A very realistic rendering of a popular breed, especially here in the South. My daughter, a vet, says that these dogs are very sweet and don't deserve their reputation as fighters. Their owners and fans would agree. Our master ceramicist has done a great job on this fellow. Pitties come in many colors but these colorings are fairly typical. Remember to place small candies or little house plants such as those popular succulents in our mugs and wrap for Valentine's Day and Mothers' Day for easy sales.
