Appearance of the Bullypit
|
| The Bullypit has a short, smooth, glossy coat that can come in almost any color, including white, brown, black and chocolate. They have a large head, short muzzle, big mouth, deep chest and strong, firm back. Their tails are long and tapered, and their legs are short, stocky and well-defined. They have large feet in proportion to their legs. Bullypits generally stand around 63.5 centimeters tall and weigh between 22.5 and 45 kilos, depending on the size of their parent breeds. Their big mouths can sometimes give them the impression of smiling at you, and they sometimes have a comical expression. |
Temperament of the Bullypit
|
| Although the Bullypit can appear fierce and can certainly be a scary watchdog, this breed is very gentle and cuddly with its family. If you socialize them when they're young, you should have no problem getting your Bullypit to get along with any animal in your home, although they can chase squirrels and rabbits outside just like any other dog. You need to make sure your Bullypit knows that you're the leader of the pack in your home so he knows he can't have his way. Bullypits are easy to train as long as they know who's boss, and you need to remain consistent and not use aggressive punishment at all times. This can make your dog aggressive in return. |
Needs and activities of the Bullypit
|
| Your Bullypit likes to stay active and needs at least one hour to 90 minutes of moderate exercise a day. Without proper exercise, your Bullypit is likely to get bored and immerse himself in things he's not supposed to do, like chewing furniture or anything else he can find. Taking your dog for a walk around the neighborhood or a trip to the dog park are both excellent choices. In addition, most dogs of this breed enjoy playing fetch or chase with other pets. The Bullypit is also good at agility training, and they are excellent in competitions of all kinds. |
Maintenance of the Bullypit
|
| You don't need to brush your Bullypit very often because of its short hair. A quick brushing with a soft bristle brush once or twice a week should be enough to minimize shedding. There's no need to shampoo your dog unless necessary, as bathing too often can lead to dry skin. Once a week, while cleaning your dog's ears, you should check for redness, wax build-up and mites. Be sure to brush your dog's teeth at least once or twice a week with a toothpaste specially designed for dogs, and trim his nails if necessary. |
