Home-based in Oklahoma · family-owned
Built for the long run.
One of the most prominent names in the Brazilian Bull (Pit Monster) breed in the United States: a family-owned program for Brazilian Bulls and XL American Bullies, led by Jonathon Patton. Home-based in Oklahoma, with partner locations in Texas, Florida and other states. Temperament and health come first, and every pairing is planned for the dogs it leads to.
Where we work
Oklahoma roots. Dogs placed across the country and abroad.
Marathon Kennels is home-based in Oklahoma, with Brazilian Bull (Pit Monster) and XL American Bully partner locations in Texas, Florida and other states, and we are always growing. We import dogs from Brazil and other established programs abroad, and we export and transport internationally where the rules allow.

Our studs
Import & export
From Brazil to Oklahoma, and on to your door.
We bring in dogs from established programs abroad — Mavrok came to us from Brazil — and coordinate ground and air transport for families and breeders, in the US and internationally where the rules allow.
Our approach
“Temperament and health are the foundation of every breeding decision we make.”
From there we look at the whole dog — structure, pedigree compatibility and what a pairing can add to the next generation. Not trends, not coat colors.
