FACTS & TIPS
HOW TO
STOP YOUR
L
PUPPY CHEWING
PROBLEM
earning how to stop your puppy from chewing can become a
difficult chore that will leave you
frustrated, especially when they get
ahold of your favorite pair of shoes,
or they are constantly chewing on
you.
But, again, this is a human problem as much as a puppy problem.
In order to stop your pupply from chewing on you, you need to pay
attention to what you do that instigate it.
If you want to stop your puppy
from chewing, there are a few
things that you need to understand
about them before you just blame
them for their behavior.
Dogs can’t distinguish between play time and not play time. Although
they love to play, the habits that they will pick up then will transfer to
other times.
To begin with, chewing is a natural
part of being a puppy. Rather
than trying to stop them from this
natural behavior, you should work
towards redirecting the problem
to another source. Get them chew
toys and a bone thatthey are
allowed to gnaw on to their hearts content.
It is much easier to redirect a problem than to try and stop it completely, especially when the problem is more of a human problem
than a puppy one.
Another thing to consider is that certain behaviors tend to instigate
chewing, especially when they are chewing on you. This can lead to
dog aggression problems later on, so you need to nip it in the bud
now rather than putting it off.
8
Certain sudden movements, or aggressive behavior towards your
puppy (even in play) will push them into chewing. Also, when you are
playing, if they start chewing on you, stop the activity.
You should never allow your dog to play aggressively and chewing is
one of the easiest bad habits to break.
When they start chewing, redirect them to one of their play toys, and
separate yourself from them.
If the chewing problem persists, you may need to keep them in a
kennel until they learn to behave. Crate training can take some time,
but is very beneficial in stopping a wide variety of puppy problems,
including them wanting to chew on you.
Follow these tips to stop your puppy from chewing, and get them
under control. It doesn’t take much, but by paying attention to your
behavior and redirecting their behavior to an appropriate toy will help
you to get things under control.

MY CITY PET SUPPLIES
Owner / Founder - JOEL VARGAS aka RICO
State your name, and where your store is located?
My name is Rico. I am the owner of My City Pet Supplies,
located at 2026 New York Ave, in Union City, NJ.
What inspired you to start your own Bully Supply
store?
My City Pet Supplies was inspired by the love in the
American Bully community, and by my family as well. I
decided to open up a Pet Supply store especially dedicated to the American Bully Breed. Being that this is a
special breed, I felt that I should specialize in only
specific products that would benefit the breed, as well
as local bully owners.
Do you breed dogs, and if so what type of dogs do
you breed?
Yes, I breed dogs. I breed American Bullies, and Miniature English Bulldogs. I also purchased my first French
Bulldog recently. I am looking forward to start a French
Bulldog program soon.
What inspired you to get involved with that particular breed?
As a child, my father bred Pit Bulls, so we always had
dogs at home. At the age of 10 my uncle had given me
my first official Pit Bull female named Snow. Later on I
began to breed her to bigger Pit Bulls because I wanted
a special looking dog. I kept trying but I never succeeded until i stumbled upon the American Bully Breed. Just
seeing the American Bully, was inspiration enough.
As a Bully Supply store owner, what type of diet do
you recommend that people keep their dogs on
throughout the year?
I always recommend bully owners to keep raw meat in
their bully breed dogs’ diets, along with good kibble.
The two can be combined with a supplement of the
owners choice. I usually feed my dogs raw, mixed with
kibble, along with Dyne or Ultra 24 daily.
What is your favorite bloodline?
It would be selfish of me to pick a favorite bloodline
because I own many. I am into all bully breeds because
each bloodline has something different to offer.
What advice do you have for anyone looking to participate in the bully shows?
I would tell them to just enjoy themselves and the dogs,
10
while they experience the ring. Its all about having a
good time while having a chance to meet great people.
Who do you look up to in the bully game, and why?
There are a lot of people doing it right now in the Bully
Game. When I first started the people who I looked up
to were Dave Wilson, Ed Shepard, Cruz from Bow Wow
Pits, and Bill from Bills Blue Bullies. These guys laid down
a platform for us breeders to do what we do.
Looking back at 2014, tell us about one of your most
memorable moments.
My most memorable moment in 2014, was my wife
giving birth to our beautiful daughter, Avanni.
Describe how you would want things, in the bully
Community, to be 10 years from now.
I would to like to see nothing more than peace and love.
What separates My City Pet Supplies from the other pet
stores in the Tri-State area?
We are a family owned business. Our main goal is to
provide high quality products for your pets. With over 8
years of experiences on breeding American Bullies with
some of the top breeders in the game, we learned the
secrets to building a great looking dog. We specialize
in Custom Collars, high quality dog foods, raw meat
diets, and supplements. We thank everyone in the bully
community for your love and support. We do it for the
breed!
What do you think of Bully Girl Magazine?
My family and I enjoy Bully Girl Magazine, because it
helps us breeders showcase and promote our dogs, in a
professional manner to a world wide audience. We also
enjoy reading what breeders have to say and learning
about them, as well as their dogs in a positive manner.
Bully Girl Magazine showcases dogs from all over the
world, so you get to see what other enthusiasts have
out there. With that being said, I would like to give a
big shout out to LeVar, and Bully Girl Girl Magazine for
making this possible. Keep up the great work!
Big thanks to my Wife Ashley, my 2 beautiful Daughters,
my big brother Lilz, and most importantly God for his
blessings, and helping my dreams come true.
Shout out, to all the local Bully owners that have been
supporting us since day one. I also would like to shout
out Mark and Ruben from Bully Nation, Troy from Spitfire Kennelz, Na’im from Local Bullies, Kay from Ironvein
Kennel, and last but not least Ruben and Petrin Razo
from Destruction Bullies.

