs and very bad hips of my Lab <also dx'd when he was was 2> meant that we really focused on them for a long time and so even though I was involved with dogs I never did any fostering. I have assisted in home visit placement and handled dogs at rescue events.
I currently volunteer at a shelter in a behavioral mod. program and am a member of several Rottie org's, and a local Bully group- |

Sweet - I volunteer at Second Chance Rescue, and Sioux Empire Pit Bull Rescue. I also do the training for the pitbulls. I also foster (bully breed dogs) each dogs, often stay with me up to 3-4 weeks til they find a new home. Makes me proud when those elder & senior citizen adopt pitbulls, and become their bestfriends. I've always wanted to live on the farm house, and own some more pitbulls, at the point where im living & full-time student, and full-time employee, full-time mommy to my pitbull dogs. its tough. |

that's an amazing amount of work you're doing, and so needed with all the Bullies needing assistance and rescues being so full.
That's awesome that you're doing the home cooking - a great way to control ingredients. I have done raw for about 10 years now - started with the Lab I've been mentioning as in the quest to determine the best quality of life for my first Rott, we acquired a holistic vet and learned about "pet food" and after which I switched the Lab over to raw. Both the Rotties in the pic.'s here are raw dogs and were weaned raw. "senior" adoptees AND adopters - either way it's wonderful, especially with the Pittie situation and with so many Pitties happen to be black or dark dogs - there's the sad issue of the darker-colored dogs not getting looked at or adopted so much. It IS tough to do all the work you do. I commend you

Not a lover of Pit Bulls, but ur dogs do look so happy and healthy! The white one does look playfuil (with the ball in her mouth)....the Straffsford (sp) Pit Bull is the one I'm very cautious about.....Good watch dogs!
I'm a lover of smaller breeds like shistzu's & Pomeranians....some Poodles too...just don't think I'd be capable of handling a big dog like yours!....I like to spoil my dog, pretty dresses, and pick her up for bedtime!...Don't think I'd be able to do that with a Pit Bull! HAHA....besides, the Pit Bull would take up the whole bed!...and those "sloppy" kisses!....Nah....I'll stick with my very feminine Pomeranian! Just a baby.... |

nah.. I get beefy with people who dislike pitbulls for stereotype reasons. what's sad is that they don't know my dog (golden retriever) is also one of top five biting dogs, along with pitbulls. problem is, if a golden retriever bites, media don't announce, but pitbulls? FLASH NEWS. oh, because it's a 'family' dog. anyway.
knight, don't think I've never seen that color, very pretty!! Quote:
thank you for doing this, rescue, taking them into your hands, train and luv them. we need more people like us!
