A think a lot of problem here is people seem to have different and varying ideas of what "vicious" means in their mind. The OP seemed to think it was as simple as barking at strangers whereas other people seem to think of it as a raging dog that will attack to kill without provocation.
Ugh. I don't want to play this game. Forget I ever said anything. You are 110% correct in your line of thinking. I was wrong for ever questioning your logic at all. There are no other options than euthanasia, silly me for ever thinking that there might possibly be.Quote:

I know I'm a little late at posting about this, but RipplingWaves, if your still here please read this.
It's not good at all to feed your dogs pizza, noodles, and chicken. It can shorten their life span and hurt their health. This stuff to a dog is like smoking to us. It hurts them. Also, why would you want to train your dogs to be 'viscous.' If you play with them and care for them, they will protect you. You don't have to train them to be a guard dog. If your dogs do attack someone, they could get put down and we all know that you don't want that. So please, get your dogs a trainer and work with them for good behavior. And no table food for them either!
I agree & disagree at the same time.Quote:

Is Pasta harmful in treat form? <-I really don't know this answer
Chicken? Why is chicken bad for dogs?
Is it just chicken or all fowl your talking about? why?:confused:
She's probly feeding already cooked chicken, which isn't really good for them.Quote:

Any human food like that isn't good for dogs..
Pizza and noodles as a steady diet doesn't sound too healthy, and it all depends how the chicken is cooked I would imagine. Fried chicken - no, but nothing wrong with roasted, baked, or boiled chicken.
When we have pizza, my guys get a treat of pizza crust which they love - but only a few small pieces each. When I have plain leftover noodles or pasta, I will chop some up in with their regular food, but again, not a steady diet of it. They also sometimes get leftover veggies (not all kinds), and leftover meats mixed with their regular food, since it's rather senseless to throw it out.
RW55 also said in a previous thread that she didn't walk her dogs in the neighborhood because they are vicious. Looks like they spend their lives in a pen. How sad!:(
My 2 little dogs are the best watch dogs I could want. No one gets around the house without them letting me know about it - they are both just natural little barkers - and far from vicious!
I'm going to guess and say that what she means is the OP is probably giving the dogs table scraps. Which would be seasoned with all kinds of things for human taste. Regular chicken, or raw isn't bad. At least I think.Quote:

The only human food they ever get is carrots and cheese if they need meds. I got into a huge fight with a friend of Bruce's because he was giving my dogs (and one of my guests dogs) meat as he was cooking it. :mad:
Others already said the same thing I did (it took me too long to post this). But I also have a "guard" dog, not by choice. Zoee barks at anything that moves in our court. LOL But she's not "vicious". You might think she is at first with how she acts though. :o
Well, all I can hope from this entire thread is that something gets through to the OP. This is the best place to learn things like this. I have learned so much on this forum....that's why I love it here. :)
What a weird thread.
When my dogs are sick they get plain boiled checken and rice absolutely no oil, butter or seasonings.
I think this thread should die a natural death. Needless to say there are irresponsible pet owners of all types. Unfortunately I have seen more that my share. If nothing else the thread demonstrated that without proper training and care our pets are at risk and so are many innocent people that they come in contact with. My vote is for nice dogs.:D
RW55 clarified his/her statement and yet nobody seemed to notice:
The're just guard dogs, they aren't fully vicious. They never bit someone, they just bark. We don't let them bite people.. they just bark.... they just bark, does no one get this? By vicious, I didn't mean they tear people's head's off.
please keep in mind that some people have a legitimate need for guard dogs. If you live in a high crime or extremely rural area, having 4-legged alarms may save your life or property.
I would never condemn anyone as being a bad owner as long as the dogs are happy and healthy. I doubt seriously RW fed their dogs noodles, etc for every meal. I told everyone my cat Montego loved pizza, because he did. Did that mean he got a full slice of Meat Lovers every day? No. It means that on the extremely rare occasion that I got pizza, he got a bite of crust.
We all have guard dogs then. Nuf said(.):mad:

I /still/ dont see the need for guard dogs. Cameras and a gun work well enough.