DJ MELLO
INDUSTRY BULLYS
“I come for the grind of it all. I remember carrying
crates, and using vinyl records. I didn’t just come onto
the scene with a laptop computer and call myself a DJ.”
How was your photo shoot today?
The shoot was crazy. It’s been a long time coming. I definitely needed that one right there!
Let our readers know what’s been going on
with DJ MELLO, over these past few months.
I kicked the summer off with that HOT 97 Boom
at Noon. That was crazy. Big shout out to DJ Enuff,
Mister Cee, and everybody who looked out for
me. Other than that, I’ve just been killing the
party scene, and turning up right now. We have
some records on the radio right now from Long
Island, and we’re just trynna keep this industry
buzz going. I just want to see Long Island shine.
How long have you been DJ’ing now?
I grew up into DJ’ing. My uncles were DJ’s. So I
got right into it, once I started listening to music.
I’ve been hands on with it since I was about 12
years old. I would always be around my uncles
when they would be DJ’ing at parties, and I knew
that it was something that I wanted to do.
Theres a lot of competition with the club scene
nowadays. There are so many DJ’s out there.
What separates DJ MELLO from the competition?
Well for starters, I come for the grind of it all. I remember carrying crates, and using vinyl records.
I didn’t just come onto the scene with a laptop
computer and call myself a DJ. I’ve been fortunate
enought to experience it all from the beginning,
to where it is now.
20
Word on the street is that you’ve put out
several mixtapes. Tell our readers about your
mixtape game.
I have a lot of mixtapes in the archives. Just
google DJ MELLO, or go on YouTube and DatPiff.
We’re always trying to put someone on, and help
out local Long Island artists.
Do a lot of artists come to you, asking your to
help them break out as a new artist, and play
their music?
There’s always people that come to me, or message me with new tracks. I don’t see it as a bad
thing. I’m always looking to help break a new
artist, especially if their from my hometown Long
Island. That’s a win for everybody.
Where do you see yourself, in the next year or
so, as far as this whole DJ’ing thing goes?
I see myself on one of the major radio stations,
breaking artists records, and doing my part to
help Long Island get the notoriety it deserves.
What advice can you offer an upcoming artist
or DJ that would like to follow in your footsteps one day?
Never stop. Never get discouraged. There’s a lot
of politics in this game. It’s hard to get booked for
parites. I still go through a lot of politics, so don’t
get discouraged when you don’t get booked. Just
keep working hard. They’re watching, and you
will definitely get your shot.

