I have raised and trained 2 pit bulls and have played grandma to two 2 week old pit bull puppies. I nursed the puppies by bottle feeding because their mother suffered postpartum issues. I have my Chihuahua Terrier mix that is the heir to my throne. Caine is my soul nourish-er that I have had for 6 years. He is very well mannered and has been the big brother to all of my pit bulls.
