"Under Construction"
We depend on our dogs to make our site interesting, not on our site to make our dogs interesting!
I would like to make a statement for any Anti-Pit Bull people that might happen to visit our site.
By condemning the APBT, you are condemning a symbol of our Country's strength and an important part of our History. In the past, people admired the Courage, Strength and Tenacious Spirit of the APBT. We as Americans, should support this Magnificent Breed and preserve its place in History, rather than try to make it Extinct!
Unfortunately, our breed has attracted individuals that use these dogs for undesirable purposes, and uneducated breeders that are not selective about breeding for proper temperament, but you can't just point your finger at the APBT. Many other breeds are subject to the same bad breeding habits, and are worse in comparison, but an attack by a "Springer Spaniel" (the #1 biting dog), isn't "News Worthy". The media makes monsters of our entire breed, from a hand full of bad dogs that are for the most part, the result of irresponsible owners. In the hands of a responsible, educated breeder these dogs are unsurpassed. They excel at any task they are trained for, and with nothing more than love and affection they become great companions and protectors.
Sincerely, Mark Strand
Here is a picture of one of our so-called "Viscious Pit Bulls". Bonnie is letting this young kitten nurse on some dry titties.
This is Darcy, a daughter to our Bonnie, Sired by Gideon. Darcy is a perfect example of what we are striving to produce here at Pits in Paradise. Correct Structure, Awesome Temperament, Bully enough to get noticed, but not overdone. Darcy is excelling in Obedience training, as well as Tracking. She is definitely the "Total Package." A big "Thanks" to David Tucker, Darcy's proud owner, for taking such good care of one of our girls. Watch for Darcy in the Obedience ring in 2005.
This is Jada, owned by Patsy Phillips at Maverick Kennels. Jada is also out of Bonnie and Gideon. She is the first from the litter to finish as a UKC Champion, making Bonnie and Gideon proven producers. A big "Thanks" and "Congratulations" to Patsy!
Here at
Strand's Pits we are trying to do our part in promoting a positive outlook toward this awesome breed. We hope you like what you see while you're here. You can contact me at 817-988-6414.
