Eddington Pit Bull Bloodlines
After Edgar Eddington was the national weight pulling champion for 12
years in a row, he was given the go ahead to cross the American Bulldog,
and Dog de Bordeaux into his Freeman bloodline pit bulls. He was given a
single registry for "Wanna be a Whopper" and the Eddington line of XXL
pit bulls was born.
Since then the line has been bred back into quality (larger) pit bull bloodlines and has been dominating weight pull circles.
There is a great deal of controversy surrounding these dogs, in fact Mr. Eddington was actually beaten to death with his own weight pull trophy. To this day, his murder has never been solved.
One gentleman from a kennel known as Pit Stop stated: "My ADBA registered pit bull has the "whopper" in his pedigree 5 generations back on his dams' top side. Other than being 80lbs at 10 months, my dog appears to be all pit bull. But the truth is that Eddington pit bulls are mixed."
Eddington's early pit bull bloodlines consisted of bloodlines such as William and Long as show in the link.
