lol too funny Andy! You right I should be thinking about my heart. So... are you gona breed? We need an answer! We need Drive Satisfaction!

Andy,
I thought that they maybe going to the GAME SPORTS. :rolleyes:
I'm not suggesting that you would do this, but who knows where the litter could have ended up.
You have answered that.

As for using them as guard dogs, that may not be a bad idea. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> What do guard?

How is your Rott coming along on training??

It's my signature isn't it? I've had a couple of people send me hate mail over it lately. I'll have to change it....

My dear Crabtree. I am from Old Blighty. We British would not stoop to such dastardly behaviour old boy. I'm far too busy playing cricket and having afternoon tea to even consider such a thing! I ain't no Redneck...boy!

My Rot STILL won't bark on command. However, I won't give up and I'll let 'ya'll' know what happens.

I have seen pit/rott crosses, looked similar to a rott, not so big as a rott and the coulor have been rust-red in all rott/pit crosses I´ve seen. This is a cross I wouldn´t recommend to anyone, and this is for two reasons. If you want to cross two different breeds they should be similar in both size/structure and character. If you cross two breeds which differs a lot in these areas, the risk with lack of balance in both character and structure are significant. The result of such a cross are impossible to predict. The rottie and pitbull have two different charcters, the pit are very peoplefriendly and want to please it´s owner, but it has intense lust for combat with other dogs, and will not stop fighting if it get seiously hurt or the other dog surrender, like most other breeds will do.
The rottie is often a dominant breed, which are more sharp against humans. A cross between these two breeds could result in a dog which have the intensive lust for fighting, like the pit has, but now also with an aggressive nature to humans because of the rott. In other words, this could be a very dangerous combination, especially for unexperienced owners. It´s often crosses like this that causes problems, and then the pitbull gets all the negative publicity because people call these crosses for pitbulls. A pit crossed with a rottie are no more a pitbull, just like a GSD crossed with a golden retriver ain´t a GSD. All rott/pit crosses I`ve seen have also been owned or breed by bad owners who only are intressted in having the "baddest dog" in the area <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

Sounds perfect for active service in one of the most dangerous places on earth if you ask me (which you didn't)

Crabtree - Am I gonna breed? Let's wait until all the votes are in and then I'll make my decision. Bear in mind folks that these dogs are not intended to be pets. They're supposed to be MEAN!

(Thump! Thump! Thump!) That's me kicking myself in the you know where. Andy I forgot where you live. I suppose it would make sense then, but I personally still wouldn't do it.

However, to coin a phrase from my father (from whom I have learned all good things....when I chose to listen!)

"DO WHAT YOU WANT."

Andy,
Didn't have to ask how dangerous your local is, been there done that.
Oh! Yes,I've eaten DOG but prefer CAT or MONKEY.

Change back to your old signature! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Good luck in what ever you decide,

Yeah change it back! F&^%$ the system! Be a rebel! Put down that Tea and fight for your rights of free expression!
