you dont need to miss meals to be conditioned. (dont give people the wrong idea)

[Miss Conduct]

And Big Papa, he does look healthy, and way better than alot of other peoples bigger dogs (they keep them fat to look bigger). I have a friend that does that. :(

point taken......
Im sure B was just kindin' though- ;)

[houstonapbt]

Yeah, fat and healthy but not conditioned...




PS - Is he a bandogge? Nice lookin dog, looks like a Neo X Pit.

[B]

Er... I was joking. Obviously conditioning your dog doesn't have anything to do with missing a meal. I was politely saying he looks overweight. Unless he's just a pup he should have his food intake cut a bit. His stomach doesn't tuck at all.

Over all, he is a beautiful healthy dog! Not in bad shape, but not conditioned. Here's what a conditioned APBT looks like...but looks don't make a dog....

thats a good lookin dog

[The Watcher]

thats a good lookin dog """"looking""""

[KnottyBoyNC]

lol, yea he LOOKS but i dont know anything about him/her..........

[king dobe]

that dog look fine to me, but hasnt got great muscle definition, not to take anything away from him, its a good lookin dog

[JohnsonKennels]

IMO more walking or better yet if he can fetch to have him doing sprints back and forth will realy help with more muscle deff. his neck needs to tighten up a bit also, try tug-a-war.
all in all nice dog!!

[Big Papa]

isn't that too skinny seeing his rib bones or is that actually good.

[Big Papa]

don't know why but my dog is a lazy butt.........he wont bite on anything........or do anything.........people say he's a laid........but i've been trying to work him out lately still he acts the same

[devinben3]

isn't that too skinny seeing his rib bones or is that actually good.For a apbt to be true to it's standard..you should be able to slightly see the ribs when they stand still, and a tad more when they walk or streth out. But you should not be able to see the hip bones sticking out. also, standard wants to slightly see the ribs on the topline(notice the ridges on chinamans topline), but just barely. Check out chinaman, the perfect example of the conditioned apbt, and he's proven himself worthy!

[devinben3]

Have you tried a "hide" attached to a flirt pole? a real hide might get him in the mood...otherwise does he like to swim? what does he like to do besides lay around? i would do roadwork w/him..start slow and feed high quality dog food, but cut your food back a tad bit, but not too much since you'll be working him more...

[GaDog]

Looks like he has spent a few to many nights on the sofa, after a fat meal. Still pretty dog

[Marty]

Damn near perfect confirmation :)

[Big Papa]

nope he doesn't like to do anything and when i take him walking he'll walk for like 5 min then lay down and rest........swimming he hates it........all he wants to do is play fight

[El Mexicano]

sounds to me that he aint game

[rockysteel]

Looks like a young dog a little over weight, no muscle defination but he looks healthy.

[powder925]

maybe its just the pic,but does he have alot of loose skin around the neck? is he a pure pit or a mix?

[misterdogman]

sounds to me that he aint gameHow would you know that from a picture or a simple opinion?

[PorsA]

I have a lazy dag also, but I cut his feed and he is now a bit more active. His favorite training is lay down and stay (And he can do that for hours!). When I train him with a other dog in front of him he will workout fine, but when alone he is very lazy. But he can walk for 2,5 hours, so he ain't that lazy. He don't play fetch more than 3 times and after that he eats the ball.

[MR PITS]

Looks healthy, but not conditioned

[miakoda]

sounds to me that he aint game
HUH? :confused: Just because a dog doesn't want to swim or play with a flirt pole doesn't mean he isn't game, it just means he doesn't want to do these things. There is only 1 way to know if a dog is game, & swimming isn't it. ;) (this term is thrown around so much that it's beginning to drive me insane!!:eek: Don't degrade the true game dogs because you say your dog is game because he really loves to chase the tennis ball!)

[Big Papa]

yeah he has a dewlap and he is still a pup he has loose skin all over meaning i guess he'll grow even bigger........but what i do is i mostly walk him.

[robert]

If he is still vry young, I suggest you just hand walk him. Try giving him less food (just a bit). You will see him change slowly but surely as he gets adult. Have him play with females. As he grows older you could start running him. The secret, if I can allow myself to say this, is just to be patient, imaginative, tolerant and tenacious.

[Big Papa]

hah he is 1.5 yrs now and from that picture lets just add some muscle and you'll see what i have done with him

[caleb]

point taken......
Im sure B was just kindin' though- ;)
people must'nt confuse thin with conditioned

[Big Papa]

haha thats true.....he lost 10lbs and went to 80 but now hes back up to 90+ just for the winter tho

[FelonyForever]

he's a beautiful dog.

[Big Papa]

why thank you felonyforever
