How do people get their pits to be so stocky and muscular?

Italiana2683 @Italiana2683 (87) • United States 10 May 07

I see a lot of pictures from breeders of pits who are very stocky and muscular and was wondering if this is due to breeding or meds? Please tell me if you know

ButtrflyDreams Many "pit bulls" are misbred. They aren't supposed to be big & stocky. They are supposed to be small, lean, muscular & agile. The max weight of a Pit Bull is supposed to be around 65 lbs. So it does have to do with breeding, but that breeding is with other...

Are Pit Bulls banned in your area?

Gwatson @Gwatson (58) • United States 21 Aug 07

Pit Bulls are not expressly banned in my town, but the insurance requirement is enough to discourage some people ($100,000). Oddly enough, the dangerous dogs in my town lately have been dogs in the Spitz and small Terrier (not...

ButtrflyDreams Fortunately I live in an area that is very pit bull friendly. There are a lot of people around here that have them. I happen to have 2 myself. I love the breed & I think it's sad that they are so misunderstood. I also think it's pathetic that so many people...

Hip problems in pit bulls?

scorpiobabes @scorpiobabes (7225) • United States 24 Apr 07

My baby Floyd has something wrong with his right hip--his right rear foot slides out when he's turning a corner in the kitchen. I know that the floor is slippery (he doesn't have this problem outside or on carpet) and I'm...

ButtrflyDreams Sometimes a pittie's hips can go in odd angles when they're trying to get their balance or stay on their feet. Their hips will look like they're out of joint or whatever but they're really not. He's probably fine, but see what your vet says. :)

ButtrflyDreams It sounds like the dogs just needs to be trained. I recomend crate training it so that while you're not at home, or when you can't pay complete attention to it, it can be in the crate & not destroying everything. I'm sure the dog would benefit from some basic...

ButtrflyDreams I haven't heard this...but usually this is called a breed ban. It's where they ban certain breeds (usually "pit bulls") from being allowed in whatever area the law is for. If the law is passed, you either have to move, give your dogs to someone outside of the...

ButtrflyDreams Pit Bulls are awesome dogs. It's great that you are thinking about getting one. :) I have 3 pure ones & 1 that is 1/2 Lab. The biggest thing to look for is the breeding. If the parents are over 55lbs(female) & 65lbs(male), it's not a pure American Pit Bull...
