BloodyFuFu The first Vicktory dog to pass his CGC exam!! Dec 8, 2008 4:03 PM Yay! Meet Oscar , he is the first of the Vicktory dogs to pass his canine good citizenship tests and as such is now eligible for adoption! Poor little guy got to retake his test after environmental hazards like stepping on thorns and sitting on fire ants. Any dog is capable of being a good dog, even those that had rough starts!
BloodyFuFu Vicktory Dogs Wine Collection Nov 12, 2008 6:57 AM I've been following the stories of 22 Vicktory Dogs (as the Vick dogs are being called now) who have been living at Best Friends . These dogs are so amazing and it makes me overjoyed to see the love they receive at Best Friends. In honor of Best Friends' 25th anniversary, and in honor of these wonderful dogs, Carivintâs Winery has a collection of Vicktory Dogs wine . All the bottles have labels featuring paintings of these 22 pretty pitties. I'm not a wine person, but I think this is awesome. The paintings on the labels were done by Best Friends' founder, Cyrus Mejia, and they are too adorable. I just thought a little good news never hurts. :)
TxRdRaider Clothing for Pit Bulls? Oct 10, 2008 12:10 PM Hi everyone, I'm new to the group, but was hoping someone could help. I recently saw a post on Rachael Ray's site with a picture of Isaboo in an adorable sweater. Since I live in Texas, my girl Princess doesn't usually need any, but we are taking her on our ski trip this year and thought it would be useful. Only problem is Petsmart, Petco and other stores in the area only carry tiny clothes for tiny dogs. Do any of ya'll clothe your pits in winter? If so where do you get quality clothing? Here's the picture of Isaboo from RR pet blog on her site. Isaboo Sweater

baltimoregal Responsible Pit Bull (hell, DOG) owners Aug 14, 2008 12:30 PM 1. DO NOT alter their animal's appearance for unnecessary reasons. This includes ear and tail docking. 2. Crate-train their animals. Veterinarians and trainers agree this is the easiest way to potty-train an animal, as well as prevent separation anxiety and destruction caused by teething and a puppy's natural chewing impulses, which often don't begin until a puppy is older. 3. DO NOT strike or otherwise physically punish a puppy. This is counterproductive and will eventually come back to make the puppy aggressive. 4. Socialize their animals early, and often- so they do not fear things. Before your puppy is 12 weeks old, make sure it has met other adults, children, and babies, as well as people of other races. Also make sure it has met dogs (that you know have had ALL VACCINATIONS) and cats, if possible. Take your pup for car rides and walks so they experience different sounds and smells. 5. DO NOT take their puppy to a dog park or dog "common area" before they've had all their vaccines (3 mos.). This exposes them to parvo, a devastating virus that is often deadly. 6. Exercise their puppy regularly- one hour of walking/heavy play per day is important once the puppy is past three months of age unless there are health problems. 7. DO NOT give their puppy adult food before 6 months of age. Puppies need the extra vitamins and fats in puppy food. Make sure the puppy only eats the amount recommended. Do not feed dogs people food! 7. Spay/neuter their dog when their vet recommends. Breeding dogs should be left to licensed breeders, and fixing your pup means they will live longer and be less aggressive. A happy dog is hard work but well worth it!
