Ok gonna throw a couple post in here.
I use to breed pits, it was handled by the GF. Gave her some extra money when I was gone.
Had 1 male he was a Champion Danger Zone pit weighed a freaking 115lb with a 23 inch head. And Seriously when I use to sell the pups,I'd put him in the back of my Silverado and Traffic would stop on 31 in Corsicana.
Next I breeded him with a Jericho Dream Weaver Grand Daughter , hard has Hell dog to get cause Grand Pa was a Best in Show Dog.
Next I had another female, a True Red Danger Zone, mean has Hell to stranger's but always listened to my commands and was loving has Hell around the family.
So I've always keep my babies in the house and then there'sa knock at the door lol.
Old lady and kids are gone,we only had 1 vehicle at the time and house was dark.I was in the bedroom of a 3500 square ft house..
I had Klipish speaker that were like 4ft high by the front door 1 of them ,kept my Spring 45 with 225 grain on it.
So this Awhole knocks, my pits immediately surround me. The Girls go to each side and my male goes directly in front of me,I'm like etc.
I grab the gun open the door and tell this assclown I'll shot you so you don't feel the dogs ripping you apart.
And because I lived in a small town, 2 days later I read these same Awholes were robbing folks.
Moral of the story Pits Dogs have a 6th sense. Pay attention how your dog acts to a knock at the door or a stranger.
