pitbull is not a breed of Dog at all rather it is a type of Dog reffering to a group of dogs with similar orgins like spaniels or shepperds and remeber ALL dogs are mixed except for the wolf i myself have akc ,ukc and adba registered pit dogs and i can say they are the same dogs but there are different types |

Check out the Dog BiBle by Kristin Mehus-Roe, It has 250 breed many that the AKC dosent recognize,(many many great breeds) The Akc only recognizes the American Stafford terrier which is a medium sized dog, the proper name for a pitt-bull is American Pitt-Bull terrier (APBT) which can be larger and they are recongizned as a breed just not by the AKC, They can be shown in competitions under the open or all breeds (my friend shows hers in competive obedience) There is Many many myths about American pitt-bull terriers such as their jaws lock, which there is no truth to this, just because the AKC dose not recognize it dose not mean they aren't a bred |

unfortunately, its an old fashion book the website thats on the book is xxxxxxxxxxx it just tells what the book is about, i bought mine at amazon, new at a lower price theres always a lower price online for books, but i recommend it because it has so much useful information about ALL dogs everything about them Im sure there is some great books on the APBT as well out there ALOT of myths about the breed and another great read about Dog behavior is "The other end of the leash" by Patric Mcconnell I couldn't put that book down it was so informative yet entertaining at the same time
