The $75,000 Micro Pit Bull

FORGET Pugs, Pomeranians or Chihuahuas - the rich and famous could soon be carrying a PIT BULL in their Gucci handbags. A new breed of “micro pit bulls” is rapidly becoming the must-have canine companion in the world of designer dogs. John Truitt, 30, from Long Beach in California, runs The Collectibulls, a company which breeds, trains, and sells ‘bullies’ to customers around the world, and is a leading advocate for the breed. His signature dog is Queen Califa, a 12-inch-high “micro pit bull” who has been valued at over $75,000.
