Pit Bull Breeder Warning Signs To Look Out For

Monday, December 25, 2006 | Printer Friendly Printer Friendly

So want a Pit Bull. You like how they look, the way they act, and how they carry themselves. It is important to make sure that you are getting a purebred Pit Bull that looks like a Pit Bull and acts like a Pit Bull. You want to make sure that the dog you choose will live a healthy life. Be very cautious; there are lots of unsuitable Pit Bull breeders out there who care more about their profit than in proper breeding. Since you have chosen a special breed that has the bad luck of having inappropriate breeders, you need to take your time to carefully pick the Pit Bull that you deserve. In order to find that good Pit Bull, you need to find a good breeder. The hard part about finding a good breeder is that almost everyone who ever let two dogs of the same breed mate consider themselves as expert dog breeders. The disheartening reality is that Pit Bulls are too often bred by the wrong people for the wrong reasons. Here are the 7 step you need to be aware of when choosing the that Pit Bull breeder: 1. Pit Bull Breeders who treat their dogs with cruelty, disrespect, and apparent dislike. 2. Pit Bull Breeders who think Pit Bulls should be aggressive and raise them as a fighting dog rather than a good companion dog. 3. Pit Bull Breeders who are geared up and ready to send their puppies off to new buyers rather than before the puppies turn eight weeks old. 4. Pit Bull Breeders who sell cheap puppies. It takes a lot of funds and other resources in order to raise healthy puppies. Cheap puppies are usually cheap because the breeder did not take the necessary steps to breed and raise a healthy litter. You should expect to pay an average of $300 to $400 for a registered pet. For a show quality puppy, $400 to $600 is considered reasonable. Male and female should cost the same. 5. Look out for Pit Bull Breeders who have no photos, videotapes, or pedigree of both parents and of other relatives. An honest breeder should know about the family background of their breed. 6. Pit Bull Breeders who are unfamiliar with the common health problems and concerns associated with the breed. For example, the best Pit Bull breeders will have their dog’s hips evaluated and screened for hip dysplasia. 7. Be aware of Pit Bull Breeders who tell you that Pit Bulls are perfect for everyone. Pit Bulls are special dogs and need special owners.
