A Half Century with the American Pit Bull Terrier
I am very proud of the book and feel it will be an interesting read to all those fanciers, from one who is mildly interested in the breed to the sure enough fanatics. My intent was not only to share a bit of the breed's history and evolution from my experience in the early years, but to put a new spin on the breed and the people who own them.
It covers an in depth view of those dogs I started with from the Bruno-Heinzl dogs to the Alligator family, which through the world famous Rufus dog, became the foundation to the breeding program that I still use today. Mention of many of those famous dogs of that era lends itself to be an educational essay of sorts for many who weren’t even born then, but have interest in the dogs that have impacted our breed today.
Perusal of this book should give everyone who owns the American Pit Bull Terrier a new appreciation for the breed.
The cost of the book is $50.00 which includes shipping and handling in the continental United States. To all other destinations the book is $60.00 which includes shipping and handling.

We have a current kennel walk on DVD for those
wanting to see exactly what’s cooking here at the Catch Dog place. It is the next best thing to coming here in
person. I can also make up kennel walks
from the archives. They go back to the
80’s which show ancient history like Vito, Kilroy, Snort, and others that I
will never forget about. These will take
a few days to complete as I have to piece them together from old VHS tapes and
it can become very time consuming. Feel
free to ask any questions about these as I am always glad to help in any way
that I can.
