Giving him formula right now then and probably about to start him on solid food in the next few days. Go ahead and judge me for that too.

No one is judging you. And if your pup is 6 weeks he's more than ready for solid food. Typically weaning begins around 3-4 weeks of age. I'd ditch the formula and move to solid food asap!

get meds in the pup, get some raw goat milk if you can find it and feed that as well, start with ground burger meat and milk or a soft puppy food soaked in water or goat milk (don't use cow milk as the fat molecules are much larger)
If you need any other help, other than what the vet offers (please go to a vet) don't hesitate to ask..

2nd this!!

I'm actually in school to be a vet tech so I've had experience with puppies. And I've tried solid food once and he wanted nothing to do with it, I'll try again tonight. My main concern was the bumps on his head but I'm just assuming that's dry skin because it just looks like dandruff right now.

wet the food down, he'll start "drinking" and then eating,, if you use goat milk instead of water he will really like it

The bumps are normal FYI.... don't worry, he will grow up beautiful if you care for him

So I'm not gonna go out of the way to call him a gotti bully so then I'll have to explain myself even farther when I could just call him a pit bull, because that's what I've grown up around and that's what everyone around me knows them as.

Forgive me if I come across crude, but I do need to let you know that terms like red nosed pit bull, Razors Edge and Gotti are not necessarily reference to a particular breed. Let me explain, because in one way those terms do refer to breed, but it is all in how they're used. Gotti and Razors Edge refer to specific bloodlines, which at one time were APBT but have since been used exclusively in the breeding and creation of the American Bully. Red nosed pit bull is not a breed in the respect that red nosed means just that, the dog has a red nose. Red noses are primarily found in the APBT and no other "bully breed" that I'm aware of, unless they're a dual registered dog, meaning they are registered with two different registries as both an APBT and usually an AST(American Staffordshire Terrier).

The media is guilty of lumping many breeds into one single classification, pit bull, and this can be very misleading in many aspects, including the average person with little to no experience with these dogs. Please do not discredit or mislabel your dog by calling it just a pit bull. Its not such a bad thing to say you have a bully breed, or pit bull type dog, especially if you do not have in your possession registration and pedigree to show your dog's family history and lineage. We are only trying to correct the misinformation you've already encountered, although we all have different delivery methods.

Yes, this is where I think the issue is. Most dogs are registered APBT as they just accepted the AM Bully in 2013. I think there have always been lighter boned and heavier boned APBT out there , so I am not sure that we can really make a choice on what someone wants to call their dog. Further if you pull up pedigrees on these dogs that everyone believes has to be AM bully , you will see most of the pedigree is APBT. Also Gotti has always produced APBT, some breeders in the last 10 years may haave taken the blood and started producing different types of dogs but not all , there are many many breeders that use gotti blood to produce APBT dogs. Just my opinion based on what I know and have researched over the years.

From my experience most Gottyline dogs are more structurally unsound than your Edge dogs and it is very evident that American Bulldog was mixed in by some breeders and are often termed Gottyline Freaks. Note I say most, not all.

For every structurally unsound Gottiline dog i see an unsound RE dog. Id rather not generalize Gottiline dogs anymore. It goes to dumbasses with no breeding ethics breeding garbage to garbage.

Then the freaking pit bull nazi over here saying my dog is a wanna be pit bull. My dog could be the biggest mutt in the world and I'd still love and care for him the same. Didn't know it was a crime to call a gotti bully a pit bull. MY BAD! And I also don't like how you say mainly "thugs" breed them. They are beautiful animals and I love them So I guess my 20 year old white self is a thug, country accent and all.

Yes I have felt the same way and I have already put them in a blocked list those people are just mentally challenge and don't know how to deal with the situation is like if your dog is a mutt they treat you like trash not everyone but a few pop wipes here do. So do yourself a favor and blocked them like I did.
