That is a common question, that is really so hard to answer. There are so many factors that contribute to the outcome. My pits do not go looking for trouble, however trouble seems to find them. When challenged, without hesitation, they will advance. The rotty, is pretty much the same. Now, in a fight, there is no doubt, in my mind, which will be the victor. Rotty's are tough, but, they have a deficiency, that I, as having been in a fight or two, would says gives the pit the edge. Smarts. A big part of being successful in the ring, is taking advantage of situations. A pit will exploit those with the best. Rotty's are not the smartest dogs in the world, and would not catch these advantages. A pit is much more agile, and quicker than the rotty. However, I have to warn you. Neither of these dogs should be used for fighting. It is illegal, and pathetic. These dogs should be pets, and companions. Not tools used to get out of ones responsibilities, and obligations, by making money, which is nthe only reason I know of for fighting them..........Chuck.

The same as any Pit Bull- the fact that he is the red nose variety doesn't really have anything to do with overall size. An adult male Pit Bull weighs about 40-80 pounds. They stand 18-22 inches at the shoulder.

Coy dogs can be a threat to both elderly individuals and women when they attack. It's vital to report such incidents to local animal control authorities immediately to prevent further harm.

Puppies have specific needs for frequent potty breaks, attention, exercise, and socialization which may not be met if left alone for an extended period. It's important to gradually increase their alone time and provide stimulating activities to help prevent negative behaviors.

If the dog were to attack a person, and there was evidence enough to prove negligence on the owner's part, then yes. Another animal, no. But they can and most likely will be sued for vet bills and pain and suffering. Negligence aside, why would you want to keep a dog as a pet that is that vicious?? Also, your dog could be classified as 'menacing' and will not be allowed out of your property without a muzzle on.

I didn't realize girls had penises.

Female dogs hump as an act of dominance. By humping your leg, the dog is trying to claim dominance over you. Simply shake the dog off and firmly say no, so that the behavior will stop. To stop the behavior this must be done consistently.

There are two main reasons why reason number 1 your dog needs to go poop. You see there are certain glands on a dogs butt that pop when a dog poops if they are not

poped they can get preety itchy and the dog will try and pop them.

Well. if your dog is aggressive to some dogs and not to others there are many reasons. First, the dog(s) your dog is aggressive to may be territorial aggressive, meaning that if you live near them then your neighbor's dog may think that the whole street is his territory and your dog is intruding, causing fights and barking. Also it could be something wrong with your dog. There are diseases that can make a dog too territorial aggressive and it can become a big problem. You should talk to your vet if your dog is too aggressive. And one last reason is your dog can have rabies. If your dog doesn't ahve his/her rabies shots then go to your local vet and have your dog vaccinated. I hope I helped with your problem! :D

These symptoms could potentially indicate a respiratory infection or kennel cough. It's important to take your dog to the vet for a proper diagnosis and treatment to alleviate the symptoms and prevent any potential complications.

This is a sign of dominance. Our spayed female dog humped a neutered male cat, and at first it confused me. But the humping is not any indication that the dog intends, or wants, to breed. Instead, it is one way of trying to dominate; the dog is trying to be the top dog, or boss. So you CANNOT let it happen!

wear plastic gloves while you smear Vaseline around the dogs anus. squeeze the area gently to give the dog an assist. If the dog is small enough, place it in your sink and bathe away. Good luck.

An American Bulldog is one breed in itself, thought to have been created by breeding English bulldogs and bull terriers.

The Boxer was from Germany, with records going back to the 1880s. Before that their history is more spotty.

The ancestors of Boxers were the German Bullenbeisser (a Mastiff type dog also called the Brabant Bullenbeisser), and the English Bulldog. The Brabant Bullenbeisser is accepted as the immediate ancestor of the Boxer.

The Brabanter was crossed with the English Bulldog to startthe line that would become the Boxer. In 1894, three Germans by the name of Roberth, Konig, and Hopner decided to work with the breed and enter it in a dog show. This was done in Munich in 1895, and the next year they founded the first Boxer Club.

Nearly all dogs will dig if given the opportunity, but some breeds are more prone to this behavior than others. All terriers love to dig; dogs like terriers who have been bred to "go to ground" after small prey will try to dig up any place that they believe may turn up something to chase. If you don't want a dog to dig, don't get a terrier. When dogs do dig and you want them to stop, you can put some of their fresh poop in the hole and it will at least temporarily stop the digging. You may have to keep putting in fresh poo to keep them from still wanting to dig there, but for some dogs this will help stop the habitual digging.

All dogs will be fine with a fence. in fact every dog should have a fence. weather invisible or a wooden or mesh one. not all dogs r meant to stay out side all the time and your dog may not like to.

Yes, male neutered dogs can mate with females who are in heat. No puppies will result from this mating. Female dogs who are not going to be bred should be spayed after their first heat in order to eliminate the chances of mammary cancer and pyrometria.

Dogs have natural instincts to safeguard their resources, which may lead them to move food to a different spot to feel more secure while eating. This behavior could also stem from a desire to protect their food from potential threats or to separate the food they're enjoying from the rest for later consumption. It's a common behavior that varies from dog to dog.

They can hit their head up against anything hard and sharp, or they could sprint off a cliff. However, there is no cause for a horse to actually do that intentionally, as horses cannot think as deep as us humans can about their surroundings and life.

Female pit bulls typically start their first heat or menstrual cycle between 6-12 months of age, but it can vary. It's important to monitor your dog for signs of heat such as swelling of the vulva and changes in behavior to prevent unwanted pregnancies. Regular visits to the vet can help you plan for and manage your dog's reproductive cycle.
