Pit Bulls & Parents

[bckrazy]

That sucks =( Especially since Buddy is so clearly a Pittie mix! Do your parents know there is no such thing as a brindle ACD? And there are few dogs that do have strong brindle genes, besides bully breeds?

Luckily, neither of my parents discriminate against breeds. They have their favorites of course (my Mom's being poodles and my Dad's being Collies), but they've met way too many Pit Bulls in dog sports and my friends, all of them with great temperaments.

My mom is more like that then my dad. But they are both the same way... they always tell me not to believe everything I hear. They can be hypocrites.

I'm lucky, my first dog was a dane/ pit, and the only reason we gave him backe was he was rambuncious and large and already was mouthy and nocked my two year old sister over. My mom and step-dad don't really discriminate at all. My mom just had to have a "dangerous dogs" meeting with some local doctors and succided in persuading them all that it is NOT the breed, and that BSL does absolutley nothing. My dad's a little weary of them though. He thinks I'm weird to love them, when I see them I tell him I have the urge to hug their big faces and he's like "ok, whatever". With my mom and step-dad though, any friendly dog would be welcomed to visit any time. (just not stay for good because out house is a zoo, you know ) My mom calls Niño her "vicious little puppy" because she recons he's at least 1/2 pit bull. I think he's also ACD but she said his eyes are exactly the same as the Am Staffs we met at the IKC dog show.

My mom likes all dogs, BUT pitbulls. Everytime one comes onto the television she seems angry and always asks me what breed that is. It's rather annoying and I HATE IT! She gave in on one thing yesterday though. I showed her Jadapits girls and she actually said "AWWWWWWWWWW". I was stunned! She also said some owners are stupid on how they raise they're dogs and if I had a well behaved pit, she'd like it.

My dad is loves pitbulls. He wants one. I highly doubt that is going to happen anytime soon though...

My mom believes all of the hype that is shown on TV and that people say about pit bulls, so she doesn't like them.. She likes Morgan, despite what she says. She was even taking pictures of her the other day when she was outside taking pictures of my niece playing in the rain puddles.
Of course, who could resist a young pup?

My dad doesn't like most dogs, so therefore he doesn't like pit bulls.. He calls Morgan a "stupid pit bull" most of the time.

Of course, I don't techinically live with them, so they can't tell me what to do with my dogs. Even though we are staying with them at the moment, we will most likely be going home at the beginning of next week.

Sorry to go on again BUT I almost lost my left hand for the LOVE of a pitbull!!! You'd be surprised how many people think I'm a saviour until I tell them i saved a *gasp* pitbull, like I was really going to let it be torn to shreds like it has no living value?

It's all in the hands of the owner. i may get to see Boots this weekend and I pray every night he remains the same loving, sweet happy little dude.

How about "the" breed that attacked us? Same can be said for them. Good and bad in all breeds genetically, good and bad owners.
