American Pitbull Terrier Mix

As your Pitbull Terrier mix gets older, you should continue to purchase a new puppy every couple of years. Buy the same breeder from whom you got the puppy. This way you can be assured that your Pitbull is going to get the proper health care he needs. You also want to make sure that you get the right things from the breeder so that they are not trying to sell you their merchandise instead of your dog. This could put your dog at risk for serious illnesses and even death. Ask the breeder if there are any shots available for your Pitbull, and if there are, ask if they will test the puppy for worms, make sure it is wormed and always make sure that the breeder you get from is a licensed breeder.

Get to know if the breeder has a pedigree and knows about good breeding practices. A well-bred Pitbull terrier mix is going to be healthy and happy. You should ask how many litters the breeder produces every year and if there are birth defects or health problems with the pups. There should be an answer to the above questions in no time at all. If the breeder does not have an answer, move on. They probably do not want to be responsible for any health problems that might arise from the Puppy they are selling.

It is important that you choose a vet that you feel comfortable with because Pitbull’s are very sensitive animals and if you trust them with your money, then you know what you are getting. Also, check to see if the breeder keeps your Pitbull at a separate place until he or she is older. Sometimes dogs do not get along at the kennel and you do not want to end up with a lost puppy. You want to make sure that you are dealing with a professional breeder.
