Quite a beautiful little kitten there!
Holly loves her new house. We put it in quiet corner and I think it gives her a place to relax in peace. She is old and has some heart issues so a place to chill out is important (especially with my 6 year old running about).Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's great, thanks @Anesthetist feels like you're doing your best for Holly as she gets older, think all pets/people need a retreat at times [emoji4]

Very envious! What breed? Look like Vizlas to me but all puppies look the same when they are that age!
Really miss having a dog. Cant wait till we no longer live in a flat so that I can get one!!!

Ha, apologies, didnt see it! Beautiful dogs and a great choice! My mum and dad still have one. Would love to see some progress as to how he or she develops. They can be quite a handful as pups due to the mouthing, but are great fun and a beautifully breed.
Here's a pic of Ruby, who is scared to go on the kitchen floor the daft bugger….

Nice pup den1mhead. My mate has just got a vizzler puppy. Great fun, bloody bouncy though. Like a kangaroo

pits are really good dogs when they have clear direction. it's a shame they get such a bad rap because of bad owners/people/pack leaders
what up @DougNg

@madmonday Same ole over here. Living the dream.
We have a dog fighting problem here in Maryland, there are tons of pits with ripped up faces that need new homes when the dog fighting rings get broken up. My wife and I try to get involved, but it's like trying to plug a leaking dam with spackle.

I swear it's a cultural thing, kind of like cock fighting in some circles (PAUSE, hahahahahaha) be well all you animal people

@TrickHell:
The same qualities that make for a good ("game") fighting dog also make for a good family pet, strangely enough. A good fighting dog is a dog that fights other dogs when you tell it to, not a dog that attacks everything in sight.
That's why police generally use German Shepherds or Belgian Malinois: strong/fast and HIGHLY trainable. Any dog that can't turn it off on command doesn't have the temperment for that type of work.
I feel that these days people are generally scared of anything that could potentially cause harm, regardless of intention,mindset, or even factual statistics.
I read somewhere that chihuahuas and dachshunds have the highest incidence of unprovoked attacks, but nobody talks about it. It's the one big dog that rips off someone's face that causes a negative stereotype.
My rotties are as gentle as can be, they even walk next to the baby so she can use them for balance now that she's learning to walk. It's pretty shitty that people are scared of them.

My ferocious (sarcastic) pit mix Daphne:
And my highly trainable (even more sarcastic) Shepherd mix Buddy:
Both both dogs were abandoned - luckily Daphne was fostered by one of or friend until we could buy our first house a few years ago, but buddy found us in a rainstorm.
Here is what he looked like the day he stopped me on my front porch. Still breaks my heart that anyone could just leave an animal to fend for themselves.
Poor guy dosnt have any bottom teeth. The vet says he was probably chewing on rocks since he was out alone for so long. Heartworm positive, flea positive - everything was against him. Luckily, almost two years later, he is still with us causing havoc haha
