Why do you want some hybrid over priced mutt?? Why not go for a pure and well bred Staffordshire bull terrier or American staff terrier? Better yet if you want to go smaller then how about a Boston Terrier.....

Two very different breeds. If the OP is looking for something smaller than an APBT then an Amstaff is not going to be much use to him/her.

I know they are two different breeds Aus lol! Geez, I would hope I knew that by now
but so isnt the pit bull and patterdale terrier mix that the OP is looking for. I am just saying that instead of a pitterpat why not go for a purebred dog thus being what I mentioned or even an APBT. Why a hybrid mutt? Or is this cross an acceptable working mixed breed to you? Maybe I am missing something....... I haven't read anything on here about pitterpats I figured they are catergorized as a hybrid mutt just like cockapoo's, schnoodle's, and puggles. I have seen owners post there Patterdale terriers and I think they are cool little dogs but why a pitterpat? Enlighten me

There good dogs, if you find yourself a working breeder thats worth your time usually wont be that expensive. (under $400)

Not into the pitterpats but there are some nice Jagdterriers and patterdales. Pitterpats can be just as big as a smaller APBT and if you are looking for a WP dog get an APBT, lol I am with BNB on this one

The only time i ever agree on mixing breeds is for a purpose, granted i would never look into a "pitterpat" for many reasons but they can be good working dogs if bred with that in mind.Not into the pitterpats but there are some nice Jagdterriers and patterdales.

Only reason i've gone a little "against the grain" on this one is because i've seen how these dogs can be. Personally if i wanted a small pistol i'd get a Jagd in a heart beat.
pitterpats are used for hunting and are a very hard working dog. no they are not breed but they are also not a mutt. a mutt is a dog in my opinion that was bred on accident. and please to not think of them as a fad dog cause simply they are not. they were bred for wieght pullings low class and they did vry well. working dogs are bred for there ability to work and these dogs can work. conformation breed or what every shouldnt matter.

There is a member on here (sorry can't remember the name) who has patterdales and I believe hunts with them. If they see this thread, they might be able to help.
