American Pitbull Terrier Forum:
Kennels

Hey Jess, I have pit bulls, and they are on chains. It is for their safety and mine as well. Pit bulls have a bad rap now we don't need to make it any worse for them. During the winter my dogs have huge outside kennels and their dog houses even a person can sleep in. If my males were not seperated they would fight all the time and it would break my heart if something happened to anyone of them. They go for walks every day and have play time, but where I live it is to cold to take them out for more then just a short time. I have a female that can break a 1000 pound chain so she has to be behind a 5 or 6 foot fence as we live close to the highway and she has been missed 3 times by cars in getting hit. I do love my pits and I do not like them to be on chains but it is safe for me and them. Pit bull terriers are the best thing that ever happened to me I would not own any other dog.

I dont believe your dog can break 1000lb chain. It can't be a 1000lb chain. Pits have to be chained. For there safety and the safety other peoples pet and animals in your area.
