Kurzbeschreibung
Details the working skills of the American Pit, in legitimate arenas not including dog fights.
Synopsis
Overcoming the prejudice of the American Kennel Club, biased and degrading media coverage, and attacks by the US legal system, the Pit Bull still ranks among the most popular and most loved purebreds in the world. Author and Animal Control Officer Diane Jessup effortlessly proves that the Pit Bull is not purely a fighting dog but rather the most versatile, intelligent and athletic dog of all breeds. In over 300 fantastic photographs in full colour, you have evidence that the Pit Bull excels in countless arenas: obedience trials, police forces, search and rescue squads, weight pulls, therapy work, Hollywood movies, and even dog shows. Although many books have been devoted to the fighting history of the breed, "The Working Pit Bull" focuses on the entire spectrum of the breed's skills, giving this remarkable dog its due as a legitimate purebred, a goodwill embassador, and a devoted companion - a true Superdog!

Einleitungssatz
Few breeds have as long and as well-documented a working history as the breed known by his friends as the Pit Bulldog, and registered with purebred dog clubs as either the American Pit Bull Terrier (APBT) or as the American Staffordshire Terrier. Lesen Sie die erste Seite

Just to let you know, I actually wrote the Colby book with Louis Colby, so I HAVE read it. I have eight Sarona/Hemphill dogs, game-bred, and yes, they do like to scrap. However, I am able to focus and use that energy and drive in intelligent and useful ways that do not involve them harming other animals. The sad problem with our breed is that some people are unable or unwilling to help these dogs survive by doing the same.

I consider that it is one of the books but complete of pit bull that have read. the same one shows us the versatile thing that it is our dear race and all the tasks that she is able to carry out. however, I think that to achieve dogs with as much docility as those that appear in the book it is necessary to be but that love or friend a very good magician. I recommend it thoroughly and I hope they enjoy it.

As an owner of several ADBA pit bulls, I am thrilled that at last there is a book out that we can use to help fight breed specific laws in our area. Many of the other books (Like Stratton's and Carl Semencic's) are not the kind of book you would want to take to a town meeting and try and convince them that these dogs can be great pets in responsible hands. Semencic's newest book (Gladiator Dogs) features page after page of snarling, lunging pit bulls. Great! Just what we need! And more dogs on heavy chains like some kind of maniacs! Sure pit bulls must be housed and handled with a little more care around other dogs, but thank you! Diane, for a fresh, intelligent look at our dogs. I for one am donating one to my local library, and sending one to the city council.

Bought a new pup from Breeder in this book
I've owned a APBT since 1973, so I am always interested in new books. Almost all books are about fighting lines, and I know that's not all this breed is capable of. Lesen Sie weiter...
