Hi, my name is Whitney, I have a pit bull, Rhys, who I got in February this year. He is 4 1/2 years old and a wonderful dog.
I took him in for a military family moving on-base and most US bases don't allow "dangerous breeds" such as pit bulls, rottweilers, Doberman pinschers, chows and wolf hybrids. He's been great, and we go on lots of hikes and walks and have started getting into canicross. Its been an adventure getting his allergies under control, but with some help from my new vet, we've done it with diet and an herbal supplement.
He's been great, and about a month after getting him we took a 6-week obedience class and we had a blast with that.
I don't have much in the ways of problems with him, the only things I really need to work on are him barking at people walking by the house and his leash skills when he sees other dogs and people on our walks he gets very excited and tries to go over to say "Hi!" (pulling).
Anyway, here are some photos, I know everyone always loves pictures!
