Greetings from Las Vegas!! I have a year old razors edge purebred pit named Tonka. glad to be a newbie on here. had a couple questions. Are backpacks good for this breed when goin for walks? Also, what is a good brand of dry dog food?

Hi and welcome to GP, first I must say that Tonka is a good lookin guy, if he is RE and pure he is not a APBT he would be an American Bully, and yes his papers may say he is a APBT, lol. Backpacks are a great way for these dogs to utilize some of their energy when on walks, since he is a year old it wouldn't hurt to even put some weight, like water bottles or canned goods as some weight to the back pack to give an extra work out, remember a tired dog is a happy dog, lol. And I feed Diamond to my crew, i always have, I love it, i switch back and forth dependin on the season from Lamb & Rice to Maintence formula

thanks for the info!!! So he's an American Bully... I just know he's a horse, but a great dog!!! I got him 2 weeks ago and him and My 2 year old daughter are like peas in a pod..lol I got him for $400 with UKC papers. How much does the diamond dog food run? I want a 40lb bag

 

[apbtmom76]

depends on where ya go but a 40lb bag costs me roughly $30 and lasts me for 2 75lb boys about a month, lol. ooo if he is UKC and he is show worthy you should show him, UKC also has weight pull, agility, Rally-o, tons of things you culd do with him, and how awesome is it that he gets along so well with your daughter They also have juinor handler, she is a bit young but you can start her early, lol. Post up some pics, we love pics

 

[ToNkA tRuCk06]

Whats the easiest way to post pics?

 

[apbtmom76]

with photobucket, if you don't have an account you can sign up for one, it is really simple and easy, once you have you can upload pics from your phone or PC and copy and paste the IMG code when they are uploaded I just looked at your album I love the one of him in the shzdes

 

[ToNkA tRuCk06]

Dont know if this worked or not lol

 

[ToNkA tRuCk06]

Might need step by step instructions on how to paste pics on here...lol

 

[apbtmom76]

lol if you uploaded the pics to photobucket, all you have to do is hold the mouse over the pic, it will drop down like four ways to attach it, click the IMG code

come back over here and just hit paste, and then reply it should post them right up

 

[ToNkA tRuCk06]

Hopefully this will be good to go lol

 

[apbtmom76]

O M G I LOVE these pics, your daughter is way too cute for her own good, you better have shot guns ready, lol, I would LOVE her houseshoes as well, Hello Kitty is da bomb, lol

Tonka is stunning, and you did it Thanks for sharing

 

[ToNkA tRuCk06]

Thanks for helping me out!!! really appreciate it!! He weighs 77lbs. Is that about the right weight for him?

Great looking guy and an adorable little girl Welcome to GoPitbull!

 

[EckoMac]

He is one good looking boy!! Love his markings.
Welcome!!

 

[apbtmom76]

You are most welcome, glad I could be of some help, lol

If you can get a pick of him standing, like a body shot I could tell you, but he looks awesome to me, but exercise is always good, and I LOVE to see a nice lookin bully, one that is in shape and neat The back pack is a great start, lots of walking, fetch springpole/flrtpole work, as well as treadmill, he will be a beast, not that he isn't, I mean that in a good way, lol. But being pure RE, he could be very well muscled if given the proper workout I hope that makes snese, lol. We have an awesome Bully section further down on the forum, have a look around in there, ask any questions

 

[ToNkA tRuCk06]
