Lost Loved One

This is Cat, the youngest pit. She and Braedon share almost the same birthday.
This is our beloved Nikki!

This is Tank, our HUGE male. He is a little fiesty! But he can be lovable too..We do believe he is getting old and sick though!!!!


This is our precious precious Nik. He loved Braedon... He loved all of us. I hate not seeing him everytime I go out in the yard or hearing his whining bark that used to get on my nerves! I always knew when Nik barked something was around... he is greatly missed!!!



On Valentine's Day this year we lost a beloved member of our family, our dog, Nik! Nik has been around all of my life with Johnathan. We started out with 3 of these pits all brother and sisters. They are absolutely the most wonderful dogs. Pits have a bad name, and yes, I am somewhat cautious with Braedon. But with Nik and Nikki it was different. A dog is what you make it. These dogs were very VERY vicious when it came to hog hunting but when they unloaded out of that dog box at HOME it was a very different story. They were all very protective of me and especially with Braedon. I am very careful how I talk to Braedon and how I treat him in the yard... We or shall I say I lost the first one, on August 26, 2007! Before Braedon of course, John was not home and that was the worst conversation I've ever had with him on the phone!!! Anyway God took care of that one because I would have never allowed Braedon to play with her... she had a temper! NOW Nik, was a different story. He was raised around Jayden as a baby and he loved attention and was great with kids. We lost him to cancer. It was just a sad sad day and it still stinks to walk out in the yard and he is not there. We still have Nikki... I raised her in my house as a puppy. She has been retired from hunting for long time due to a bad hip and no teeth!!! She sleeps in the house or in her chair on the front porch. She is very very spoiled.... BUT no one with good sense gets out when she is out unless of course they know us or her.... except for my brother, Michael.... she does not like him in the least! But anyway she is our most beloved animal... It seems like we are about to lose our other male. He is a little sickly! This only leaves me with 3 dogs.. .which is way odd for me. We have already purchased a new male pit 6 week old, Sully! WE have not picked him up yet but we will. Maybe a few pics will upload of our animals.
