Shell love that when it starts wanting to kill every other dog she meets when out for a walk.Also be great when she has it taken from her and put down.And where does your average person whose not in the know buy a pitbull from? 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tyla 3,179 Posted February 6, 2019 Report Share Posted February 6, 2019 Take her to the shelter and let her choose, there's enough of the poor fuckers in there through no fault of their own. It's not like she wants anything in particular so why not give one a chance rather than buying and over priced cross bred pup? 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lurcherman 887 12,679 Posted February 6, 2019 Report Share Posted February 6, 2019 Just get her a chihuahua lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Born Hunter 17,638 Posted February 6, 2019 Report Share Posted February 6, 2019 Get something you don't want. If you get something vaguely workable, you'll probably end up working it, it'll bond with you more than her and you'll be back to square one with a dog you only half wanted. lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jonjon79 13,340 Posted February 6, 2019 Report Share Posted February 6, 2019 Get her some sort of little mongrel ......... We've got a Chihuahua x JRT. Cute as f**k as a puppy. She's about 5yrs old and 4.5kg now and, only ever been to the vets for her yearly checkup. Doesn't do any damage to the house or garden. She's great at letting you know if anyone's coming. She'll happily just chill out for the day or, she'll take off at 100mph when you play or take her out. Intelligent and well behaved - responds to commands well. We leave her a bowl of dried food and a bowl of water down, she'll happily please herself. Has to sniff anyone new in the house, then she's not bothered. Her shits are tiny so, not a bother to pick up. I think I paid about £400. I grew up with Labs and bigger mongrels but, I'd recommend one of these 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
forest of dean redneck 11,190 Posted February 6, 2019 Report Share Posted February 6, 2019 My ex missus has got a jr x chi and a supposedly pure longhaired T cup one which turned out taller than the cross ,it also make a retching/gagging noise occasionally ? The cross is the better dog out the pair tbh 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 25,258 Posted February 6, 2019 Report Share Posted February 6, 2019 Loads of advice, but the point everyone is missing is he,s buying it for a woman, so not matter what you get her it will be wrong and every element it has throughout its life will be your fault for buying it, so you may as well just by what you want and take the shit early 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
downsouth 6,836 Posted February 6, 2019 Report Share Posted February 6, 2019 Why dont you just let her have what she wants rather than what people on here think you should have. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
