Definitely @$$hole fighters if you ask me. Socialize your dog as much as possible and enroll him in training classes.

1.) they look like puppies
2.) not good breeding stock
3.)the males confirmation of his front legs makes me think that exercize is a rare commodity which to me means neglect. the carpu shouldn't be bent like that.
pitbulls are prone to nearly every single disease known. i would be very careful with this puppy and make sure you spay/neuter it

HI
The dogs that you showed dont look like they have been fought b/c the ears would be cropped. They do that so when the dogs are fighting they cant grab on to them. Both dogs as far as I can tell have full ears. I noticed you said you live in the philippines so maybe its different there. Also if they are fighting their dogs you might notice treadmills, springpoles used to build endurance and muscle. (these are often used by non fighting dogs also... so not a really good sign) and you might see bait dogs (dogs of different breeds they use to train their dogs to fight).

If they are from a fighting line just how far back in their line were the dogs used for fighting? The ancestors of the pits were used for fighting thats why quite a few pits are DOG aggressive even though their lines have not have been bred for that purpose for many years. Its in their genes.

A true line of the fighting bred dogs were and still are not tolerated if they are human aggressive, b/c the handlers have to go in and seperate the dogs. So they were not kept if they showed signs of human aggressiveness. They might have a higher prey drive but there are alot of fighting dogs that have been rehomed with no problems after being temperment tested. They have become loving household pets.

I would try and find out more info on the kennel to see if they breed and keep the good temperments in their bloodlines.

I am in no way for fighting dogs in fact I think its very cruel. I own one of the goofiest pits.:)
I agree the dogs show no signs of being faught. Their ears are not cropped and I do not see any scars on them either. A fighting dog can still be rehomed with kids as well. You must be careful on their genetic health though. I had purchased a pitbull mix with bad genetic temperment and he ended up attacking me twice and I had to get stitches. He ended up getting PTS. I have a year and a half year old daughter and the doctor's and animal control staff said that if he had grabbed her with the same tenacity as he had grabbed me then she would have been dead before we could have been able to get him off of her. I would look for a very highly respectable pitbull breeder, or atleast enroll him in puppy school and obedience school for as long as you can as soon as you can. I also can not stress enough to socialize this pup now as he is still young, let strangers pet him, have people come in your house and interact with him. He needs to be around babies, kids, adults, and old people. Any type of person he could ever possibly run into you will have to get him accustomed to. Good luck with the pup.

My first pitbull, carlito belongs to the so called fighting line. Many people warned me when I purchased that pup. They said that pitbulls especially the fighting types are very aggressive. A lot of write-ups will say the same thing. Well, I've proven that it is not true. My gamebred pitbull or fighting line for that matter is the sweetest and friendliest dog in our kennel. He is not aggressive to people nor is he aggressive to other animals. I guess either he is so nice or he is close to "stupid". He lets other people hold him, pet him. He plays with my beagles. Thus, the conclusion is, its how you raise your dog. If you raise him to be mean, he will be mean. The pitbulls in the picture looks nice. I see no problems with it. There are no bruises or scratches from pit fighting. Just give your pitbull pure love and care, someday you'll have a nice, loyal, and loving companion.
