You've made up your mind. !t's the American Pit Bull Terrier you want as your companion.
Are you ready for this breed?
Does your lifestyle fit the American Pit Bull Terrier lifestyle?
These dogs are packed with energy from head to toe and crave a good run like a champion athlete.
Exercise is critical to a healthy, happy bulldog. High energy is their middle name and is a large part of their personalities.
Play, work, and activity are things you must be able to give these dogs if you're a couch potato you should find another breed to live with.
Do you have the security?
Able to leap tall fences with a single bound, dig under them with amazing speed and stealth, and unlock gates that adult people would have trouble with American Pit Bull Terriers are the Houdini's of the canine world.
Escape will happen if you don't take the precautions to secure their living area.
You should have 6' privacy fence, beware of dog signs, hot wiring at the top and bottom of the fence, out door housing that keeps them out of the sun (even if they live indoors), and supervision are required for these dogs.
You can't leave them alone for long outside because one of two things may happen:
1. They escape.
2. They're stolen. Page + of 9 Copyright 2005-2006 PitBullLovers.com. Nann Nedia 8 Publishing. All Rights Reserved. Are you prepared for the scrutiny of neighbors and friends?
American Pit Bull Terriers are notorious. They have a bad name and the misinformed public is out to get them. !t seems like everyday another "Baby mauled by pit bull" story runs, diminishing your choice of breed.
People will dislike you for your choice. Some may even try to kill your dog. Others will direct comments at you, vulgar, hateful comments, and friends and family may also be in conflict with your choice.
Be prepared for some rude behavior and protect your dog by teaching food refusal from strangers.
Can you train your dog?
There are two methods of training. One is to train your dog by showing it how to sit and lay down and then quitting.
The other lasts forever. Real training is life long training that starts when the puppy arrives at your home and ends with death.
Unless you're prepared to work with your dog 5-10-15 minutes per day, everyday, all week, every week, all year, every year, you may want to rethink your decision to get a Pit Bulldog.
Actually, if you're not prepared to train your dog, you should rethink getting any dog. Training is a fact of life and must be done in order to prevent a lot of trouble down the road.
!f you can not control your dog, you don't need one.
Can you afford them?
Dog food, vet bills, training, leashes and collars, and dog houses all cost money. Noney you may not have right now. A quality dog food can cost as much as $800 per year. Do you have this kind of extra money to spend on food? !f not, wait until you do before you bring home that puppy Page 5 of 9 Copyright 2005-2006 PitBullLovers.com. Nann Nedia 8 Publishing. All Rights Reserved. Do you want a American Pit Bull Terrier to impress people?
!f this is the case, stop! Do not, ! repeat, do not bring one home. You're doing yourself and the dog a great injustice.
American Pit Bull Terriers are in demand because of their all around strength, agility, great looks, and mystic. Breeders are pumping puppies out like unleaded gasoline. Puppies are being neglected and bad breeding practices are producing unstable dogs. Beware before you make any final decisions.
!f ! may point you in a different direction. Every day there are thousands of great bulldogs put down because no one will adopt them or they are deemed "unadoptable" by shelters.
Consider a Rescue Dog.
People who love this breed have created rescues for these dogs and hundreds of dogs are available for adoption.
Rescues are a win-win-win way to go. You give a dog that would otherwise not have a home, a home. You give your money (which in most cases is a small adoption fee) to the rescue so they can continue their work, and you get an awesome dog that will more than likely deliver more than any pure-bred dog could on their best day.
Rescue is a great option if you have another dog or animal as well. Reputable rescue organizations test their dogs with other dogs, other animals, and they evaluate them so they can place them in homes which match their needs.

Pit Bulls are high energy dogs that need some way of burning off that pinned up energy. Even a short 10-15 minute walk or game of fetch in the backyard will help burn off energy that can lead to behavior problems. 2. Never leave pit bulls alone with other dogs {or any animal). Even if you're dog gets along great 99.9 of the time with other animals the Pit Bull is known for animal aggression and it is possible something will happen. A good piece of advice ! received a long time ago was, never trust your Pit Bull not to fight. 3. Always have your dog on a leash in public. Nost if not all towns, cities and states have leash laws. Obey these laws. This will help people see your dog in a positive light and keep accidents like getting hit by passing cars from occurring. 4. Always supervise your dogs and never allow them to roam free. Loose dogs are often hurt by cruel people and accidents can happen as well. Always know where your dog is. 5. Supervise your dog with small children. This is a must. Small children are often hurt by dogs not out of angry, but because dogs can scratch them, step on them, and otherwise injure them. 6. Spay or Neuter your dog. Unless you plan on doing something where the dog can not be spayed or neutered get it done. This will reduce accidental breeding and stop roaming males from getting loose. 7. Train your dog. Take your dog to obedience classes or hire a private trainer to help you train your dog. This is very important for Pit Bull owners. !f you can not control your dog bad things will eventually happen. Get your dog into training as soon as possible. S. Avoid dog parks. While your Pit Bull is a puppy and up to date on all their shots going to a dog park isn't a bad idea. However, when the dog gets older it turns into a bad idea. Because you have a Pit Bull is not the main reason for not going to places like these. Page 7 of 9 Copyright 2005-2006 PitBullLovers.com. Nann Nedia 8 Publishing. All Rights Reserved. Rather it's because other dogs and owners are not responsible and let their dogs run around like jackasses. This can cause friction between your dog and another dog at the park. Not a good scenario. 9. Socialize your dog. Take your dog to as many places as you can, meet new people and while they are young meet as many other dogs as possible. Socializing your Pit Bull will help curb any future problems that might occur. 10. Keep your dog properly confined. Pit Bulls are known to be great escape artist. Nake sure you have the means to keep them in your yard and properly confined. !nstalling a six foot privacy fence is not a bad idea either
Final Thoughts ! would like to end this report with these final thoughts. First of all ! ask everyone seeking to share their life with the American Pit Bull Terrier to do as much research as they can before they purchase or adopt a dog. Today more than ever you need to sit down and think through your decision before you end up with a dog in your home. Everyone loses in these situations and the dogs are left to fend for themselves by owners who leave them at the shelter or drop them off at a rescue somewhere. !f you are not totally committed to keep your dog for its entire life then ! would suggest you choose another breed. ! understand these things happen and ! sympathize with everyone of these situations ! really do. But ! also believe you should think about such things before making a commitment to an animal that will rely on you for love and attention, food and water, and shelter. !f you are not 100 capable of dealing with every single problem or situation that arises, then you should not get an American Pit Bull Terrier. !f you are capable and you have done as much research about the breed as you can then by all means, become part of the elite dog loving group that shares their life with these clown like super athletes.
