I am a proud Pitbul owner. He is an all white pitty mix, with the nose markings of a red nosed pit. His name is Wimbledon, and he is 2-3 years old. In 2011, we adopted him from his foster mom though a shelter in Philly. They had a free adoption weekend, and timing was perfect. It was the weekend before my daughters birthday, so he was her birthday present. She loved him, and she still says he was the best birthday present.
Wimbledon is not the typical pitbul. He had a horrible past. He was found tied up in a tennis court in Philly, left as a bait dog. He was found with horrible dog bites and starving. I couldn't imagine how hopeless that would be. When he was rescued he needed lots of medical attention and had a drain in his neck because infection set in.
When his foster mom posted that he was looking for his furr-ever home, I had told Kris that if no one wanted him, we could apply for him. Sadly (but fortunately) no one even was remotely interested. We went to meet him a few days later and we knew immediately...HE WAS THE ONE!
We have had him for over a year, and Kris has been wanting to get a friend for him, so we are on the search for an English Bulldog....The kind of dog Kris has wanted for as long as we've been together. He wants one with an under bite and one of those faces that are so cute it's ugly.
