What Is A Blue Razor Edge Pitbull?
Blue Razor Edge Pitbulls are a mixed breed between a pureblood Pitbull and an English Bulldog or Mastiff. These animals are bred as companion dogs rather than purebred Pitbulls that are produced for competition.
The blue and white colors of the Razor Edge Pitbull are typically the color you will find. They were bred to make sure they maintain this color.
Pitbulls will only become aggressive if they are trained that way due to their competitive nature, but the Razor Edge Pitbull bloodlines are typically gentle. The Razor Edge Pitbull bloodline is one of the most sought-after breeds due to its gentle nature and companion characteristics. If raised in a home and socialized from a young age, a Blue Razor Edge Pitbull can be the right family pet.
Brief History of the Blue Razor Edge Pitbulls
This particular Pitbull bloodline is relatively new.
In the 1980s, the breed was created by Dave Wilson and Carlos Barksdale to make a companion Pitbull. They were looking to develop a Pitbull with a muscular chest and short snout to form a stockier breed. They mixed the Pitbull with various species till they were able to find the perfect combination.
The breeding took seven generations to create the Razor Edge Pitbull with the amenable characteristics that Wilson wanted and much research of different bloodlines to find the right one.
Appearance of the Blue Razor Edge Pitbulls
The Razor Edge Pitbull has an appearance that is quite distinct from how they are bred, ensuring they look different from other pit bull breeds.
Head and face
The head of this Pitbull is large with a square muzzle.
This can give them an aggressive look if you do not know the dog.
The color of the nose can be different depending on the breed and the gene pool it has. Typically though, the nose will match the color of the coat on the rest of the dog.
The ears on a Blue Razor Edge Pitbull can either be cropped or pointy depending on the gene pool in which it was created. The facial expressions of this particular breed may seem to be dopey, but in fact, they are quite smart animals whose large heads and squashed muzzle can make it appear the opposite.
Body and build
The build of this Pitbull is a very short, stocky, and strong build.
These dogs were built to have a strong chest and thick legs. Just like any other Pitbull breed, they have a muscular physique and a healthy body. However, the end of the Blue Edged Razor Pitbull is shorter and stockier than a normal Pitbull.
Weight and size
Gender is a significant factor in how much these Pitbulls weigh. The Razor Edge Pitbull’s weight is mainly muscle which can be a factor in determining its weight and size.
Male | Female | |
Height | 18-19 inches | 17-18 inches |
Weight | 55-70 pounds | 40-55 pounds |
Colors
The color of a Blue Razor Edge Pitbull can differ. Depending on the genes passed to the Pitbull, the colors will vary. Nevertheless, the perception is that the color of most of these Pitbulls alternate between the shades of gray and black. They also have white markings on their face, chest, and feet.
Coat
This type of Pitbull coat is a deficient shedding dog, meaning that your grooming schedule does not have to be consistent.
The consistency of the coat is short and stiff, with glossy color. This can help with the shedding as well. Also, the coat will only contain one color meaning it will typically match the dog’s nose.
What Are the Character Traits of a Blue Razor Pitbull?
If a Blue Razor Pitbull is raised in a loving, caring environment, its natural companionable temperament will come out.
A Pitbull is naturally energetic and will need plenty of exercise. The Blue Razor Pitbull loves to play and go for walks. This will help keep your Pitbull active and socialized, ensuring there is less of a chance they will become aggressive.
These dogs also have human-like emotions and make decisions quite like that of a human. This means they can make rational and irrational decisions and will relate to their owner’s emotions. The Blue Razor Edge Pitbull will have a human’s loyalty and be very stubborn if their feelings get hurt.
They can be quite adaptable to different environments as long as they are socialized as young puppies. If not, they can become hostile and become jealous of the attention you may pay to other dogs. They are loyal, kind dogs that may require a bit more kind and gentle training due to their temperament and ability to make decisions.

How to choose an ethical breeder
Now that you’ve contacted a couple of breeders and maybe organised to visit their kennels, how do you choose a responsible and ethical breeder?
Pitbulls are a popular dog breed to breed. Unethical breeders breed Pitbulls for their own monetary gain rather than being a responsible steward of the breed. People who run large-scale breeding operations like Puppy Mills or small-scale Backyard Breeders are considered unethical.
Use our checklist below when buying your Razor Edge Pitbull to ensure you are using a reputable breeder.
Health certificate
Ensure your breeder offers a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian. This ensures their dogs have been screened for hereditary health issues that are common to the Pitbull breed.
The minimum health checks you should insist on are:
- OFA or Pennhip for canine hip dysplasia and/or elbow dysplasia
- OFA heart
- CERF eyes.
Titles/Papers
For the best pedigree Pitbulls, one of the breeding parents should have titles (papers) from the United Kennel Club, American Kennel Club, and/or the American Bully Kennel Club. This title backs up the claim that the pups are bred from championship bloodlines. It demonstrates that the parent’s excelled as champions either at performance events or the show ring.
Health Guarantee
The best breeders offer a 2 year health guarantee.
If a licensed vet diagnoses your pup with a serious genetic issue within 2 years of purchase that affects their quality of life, the breeder will offer a refund of the purchase price or provide another puppy.
Some of the breeders listed in Table B above provide Health Guarantees.
Vaccinations and treatments
Check the breeder has vaccinated your puppy from diseases like parvovirus, canine distemper, adenovirus type 2, and parainfluenza.
Check that the breeder has commenced a deworming protocol.
They should be able to provide records of vaccinations and worming treatments.
The breeding process
The breeder should only breed Blue Razor Edge Pitbulls or pitbulls only and not any other breed.
The breeder should only breed a number of times per year and does not have puppies available year round.
The breeder should not advertise their dogs as good guard dogs. If they do, this means they could be breeding aggressive dogs.
Community
Kudos goes to breeders who are active in breed rescue which demonstrates their passion and concern for Pitbulls.
Visits
The breeder should allow you to visit their kennels and view the pups with their mom.
Whilst at the kennels, check the facility is clean and humane.
Questions
An ethical breeder should ask you lots of questions and not just ask you for payment. Questions like how much do you know about the breed, your experience, the dog’s living conditions at home, why you want a dog and so on.
The breeder wants to be assured their puppy is going to a responsible new owner and they will be looked after.
Read the contract thoroughly
You should thoroughly read the breeders contract. Here’s a useful guide from the American Kennel Club.
