Are pitbull illegal in belguim?
France has the best law about pitbulls. As long as you have papers that state it is a pure breed pitbull, the dog is allowed. Any other dog that resembles a mix with a pitbull and other dog, is to be destroyed.
You can obtain a dual registration from CKC for your AKC registered Dog. AKC does not recognize CKC (Continental Kennel Club). Therefore your litter would need to be CKC registered. You can print out your applications at www.ckcusa.com

Would a razor edge pitbull be a good hunting dog?
short muscular mixed breed, selectively breed for personality traits such as loyalty, loving and calm temperament and physical traits of large muscular pitbull dogs.
Razors Edge is a blood line started by Dave Wilson in Virginia in the 1980's. The dogs "pitbulls" were selectively breed to be more of a bully companion dog rather than an athletic and agile pitbull. These dogs are very social for the most part and lack the more desirable conformation qualities that the true American Pitbull Terrier has. *For example; they do not conform to UKC show standards as they are short and compact with oversized heads. They lack the drive of a normal APBT as well. They may make an excellent pets, but care should be taken to select an ethical and quality breeder.
It should be noted that any dog classified as a "Pit Bull" may be illegal to have in many counties around the country. You should speak to your local animal control and make sure it is legal to own such a type of dog.
It should also be noted that many greedy breeders mix breeds for the physical traits only so they are not APBTs at all, and do not have the temperament of Wilson's dogs. Dave Wilson swears that the dogs are pure APBT and he selectively bred the traits (strong, short and muscular, with gentle, loyal temperament) with other's of the same build and temperament.
But many question the breed as pure APBT and believe the breed is mixed with English Bull Terries and/or other stocky build bullies. That is the reason they are not recognized as pure APBT by the top kennel clubs.
Though, Dave Wilson's breeds are very good quality, and he takes great pride in them, for the love of them, not for the money. But, many irresponsible breeders looking to fool people into believing they are getting a true Razor Edge, do mix them with other bully breeds, but neglect the temperament and this is why and how they can be dangerous to people, and cruel for the dogs/ These bad breeders are in it for the money, and charge large sums for them, over $2,000-$4000!! If they are more then 2g then you are being taken advantage of and they most likely are not true Razor Edge Bullies.

A red nose pit is just that, a pitbull with a red nose. The nose of any normal dog will most of the time, be black. A red nose pit, however, will have a "red" nose.

Can you get a copy of the papers for your pitbull?
If you bought your dog from a reputable breeder who had papers on the bitch and sire, they should have given you papers stating the dog's parents' names which you would send to the United Kennel Club or/and the American Dog Breeders' Association with a fee in order to register your puppy with whatever name you choose. If your dog's parents aren't both registered, he cannot be either. In short, the answer to the question is - contact the person/organization you got your animal from and speak with them about registration papers.
Actually, the AKC does not recognize the "American Pitbull" as a specific breed. It does recognize the Staffordshire Bull Terrier--but that is a distinct breed. There are several "bully breeds" in the AKC, however this concept we have now of the "pitbull" is largely a name created by the public (and the press) which combines any and all dogs with the bull terrier characteristics. Well bred (by a responsible breeder) and well trained and socialized, these dogs make wonderful companions, but are not recommended for the first time dog owner as they require experience and sound leadership--but not brutality. They are among the most intelligent, sensitive and loyal of companions, but because they are such a powerful group of dogs, the owners are obligated to acquire, socialize and train them responsibly.
Are pitbulls the strongest dog?
No. Jaw strength (the leading mark of strength in a dog) varies from individual to individual, but Rottweilers have been found to have one of the strongest bites. There are other breeds that rank in the same area, but it is obvious that "pit bulls" do not always have the best bite.
Does pitbull have a wife and kids?
If they have their junk still, yes. Where do you think baby pitbulls come from?
Why are pit bulls the most misunderstood breed of dog?
The simplest answer to this is ignorance. People see the muscular, athletic and relatively large Pit Bull as a dog to be feared. This can be put down to the media giving a false or exaggerated image of the breed as a snarling, uncontrollable beast that will kill anything. Of course anyone who has ever owned a Pit Bull will know that this is far from true. The Pit Bull can do serious damage, but raised correctly they can (like any other breed) make a wonderful and loving pet. Proof that the media have an enormous impact on stereotyping is the fact that the highest number of dog bites in the UK alone come from Golden Retrievers, yet barely any news is ever reported of this breed attacking. Instead, breeds that look 'aggressive' such as the Pit Bull, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Rottweiler, German Shepherd etc. are blamed. Blame the deed, not the Breed!
