			<content:encoded><![CDATA[I love Steele like he was my baby... well he is my baby. People tell me I have more pics of him then I even have of myself. I really don't like to take pics of myself but I do like taking pics of Steele. Ever since I got Steele or better yet since I know my friend's dog Sapphire was having her litter I just started looking up all I can about APBT and dogs in general. I like dogs and APBT specificly but now that I got my first with papers its become my biggest hobby. like I looked up all types of different foods and treats and toys, so I can find what is really good and best for my dog. I also have been and still learning a lot about different types of breeds and bloodlines and I just think its a really good hobby. Ohhh I also try to find and learn ways to train Steele, I just want to do so much with him. I guess what got my typing this is that I was thinking how good and well behaved Steele is, like I can walk him with out a leash (I still use a leash most of the time) but what I mean is that I live in a apartment complex so when I go take him outside I don't even really need a leash. Steele listens to me and I don't have any trouble when people or other pets walk by. He motivates me to keep on running hard when we go for runs and at the house he always wants to lay on my lap or just be by me. I guess what I just want to say is I really enjoy the quality time me my wife and Steele spend together.<br /><br />APBT is the best]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[I'm sure I will get tons of negative feedback on this one but it's my thought on overpopulation of this breed...<br /><br />There is so much BSL in the US.  I think that we can use it to our advantage.  I think the breed should be banned, only to trash breeders and bad owners.  <br /><br />I believe that we can cut way down if we make it illegal to breed unless you are producing show quality dogs.  I know there is a lot of controversy with this because many registries do not do shows, like the APBR.  Well, now is the time to start organizing shows and such within out groups.  This will make people respect their dogs more, if they have to show!  This way people will make sure they breed to bring out good traits!  <br /><br />Too many people get a pit and then think it needs to be bred!  For those who won't or can't show their dogs, the dogs shoud be altered.  I think this would cut way down on the population of flawed dogs and dogs all together.  <br /><br />Just think of it...you go to a breeder now and some of the puppies are living in horrible living conditions!  Well, with my idea, they would also have to do inspections quarterly.  This would cut down on the gruesome living quarters and so many puppies with diseases.  <br /><br />Some breeders produce show-quality dogs but don't show...maybe if their offspring are being shown then they can be an exception to the rule.  They are producing good-quality dogs...<br /><br />Love it or hate it...it's just an idea.]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[i just got back from the dog park with my pup, and there was a lady there with a springer Spaniel.  She told me she wasnt really sure about pitbulls because her dog was in the yard one day and a pitbull ran upo and mauled her dog to where it was really hard to get them apart.  Every since then she has been leary and her dog is really shy now.  I talked for her awhile and told her its all inhow the dog is raised it is not the breed and asked if would be ok if my pup played with her dog.  After a little hesitation she agreed.  Our dogs had so much fun and my dog was so gentle with her's that she told me, "wow i never thought I would say this but he is a sweet dog, and I guess it is on how they are raised."  Made me feel good to change one person's mind about the breed today <img src="http://pitbullsocial.com/file/pic/emoticon/default/smile.png" alt="Smile" title="Smile" class="v_middle" />]]></content:encoded>

			<title>What do you breed for?</title>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[I have seen so many people breeding pit bulls.  Some breed for good reasons and some only to make a quick buck.  I want to know what you breed for.  Let's be completely honest!<br /><br />I started out breeding after I did tons of research on the breed and owned a few pits for a while first.  My first breeding was done because I wanted to see what my male and female would create.  Well, I liked what I saw.  I kept a female from that breeding.  <br /><br />My second litter was later that year.  I actually picked up a female that had already been bred.  She was basically a rescue so I don't really claim that as my production because I did not have choice in studs, probably would not have bred her to begin with.<br /><br />My third litter was done to produce the perfect family dog that is also great quality.  The parents are excellent with kids and dogs.  They created exactly what I was looking for!  The pups all went to great homes and I still get updates!!<br /><br />My fourth litter was accidental but still produced some clean bullies that are wonderful family pets and still have drive!!!<br /><br />This last litter was accidental and the ma has been spayed.  She also produced my third litter and, again, created exactly what I wanted!!  These pups all are awesome and making wonderful family pets!<br /><br />I recently did a breeding with my UKC female.  Pups are due at the end of april.  This breeding was done to create clean bullies that are show quality for the UKC as well as the ABKC.  The perfect mix of American Bully and UKC Show.<br /><br />Now, when I breed, I have a reason for breeding.  I don't care about the money aspect of it.  I keep at least one pup off of every litter.  If they can't be here with me they go out on co-own.  I have a purpose for breeding.  Some just breed litter after litter and don't keep any of their productions.  What's the point of breeding if you have no reason, other than money?  It's pure greed!  It's sad.  Too many puppies are being euthanized and abused by this type of greed and carelessness.  <br /><br />If I ever have puppies that aren't selling I keep them until they do.  If I have puppies that need rehomed, after I sell them, I ALWAYS take them back!  I also take in unwanted dogs and pups and find them good homes when nobody else can.<br /><br />What do you do for the breed?<br /><br />Just a good topic I would like to see what others have to say about this.]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded>Well PitBull Social I am beyond pissed right now. Last night miki took the dogs out to use the restroom and at 1130 pm a neighbor was walking in my yard so chomper barked at him and ran towards him so he jumped on a neighbors car. This morning the dog man comes by and all of a sudden chomper is hazardous animal and had to be microchipped, spayed, and something else with in ten days. this is total bullshit and excuse my language. This guy is a neighbor he has been around the dogs since they were pups and his ass should not have been in my yard anyway.</content:encoded>

