Small dogs

[Jadapit]

When I'm out and about with Ebony I get a lot of "dirty" looks from people. A lot of people will cross the street when they see us coming. One day we were walking by the high school, a group of kids were coming toward us one kid yelled "those are pit bulls" they all ran to the other side of the street. Then the kid yells "nice dogs".

It makes me both sad and angry that so many people are scared of Ebony and Jada. Those two really do love people.

People are notoriously stupid (especially in child form) - you know your dogs are gorgeous and loving and that's all that matters! If it makes any difference I would stop to give them a hug if I passed them in the street

Thank you so much! They would love it if you could give them a hug.

I wouldn't have crossed the street, but I would have just said hi as I continued to walk by. Not out of fear, but out of respect for you and your dogs, I simply wouldn't want to interrupt your walk. Unfortunately I'm sure a lot of people are fearful of your dogs, but I hope you don't feel everyone who doesn't stop to pet your dogs is afraid of them.

So do I, I hope to have a pit bull someday. I know several and love all of them. I would hate to think that someone thought I was afraid of them though, just because I didn't go up to them and pet them.
(I know that's not what you were implying, I was just adding a different point of view to what you said.)

I think it's it very stupid of people to be afraid of pitties from the media. People always say "You can't belive the media" but yet they believe them about dogs.
Jada and Ebony are GORGOUS and very cute!! I wish I could just cuddle with them... such big cuties. I feel so sad for pitties and there good owners like you sometimes, Jadapit. People like that are so dumb and cruel.... sometimes you just wanna go and slap them.

It depends. Seriously, some people just say really rude things about Sassy. Like "look a poodle!" "IT doesn't even have teeth." "Why are you walking a dog that big?". Its very annoying. I can't stand it. Some people think she is a puppy and are like "LOOK AT THE PUPPY! LETS PET HER". Others are like "Aw! She is so adorable" and they pet her very gently. She loves the attention. When, I have her coat on people stare at us. They think I put it on to make her look "cute". Well, I put it on for warmth for the most part. One kid at school is like "Im gonna hold her at gunpoint." I was like "Um, try to touch her and she'll kill you first." In the house she is very aggressive and protective. She has to be locked in a cage! Some people can't even believe that. Mostly, she gets nice comments though.

Jadapit, I can't believe someone would do that. Media ruins everything.
