Are your dogs vicious or nice?

[RipplingWaves55]

I am confused as to why you would want to advertise that your dogs are vicious. That is a reflection on you and how you raise them, I personally would not be proud to announce that, actually I would be quite embarassed and instead would be contacting someone for some help on correcting their behavior.

I would never accept that type of behavior from any of my dogs and if they showed signs of becoming that way I would be right along with Flatcoatluver and be working with and training my dogs.

I hope for your dogs sake they never get loose and hurt someone. Unfortunately because of your lack of responsibility someone could be seriously hurt or even killed and the dog would be PTS due to no fault of its own.

I don't agree with vicious dog behavior, it is completely unacceptable. Owners are to blame, a dog does what a dog is allowed to do. My best friends grandmother was mauled to death in her front yard because of an irresponsible pet owner. The owner served 2 years in jail(not long enough IMO) and all the dogs were PTS or shot by they police officers that were trying to get to her lying in her yard as they charged the officers when they tried to approach.

Rest in Peace Dorothy you are greatly missed by all of use who had the pleasure of knowing you.

They're guard dogs. WE trained them to be that way. WE like it. If a stranger comes to our house, they will bark and warn us. I want them to do that. We trained 'em that way and that's how it is.

R.I.P Dorothy, whoever that is.

I'm speechless. Almost ...

In an earlier comment, it was mentioned that a certain post was not a good way to educate someone. After reading the completely arrogant, ignorant post quoted above, does anyone honestly believe this person is seeking education or is in any way open to any education? I do not. And this is not the first instant of this same attitude by this OP.

RW, When your dogs attack someone, they will be euthanized. It matters not a bit if the person came onto your property with or without your permission, when you were or were not home. If you knowingly keep vicious dogs, they will be killed and you will be liable.

A dog does not generally have to be trained to bark when a stranger approaches. That is a dog's nature. Most dogs have to be trained not to do it. This behavior, I do not think, is all you are talking about at all. You are quite proud of your vicious dogs, that YOU trained, that YOU want to do that. When your dogs maul someone, and are euthanized, will YOU still be so proud of YOUR "training" then?

How terribly sad. Always the dogs that pay the price for the owner's issues.

You say you don't let your dogs bite people.
So in which way do you mean seeing as you aren't being clear with your post.
When they bark you hold them back from people or they are trained just to bark and that's it?
Barking isn't vicious, if it was we would all have viscious dogs.
Any good dog who loves their family will bark at unknown people, but they won't attack (unless they KNOW something is wrong).

I don't get how my posts before were bad anyways, I was being blunt in telling her what she is doing to the breed. And if that is being "mean" well maybe some people need to come out of their bubble and see the real world.

I'm pretty sure I have alot more hands on experience with dogs then most people on here.
I work with dogs, I work with rescues and trainers.
I have difficult breeds, and breeds that are "deemed dangerous".
I'm sorry that I know people like this are ruining the breed and need to be told before more breeds get attacked by bsl.

in fact that causes serious problems when people let there dogs roam

Not to mention that because her dogs arent fixed they would be getting pregnant too.

Oh and you said you have a cayote mix.. wouldn't be going around saying that either being as it's ILLEGAL unless you have a permitt which I doubt you do.

That was me and I take it back...it looks too late for education.

they're not suffering, they get pizza, noodles, chicken, and other treats, and they barely ever just get dog food. They get to run around, wrestle and play and they get pets and more treats. Whatever.

Wow this has to be a joke.

I don't think it is, sadly.

I remember other posts by this OP concerning unaltered dogs, accidental litters of puppies, feral cats, ignored advice about an overly dominant male dog, etc.

I think, sadly for these dogs, that this isn't a joke at all.
