I believe it's 1800 n up depending on what you're looking for (imports) They're so worth it and much more. Big and beautiful puppies with a great temperament!
Community answer · Rachel Alvarado · 2019-09-21
Don't quote me on it but I think they sell puppies for 2500 each.

I have a pitbull terrier and I wanted to know is it possible to train her??? She's around 2 years but she's not much of a "guard" dog.
It truly depends on your dogs temperament, not every dog should be trained for personal protection. Go to a personal protection trainer to see if your dog would be a candidate.

Contact them... the trainers there are fantastic. I'm sure they can help you out. Either by doing private lessons, getting you enrolled in an obidence class, or by boarding your dog for training if that works best. They may want to do an "evaluation" of your pup first to see where she is at. I can't recommend this place enough. Have two shepherds from them that are incredible!
