My dog came back as an American Staffordshire terrier mix. Do you ever catagorize dogs as a "pitbull."

I did before I was educated about the difference between American Staffordshire terrier and the pit bull terrier. My dog is a mix between the American Staffordshire and a German Shepard. Can see both in my Anie

So did mine. There is a fine distinction between the American Staffordshire terrier, American pit bull terrier, and Staffordshire bull terrier. Go online to see the difference. They are from different blood lines but many people lump them all together as pit bulls. There is really no such dog breed as a pit bull breed.

I don't think so, I have a blue nose pitbull thats a little taller than regular pits and its perfect for him.

Ditto the first response. Video states the training is for all types of dogs except PitBulls. (He explains why in the video.)

My dog is a 5.5 pitbull when i was giving him bully max i did notice when he would walk up the steps his back and neck were more muscular. It gave him diarrhea so i stopped giving it to him. I recommend boiling chicken and giving him boiled chicken and raw egg mixed in his food. Dont dump the chicken broth feed him that too. Just try upping his protein intake and making sure hes getting daily exercise. Depending on how old he is it might just be how its going to be. Just like when we get old taking body building supplements isnt going to do much when your 90 lol. Good luck. Talk to your vet about options.

I have a "mutt" who is a lab and pit bull mix...although the vet. doubts this mixture...she is medium sized and currently weighs 60 bounds and 5+ years.. She has a big back yard to roam free in and when loose she can have selective hearing, but minds well with this lease. I have used many collars and Easy Walker on her, but both of us like the Slip Lease the best....It is easy to get on and easy to pull off....best of all she does not fight it. Hope this is helpful.....

Yes!! I have three pit bulls and they love it! I stuff them with peanut butter and freeze. Will keep them busy for a long time

Thank you I appreciate the input. The view from the people who have responded so far is quite mixed. I guess it ultimately comes down to the dog. I have a very active Brittany Spaniel and I fear she is just too head strong to stop this behavior but will give it a try.

I have never tried defending myself against a pitbull but very sure that if it could easily stop a full sized German Shepard then it could do the same thing to a pitbull. Be reminded that a 300,000 volt zap to the dog's head could cause a fatal injury.

My 55 & 45 lb. Pit mixes are fine with them. The collar has holes almost the whole way around. You could cut the extra off as its just plastic. I saw them in UAE on pit bull puppies, certainly less than 30lbs. at a training session, so I believe they would be fine. My pit/hound mix responds to the vibration & the other is a little more stubborn, needing the static shock. I had back surgery & these collars allow me to control them both on & off the leash. It has also helped to stop unwanted behavior with only a couple of zaps.

Not all the time. Our extremely mixed pup came back with both parents, several grandparents and all great grandparents as just "Mixed", no breed specified.

What breed are your puppies and how old are they? If you can tell me that I can help you out a little better. I bought a large because we have a Cane Corso which is related to the mastiff breed and honesty I could of bought an extra large and it would of been better for her.

Our 65 lb. American Bulldog/Pit Mix destroys most all toys including some of the Kong Rubber ones. Got this one for him in December and he has just now destroyed it. But, I might add, he was only given it occasionally and did not "tug" with it daily. He loves it though and gave me that sad face when I tossed it in the garbage. I will purchase him another and hope that I can make it last a while.

Officially I'm not sure. However, my dog thinks its his baby so I wash often. :)

I pretty much think a DNA test will show if two animals of the same species are related. I don't know if this is a part of what the Wisdom folk do, but contact them to find out. Don't tell them the breed of the dogs and see if they can tell you what they are - unless they are reading this ........... the results for my dog were so unrealistic. Personally, I would save my money.

It used to in the beginning but I just bought one recently and it lasted about a week with my pit... The best thing so far I purchased so far for my pit that has lasted forever are kong treat toys...my pit is on a mission to completely destroy his toys so this has worked the best for us

Its a funny thing. Our Chihuahua and large mixed-breed hound never were afraid of any noises. All of a sudden they both became terrified of thunder, lightning, loud mufflers, motorcycles, etc. You know the type of noise. We purchased the Thunder Shirts and it seems that all those noises and weather have ceased. The dogs haven't had the chance to wear them yet! Honestly!

A lab has smooth, short hair. I have a mix between a lab and golden retriever and he sheds! :(
