American Pit Bull Terrier

The american pit bull terrier originates from the introduction of english and irish pit terriers into america during the mass immigration of the 1800's. The english dog's originated from cross breeding between terrier and bulldog breeds, the irish dogs origins were shrouded in secrecy. The pit bull terriers brought to america had been bred for dog fighting using the terrier breeds killing instinct and the bulldogs tenacity and powerful muscled body, they had been bred to be loyal and accepting of their human masters and were considered family dogs. The introduction of pit bulls to america saw the breed develop as the breed was crossed with bigger dogs to produce the american pit bull terrier. Female/Male American Pitbull Terrier for sale

Many times I find people searching online for an American Pitbull Terrier breeder or kennel while they look for a puppy. However, most people who are looking for a quality pet or even show dog do not really know what to look for in a breeder. 

There is an abundance of pitbull kennels out there. Some who display ethical breeding standards while others just breed for fast money. It is very important when looking for the right puppy, to find the right breeder to purchase your puppy from. Best American Bully Puppies

Purchasing a puppy from a back-yard breeder is never a good idea. They breed for quantity NOT quality. If you are going to spend any money on a dog for pet or show, it is best to deal with knowledgeable breeders or registered kennels. That way you know you are going to get a good puppy that will develop into a healthy adult. 

Contrary to popular opinion these dogs are not wanton killing machines, they do have violent tendencies toward other dogs but are no more violent toward people than other dog breeds. They are loyal, obedient and good with children and families. They make excellent guard dogs and are generally good with other family pets including other dogs if they have been socialised with the other pets from puppy hood. American Bully Puppies for Sale
