I understand that- I am just saying to someone that wanted to know facts, when the first few pages were the positive- there is a negative to any breed, and this one is hard to insure. Its not about money= its about your right to have your life- you need on guard with one alllllllllllllllllll the time.. This does bite " like a stinking poodle" ( as someone said) - this breed will maim..Quote:

This is not a typcial snappy breed- it can be a killer and strong enough in jaw pressure to do it..
My point is- you need to hear both sides of the story before doing this.... Take it for what it is worth, but when even the miliatary and top police departments in the nation wont use the breed, that tells me an awful lot! Seriously - it does- and I posted as to why....
:rolleyes:
YOU are entitled to your own opinion and so am I. I like Pit Bulls. I even like STINKING poodles (including the one that bit me).Quote:

If you like them then why are you being so negative about them?! :confused:
so would I. give them a big hug for me, too, Donna. :) I do, too caseysmom. I just hate when people bash a breed that we come to know and love. and some people are so blind to see how truly great pit bulls are. :(Quote:

Oy vay....should I just start another thread? Call it an anti-poodle one? If you read my first thread, I called the poodle who bit me, a STINKING poodle. And yes, this poodle stunk...for biting me. My second thread was a JOKE on my first one...using the wood STINKING. Got it? Good. Let's stay on the subject at hand - pit bulls.
Still love Pit Bulls .....and I still love (non-stinking) poodles too.
How do you think I feel? I visit my friend every tuesday IN JAIL..... She is on suicide watch btw.. I am nottttttttt kidding... One afternoon changed her life totally... This is awful. Someone needs to tell the bad side of this- maybe if nothing else for someone to do something. ... And the gentlemen that was killed in his own house when he tried to feed his dogs.. Can you imagine? This wasnt a trailer park type of dog- this was a member of the communittee chewed to shreds... by his own dogs...Quote:

do what you want... its very worrisome to me... Too much has happened in this little one area in a matter of a year.. Its terrifying. ...
Hi. I don't normally come over to the dog side too much; right now I am owned by 7 cats and that keeps me busy. I have owned dogs, in the past, just not currently. I owned dogs in the 50 to 60 pounds range.
I was a bit surprised to see so many of you refering to pitbulls as a breed? I thought it is / was a use or purpose, like sight hounds, scent hounds, shepherds and so forth. I thought 'pitbull' could refer to any number of breeds or mixes of those breeds. Including, but not limited, to boxer, bulldogs, mastiffs (American and English, bull mastiff) and so on. If the dog came from a line which, at one time, had been bred to fight in the pits, then it could inherit those tendencies. Over time, those become more diluted from responsible breeders who are following AKC guidelines, and getting the breed back to a friendly - or friendlier - personality. So if you get a breed of dog that was once used in that line (legal or illegal, that is not my point here), and if the breeder has history on file, you have a better idea of the chances of that particular dog having those tendencies, right?
At least, that is what I thought. I don't think the AKC recognizes a breed as "pitbull," but I am not sure. Of course, there are plenty of rare breeds not recognized by AKC. But I am not sure pitbull is one of those, either.
I have known rotties that were big mushy droolers all their lives, and I have known a rottie that I wouldn't turn my back on. Part of it is the way the owner trains the dog, some of it is in the genes.
Well, as I said at the start, I don't have a lot of dog knowledge. Maybe someone here has more and /or different ideas.
