Red Nose Pitbull Kennels

The amount of red nose pitbull breeders is unimaginable. From people breeding mutts, they claim to be quality based on the dog’s color, to the breeding of high-quality red nose pits, with generations of documented ancestry. The red nose originated from the bloodline Old family red nose coming from Scotland. The distinctive red color, lips, and nails developed from the strict inbreeding in Scotland centuries ago. The red coat color is a recessive trait that was bred into the bloodline till the point it became the dominating color in the gene pool. It has come a long way over the years with every generation of selective breeding. Resulting in bigger, faster, and more athletic pit bulls than ever before imagined. One of the prime examples of the improvements in the reds from selective breeding is FPM’S Gino.

His size, muscle composition, and temperament are well above anything seen before and this has resulted in generation after generation of selecting the best dog out of the litter. Gino is part of World Famous FPM Kennels and he is one of the main studs in their yard. Gino has the size, structure, muscle, work ethic, and a wonderful temperament to top it off. He’s one of the best red-nose studs in the world. In all honesty, he is probably the best I have seen and is a true example of what selective breeding over many generations can lead to.

 Known As The Working Breed

The Red nose is worldly known for its outstanding athletic ability and high drive to work. Many reds compete and do exceptionally well in weight-pulling competitions, and other obstacle courses. The red’s drive for work is incredible. It is also known for its capabilities of being a catch dog for hogs. I would highly recommend this breed to anyone who likes to stay active and do physical activities. This breed needs lots of playing room so they can release all of that energy they have. If you are not able to exercise the dog regularly I would say you should get a different style of dog.

How Many Red Nose Pitbull Kennels are There?

There is no way to know the exact number of red nose pitbull kennels the number is in the thousands for sure because there are new breeders every single day. There is a lot of breeding of mixed dogs (mutts) that people put high prices on because the dog throws the trademark red color in its offspring. The price you can pay for a red nose that has not been bred properly is anywhere from free to a couple of hundred dollars. 

But to get a puppy from some of the top breeders in the world your usually looking to pay $2,000 to $5,000 for one of the top bloodlines. It just depends if you want just a dog or one of the best dogs in the world. The caliber of dogs is so different in quality because someone may say they have a red nose but do they have the paperwork and pedigree to show proof of what their dog really is? 

Through lots of research and putting endless effort overall the best Kennel I could find to get a red nose from is the only BBB Accredited Pitbull Breeder in the World FPM Kennels. They offer the highest quality reds with the absolute best customer service. I have questioned them on the process of getting a puppy from them and they told me they provide a contract, and health screening of a puppy with a pedigree and bloodline no one can duplicate. I also like how they keep their dogs very exclusive and do not breed with other kennels.

But don’t believe me saying they are truly the best in the world. I would recommend to anyone looking into getting a red nose pitbull to go search for yourself for the best breeder but if you truly look around and your main concern is quality I don’t think you can go wrong with that choice.

Breed Specific Legislation on Pitbulls

Breed Specific Legislation: Why?

First off let’s explain what Breed-specific laws are, or are better known as (BSL). BSL is a regulation passed by the government against any certain domestic animal. While BSL is generally prosecuted against dog breeds. The biggest breed to be put under BSL ruling is the pitbull and bully breed type dogs. The legislation goes from completely banning the breed to only allowing certain people under certain circumstances to own the breed. However, the effectiveness and constitutional right of this disputed law are in question. A recent study found that dog biting cases greatly increased following when the laws were put in effect as an attempt to regulate the so-called “dangerous” dog breeds as pro-BSL activists would state.

Areas that have BSL laws

 There are multiple areas that have BSL laws, Included is Australia, Ecuador, Canada, Malaysia, Puerto Rico, Singapore, New Zealand, The United Kingdom, Venezuela, and twelve countries throughout Europe with a few American cities and counties that have placed different forms of BSL laws on pitbulls: including bans to restrictions of ownership. One of the most strict situations is in New South Wales in Australia where they place restrictions on the breed, making sterilization mandatory.

Why They are Banned

To simplify a bit more, we look at pitbulls as a part of a high-risk lifestyle. The type of people they attract are more likely to attract high risk individuals who are more likely to mistreat animals for neglect and abuse, while most of society views pitbulls as a damper on society. It’s not the dog itself, but the owners. A dog’s behavior is in direct correlation with the owner’s behavior and parenting methods. Society has put restrictions on this dog which has made it more desirable to the outlaws of society. I’m definitely not suggesting every pit bull owner is a criminal or a good person. Most people who own the breed are exceptional people. We as a society have judged the breed based on a small amount of pitbull owners. A small percentage gets to represent a large number of pit bulls. Personally growing up with the breed I’ve had hands on experience of the temperament and loyalty of the breed. The numbers don’t lie. The pitbull isn’t as poorly mannered as everyone thinks. It is by opinion the most loyal dog and man’s best friend.

