"Welcome to Tom Garner Kennels, your #1 source for the highest quality pit bulls available on the planet today. We have produced more noteworthy dogs and satisfied customers in the past 45 years than any other Pit Bull breeding kennel on the planet. The APBT breed standard stipulates that our dogs must be completely people friendly, intelligent, stable, athletically superior and uncompromisingly courageous. We will not compromise on any of these criteria. We breed to a standard, not for a particular purpose. We believe that faithfully breeding to a well-reasoned set of ideals best serves both man and dog."

In recent years a phenomenal number of top class dogs have been produced in Brazil at Fulvio's Kennel by crossing dogs heavy from my Chinaman blood with Fulvio's Blacker blood. The Blacker dogs are high quality Eli dogs bred down through Midnight Cowboy, Hargrove's Rufus, Eunices Cracker Jack and others.  Not being kennel blind, a few years ago I acquired a very heavy Blacker female (Little III) from Fulvio and bred her to Kemo, one of my best Chinaman studs. Several high caliber animals resulted from this Eli blend, with Bushwick Bill being the shining star at the pinnacle of a superb litter. He has all the gifts one could hope for in a world class bulldog. In this breeding we have doubled up on the phenomenal Kemo blood, breeding Bushwick Bill to has half sister Kayla. In this mating I chose to double-up on Kemo's great genes, but bring some pure Eli into both the paternal and maternal grand-dam portions of the pedigree. In this manner, we concentrate the extraordinary Kemo genes and fortify the Eli extreme athleticism at the same time. Garner's Ceasar was a highly respected athlete and producer and he has reproduced his own excellence in both Jim Smiley and Shine. Both are extraordinary athletes that capture the excellence of their "Hall of Fame" ancestors. These pups have an extra measure of drive/vitality and seem to capture the Frisco magic. Jim Smiley is the product of a remarkable breeding matrix that incorporates Frisco, Ceasar, Lee Ling, Elmo and Simba. Likewise, Shine boasts Frisco, Ceasar, Lee Ling, Elmo and Otto. Take a look at the image of this litter and just imagine which great dogs from this fantastic pedigree have been reincarnated here! Note that Dynomite and Elmo are greats from the fantastic Frisco x Lee Ling breeding! If you want great Eli/Chinaman blood, with a stunning pedigree and phenotypically extraordinary parents, I don't believe you can do better than this! These pups are $2000.
