When it comes to this special breed of Terriers, TK Kennel is definitely home to the Northwoods’ finest American Pit Bull Terriers! TK Kennel is a family-oriented business – not just within our own family, but within every family that has welcomed into their home one of our exceptional puppies. APBT is one of the best, most versatile breeds to own, and provide the highest quality puppies available.

According to Wikipedia and breedingbusiness.com, “The American Pit Bull Terrier (or APBT) is a dog breed recognized by the United Kennel Club and the American Dog Breeders Association, but not the American Kennel Club. It is a medium-sized, intelligent, short-haired dog, of a solid build, whose early ancestors came from the British Isles.”

The United Kennel Club states “The essential characteristics of the American Pit Bull Terrier are strength, confidence, and zest for life. This breed is eager to please and brimming over with enthusiasm”

Important to note are the qualities of temperament, including intelligence, loyalty and obedience, as well as gentleness. APBTs are affectionate, loving and kind; they are courageous, strong-willed and truly make outstanding companions and family members, especially noted for their love of children. Just ask our four children. They are involved with all aspects of our breeding program, including training, healthy feeding habits, sole responsibility for a dog’s daily needs, signs of sickness, distress, and even detecting heat cycles. They really enjoy learning about and especially helping with the raising of the puppies.
