To buy an animal to with the goal to keep it under a given size is simply wrong. BCC have not been kept successfully in captivity for a long time, only a handful of people have had great success with them. I can't think of a healhty adult BCC that was cbb over 8 years old that is not 8ft plus. BCC grow very slow, they just need time and a little bit of food to get large. With more people successfully keeping them, we should see the average size go up with time. Some bloodlines stay smaller, I will give you that. Just don't starve an animal for your selfish reasons to hinder its size.
