Hey, you tell brandon "don't forget to wear his helmet!" I don't even have a blue stud, Damien is all I have here at home, and he's black and white, he'll produce blue pups cuz his mom was blue, but he'll throw black pups as well. The only person I deal with that has a blue stud is Steve at Pure Blue pits, but his stud fees are something like $1,500.00 or $2,000.00. If he'll take looks over color, Damien's stud fee currently is only $500.00 for two more females, then it goes up from there! But like you said, he's wanting blue because buyers have no idea of what quality is anymore. They think because they have a blue dog they've hit the lottery or it's a great fashion accessory! Personally I wouldn't care if the dog was neon green, if it's built good and not all sloppy i'd be happy! Where are you working at that sells kennels? I'm in desperate need of some welded wire kennels, everytime I turn around they destroy the chain link kennel and get out and tear crap up in my barn! I was going to buy the 16' x 5' horse panel from TSC, and build my own, but those are $50.00 a panel.

I work at Menards on Creasy Lane.
As for the kennels, they are the chain link kind, they're not welded.
I want to talk to you man...
Have you ever considered hosting your own Bull convention/show?
Let me know.... You know I can get a hold of all the right people to make it happen. I also have the perfect location for an indoor show, vendors, live bands and even an out door weight pull. And plenty of parking!!
Let me know!

Sorry I missed your call back, I was asleep, I gotta work tonight and tomorrow night, it was hard to turn down double time tonight and triple time tomorrow night! I did try and call again, but I got some sort of answering service, I assume it's because you were online, I will try once more on my way to work, say 9:45 or after.

Hey man...
I am usually home in the evenings, most of the time I am chating on the phone to Heather though!
I got my Gotti female back last night. I went over to the guy's house who had her and he pissed me off real fu**ing bad! He had his pup inside the house & my female out side in a make shift Gilligan's Island type kennel sleeping on a cold concrete driveway!!!
I told him upfront I didn't want her to be an outside dog unless she had a controlled environment.
So I snatched her up & brought her home!
I wanna bring her over sometime so you can see her man! What did you think about those pics of her that I sent to you?
Anyway, maybe the three of us could meet up sometime, let me know!

Dude, that sucks, gotta hate when someone mistreats your dogs when you've chosen to place them in their home. I was thinking of Co owning Jewels with someone, but I just don't trust anyone else with her. I have too much time and money wrapped up into making a name for her, and people are lining up to get pups off of her, so I can't risk something happening to her in the hands of a poor owner! Resend that email with those pics because to be honest I had your email blocked from before and forgot to unblock it since the other day.

I understand about the email thingy! It's cool! I resent the pics. Let me know if you got them. Hey give me your opinion on something else. I know a guy that wants $800.00 for a Gotti male. Here are his stats.... 100% Gottiline... kracker (21blackjack x grace) x raven(21blackjack x ghost) 17 in tall, 23 in head , 75lbs... 3 years old...breeds naturally Is that a bad deal? So what you think about a convo

Dude, NO, there's a reason why that dog is that cheap, if he was soo badd ass as the guy claims then why is he selling him? If he's soo badd you will always make room for him instead of trying to sell him. I've seen that black male you speak of and I wouldn't pay $100.00 for that dog. He's skinny, leggy, and has a long muzzle. Quality is expensive, and $800.00 for a Kracker son says something about the quality when Kracker pups are going for 3 x's that much when the pups are badd ass! I've got money says he was the last pick of his litter. I'm not trying to be disrespectful to Jean, but I'm just giving you my honest opinion on spending your money.
As far as a show goes, I'd like to do something like that, but I don't have the time or the $ to set one up. I'd be game for helping promote one and help out with stuff, but organize one myself would be out of the question.

Ok, I just reread what I just wrote and it came off kinda harsh, what you gotta ask yourself is if you went to buy a pup and pay$1,500.00 and the guy breaks out the dad and you like "what the heck is that thing," chances are you're not going to buy a pup. Just because a dog looks good on paper as far as a pedigree goes, the paper isn't going to sell the dogs alone, you gotta have desireable looks, and with bullies he's just not going to cut the mustard. He's not got the girth or anything to cut it in the bully world. Why do you think he's asking such a low price for a gottiline dog? I've seen Chico, and this dog don't hold a candle to him, I'd compare that male for sale to to your ex's tinkle machine staffie as far as looks and build!

It's all good man. You know your dogs... that's why i asked you!
if that's your opinion, then that's my opinion too.
Tinkle machine, that's some funny nuts! i can't believe you remember that!!! LMAO. that's crazy man!
As for Chico, he's not too shaby, he's a pretty good lookin dog. I don't care for his wrinkles around his muzzle, but Derringer didn't get that trait so it's all good.
That wasn't harsh at all man... You're fine.
Gotta go to wrok, talk to you tonight or in the morning.

It don't matter how much money he spends, because those guys don't know bullies from greyhounds! They don't know squat about these dogs, and you can't just buy your way into the doggy game. You gotta spend time promoting your game and produce some of the best. I'll ask steve because he won't lie to me. I'm not one bit worried, for one I'd hope that Kevin would be smart enough not to build a website for someone who's talking crap about his and everyone else's he knows dogs acting like all his stuff is better when they are just pups. He is one of those people who are trully in it because they think they can make a quick buck, and unfortunately he's talked his grandpa into buying into something that really doesn't make the money that it used to. This is a bad time to be getting into bullies, with all the bsl stuff going on, ohio is trying to pass a search and seizure law, meaning that you have 90 days to get rid of your pits or anything resembling a pit, or they can just come into your home and take it and put it down. With escalating gas prices and food and other necessities, this kid will never make it buying 10 dogs at once, i have 6 very well bred dogs and I go thru 50+ dollars of dog food a week....with 10 ur talking 100+ bucks....but I'd imagine he'll feed them Ol'Roy because he's not striking me as the brightest crayon in the happy meal!

yeah you'r right about tha happy meal thing..lol but also even if he does get a website he will be promoting steve's pits cause he didn't breed any of those dogs he bought and the fact that he got them all 4rum the same guy just proves that he don't know nuts!! I hope ole pappy dosen't spend his retirement money chasing that dude's crack dreams!!

Ok, I've talked to steve, he thinks about this guy the same way we do. He only bought one puppy from steve, and it was some crap that steve couldn't sell on the boards or anyone who knows what they are buying. As far as him getting T I's sister, i'm pretty sure that T I is almost 4 maybe......which means that basically steve gave him a female that has maybe 1 litter left, which is what he did with princess to me, no big deal, I got the hook up on a nice female and can get a couple pups off her before she's unbreedable. He's actually very smart in doing this because this means that he's not stuck with an unbreedable female.....we are, and he got 1/2 the money off their last litter, so trust me he's not making out like he claims to be, he's lying. As far as Deathrow.......deathrow is not 100% edge, maybe 50% at most, he's macho bred to a scatter bred van pelt female, he looks decent,but I've seen a few of his litters and I wouldn't buy anything off of him! Jewels is built better with heavier bone than he is! Don't sweat the petty $hit bro, pet the sweaty $hit!