INDUSTRY BULLYS
“Be yourself. God gave us a chance to create our own
way. People will accept you if you just be yourself.”
Let our readers know where you’re from?
I’m from Trenton, NJ. Shoutout to Jersey. Shoutout to all my people out there.
How old were you when you first got into
music?
I started making music at the age of 12. I didn’t
really get serious about it until I was about 17. But
yeah I’ve been doing this for about a decade now.
I’m 22 years old.
If you had a choice to work with anybody in
the industry, who would it be?
I would have to say Kanye West or Kid Cudi, but I
honestly would work with anybody who has the
same drive and passion as me. We’re all working
towards the same common goal, and that’s to
make good music.
Tell our readers about your new mixtape.
This is my 4th mixtape. It’s called Golden Memories. You can go get it on iTunes and Amazon.
I feel like this is my best mixtape yet. It has 11
tracks, all professionally mixed and mastered. I’ve
worked with all different producers from overseas
producers to our in-house producers.
What positive advice can you offer to an up
and coming artist?
Find your lane. Find your sound. Nowadays, there
is a lot of copycat sounds. Don’t bite other peoples work. Be yourself. God gave us a chance to
create our own way. People will accept you if you
just be yourself. That’s my biggest advice.
What about performances? Have you been
opening up for anybody?
That’s funny that you mention that. I recently
opened up for Amina Buddafly, from Love & Hip
Hop. I try to do at least 3 or 4 performances a
month. I love speaking to the people, when I’m
on stage. That’s my thing.
Shoutout to my team, my publicist, and my bro
for always being there. Go get that Golden Memories today!
We see you won the Underground Music
Awards, for Artists to Watch in 2015. How did
that moment feel for you?
It felt good. It was the first time I attended an
award show for music. There were a lot of people
24
in the building. In my opinion we’re all winners,
but it did feel good to take home that category.

KENNELS - NY
“We treat our dogs as family, and we are on a first
name basis, with anyone that enters our kennel.”
State your kennel name, and where your kennel
is located.
My kennel name is Spitfire Kennelz, and we are
located in Bay Shore, NY.
What inspired you to start working with dogs?
As a child growing up in Trinidad, my sister used to
run a dog security business. One day when I was
assisting her at the business, she surprised me by
gifting me with 3 Rottweilers from Germany.
What are some of the main breeds you work
with?
I work primarily with Prince of Spade, Toadline,
Miagi, Kurupt, and West Coast Gottiline.
Do you breed dogs, and if so what type of dogs
do you breed?
Yes, I currently breed American Bully’s.
What inspired you to get involved with that
particular breed?
My nephew introduced me to the American Bully. I
loved their structure, stub nose, compactness, and
muscular build. I also fell in love with their temperament.
What type of diet do you recommend that people keep their dogs on throughout the year?
I feed my dogs various dog products, as they need
variety to prevent lack of appetite. I try to mix in raw
food as well, so they receive nutrients.
My favorite bloodlines are Prince of Spade, Toad,
and Miagi.
What advice do you have for anyone looking to
participate in the bully shows?
I would tell them to do a lot of training with their
38
dog beforehand, so that they are confident.
SPITFIRE KENNELZ
Who do you look up to in the bully game, and
why?
I look up to Bigslick’s Bullies, and Anthony Calabrese.
They taught me to focus on the love of dogs, not
the money. They also taught me to breed to achieve
a desired look.
Looking back at 2015, tell us about one of your
most memorable moments.
The most memorable moment of 2015 for me
would be adding the Miagi grandson, Bobble head,
to my line up.
Describe how you would want things, in the bully Commuity, to be 10 years from now.
I would like for every kennel to stop tearing the next
kennel down, and bring the fun back into competition.
What separates Spitfire Kennelz from the rest of
the bully kennels in the game?
We treat our dogs as family, and we are on a first
name basis, with anyone that enters our kennel.
What other hobbies or interests do you take part
in?
I love playing soccer and training dogs. You can
view my videos on Youtube. All you have to do is
search for Brooklyn Blue Bullies.
What motto do you live by?
I live by the motto ‘Pay it forward”.
They give notoriety to the up and coming kennels,
whether they are just starting out, or are veterans
in the game. They recognize the dogs, and the
backstory of the kennels. They help you to put a face
to the kennel.

5 star review by Janice Gilmore August 6,
2015
“Great Book for Children”
I love Barbara Freeman’s book “Super Smart
Sugar.” It definitely in a very subtle way
attacks stereotypes by showing the kind
and loving side of a pit bull. Pit Bulls are
often seen in a very bad light, but Sugar
is seen in a fun and delightful light. This
shows that dogs react to the love and
positive attention that are shown at home.
She engages children to take a look at their
dogs in a different way and actually interact
with them more. Barbara has a very kind
way of engaging children. It is a good read
for them and keeps their interest.
5 Star Review By Kelsie Smith
“Add Fun to Reading Time”
This book by Barbara Freeman is one of a
kind. I read this book with kids. I watched
and they got to pick out smart qualities
that their puppy has. This really teaches
kids to recognize those great characteristics in not only animals but in themselves
and their peers. I would recommend this
to any family looking to add some fun into
reading time!
5 Star Review by Knolan Tyrell Hudson
“Best Book Ever”
Love this book; I believe that this book is
appropriate for all ages. I’ve learned so
much about my dog and about pit bulls!
5 Star Review by Ashley Sims
“What an Awesome Read”
What an awesome read!!! I was able to read
this book with my daughters as well as our
new puppy. We found it intriguing, as we
were able to identify many of the “Smart”
characteristics in our own dog.

