Evolution of the bully breed

Pitbull blue nose has become one of the most popular coat and nose color variation of the breed. As dog breeders become smarter and skillful in marketing their dogs, they are realizing that they can easily increase their bottom line by marketing their dogs on the platform of certain “noble physical traits or attributes” and portraying these traits as unique, rare or outstanding.

In 1835 the blood sport was banned in England due to public outrage and bull dog owners and breeders moved into a new sport called “ratting” where they continued with their betting habit which involves putting a number of rats in a pit and bets were made on how many rats the bull dog could kill within a specified time frame.

In order to increase the number of rats that a bull dog could kill within the shortest time frame, the bull dog breeders sought to increase the bull dog’s prey drive, quickness and agility by crossing the breed with the terrier (these agile and energetic breeds were specifically bred to hunt rats, rabbits, foxes and even badgers and will even burrow into the earth in search of these prey). The crossing of the bull baiting bull dog breed with the terrier was the birth of the now famous (or infamous) modern day pitbull terrier.

After ratting came dog fighting and pitbull, the ultimate canine gladiator, was the breed of choice that was used for this new blood sport. At this point the pitbull breeders continued their selective breeding which they began with the bull dog and bred the pitbull into the ultimate game dog (a breed that will fight to the last drop of its blood). Dog fighting involves two dogs (usually pit bulls) fighting in front of spectators with bets placed on them.

The pit bull come in different coat colors such as blue, red, black, chocolate, brown and moo moo. The personality and/or behavior of the pitbull is not influenced by the coat color. It does not matter if it is blue nose pitbull, red nosed or chocolate it has no bearing on the dog’s personality and/or behavior. A pitbull is a pitbull regardless of the coat color.
