    Re: Puppies!!!

    Does momma have any titles? Or do obedience or any other kind of work? Not flaming or trying to get anything started as I believe in breeding as long as you do it responsibly and prove the dogs' worth for breeding as it has been stated before that there are lots of homeless pitbulls in shelters. I also believe that the 'breeder' should do their part in rescue whether it be through donations or fostering the breed that they are also adding to the population of.

    I am also going to mark on the topic of nothing getting a pitbull from the shelter because of their issues.... Any dog can have issues, people make a bigger deal of it because of the breed. It is a not a dog for everyone, if you cant deal with the slightest bit of issues, especially something as simple as socialization than you shouldnt own a pitbull maybe not even a dog in general. There is no reason not to get a pitbull from the shelter even though you dont know the lineage (even though lots are turned in with papers) or history. With this breed it doesn't matter! And what does lineage matter if they are spayed and neutered? They are an easily trained dog and if you have issues with socialization that can be fixed, especially with people. I dont want anyone coming on here and reading all the negative things about adopting a pitbull from the shelter because it might have 'issues'. They are wonderful dogs and I do pitbull rescue where I get all these wonderful dogs from shelters. I have had issues but it is mostly because of the owners ignorance but nothing that wasnt worked through to have the loving social dogs I have today. I am not against buying from a reputable breeder (see definition above) but if you are considering a rescue pitbull go for it. Nothing a little training wont fix or adopting a puppy if you want to start 'fresh'.

    Good luck with the puppies. They are adorable. I hope they find loving responsible forever homes!

    Thank you! I know I didn't say it well, but at least SOMEBODY did. Although, I don't agree with breeding at all......especially dogs that are banned in whole states and have enough problems finding and keeping homes with good and responsible owners. Just because a dog has papers doesn't mean it should, or needs to be bred. Has this dog placed in shows? Are she and the father CGCs? Papers just don't cut it. Sorry.

    Thank you. I believe in more than just papers and titles as well. I think all dogs need to be health tested (heart, hips and eyes). There are just too many dogs out there to breed anything with papers. Or even a dog who is champion lined. A champion sire can and will throw not so great looking puppies. And then I think a good breeder will health test the puppies as well. A breeder I know that breeds labs has puppies eyes tested at 7 weeks to make sure they dont carry anything. Parents are tested for hips, heart, and eyes. They are also tested to see if they carry the myopathy gene. If she doesnt have a quality animal no matter how well they do in trials she doesnt breed them.

    Also there is a lot of reputable pitbull breeder out there that show their dogs or their dogs are titled and compete in many different activities that are not breeding their dogs for the simple fact that pitbull are being overly bred these days, it is a fact. Go to a shelter or rescue groups and you will see that most of their dogs are pitbulls.

    Re: Puppies!!!

    Breeding Pits seems fine to me as long as puppies are going to good homes.

    I am all for getting shelter dogs, that's my style.

    But, just because pits (and other dogs) are being euthanized in shelters doesn't mean you should refrain from breeding. Its always nice to save a life but not everyone wants a dog from a shelter. I don't think anyone is obligated to save a dog unless they want to. Breeding is a beautiful thing, as long as it is done responsibly.

    Re: Puppies!!!

    You posted these pictures just to show off some cute bundles of joy and they are adorable! And mom seems to be doing a great job. I just love that color on a dog, especially pits.

    Any chance of you posting a picture of the father?

    Nice puppys. Some people have no choice in getting a shelter dog some of the pounds around here kill the pitbulls and rotties when the come in just because of the breed.

    Every reptile here gets put down when they come in
