EDIT: HES LOOKIN FOR A PITTBULL PUP.
get an australian shepherd
Go to the animal shelter. They have lots to choose from and unless you’re really big about getting a pure breed they’ll have something that will be a great companion.
x2. Definitely save an animal from a shelter first if you can.
yea he wants like a pug or something. but he’s gonna go see what they have maybe one will change his mind
ok he said hes lookin for pit pups
Well, there should be about 11ty billion of those in rescue shelters.
And also, your buddy lives in an apartment? Pits aren’t good dogs for confined areas like that.
I have a “pit bull”. Rescued from North Side Shelter 2 years ago, it was 10 months old. Best dog in the world!
what makes you say that??? did you own a pit in an apartment to know it makes it a ‘bad dog’??? sounds like a dumb statement… my sister raised her pit in a duplex’d house… her roommate raised two in a townhouse… all the dogs are healthy and active, no problems and they aren’t ‘bad’…
anyway…
go to a shelter and rescue a dog… that would be great…
if you want a pure bred I can get you a phone # for american terriers…
Actually, dickface, I have first hand knowledge of it. One of my best friends lived in an apartment in Beechview with a Pit and it was too active and too big to be in his apartment. He ended up having to leave it at his parents a couple miles away for about 3 months until he could get out of his lease without a huge penalty.
A duplex and townhouse are far different than an apartment. I grew up in a duplex with a Rottweiler and it was easy. Room enough in the house, and a yard out back for it to stretch out a little bit. An apartment is a far different beast.
Edit - Here is some info from a dog breeding website regarding Pits.
“The American Pit Bull terrier is not a good dog for apartment or small living quarters. These dogs tend to be very active indoors, and need the room to move and exercise themselves at all times. Apartments can be sufficient if the dog is exercised numerous times a day, but if they are not exercised they can be destructive. These dogs also prefer warm climates, as their coat and build is not designed to withstand the colder climates in the upper Midwest and Northeast.”
ok… what i gathered is that
-
no, you did not raise a pit bull in an apartment to know these things first hand.
-
you can cut and paste information from websites.
thanks… now lets not ruin a thread with needless bickering… my pitbull was raised in a 875sq/ft townhouse until he was 3 years old… his sister was raised in the same townhouse and moved onto an apartment about 50sq/ft bigger. any ‘large’ dog needs room for exercise and to play… i would hope that’s obvious prior to raising a pet…
also, what is different between a townhouse and a duplex and an apartment??? i dunno…stairs and basements??? you can get all defensive and try to ‘own’ me… but your work will go unheard… i could care less about your friends situations or your awesome knowledge of internet searching and cutting and pasting. go fuck yourself comes to mind… but in the end, i’d rather just see this guy save a dog from any humane society or give a good home to a new puppy.
so … once again… if you (original poster or your friend) need some information or real life expereince with pit bulls, raising pit bulls in a smaller than suggested area, information to a breeder, or if you want to meet one… just let me know… if you need someone to search the internet and copy and paste for you… contact bravada… he seems proficient at it :kekegay:
i :love: pittspeed in the winter
Actually, genius, first hand knowledge is talking directly to the person or witnessing in person the incident happening. Say, for instance, you fucked someone in the ass, and told me. I now have first hand knowledge that you are, indeed, an ass-fucker. I was at this apartment numerous times, I’ve seen the problems the dog caused being in an area without a lot of room and without a yard to exercise in.
Moving right along, the difference between a duplex/townhouse and an apartment is typically a duplex or townhouse has TWO floors, therefore, double the living space, than an apartment does. Also, a townhouse or duplex usually, but not always, has a yard. It may be a small yard, but its still somewhere for the dog to get outside to go to the bathroom without the owner having to walk it.
In regards to large dogs needing lots of room to run and play, that is not the case. A greyhound is a great apartment dog, contrary to popular belief, because they do not need any exercise at all. They are just about the laziest dogs around. My small beagles, on the other hand, would be terrible in an apartment. They are too hyper and active and need to be outside running around, and also have the room in my house to run around. My 1400 sq/ft house is almost too small for them.
I didn’t sit here and say that every situation is locked down and that all Pits must absolutely not live in apartments, I merely said that it would probably be best if that Pit was not in an apartment as they typically require more space than an apartment allows.
Now, if you’ll just move right along to the Gucci or Fendi portion of the forums, that would be great, that way you can bestow upon us your expertise in the purse area. Kthxbye.
i volunteer at animal friends and there are quite a few pitbulls that come and go through there. it’s not going to be as easy to find one as its not like they’re raised/ordered for the shelter.
sorry, i don’t date… fag
Moving right along,
sq/ft is sq/ft… pour your 12oz miller light into one cup or two, you still have 12oz of shitty beer

:doh: … i still hope he rescues a pit and gives it a home… a dog outlives an apartment lease
ok he lives in a apartment, but is moving out in 3 months. He wants a pit bull pup no more then like 6months old if that. Wants a puppy
Pugs FTW.
I got 2 of 'em, great dogs for apartments or houses.
Pit Bulls require a lot of attention. You have to dedicate a lot of time to them (walks, tug-o-war, fetch). They have an extraordinary amount of energy. If you take the time to tire them out, they are great pets. If you expect them to expend their energy on their own, you’re in trouble. “there is nothing more destuctive than a pit-bull that is alone and bored”. I’m not trying to discourage anyone. I love mine and she loves us. You just have to be sure you have time for it.
