Ban Pit Bulls

I went looking for pit bulls for sale to get a little information about what specific breeders were claiming about their dogs, and couldn’t believe what huge business pit bulls are. I found some really incredible prices for pit bulls, which actually made me wonder where people would get the kind of money they are asking for a dog. I truly could not believe the first site I saw that was asking between 8 and 10 thousand for a dog. I love dogs and think that the amount of love they give to a person is priceless, but 10 grand for a dog seemed insane to me. Pit bulls are far more popular than I ever thought they were if people are willing to lay out that kind of dough for them. The dogs that were demanding the highest prices were male blue pit bulls. I guess the need for a good stud dog comes at a very high price.

It also made me realize that these dogs were not bred for fighting. Maybe their offspring will be destined for the pit but at these prices I am sure that these dogs will be well coddled and taken care of. I also realized through my search that pit bulls are advertised with a distinct type of site. These pit bull breeders are deliberately marketing these dogs as tough and with characteristics that only a person who is looking for an intimidating dog would be inspired by. The blue pit bulls that I saw for sale were all marketed as being very large and with the dimensions of their heads being very important. I guess I am not sure what that does for the pit bull except maybe it would keep the other dogs from being able to bite their giant heads off. And I have to assume that the larger the dog is the more weight it has to push a smaller dog around.

If there is any question about how pit bulls are marketed then just do a little research into pit bulls for sale and you may be just as surprised as I was to find out how valuable pits bulls really are. Trying to ban pit bulls may be an uphill battle against an industry with potentially deep pockets.
