Rebel Was A Proud Ambassador For The American Pit Bull Terrier!
What an awesome dog !
SINCE 1999 WE ARE
NO LONGER AFFILIATED WITH AAPBA!
Our personal opinion is the Registry as a whole is Unethical, Owners included.
We did not like what we witnessed!
Rebel's Accomplishments

The AAPBA gives a title to the dog that Champions or Titles in every event...they call it the "Spartan Award"
REBEL BECAME THE AAPBA'S FIRST SPARTAN!



AAPBA NO LONGER REQUIRES AN OBEDIENCE TITLE, IN ORDER TO SPARTAN. THUS MAKING REBEL JO THE ONLY DOG TO HAVE TO OBTAIN MORE TITLES TO SPARTAN
REBEL IS JUST THAT DAM GOOD!

WARNING,
Rebel had
very few pups on the ground if you have purchased a pup from someone other then us, claming it is out of Rebel Jo, you may want to check with us personally.
You may have falsified paper work from the AAPBA!
We will not sell a dog or pup with AAPBA paperwork!

It's really not about how many pups your top dog can produce.
It is what you do with the ones you have produced.

ADBA

Rebel was a Weight pull ACE in ADBA
Rebel's first show was in WA, at an event sponsored by the Evergreen State APBT Club on August 1st & 2nd, 1998. Rebel took Most Weight Pulled both days!
His second show was in Oregon, at an event hosted by the Beaver State Pit Bull Club on September 26th & 27th, 1998. Rebel took Most Weight Pulled on the 26th, and his class on the 27th.

Our corner stone foundation
Rebel Jo was a mamma's boy, this boy was everything and more then we could ever ask for in an APBT! He was our work horse.
This dog had a great temperament, and a lot of drive. What can we say about this boy that will make you understand what he meant to us?
All we can do is give you a small glimpse with photos of what
This wonderful dog has done for us.
We the Victorino's would like to take the time to thank the breeders of Victorino's Image of Rebel Jo,
Stephanie Saridokis.
It took us a long time to find dogs with the same caliber, of our old APBT's that had passed away,
This Rebel and his litter mate sister Ipo Lani have been really close to what we had before.
Rebel served us well in his life time and he was worth more then his weight in gold.
When a stand-stay means more then just a qualifying score!
TRUST & LOYALTY
THIS IS WHAT REBEL JO MEANT TO US
We shouldn't have to say more, but for those that believe that all APBT's only destroy life.
Your wrong! there are 100's of owners out there that have pit bulls as pets, and will never have a bad dog. There are some that don't even know their loving family dog is pit bull.
Not all pit bulls are bad and it is very ignorant for people to believe as such.
The color of your skin doesn't make you a bad person, just as a breed of canine dose not make them bad.
Our grandson means the world to us, he is our future! Tyler, is my daughters only son our pride and joy. Rebels Jo was an outstanding APBT and had given us well over 10 years of loyalty.
Rebel, was still just a dog, the dog never is above anyone in our home.
Tyler is the master and every dog listens to him or there is hell to pay.
This was a natural pose for Tyler & Rebel
Rebel Jo and our grandson Tyler James
This is truly what it is all about!
The American Pit Bull Terrier is a breed of dog you should be able to trust with the ones you love the most. But no one should leave children and dogs unintended at any time. Tyler James works along side of us daily with the APBT's here. Just like his mother Edith and Uncle John, Tyler James will be raised around APBT's. and love it. No matter how big the generation gap between grandparents , parents, and child may get, the APBT breed seems to bring us together!
With Loyalty and Courage the APBT is truly a cut above the rest.

How would we start to describe to someone what Rebel meant to us and our family?
Even showing his old age Rebel still takes the BLUE with good competition.

THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
OF AN EXTREMELY DISTINGUISHED DOG

I, Grand Champion Victorino's Image of Rebel Jo, familiarly known as Rebel Jo; because of the burden of age, I realize that the end of my life is near…and so I hereby bury my Last Will & Testament in the heart of my Friend. She will not know it is there until some time after I have changed worlds. Then, remembering me in her sadness, she will know.

I have little in the way of material things to leave. Dogs are much wiser than men. We do not set great value on things. I have only my love, loyalty and courage to bequeath.

I ask her to remember me always as a loving loyal friend but not grieve too long. In my life, I've tried to be a comfort to her in time of sorrow & a reason for added joy in her life's happiness. It is painful for me to think that in death I should cause her pain. Let her remember that while no dog ever had a happier life, I have grown old and in pain. I have a great sense of pride & dignity & would not want to sink to bewildered humiliation. It is time for me to say, “Good-by”.
It will be a great sadness to leave her but not a sorrow to die.

What will become of me as I change worlds? Who knows? I like to believe I will be in a place where I will romp in fields with those who have gone before me &, some day, be joined by friends I've known in life. Where every hour is mealtime and there are fireplaces with logs burning where I spend long evenings with the memory of her touch.
This is much to expect but peace is certain.

One last request I make: I ask her to have another. It would be a poor tribute to me not to have a dog. I've never had a narrow spirit & have always held that all dogs are good… and more than just a few cats, too! I would suggest another American Pit Bull but others could be suitable, as well. To him I bequeathed my collar & lead I leave him my place in the car, which I loved so much, and wish for him long rides with open windows.

One last word of farewell, my Dear Friend…Whenever you think of me, say to yourself with sadness but also with happiness in your heart at the remembrance of my happy life with you; “He is the one who loved me and whom I loved”. No matter how deep my sleep, I shall hear you and our bond will remain forever unbroken.

The future of the American Pit Bull Terrier starts with Quality Breeders!
Now unfortunately, anyone that breeds a litter accidentally or intentionally are classified as a breeder.
A quality breeder that truly loves the APBT will not breed quantity. Breeders with champions of champion and top of the top are not necessarily doing good for the breed if they breed quantity ether. All shelters are full of pure bred APBT's with out homes, just how do they get there? The Breeders! Breeders place the pups in the hands of owners!
It starts with the breeder!
I'm proud to know that Victorino's Image of Rebel Jo Produced outstanding dogs 27 to be exact

On February 1st, 2007 Victorino's Image of Rebel Jo, passed away.
His Family loyalty for over 10 years 8months was unsurpassed!

Dear Guardian Angel of dogs
Here, come sit beside us for awhile,
and let me tell you about this dear old friend of mine.
He might look tattered or maybe old
But I won't say goodbye until you've been told.
He had the brightest eyes I had ever seen,
And wore a beautiful fur coat that would out shine a King.
He was never prissy but walked with an aire ......
And oh so polite, you could take him most anywhere.
He could run like the wind and could catch anything he chased
But he protected and sat with me when I had problems to face.
You could not find a friend nearly so dear.
Because no matter the trouble he always stayed near...
He has never asked for much from me;
Just to love and respect him, and I think you'll agree,
To give him a good meal plus a nice warm bed is not much to ask;
When he has given me all his love and to him this was no task.
Now I understand you have a schedule to keep.
But I have a small favor before he nods off to sleep.
Please fold your wings around him and let him feel young
while in no pain;
Dear Guardian Angel of Pets, please keep Rebel Jo safe and happy
until I see him again.

We love you Rebel Jo, Rest in peace old man,

Rebel never had to prove he was the Alpha dog ! Others just knew never to test him.
REBEL JO IS THE TOP DOG!
