I have a one year old Pit bull/American Bulldog mix. She is great with our family, extremely loyal and playful. She was well socialized with people as we have a family of 6 and people are always coming and going. Only recently she has become aggressive/protective, particularly towards men. I'm not sure why this occurred all of a sudden? Any feedback and way to combat this problem would be terrific.
We have a 5mos old female APBT. I understand her teething and wanting to chew on something-but how do we get her to only chew on her toys and not EVERYTHING else? She will chew and tear up anything-doesn't matter what it is. Any help would be great!
when she starts chewing on anything other on her toy tell her no! and give her the chew toy instead this should be repeated everytime she tries to chew something shes not suppose to
Do pit bulls have web feet?
My pit bull has web feet but he hates to swim.
Some do and some don't. Mine does have webbed feet.
No, Pit Bulls do not have webbed feet.
should i have to trim the APBT's tail or not?
No, a Pit Bull is not supposed to have their tail docked or trimed, it is supposed to be tappered.
My pit has never had a litter herself but she developes breast milk when ever shes in contact with a kitten or puppy i allowed her to nurse them. Is this ok?
Yes its okay, most female animals will produce milk when a baby animal is around. Its fine for the kitten or the puppy to drink.
when can i expect my female pit bull to go into heat? she's 6 months and she is swollen and bleeding and this happened only after she was in contact with another male dog?
A female dog is in heat as soon as they start bleeding and sometimes they don't bleed that much or you don't notice, but if she is swollen and bleeding then she is in heat, female dogs go into heat usually every 6 months, they don't need to be in contact with a male dog to be in heat. If she is in contact with an intact male, most likely they will mate and she will become pregnant.
How am I supposed to know when to or what vaccines to give my APBT, which one for monthly and which for annually? I currently give Duramune Max 5 CVK/4L once a month it's an 8 way shot.
as a responsible dog owner, you need to find a trustworthy veterinarian. take your dogs to the vet regularly and follow their advice. a good vet will know everything about all the medications your dog may need.
I have a female pit bull pup and she had a period in April, a few months ago, and hasn't had another since. Is this normal?
Yes this is completely normal. Dogs go into heat about every 6 months or so. You`ve got nothing to worry about.
