The Pit Bull Scenario

[Vela]

Ditto, with Dr. Goodnow......I thought we'd already done this one
to death?

Well nobody made you read it, if you don't like it don't read it, problem solved. Dr. Goodnow wasn't putting pits down, she talked about her daughter's pittie and hoping the dog in the story wasn't hurt. Why do you need to be negative?

no kidding. no need to bring down a good thread! I love pit bulls and always will and will have one someday.

ETA : love that collie, we already know how you feel about pit bulls from the other thread so why argue it some more?!

Love that Collie, I hope you read my post in it's entirety. If my daughters dog was pomeranian and behaved the same way with the same look im it's eye I wouldn't trust it either! It is EMPHATICALLY not the breed that causes my mistrust it is the animal. Heck I have met people I trust less than my kids dog. I still assert that the damage inflicted by a Pit (insert ANY large breed here) is decimating and profound,compared to a smaller dog. I will however state once again that in and whole, Pits from responsible breeders, sold to responsible owners, and raised with the minimums required for attention ,food, shelter and bonding time, are solid stable trustworthy animals. This doesn't deter from the facts as stated in an earlier thread that by their sheer popularity the breed is being destroyed by the very things that are charged with bettering and protecting it. PEOPLE.

Love that Collie, a Pomeranian could do more damage than most Pits I've seen..

Very well said Vela!

Its obvious to me Love My Collie that you don’t like or trust pit bulls, that’s fine but you should really try keeping your negative comments about them to yourself. This is supposed to be a pet board where every dog is special , yes, even pit bulls. Its really no fun at all to have the breed you love put down by someone.

I agree.

[Love That Collie]

Yep, you ARE correct, no one made me read it now did they.
I did that of my own free will.
Nor did anyone make you read the previous "thread" and responses on this subject also, that was "closed". And I too can point out if you don't like my
thoughts, simple, don't read it as one put it and don't respond to it.

Try as any of this breed's enthusiasts may, the rep is stuck to this breed
for now and a long time whether you like it or not. You can sit and type
till you're blue in the face and it won't do anything to help the breed.

And for another thing I don't have to keep my "negative" comments to myself.
That's what boards such as this is thrown up on the Internet is for....opinions. It isn't only for the positive, it's for discussion and/or debate and the last time I checked, I still live in a free country and am free to express. And the last time I checked I haven't called anyone on here names so I'm not violating anyone here. If you can't take a spirited debate or discussion maybe you shouldn't be here.

LOL........yeah, those Pomeranians certainly could take man down and kill him and do more damage now couldn't they.......ludicrous statement...LOL

And I am not putting the breed down......facts are facts, but hey, watch out for those Poms now! And too, the last I checked this thread may be about Pit Bulls but this board is not and I do have the right to post my thoughts on here whatever they might be on the subject. Or maybe I'm wrong???? Let me see, are you saying that unless I agree with everyone here I can't express MY opinion unless it agrees with yours? I really don't think that's what you mean. Or at least I hope that's not what you mean.
