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

The Black & Tan is one of many tracking breeds that was developed in the south of the United States. The breed can trace its immediate ancestry to the American Foxhound and the Virginia Foxhound of colonial days, with probably the introduction of some Bloodhound stock. This latter would explain not only the coloration of the Black & Tan, but its tendency toward being larger-boned than other breeds, its long ears, and its famous cold nose. The American Black & Tan was the first coonhound breed to be admitted into registry with UKC. When they were first registered in 1900, and for several years after that, they were registered as American Black & Tan Fox & Coonhounds. |
