PITBULL INFORMATION

I get more emails from people seeking advice and PitBull Information than you could even imagine. I have taken the best and most shocking questions and answered them here. Originally, I had all the information on this one page, but now have split the information into a number of sub-pages to make it easier to browse the questions so you can find information on almost every aspect of PitBull ownership. If you are looking for information on PitBull Muscle Building you will want to read this: PITBULL MUSCLE BUILDING SECRETS 
The advice and information I supply below is based on years of my personal experience of owning, training, breeding, whelping and loving dozen of my Pitbull friends. The many tips and information I provide, involve my experience with PitBulls, although the information should translate over to many other dog breeds as well. The questions below are real emails that I have received and represent the most commonly asked and requested facts and information.
DO PITBULLS MAKE GOOD GUARD DOGS?
Vanessa from Odessa Texas asks Mr PitBull:
Dear Mr PitBull,I have been looking at your dogs for some time and love them and have decided to purchase one from you. I live in an area which is not very good. I have been considering getting a PitBull because they might scare the criminals away. So, are PitBulls good bodyguards? What is the best food to feed them? What information on pitbulls can you share?
Vanessa, Many are shocked to learn that a PitBull is not very well suited for guard work or as bodyguards. Pitbulls are too friendly toward people. Now I know that some professional trainers have had good success training PitBulls for this kind of work, but that is an exception to the norm. Think about it; what do police departments use? If you want a good guard dog, pick up a German Shepherd. And when I say German I mean German. Do not get an American bred GSD. You want a real German bred GSD as they are much better suited. Additionally, with all the negative information surrounding PitBull attacks, it just is not a wise thing for anyone outside of the highly trained and licensed professional to attempt to train a PitBull for this work. So as much as I would enjoy selling you a pitbull, I really must insist that you look at a different breed of dog.Concerning information on pitbull food, I suggest you read BEST DOG FOOD FOR PITBULLS
HOW TO ACQUIRE PAPERS FOR AN UNREGISTERED DOG
Randall From Kansas City asks Mr PitBull:
Dear Mr PitBull, I have a 7month old puppy I'm 99 percent sure he is a blue nose, how do i know, is there a way to check and possibly acquire papers for him?
Randall, Sounds like you have a nice dog. Without knowing his linage there is no way to say for sure what kind of PitBull he is. I can look at pictures and make a guess; more information is needed. So too, the only (legitimate) way to get papers is through the breeder. Both parents would have to have been registered with the registry either UKC, ABKC or ADBA. If one of the parents is not registered, you can not register your dog. Even if both are registered, without signed documentation from the breeder testifying to your puppy or dog being of descendant from a breeding he himself did, the dog cannot be registered. Not having papers for the dog does nothing to devalue your dog; he is still the same dog with or without papers. The only time the papers mean anything is if the dog was of breeding quality. In any event, without papers, a dog would not qualify to be bred. Click Here to Learn How to Register a Dog or a Pitbull 
INFORMATION ON PITBULL BLOODLINES
Randall from Scottsdale Arizona asks:
Dear Mr PitBull, I found your web site and thought you would know more about PitBulls than me. Have you ever heard of a razor edge gaff and boogey man mix, because I just got one. Is that a good pitbull bloodline to mix together? And is it worth getting papers on? I don't know much about pitbull bloodlines can you please fill me in on some information about that breed?
Randall, Congratulations on your new pitbull! Not familiar at all with boogey man pitbull bloodline. I am familiar with Razor Edge and Gaff, and they are two different styles of PitBulls. I would have to have information on the pitbull breeder and his reason for selecting such a pairing before a conclusion could be drawn as to the value of the dog. You need to talk to the breeder and find out information on what he was trying to do with the breeding. Then you will have to note as your pitbull matures to see if the goal was accomplished. If this was a breeding done by your typical backyard breeder, there more than likely was no goal or much thought put into the breeding and the pitbull breeding was done based more on the matter of convenience (hey you have a pitbull and so do I... lets breed them). As far as getting papers and the value: frankly, the papers are only of value if the pitbull is of breeding quality and you plan on breeding. Because of the current overpopulation of Pitbulls, most pitbulls are not of breeding quality and therefore responsible pitbull lovers are choosing to spay and neuter their pitbulls. In any event, I bet that with the two pitbull bloodlines I am familiar with, that the dog will make a fantastic pet. I hope you enjoy many years of companionship.
