Life is the "Pits"

Lucy--around 9months old
Wild Streak (Streaky)--8 years old
--this is a typical scene around the house...these two are buddies!

Storm--11 weeks old (Streak's Daughter)


Storm--7 weeks old
Storm--5 weeks old

Most of you may know that we own Pitbulls but some of you may have never seen them, especially the newest one. Lucy, the red pit, isn't here ...yet! We are looking at getting her [back] soon...we had her for a few months and then traded her back to her original owner and got a puppy(Storm) from a litter that Streak sired. Kenny has always missed Lucy so when we recently visited her this past weekend Kenny and our friend Scott worked it out in order for Kenny to get his little girl back! Aaarrggghhhh! 3 dogs and 3 kids in a 1,000 sq. ft. home! Are we crazy or what? Yes, I agree...CRAZY! I'm not sure how it's gonna work out... I will take care of kids and Kenny will take care of dogs, haha!
The picture of Elijah and Streak reminds me of when we had our first pitbull and Benjamin basically treated her like a sibling. He and Halo did everything together and she put up with so much abuse fom him just like Streak does with Elijah! Despite what many of you may think about Pitbulls they really are excellent companions and really good with kids, especially because of their high pain tolerance!
Kenny is bummed that I chose not to crop Storm's ears but I think she's cute with them floppy!
Besides, it seems like people are less afraid of pitbulls when they have floppy ears, maybe cuz they don't realize they are pits?!
