How to View California Pits' Stud Dogs and Contact the Breeder
Updated
To see the available stud dogs, open californiapits.com and go to the OUR MALES section. The site lists four males — Buster Brown, Bleu Boy, El General, and Rocky Road — each marked as AVAILABLE for stud services, with a "See More" link for details. To inquire, use the contact form on the same page or reach the breeder directly at [email protected] or (951) 544-4497.
The Four Stud Dogs Listed
All four dogs carry the "PR" (Purple Ribbon) prefix in their registered names, consistent with the site's description of its UKC Purple Ribbon bloodlines.
| Dog | Registered Name | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Buster Brown | 'PR' Castillo's Buster Brown of CA | Available for stud services |
| Bleu Boy | 'PR' Castillo's Bleu of CA | Available for stud services |
| El General | 'PR' Castillo's El General of CA | Available for stud services |
| Rocky Road | 'PR' Castillo's Rocky Road of CA | Available for stud services |
The site does not publish stud fees, health testing results, or contract terms on the pages shown. Those details would need to come from the breeder directly.
Step-by-Step: From Browsing to Inquiring
- Open the site. Go to californiapits.com. The homepage introduces the program, established in 1982, with a Hemphill/Wallace foundation described as breedings between 'Red Brava' and Purple Ribbon 'Hazard Joe.'
- Navigate to OUR MALES. This section presents the four stud dogs above. Each entry has a "See More" link — follow it for whatever additional detail that dog's page provides.
- Note which dog interests you. The listing itself gives names and availability status only, so record the specific dog before contacting the breeder.
- Choose a contact channel. The CONTACT US section offers two options:
- Email: [email protected]
- Phone: (951) 544-4497
- Use the contact form if you prefer. The form asks for Name, Phone, Email, Subject, and Message. After submission the page shows a "Thanks for submitting!" confirmation — treat that as receipt only, not as a reply.
- Verify before committing. Confirm stud fee, health clearances, and contract terms in writing before any arrangement. None of these appear on the site as shown.
What to Include in Your Inquiry
Since the site gives no fee or testing information, a useful first message names the dog and asks directly. For example:
- Which of the four males are currently open for stud, and what is the fee?
- What health testing has the dog completed, and can you share documentation?
- What are the contract terms (live cover vs. shipped semen, if offered, and any guarantees)?
- What is the dog's current age and show record?
The site describes the line as having a "strong champion and grand champion background" and dogs suited to "working, showing, and families," but it does not itemize titles per dog on the pages shown — so ask for specifics rather than relying on the general claim.
Common Snags
- "See More" pages may be thin. The main listing gives little beyond name and availability; don't assume the detail pages contain full health or pedigree records.
- Form confirmation is not a reply. The "Thanks for submitting!" message only confirms the form went through. If you need a timely answer, the email address or phone number is the more direct route.
- Availability can change. The "AVAILABLE" labels reflect the site at the time you view it; confirm current status before planning a breeding.
- No pricing is published. Nothing on the site indicates cost, so budget questions must go to the breeder.