			<content:encoded>I dont know how many times I have came across people who see my dog and ask what breed it is,Then when you say pitbull they cringe like your dog is diseased or something,Do people not realize that pitbulls have the most potential to be the most loving and loyal companions than any other breed? Or dont they realize that its not just pitbulls who have had incidents where they become aggressive? I mean really people,ANY dog who is abused or treated badly or used for fighting could become aggressive not just pitbulls,But it is just ignorant people who spread these ridiculous stories about how pitbulls are bad and refuse to see that even the smallest dog treated wrongly will do the same.Why cant they just realize that its not the breed of the dog but the owner and how they treat them???? I know im only one person but if i can ill do my best to make people see the breed for what it really is and not what some have made it seem to be!!! I think thats what all of us as pitbull owners and breeders are trying to accomplish,So to everyone who feels the same,just keep pushing and maybe some people will take time and figure out that pitbulls are not crazed wild animals,but companions who strive to be the best they can be for their loving owner.Everyone keep on with the good work and when you come across someone with these views or beliefs just laugh and tell them they dont know what they are missing!</content:encoded>

I suppose it WAS fresh from the store not even five minutes old, lol, and I am wondering to myself, as I portion six cases of slimy bloody chicken necks (which is 240 POUNDS! in case ya didnt know: ) into little plastic baggies, WHY am I going thru all of this and WHY didnt I just grab some Ole Roy and be done with it and I realize these are the times you know its love... Like last night wading out thru the puddles in my pj's in the middle of the night without any shoes because my 'honeymooners' had managed to rock n roll there house right off its platform and were just standing there patheticly in the rain looking at the house, lol...<br /><br />how bout you?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[I have another topic that completely baffles me to this day. Why is it when someone wants to buy a so called good quality pitbull they start right off online at these kennels that ask so high of prices that not many can afford to buy these high quality pits when they could start looking at their local pounds and dog shelters? Me and my fiance are constantly looking for new quality pitbulls being breeders and the first place we look is our local pound and spca. So what the pit may not have registration papers but hey we pay apbr and put some money into this pit someone else gave up or forgot and its an investment and walla we got registration papers and a lil more of a bond with our pitbull. And we have bought alot of pitbulls for our kennel and all came from the pound except for our ADBA/APBR dual registered female Athena and she was eight hundred buying from some one who payed alot more from a kennel and all our shelter pits were excellent quality great companions loveable and have all found new homes to take care of them since coming to us. And they all together cost less than what it cost to buy Athena or would have to buy a "kennel" quality pit. We have three boys and not one of our pound pits has ever been anything less than their best friend and more. Im not knocking kennels because i am a breeder on a startup but why pass up pound pits just because they arent registered or arent from a certified kennel? I am trying to make it to top tier level breeding and know my prices will raise once i get going full scale because it will cost alot more to maintain our dogs and the kennel plus to market our puppies but i always have and always will when looking for a new pitbull whether for our kennel for breeding purposes or just as a family companion start with our local pounds and try and help the forgotten pits find a second chance.]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded>Why is it wherever i go everyone loves to see our pups but says they would never own one because they are pitbulls? Why do most of your everyday people believe the hype of pitbulls being ferocious and volatile etc.? They are the complete opposite. I am a breeder and i find my biggest joys in finding our puppies good homes to loving owners. I love being able to see the pup sometime down the road and say hey i bred that pup look how he/she turned out and hey that pup makes the breed look good. But I hate when i turn around and see that one of my pups is listed online at a local shelter for adoption because the owner didnt want them anymore for whatever reason. Why get a pit pup if your not willing to stand by them? They are great dogs and a spectacular breed. Yeah they are strong and hyper and so much more but thats why we love them and if you train them right thy will be a life long companion. So why do people get them if at the first sign of obstinance or hard headedness which is a pit they wanna ditch them?And why if a person has a bad view point on pits must they pass their opinions along as fact an turn others off to pits before they get to know the breed? Why Is It? Please give me some feedback I am a lifelong pit owner and a recently started breeder so i have my own views and answers just curious what yall think on these questions.</content:encoded>
