They will test your patients but you will have the best dog if you invest the time in training
ain't that the truth.. they are not for everyone

And once he had a run in or cross eye with another dog he always went after them after that. I kept a VERY close eye on him, he never left 5 foot from my body outside our fence and was harnessed not collared because he would choke himself to death with a collar...psycho freak lol

Re: Getting this Puppy Pitbull today
my first pit was a inbred ross red devil female she was 100mph and hell on wheels. she would wake me up at 3am with s squeaky toy. she would jump on me in the bed at 3am squeaking that toy.. you knock her off the bed she would jump back on it shaking it and ready to go again she was a trip never a dull moment. the male i had was a red devil/red boy cross he was laid back almost jumped out the window of my truck to go after another dog.. you never left your guard down with them

They Named her PICKLES at the rescue but that name met with mixed reviews. She answeres to Honey, Pickles and Smiley. We are probably going to name her Smiley. I got a dog named Happy and Smiley and Happy is pretty damn funny. Jack Lalanne had two white german shepherds, Smiley and Happy. So Im probably going with Smiley

She's been amazing. She is getting totally socialized around hundreds of people. I think she will be the perfect dog for this job of meeting the public everyday. I am a little worried about people who naturally fear the sight of a pitbull. Hopefully I can dispell some myths with the public. My dogs meet literally thousands of people a year.

You most certainly WILL dispell myths. Most people that fear or loath pitbulls have never been around one OR they have only had experience with someone's mishandled dog. Be an ambassador, socialize her educate people about their history good and bad and show them the deed should be punished, not an entire breed.