KENNELS - FL
“Keep it clean, have patience, and dedication, and never forget to set time aside to work with your dog.”
State your kennel name, and where your kennel
is located.
Hi my name is Alberto Alvarez, and my kennel is
located in Hollywood ,Florida.
What type of dogs do you breed, and what
inspired you to get involved with that particular
breed?
I breed pocket bully’s. What inspired me, was their
companionship, athleticism , and loyalty.
What type of diet do you keep your dogs on
throughout the year?
The diet my dogs stay on throughout the year, is
kibble based food, called diamond extreme athlete.
My favorite bloodlines would have to be Iron Bear
Buddha, Grey fox, Gottiline, and Razor’s edge because of their overall look and quality.
Do you currently show any of your dogs?
We currently do not show any of our dogs. We prefer
to focus on breeding and producing high quality
dogs.
What advice do you have for upcoming breeders?
My advice for upcoming breeders is to keep it clean,
have patience and dedication, and never forget to
set time aside to work with your dog.
What is the most difficult thing for people in the
bully game to overcome?
I would say the hardest thing not only in the bully
world, but in all dog breeds, is losing a loyal companion after years of having him or her around.
How do you think they can overcome this thing?
I would say trying to remember all the good times
42
and the memories that will last a lifetime.
IMPERIAL KENNELS
Who do you look up to in the bully game, and
why?
I have a lot of respect for breeders out there, but I
can’t really say I look up to many of them, because
i’ve been around longer than most. I’ve been doing
this for the past 30 years, so I try to set my own
goals.
Tell us about one of your most memorable moment in 2015.
My most memorable moment of 2015 would have
to be one afternoon when I was at the park, and a
family with a disabled child came up to the dogs,
and you could almost instantly see the way the dogs
brighten her day, and filled her heart with happiness.
Describe how you would want things in the bully
community to be in 10 years from now.
10 years from now I would love to see more families
coming around. Also I would like to see all the states
and countries that have banned these dogs, to lift
the bans, and allow people to have these dogs. They
are truly an amazing breed.
What separates your kennel from the competition?
What separates me from most kennels, is the temperament, and quality that my dogs possess.
The motto I live by is be humble, be faithful, and be
honest.
I am very pleased with this magazine, and I’m happy
to see how far they’ve come. I appreciate all the
things they do for this great breed, and I can’t thank
them enough for this great opportunity.

INDUSTRY BULLYS
I live by a lot of mottos, but the one that I love the most
is “The only person that can beat you is you”.
When was your first role as an actress?
My first role was a principal role playing myself on
Sesame Street, in a scene with the amazing Abby
Caddy, saying the Alphabet and improving with the
character at age 4. By the way, we had the same hair
back then , how cool! I had so much fun because
I wanted to be on that show each time I watched,
and I was fortunate enough to do so. Still grateful!
What was the biggest role as a young actress?
My biggest role as a young actress at this time... I
would have to say each and every role I was ever
cast for, because each character had a special place
in my life. At that moment for me nothing else
mattered, but what I was doing! I am having a blast
playing this role. It’s my role. I focus on the now. I
love bringing actual life to words from a piece of
paper! Each role creates and continues to mold
the actress that I am today. Every role teachs me
something new. It’s like a Rubix cube. Solve it, and
it’s a great feeling!
What inspired you to begin your career as an
actress?
For as long as I can remember, I asked my mom
about being on TV. Lol, it might have been my first
words, but according to my mom, I first asked at 1
years old and stayed on that path until age 3. One
New Year’s Eve, I asked my mom “How come you
don’t want me to be on TV? “ You said I could be and
do anything.” My mom started to cry, and said you
know what Donshea, it’s not that I don’t want you
to be on TV. I don’t know what to do, but you know
what I will down size my business, and this year is
yours! I will find out what to do, and let’s do it! I had
to wait until I turned 4 years old. My birthday is in
March. I did it in less than a year, and here we are!
What kind of roles do you prefer?
I prefer roles that have dialogue, emotion combined
with improv, because now thats a challenge to balance all things. You have to think on your feet. Now
that’s fun! I actually get to act and use my brain, but
the most interesting role for me is to act and sing
on television! What a dream to do two of the things
I really love doing more then anything in the world,
and on camera! I’m passionate about my job. I’m
blessed to be able share my love for the arts with
the world. Any role that I’m allowed to have multiple
levels of acting and combinations, meaning singing,
rapping, playing instruments, or even playing
sports, i’m interested! I am so passionate about life.
My mom constantly tells me to embrace and enjoy
44
life because it’s your life, and you only get one. I
have no regrets, just lessons learned.

