10 Signs That You May Be a Pit Bull Lover

ByBlogPaws Team

If you’ve ever shared your home with a pit bull, you know there’s nothing like it. Pit bull owners face unique challenges, and enjoy unique benefits. Fortunately, those of us who are fans of these amazing dogs have lots of great resources available to us – from tips on socializing your dog, to tools to help combat breed discrimination in your community. Here’s my list of signs that you just might be a pit bull lover:

  1. You shop for your dog’s Halloween costume in the children’s department, rather than the pet section.
  2. Your house is “puppy” proof – and your dog is 6 years old.
  3. You’ve ever been jealous of your dog’s muscle tone.
  4. Your dog doesn’t fetch tennis balls – she chews them like gumballs.
  5. Your tug-of-war arm is noticeably larger than the other.
  6. Your dog has his own spot on the couch.
  7. You know which side of the bed your dog prefers.
  8. Your coworkers have heard so much about your “baby” that they are surprised when you show them pictures of a dog on your phone.
  9. Your neighbor buys expensive squirrel-proof bird feeders, while your yard remains squirrel-free.
  10. You can’t imagine life without a blocky headed, wriggling, grinning furkid.


Blog paws bio At the Blog Paws conference this August, I’m extending an invitation to all pit bull owners and enthusiasts to get together for a short “meet and greet” session. I’d love to give everyone a chance to meet face to face to share stories and concerns, and to create a mini-community within the greater Blog Paws community.

If you are interested in participating, find me on the Blog Paws Community  join the Pit Bull Lovers Group  or send me an email (sarah@richmondpetlovers.com) for more information.

Can’t wait to see you there!

  1. This is excellent! I might be getting back with you Sarah to see about putting this on a t-shirt for our Atlanta Pit Bull Parents group! And yeah, just yesterday I reposted pictures of my girl in her costumes bought in the children’s department. Where else am I going to find a bikini to fit a pit bull?!
