Raw Diet

Diet for dogs.

What type of food do you feed your dog?  Is it a vet. approved special dog food or your regular old Kibble and Bits? I have seen a lot of dog owners doing the raw diet deal for their dogs, Is it safe?

The raw diet is exactly like it sounds RAW.  Some good old ribs, raw with bone to chew on.    
I recently gave BUddha a rib and he didn't know what to do with it but eventually his animal instincts kicked in and he slowly chewed it breaking down the bone and all.  He seems to be just fine and I am slowly going to get more raw foods into the mix. I guess its as good as it gets in the wild.  They would be hunting and scavenging for food. Making the kill and eating it raw. I don't know any dogs that know how to cook so. Well hopefully he doesn't throw up and takes to his new diet well. StayHI 

APBT Is a Pittbull a real breed?

APBT or PittBull?

From my experience with different breeds of this variation of american pitt bull terrier an APBT is a pittbull and vice versa.  Its the same breed and was given the name for being a catch dog and catching rats in a pit and for fighting in a pitt. I am against dog fighting but it is nice to share history as what's done is done. As cruel as it may be you gotta give props to the old timers that put in work so that our dogs are what they are today. If not for the work of the old timers who knows how the breed would have ended up.  Give props to the dogs champs like Plumbers CH Alligator and some of the other game dogs during that generation.  Even though i like many others are against fighting it intrigues us enough to learn about it.  It is a great history of a true mans dog. He will give his life for you and do whatever it may take to make sure you are protected. They will love you till u die and thats why we must support the breed.  They went from catch dogs and fighters to show dogs support the movement keep the bloodline strong.

Bite Me

Flowerhorn Agression

Flowerhorns are known for their territorial behavior and shear aggression. I own a ZZ Red Dragon which to me seems like one of the more aggressive of the breed.  He is straight beast.  I watch youtube and see people petting their flowerhorns and holding them like a tamed fish figured I'd give it a try....big mistake.  Maybe you have to start at a early age because my flowerhorn bites and he bites hard.

I have been rescaping my tank so I figured I would give it a go.  So instead of pulling my hand out violently getting water everywhere I let him bite me. took one for the team I let him bite me thinking how bad can it be? Well the first twenty were not that bad I was like a champ.Yes I said twenty and like a dummy I just kept on letting him.  Then he started hitting the same spots over and over.  He sinks his teeth in and shakes trying to pull my skin off.  He is straight best.  I had to learn to defend myself from the attacking dragon. Fish boxing lol.

 I started bumping his head against his bite so he couldn't time the bite. When he did time his bite he made sure it counted. I literally had my finger in his mouth up to my knuckle and not by choice. They do have teeth and they will use them. he actually drew blood and the outside of my right hand looks pretty messed up. I take this as a challenge and now i spar with him. Stick and move and be first. I posted a vid of my arm being sacrificed for youtube.  Check it out I just started so it will get better I promise.  

My ZZ SUPER DRAGON

He still my boy! Check u out on the FlipSide!i

Flowerhorn bites...

Budddha and Jaws

Well Buddha seems to be just fine and I am glad that is over with.  Wish I could have breed him at least once. He is so special I know his pups would have been beautiful.  In his litter there was one that came out all blue.  The way that genes skip and depending on the mother could have had some nice bluenoses running around.  Thats ok one day when the time is right I will get my kennel and fish room. Breed superdogs and animal flowerhorns.  A.P.B.T and the bulldog of the water,  my two favorites in case you haven't noticed.  Cleaned my tank and rearranged the whole thing.  I added some wood pieces and lighting.  New power head set up tomorrow.  While rearranging my tank my SRD wanted to show me how hard he can bite now that he has gotten bigger. Soooo I suffered over 75 Flowerhorn SRD bites to my right arm which did draw blood. Not only does he bite but he holds on and shakes trying to rip your skin off.  After about twenty I just got use to it.  Reminded me of blasting a tattoo. Here is a picture of day one......I endured two days of this that punk.  

I got pounded Straight Bangah.

I found that he likes to be held from underneath it seems to have a calming effect on him. Had him half out the tank but then i let go, he did a 360 on me and tagged me a good one. Friggin punk. Gotta love it really makes me wanna blast another tatt. Might have to run a Tattoo fundraiser..lol

Mission Ball Removal a Success

Buddha had his testicals removed last week and recovery went great.  They sent him home with one of those big ass plastic cones for his head poor guy was bumping into everything.  I felt bad so the cone only lasted two days.  He really wasn't trying to get at his surgical area so I figured he didn't need it.

He was such a good boy never licked that area once, it was like it never happened.  Kudos to the Vet for doing such a fantastic job and thank the lord for making it a successful surgery.  I will post their name when I edit this blog.

 I myself wanted to let him put out a litter first but everyone is like oh it will calm him down and that's why he is so hyper.  Well they were all wrong because he is still hyper and still is the same dog he was just now no balls. I would have like to see him father a litter but oh well.  It would have been nice to see him breed with a shorty.....I think the line would of been tight. Oh well buddy no pups for you. DTKennels some day. I advise that people have a good reason to get their dog cut don't do it just because......I say God gave him balls who are we to take them away.