Because of breed-specific laws and the negative publicity displayed with many types of dogs. Temperament tests are an important role for today’s dog advocates. The ATTS Temperament Test gives breeders a template for assessing temperament and gives pet owners insight into their dog’s behavior and chances of anything going wrong.. It can have an impact on breeding kennels and educating the owners about dogs’potential risk while showing the possible reward as well. Resulting in a positive influence on anti-BSL laws.

BSL Laws and why they don’t work.

The American temperament Exam ATTS was established by Alfons Ertel in 1977

First off let’s explain what Breed specific laws are, or are better known as (BSL). BSL is a regulation passed by the government against any certain domestic animal. While BSL is generally prosecuted against dog breeds. The biggest breed to be put under BSL ruling is The Pitbull and Pitbull type dogs. The legislation goes from completely banning the breed to only allowing certain people under certain circumstances to own the breed. However, the effectiveness and constitutional right of this disputed law is in question. A recent study found that dog biting cases greatly increased following when the laws were put in effect as an attempt to regulate the so called “dangerous” dog breeds as pro BSL activists would state. 

Good owners and dogs are penalized 

BSl also causes problems to the responsible pet owner whose dog is completely friendly and harmless, while still being socialized and always having proper supervision. These owners follow the laws as they are supposed to: taking this wonderful breed away from quality homes.

They actually encourage ownership by irresponsible owners

The outlaws of society are attracted to outlawed things. If you make the pitbull a banned breed. It’s going to attract the lawbreakers of society to own them. Pitbull ownership by gang members and other public enemies in the late 1980s go along with the first breed specific laws. A person who is a good owner and tends to follow laws and model good behaviors, while being a responsible pet owner is going to follow the laws. Rather the outlaws of society will continue to break laws. We are pushing pitbulls into the hands of criminals and away from loving and caring families.

What’s the Alternative to BSL?

There are many different factors that can result in a dog being aggressive or showing socially unacceptable behavior than what the breed of a dog is, things such as early experiences, socialization, sex of the dog, and how well they are trained. Training is a big factor that can really affect a dog’s bite risk.

  • Over 75% of dog bites involve unneutered male dogs being almost 3 times more like to show aggressive behavior.
  • Chained dogs are also 3 times more likely to bite.
  • Almost all dogs involved in fatal attacks were not spayed/neutered.
  • 81% were not treated as pets but used for other nonethical practices.
  • 83% were owned by reckless owners. which were neglected and abused, and didn’t have proper living conditions.

 With proper care and preventive steps the highly feared pitbull can be the most loyal dog and man’s true best friend. We can finally fight against this disputed law and make a difference. We are becoming more accepting as a society in the past 100 years, but we still have further to go and this is just the next step.

There is no evidence that any form of BSL laws work or are effective. Many counties throughout the U.S. spend thousands of dollars on enforcing BSL laws There is no evidence that breed specific laws that are expensive and hard to enforce help improve communities well being. 

Red Nose Pitbull History

Red Nose Pitbulls are by far some of the oldest and well know strains of pitbulls. Believe it or not they have around 150 years of history. The color and drive of a Red Nose Pitbull is unlike any other Strain of pitbull. Most people wonder what separates the Red Nose Pitbull from other colors of pitbulls?

Let’s start off with the history that begun this wonderful breed. In the 19th century there were pit bulls in Ireland that were know as “Old Family.” All the strains at the time were closely Inbreed and that is how they got the red color. Because red is recessive to all colors other than white. So the only way they could get this color was with Inbreeding the dogs very closely.

By this time the red color of pit bulls was very know all around the United Kingdom and since they originated from Ireland the red nose pitbulls were called “Irish Old Family Reds,” but then the dogs started to come to America with immigrants from the United Kingdom and some of the red pit bulls were imported from Ireland.

In America we hear the term OFRN “Old Family Red Nose” but most people do not know that these dogs never did originate from the United States. The Red Nose Pitbull was so popular because of its unique color and gameness. Still to this day the rednose pitbull will out perform any other color of pitbull.  Another big reason why people still choose a red colored dog is because they have great skin and health unlike most blue pitbulls.

The Red Nose pitbull we have today is nothing like the original reds we have crossed it with other bloodlines and breeds to water down their original bloodline. Dog fighting and bull baiting is illegal in almost all countries so we are no longer able to use the Red Nose Pitbull for what people in Ireland originally created them for. Still to this day the reds are a great working dog if you get the right bloodline or they can be a wonderful family dog