DONSHEA HOPKINS

*Starred in 50 Cent’s TV Series POWER
as Ghost’s daughter, Raina St. Patrick
@donshea_hopkins
What was your toughest role as a young actress?
To be honest, I haven’t had one yet. They’re all a
challenge, but not tough.
Who are some of your favorite actors or actresses?
I admire and respect so many it’s really not fair to
choose. The greats before me, and the greats now.
I have worked in the past with, and am currently
working with some outstanding actresses and
actors, who I truly adore for real! Outside of that Zendaya is killing the acting scene on multiple levels,
She acts, sings, and dances. Shailene Woodly is on
fire right now. She is doing what all young actresses
want to do, having multiple faucets of things moving, or in circulation at the same time. Work!
What have you learned from the directors that
you have worked with throughout your career?
I learned to just be myself, be spontaneous, listen
and have respect. At the end of the day, they call the
shots, no matter how big you are.
Do you have any upcoming acting projects that
our readers should look out for?
Yes. I’m doing a play to raise awareness on FGM/C
and Child Marriage in developing countries. It’s still
confidential and in the beginning stages, but as
soon as I get clearance, I’ll tell you guys all about it!
Of course you guys know, I’m still playing Raina St.
Patrick on POWER, (which I absolutely love doing)
and working on my album.
The word on the street is that you also do music.
Tell our readers about your music venture and
how that is working out for you.
I’m working on my album 3Point2, and it’s mostly a
pop album, but I have music of almost every genre
on there. I have pop, indie, R&B, and I even have
some rap songs. So I think that my album would be
really interesting and inspiring, especially to young
girls. Heres a fun fact! I wrote and co-wrote everything on my album!
Have you always been into music, or is this something new for you?
I’ve always had a love for music since I was young.
Maybe 3 or 4 years old. Whenever I was playing with
my toys, reading, or watching tv, I would always
sing! Anything from nursery rhymes, to songs on
45
the radio. But I didn’t really get into music until I
was six, when I got my first real guitar! Then I started taking voice, guitar, and piano lessons. Even
in my free time I would sit down with my guitar
and start writing songs. Yes at six years old, I was
writing songs! That’s basically how my music career
started.
Who are some of your favorite artists in the
music industry?
I love and respect all musicians, because I know
how tough it is being one. But my all time favs
would have to be, Beyoncé, Adele, Ariana Grande,
Demi Lovato, Justin Bieber, 1D, Chris Brown, and
the list goes on! But they all have amazing vocal
ranges, and they’re not afraid to take risk.
If you could work with anyone on your next
song, who would it be?
It would definitely be Ariana Grande! She’s so
inspiring, and just an all around wonderful person
with a great spirit! Her voice is amazing. It would
just be an honor to even stand next to her! But I’d
love to do a collaboration with any artist!

How hard is it to balance schoolwork, with your
busy career as an actress and songwriter?
It isn’t that hard for me since I’m homeschooled.
My mom’s my teacher so she keeps me in check,
and makes sure I don’t get too stressed out or slack
off. I just try to separate work from school. When
I need to focus on my career for a big role, or I’m
working on a song, my mom lets me focus on that
by incorporating it into my schoolwork. At the end
of the day, she makes it easy to relax and be a kid.
I live by a lot of mottos, but the one that I love the
most is “The only person that can beat you is you”.
Most of all, “always remain humble”.
Any last shoutouts?
I had so much fun answering these questions and
talking with you guys! But I’d just like to give at
huge shoutout to all of my Team Donshea members, and to everyone who’s helped me in my career! Most of all I’d like to thank Real Estate Smoke
Mel Muzik, and my mom of course! They’ve been
helping from the start of my music career, and
deserve a lot of credit! Of course I’d like to thank
my agents and managers who’ve always believed
in me, and continue to help me throughout my
amazing career! I love you all.
