The Big Boi Main Page

At The Big Boi Kennel, we specialize in breeding Blue-Nose American Pit-bull Terriers and produce blue pit-bull puppies a few times a year. We have many years of breeding experience and are located in Passaic County, New Jersey, a short distance from Pennsylvania, New York and Connecticut. Although blue-nose bullies are our specialty, we also offer Red-Nose American Pi-Bull Terriers. We pride ourselves in our bullies and their physical structure and take much pleasure in providing pit-bull lovers with excellent pets, great companions and worthy protectors. Also, we provide a pit-bull stud service for qualified dams.


At our kennel, we have some of the most exclusive gray-line blood on the east coast. All of our bullies are purple ribbon bred and registered with the U.K.C. These bullies are solid gray-line bred, American Pit-Bull Terriers and have proven themselves to be some of the top producing bullies in the Tri-State Area. When you purchase a bully from our kennel, you can rest assured that you will receive an A-1 quality blood-line bred bully, from a knowledgeable kennel.


Our puppies will not be separated from their mother until they are at nine weeks of age, at which time they will be eligible to be purchased. Upon receiving your pit-bull puppy, you will also receive your U.K.C. Registration Form. We also provide the family history of that bully, as well as pit-bull training tips, pit-bull weight pulling information and tips on feeding your pit-bull puppy.



The Big Boi Kennel Studs

On this page, you will, also, view pictures of our studs and studs that deal with The Big Boi Kennel. Our studs are the definition of the word "Bully". They are short, stocky, block-headed pit-bulls with great temperaments. Also, they are very loyal and obedient, and make great companions, as well as produce the same qualities in their litters of offspring that we breed.


All studs are open for stud service to qualified dams. We charge a flat rate for our stud service and may also be open to take "puppy back" deals. And, of course, all of our studs are registered with the U.K.C. and are up to date on all of their shots.

The Big Boi Kennel Dams

At The Big Boi Kennel, we focus on our females just as much as we focus on our males. Our superb blood-lines can produce extraordinary bullies in both genders, and we have living proof of that all over our website, http://www.thebigboikennel.webs.com/. Like our studs, our dams also define the word "Bully". They are just as stocky and muscular as our studs and, also, produce the same qualities in their litters of offspring.


As with our studs, we have a strict requirement for our dams. All of our bullies must develop a certain aspect to be considered for breeding. Our dams should also posses and replicate qualities that we find desirable to be considered suitable bullies for our kennel and to take part in our breeding program. They must exceed the requirements that we have set and prove themselves to be worthy of being in our yard and carrying our name.

History Of The Breed

The American Pit-Bull Terrier is a descendant of the English Bull-Baiting Bulldog and has, historically, been bred with working and performance goals in mind. The challenge of describing the American Pit-Bull Terrier inevitably invites a long sequence of qualities that surpass any other breed. This breed is supremely athletic, highly versatile and very adaptive to almost any environment. Its courage, indefatigability, indifference to pain and stubborn perseverance in overcoming any challenge makes the American Pit-Bull Terrier unlike any other breed in the canine world. Although the breed is greatly misunderstood today, through these qualities, the American Pit-Bull Terrier was once used as a national symbol of courage and pride.


There are several types of breeds that are commonly called "Pit-Bulls". Primarily, these breeds are the American Pit-Bull Terrier, the American Staffordshire Terrier and the Staffordshire Bull-Terrier. All three of these breeds share common ancestry but have been subsequently bred, emphasizing different breeding criteria. Due to this variation, in breeding, some people feel that they are different breeds. Others choose to view them as different "strains" of the same breed.


During the late 18th and early 19th centuries, the sport of bull-baiting was very popular in England and dogs were bred to excel in this endeavor. The same breed of dog was used by hunters to catch game and by butchers and farmers to bring down unruly cattle. These dogs were called "Bull-Dogs". Historically, the word "bull-dog" did not mean a specific breed of dog. The term was actually used to describe the purpose of the breed.


When Bull-Baiting was outlawed in England, in 1835, the sport of matching two dogs against one-another, in combat, rose in popularity, to fill the void. One point of contention about the history of the American Pit-Bull Terrier is weather these pit fighting dogs were essentially a new breed of dog, specifically created for this popular pastime.


In the mid 19th century, the breed was introduced to the United States. Once in the United States, the breed slightly evolved from what was being bred in England. In America, these dogs were used not only as pit fighters, but also as guardians for families and catch dogs to forcibly retrieve stray hogs and cattle. For this purpose, breeders started producing a slightly larger and stockier dog. This breed was called "The American Pit-Bull Terrier".


In 1898, a man named Chauncey Z. Bennett formed the United Kennel Club, more commonly known as the U.K.C., for the sole purpose of registering the American Pit-Bull Terrier, as the American Kennel Club, more commonly known as the A.K.C., wanted nothing to do with the breed. All other breeds that were accepted into the A.K.C. were accepted into the U.K.C. after the American Pit-Bull Terrier.


In 1936, thanks to "Pete The Pup", in "The Little Rascals", who familiarized a wider audience with the American Pit-Bull Terrier, the A.K.C. decided to jump on the bandwagon and register the breed as the "Staffordshire Terrier". This name was later changed to the "American Staffordshire Terrier", in 1972. During this time period, the American Pit-Bull Terrier was a well liked breed in America and was considered the ideal family pet. Since the original A.K.C. stock of American Staffordshire Terriers came from bullies which were registered with the U.K.C., both the U.K.C. and the A.K.C. versions of the breed are identical.

Discipline



Loyalty

Even though the American Pit-Bull Terrier was bred to excel in combat, with other dogs, a well bred bully has a rock steady temperament and, contrary to popular belief, is not inherently aggressive towards humans. However, as adults, some American Pit-Bull Terriers may show aggression towards other dogs, rightfully taking the title of "The Bully Breed".
