Is The APBT Your Breed Of Choice?

Lar-San Kennel Breeder and Owner and Exhibitor

  • Many people are interested in owning a APBT as a pet, there are a few things you should know and while it may not always be the case, you have to remember it is possible!

  • These dogs were originally bred and used for fighting. Even in animals that are not bred of fighting lines, the desire to rumble can arise at anytime. We cannot blame the dogs for their instincts.


  • You can have all the experience in the world but if you don't understand the background of these dogs and recognize it as something real....you are more likely at risk for accidents.

  • Knowing how to prevent an accident or break one is is all part of responsible ownership.

  • Own and learn how to use a breaking stick

  • Please becareful a fight can strike suddenly, for no apparent reason....
    ..Oh how many times have I heard "My dogs have always been friends, they sleep and eat together"
    ..but one day something triggers one off and you have a problem.

  • You need to understand and know how to handle this situation if it should ever happen!

  • With that said some APBT's do live in a multi-dog and have no problem but we can't assume this is a all the time occurence.

  • APBT's have many great qualities.
    ..They are wonderful companions and are loyal like no other breed.
    ..They take great to training and I recommend all to have basic Obedience training
    ..They are extremely friendly with people and will be your lifelong companion..
    ..They love to sleep in the bed, have their bellies rubbed and think they are of the size to sit in your lap.

  • Finally, if you want a 'guard" dog choose a different Breed!
    ..APBT's are not the best guard dog.
    ..They are naturally alert and will let you know if a problem might exist but they are too people friendly to be
    ..good protection dogs..............
