Welcome to The Real Pit Bull Forum, the official forum of The Real Pit Bull/realpitbull.com. We're glad to have you here!

On RPBF, we take pride in our upbeat and polite attitudes. We can disagree about this or that, but name calling and rudeness are never allowed. This is a forum where members feel safe, and free from being belittled or harassed, yelled at or treated poorly.

Everyone is free to state opinions or post topics of their choice, however please consider the following:

1) NO posting of dogs for sale, up for stud, or general kennel promotion.
2) ANY post that is deemed promotion of questionable breeding practices will be DELETED.
3) This is 100% ANTI-DOG FIGHTING ZONE!!!! We can talk about and discuss history, but we are 100% opposed to 'game dog breeders', game testing, rolling, fighting, etc. NO tolerance of ANY posts that support these things.
4) This forum promotes positive training - no posts that promote use of choke chains, prong collars, shock collars, alpha rolls, or similar training tractics.

We are all here to learn and grow as APBT guardians and enthusiasts. This is OUR forum - let's all work together to keep the environment here positive and welcoming!
