I dont' know how I'm going to choose between those two faces. My husband has duty tonight (we totally forgot) so it looks like I might be the lone decision maker! No stress, no stress at all.

Around here I've noticed that if a dog even looks slightly like a pit people will steer clear. And since I'm against ear cropping it won't be done and their tails aren't cropped so that won't be done either. :)

Thanks for all the replies though guys.

As you know i also love staff/pits and pits :) .You can do like we did when we looked at the puppies of which we picked our little girl.My daughter and i looked at each pup and picked the one who seemed like she approved our attention lol.I guess you can say she chose us :P .Let us know what one you bring home.

Well, we got the little boy, or rather, I got the little boy since Ryan had duty today which I forgot about. We named him Kou (pronounced Co). Now we go through the joys of house training... he's currently 90% paper trained.
The cats aren't exactly thrilled. For about five minutes they all walked around totally poofed out. Now they are just avoiding him.
So, that's the update. :)

OMG, they are both gorgeous but I love the boy more! I'm glad you got him, I was going to vote for him. I looooove loooove looooooove his blue eye. Is he a merle? He looks like one...I demand more pics!

aww! Grats! Post more pics soon, because he's adorable!

Such sweeties!!!! Take BOTH! :D :D *BAG*


My BIL has red noses. Two of the sweeeeetest dogs there are. I don't buy into the myth w/pits, but I also know there are lines that are more belligerent, but that happens in ANY breed and for most of the bully breeds, it's the training and the teasing that makes the aggression. Blaze was a very loving, if undisciplined dog. She just needed a loving, CARING home where she'd be trained. The guy who got her was 21 going on 6 and was sooooooo irresponsible, and Blaze paid for it.

Good luck in your choice! I don't envy you the decision!! It would be soooooo hard for ME to chose ONE!

R.

the good news is you don't have to put Kou into a pen and leave him alone for a week. :eek: with only water changes...

which means... you can take pics today, tomorrow and the next day! let's see some more pics :please:

LOL Yes Aleesha, this is true.
We are up, and believe it or not he slept through the night. Due to the cats acting like the sky is falling he slept in Ryan and I's room...on the bed. I had THOUGHT we brought the puppy crate out with us ( I am a fan of crate training) but itm evidently was something I didn't fit in the car.
So anyway, back to the bed. I know bad habit but Ryan will do it too. Kou slept through the night, woke up twice to change positions and to see if I was awake and wanted to play. This morning I knew we'd never make it outside in time so I placed him directly on his paper then got around to take him outside where he decided it was too cold and he wanted me to carry him (HA fat chance, this puppy is a brick) then he was a good boy and figured he might as well poo outside.
So, we came back in and he played then decided he had to poo more so went straight to his paper (I'm so glad I have DON'T have a carpeted bathroom!) and now he's currently trying to get the cats to play.
Shiloh is staring down a him like "Hmm.. looks KINDA fun" Cooper is giving him the look of the antichrist and Hudson is walking around with his tail floofed out trying to bop him.
I'm going to wake up a bit and have breakfast then I'll get ya'll some pictures.

Okay, picture time.

He looks like he's giving me the evil eye in this one but I just caught him as he was turning to look at me.
