World largest pitbull is named "HULK"

The world largest pitbull has been names Hulk who weights 175 pounds.

But you might not be aware of why this fellow is controversial among many in the animal rescue community.And it's not because of his personality, which by all accounts tends toward smushy-face marshmallow

The problem, some argue, is that Hulk comes from a breeder. That same breeder is now offering the big dog up as a stud -- impregnation services are listed at $20,000 -- while some 1.2 million dogs, many of them pit bulls, are killed in shelters across the country every year.
