The Pitbull I Know

Four-legged friend affecting touchingly
The glow never ceases
Wagging tail moving swiftly
My heart, it always reaches

Poor reputation affected immensely
No justice does it do
Passed on rumors spreading rapidly
No one has a clue

Apparent brawns intimidating innocently
Bulky and strong is all that it shows
Agile grace awing everlastingly
A wonder no one knows

Loyal morals devoting faithfully
Dedication we couldn't amount
Caring nature loving wholeheartedly
An extent we couldn't count

Internal light gleaming brightly
Radiance we wouldn't try outshine
All-around prominence enjoying happily
I know this pitbull is mine

Madison Thixton, 12yrs old

Rat Terrier

The Rat Terrier is an American breed descended from the terriers brought over by English miners and other working class immigrants. These dogs were used as ratters, and gambling on their prowess in killing rats was a favorite hobby of their owners. Eventually, these tough little terriers evolved into today’s Rat Terrier. The breed was popularized by President Teddy Roosevelt, who frequently hunted with his Rat Terriers. The Rat Terrier was recognized by the United Kennel Club on January 1, 1999.
