i didnt claim to be an expert on this specific breed
i was referring to breeding dogs in general

i wasnt attacking you (seedless)

i am just mad that this guy does not know what he is doing and is about to breed a dog (whether it is a pit bull or not). that is all. sorry you took that that way. lets and make up

i think we're all just looking out for the welfare of these animals
and the breed in general

if you are going to breed the dog, the best thing to do it look stud service, so you can get a guarantee on the breeding, most likely best temperment, not just a superfically healthy stud, etc.

"fyi, the breed is a fight breed"

actually, historically it's a hunting dog, not a "fight breed"...just because it's been used for fighting in the past (and present, of course) does NOT mean that it's primary purpose (the reason it was bred in the first place) was for fighting

and seedless, you can kiss my fuzzy arse, i've been a part of dog breeding since i was 2, and my 6 years working with them in a "professional" capacity trumps your pathetic two years, so i'll go ahead and say my opinion carries more weight, k? k.

that said, i agree that this guy shouldn't be breeding them because there's absolutely no point in breeding pits...at least we bred dogs for an actual purpose

^ all of that i know... i know that they were originally used as hounds, because the oldest material that they have on the dogs are paintings of them hunting. and if you think you opinion carries more weight, i don't care, i just know that i my opinion can be backed-up. anyway, i am more breed specific, so you can be too. 2 years, or six years is not that much difference, in terms of knowledge gained on the job at a vet clinic, since it is repetative in nature , eg blood collection, seeing the same group of patients, etc, etc and you mention professional capacity, i worked at a vet clinic and a research lab... are those not professional capacities? maybe not, but oh well, i guess i am an idiot. please go back and read the thread good before pwning yourself again.

for the people who think "if I raise my dog right they will be fine," you need to think again...

the way a dog is bread is just as important, if not more important, than the specifics of raising it...

my uncle has owned two rottweilers as long as I have been alive and he always get his dogs from a championship line. He does months and months of research to find the best dogs by the best breeders... In fact, he is flying to Germany later in the year to pick up his newest rottweiler from a renowned breeder who only breeds with championship lines...

it is like making a cake... you need all of the ingredients and conditions to be perfect for the cake to come out right...

Well North, I guess you may just have to take matters in your own hands haha

instead of looking for homes for unborn pits why don' you find some shelter dogs homes. I don't even know where to start. Please don't breed your pit bull. If you have to breed your dog to see the miracle or birth then you should have to visit an animal control facility and watch an unwanted puppy be euthanized. Either lethal injection or the gas chamber. The gas chamber is a horrible and cruel death. PLEASE DON'T BREED YOUR DOG! IT IS SOOO STUPID!

I just want to say that breeding expensive dogs is just another way to appeal to a certain market and make profit for yourself.

It's like saying "you shouldn't bake yourself a cake, there's poor girl scouts on Western selling cakes as a non-profit fund raising event".

So let the person breed his/her dog if they choose to. Yes, there's poor dogs in shelter. People who can afford full-blooded Pits don't give a rat's ass.

I just don't believe in making money off of animals. Tell the 4 "potential" homes you have for the unborn puppies to refer to this site.
