Look at these guys… How could they be aggressive? They are just so funny and cuddle-able. Every litter of puppies, regardless of the breed, is born with one puppy that is most dominant and one puppy that is most submissive. Under the right circumstances, either the dominant or the submissive one may become aggressive. The key is raising the puppy in an aggression free environment.

Do Blue Pits love to fight?

All animals, including humans, have a natural fight or flight reflex. PitBulls are generally confident, therefore they are less likely to run from any confrontation. The myth of them loving to fight derives from human exploitation. Most Pitbulls are forced to fight, thus enhancing their aggressive side.

Are Pitbulls good only for fighting?

No. The Blue Pitbull excels at anything that interests them. For instance, they can be excellent police dogs, thanks to their keen sense of smell and instant reactions. Or, if raised on a farm, they can actually become great herding dogs. They are very agile, quick in movement anmd many can jump 10ft or even higher. Many people might not know this, but Pitbulls have also been used as therapy and rescue dogs.

It’s a known fact that children that grow up with pets are much more friendly and communicative than those that don’t have at least a cat or a dog at home.

Dogs are man’s best friend. Regardless the breed, they are loving and caring animals. Blue pitbulls and blue nose pitbulls have become so popular recently that breeders and fanciers have coined the term blue lust to describe the public’s demand for dogs of this color. That, by itself, should give you a hint about the dynamics behind the popularity of this dog.

Source When it comes to rare dog breeds such as these, proper training is always a must. Interbreeding of pitbulls is the main reason for developing a blue nose. Determining the origins of this breed is hard, but speculations refer to the various genetic conditions. Due to this specific gene pool, the blue nose Pitbull is prone to showing behavioural concerns that may be influenced by this condition. This dog breed is innately energetic and disruptive but it doesn’t mean that they are hard to train. As with most dogs, it is important for the owners to understand that the environment is the main reason for the dog’s behaviour.

Training is highly recommended for this breed since they have the tendency to become stubborn. For instance, the dog should react to your commands even if he is in the middle of a fight with other dogs. Keep this in mind, since blue pitbulls can sometimes overpower their owners. Life experiences will shape the behaviour and the reactions of the dog to certain situations. Here are a couple of things you should know about Pitbull temperament.

1. Strong nerves. A Pitbull that shrinks when confronted with loud noises or unexpected situations is showing weak nerves. Dogs with proper temperament and training will show strong nerves in unfamiliar situations and reactions to strange sounds. While at first they are fearful, they will eventually turn to investigate the origin of the noise.

2. Friendly and outgoing. Even in the presence of strangers, a blue Pitbull must show an out-going nature and be willing to engage in fun activities. In short, they love all people. If a dog is scared of human presence, then it was clearly not raised properly or abused as a puppy.

3. Submissive, but not overly so. A blue Pitbull who was properly trained should be willing to submit to you and not be over bearing or overly shy or nervous.

4. Highly intelligent. Just like any other dog, Blue Pitbulls are very intelligent animals. Because a proper Pitbull will learn new obedience behaviours, tricks and even bad behaviours quickly without much effort.

Pitbull puppies are very adorable and lovable, and are in high demand for adoption. Blue pitbulls are best adopted in the puppy stage, so that it grows up with its owner. This only makes them more loyal and loving.

Blue pitbulls are extraordinary dogs, but are you actually ready for this breed? There are a few questions you have to answer to be sure that you will be a wonderful blue pitbull owner:

1. Does your lifestyle and time fit the blue pitbull lifestyle?

2. Are you able to train the dog? Do you have enough time for that?

Generally, there are two methods of training. One of them is by showing your blue pitbull how to lay and sit and then quitting, while the other one means life long training, beginning when you adopt the puppy and arrives at your home. This means that you have to work with your dog approximately 10-15 minutes per day, all week, everyday, all year and every year, meaning all the time, so you have to think very well before adopting a blue pitbull. Additionally, training your dog will prevent a lot of problems from happening, so it’s a big must.

3. Do you have the necessary security?

As such dogs are able to leap even tall fences very easily, dig under them or unlock gates, you have to be sure that they won’t escape. Under these circumstances, you should have privacy fence, out door housing, supervision, so you can’t leave them alone for too long because they may be stolen, may escape or may attack.

4. Can you afford such dogs?

In case you will be the owner of such a dog, you have to think very well if you have enough money for dog food, vet bills, collars, dog houses, leashes and training. If you don’t have extra money for all these, you should wait until you will afford all these things.

5. Are you ready for the scrutiny of your neighbours and friends?
Generally, blue pitbulls are perceived as being very aggressive, so people are afraid of them. This is due to the fact that people have been misinformed and because a lot of stories run, so your neighbours will dislike your choice and some of them will even try to kill your dog, while others will make a lot of comments and you may also have conflicts with your family. A great trick is to train your dog to refuse food from strangers to be sure that it won’t be killed.

6. Do you want a blue pitbull to impress your friends, family or people in general?

In case this is the reason why you want to adopt a blue pitbull, think twice as you are doing the dog a huge injustice: you will surely neglect it and in the end, you will want to get rid of it.

To conclude, you have to think very well about a lot of things before adopting a pitbull: be sure that you have extra money, time and anything else to provide care for the dog, so be responsible.

However, even in this case, the trainer is supposed to help you train the dogs easily, otherwise the dogs will believe that the trainer is actually their master. Instating the idea of property protection in dogs is not very difficult, as they already have that instinct in connection to the area that is only for them, as they seem to believe. The more difficult part here comes from the fact that the dogs must feel a sense of protection over the entire area of the house and of the yard.
