The American Pit Bull Terrier has become a monster in the eyes of the legal system and a whole lot of families with children. In the last few years, Pit Bull attacks on children and adults have escalated out of control. Laws are being made and existing ones changed because of these vicious and sometimes deadly attacks. Irresponsible owners are paying fines and being jailed for improper restraint of their pets, that result in these attacks.
If a Pit Bull Terrier is trained to be mean and aggressive when it is a developing pup, then more than likely you will end up with a problem dog as an adult. Clandestine groups and gangs have been secretly training these dogs to fight for may years and are used in wagering as part of a huge underground business. When put in a “Fighting Ring” Pit Bulls will not stop fighting until either the fight is broken up, or one dog is dead.
If you plan on getting a Pit Bull Terrier as a family dog, do a little preliminary work before you decide on one. If you are choosing a puppy from a litter, pick one that is least aggressive to the others, and one that doesn’t jump up much. You would be surprised in what a difference that makes as the dog becomes an adult. After choosing your pup, make sure it gets a lot of social time with every member of the family. Provide plenty of mental stimulation and room for lots of exercise. These dogs need to burn off a lot of excess energy when they are growing.
Something that is real important that most people don’t think about is insurance issues. Check your home owners policy and see what kind of liability coverage (if any) you have for any incidents that would involve the family dog. Some policies have provisions for that, and on some it is an add-on. You might want to call your agent. You’ll also want to make sure you have a guide book written by experts for owning and caring for Pit Bulls exclusively, it might help with the insurance part.

An eviction takes at least 3 months to process…so you have at least that long, and you can choose to pay or not pay your rent so that you have a first, last and deposit..If they are legal in your city, then the owner is evicting your dog because if insurance costs..It makes a huge difference in the cost of her insurance to have a bully breed.
You might want to talk with her, and ask how much increase she is having to pay, and see if you can work something out. otherwise, unless you are breaking a lease, she can't get rid of you..
If you are not on a lease, but just month to month, she can give you notice to move, but, as I said, even though she may say..one month or else..she can't legally get you out for at least 3 months.
she has to file (expensive) and pay for someone to deliver the notice ( here, it is $500) So, if she thinks you are going to get rid of the dog, and you just play along while you search, you should have time..
If you email me your state and county, I can find the tenant laws for you
Pit Bulls are family friendly dogs. It's because people decide that it would be fun to train them too become involved in dog fighting and they become aggressive. They're not made that way they're dogs for that matter and they are loving pets! They shouldn't be outlawed we need to have better policing on dog fighting. By the way did you know that the most common dog bite is from a Goldren Retriever/lab. It's because of little kids pulling on tails,ears, etc…. that causes them too bite should we ban those dogs as well?
joannm: may be true that the AKC doesn't recognize the pit bull, but what they recognize is that this will start a huge trickle down effect, on their registry…less people spending their money registering litters, entering shows, let alone that this will open the door for other breeds. it is never ending.
everyone should be aware and a member of the Endangered Breed Association. they are one of the fore-fighters for anything like this…
Nice work, you did pretty good.
Take your reciept from when you bought the dog to the police or to a lawyer; or small claims court. If not, a notarized statement from the seller.
Otherwise, wish him luck
Incredible! He looks so life like. Just amazing…and what a beautiful subject
Excellent work. Pleasure to watch. Perfect music

doubtful that a law banning a breed of dog can protect the community from irresponsible dog owners, it is the irresponsible owners that need dragged out and euthanized
You’re really good man. You’ve got excellent talent.
Dont shoot it dont poison it. You will be the one in trouble if that happens. Contact the local ASPCA and tell them the story. They can have a order for the dog to where it has to wear a muzzle on walks and while near others….and if you dont want the dog near your house, tell the neighbors, if they dont listen, call the animal control on them and the dog. They will handle it. Make sure you copy everything you send them and date it, you can always take them to court
whoa!!it looks like a PICTURE!
ur an amazing painter!:D
Brilliant Willy, Just Brilliant =D
I don't own a pit bull, but I have worked with countless pit bulls at my local animal shelter. This is where I ultimately fell in love with them. All very sweet dogs, despite the abuse many of them have went through. They are big time kissers and wiggle-butts — watch out for that tail, and those lethal farts!
Great talent Der Mann.
hi pit lover of Oklahoma .that's good if you can do that for the breed .just answer hope you don't mind .i am in London and i have a staffordshire bull .if i can help i would.
It's the poor training that most of them receive. A pit bull should be very averse to human aggression, although it may always be a little off around other animals.
What I think most people don't take into account is, the pit bulls are first an animal, then a dog. They want food and shelter, then they want their doggie job to do, whether that's hunting, herding, or defense of their den. Then the breed comes in to play. But they can be trained not to fight, just as easily as they can to fight in the pits.
All the problems you mention contribute, but the main thing I wish people would do is take each dog individually. Instead of breed bans, have violent dog tracking, so that specific problem individuals can be taken out of public life.
