Raider is a Pit Bull!
The Pit Bull's love of a good game is exceeded only by its' need for human companionship! They are usually very good with children and, in England, are known as "Nanny Dogs" for their willingness to assume the job of nursemaid!
Pit Bull's are very athletic and need a lot of exercise! They are very poor swimmers and have a low tolerance for cold weather. !
The Staffordshire Terrier is sometimes known as the "Pit Bull" because of its history of being used for bull baiting and dog fighting. Because it was important that the dogs be docile and easily handled - even during a fight, most of these animals have a sweet, trustworthy disposition around their owners!
This strong, agile dog is intelligent and "creative", often stubborn, and may be defensive around other dogs. They need daily mental and physical exercise to prevent them from thinking of mischief! !
Despite the short, easily maintained coat, this dog should be considered a housedog because of its low tolerance to weather extremes and its high need for human companionship.
We are pleased to welcome Raider to our practice!
