Pit Boss

[Indigo Bully Connection]

OK, I just don't get it

I didn't think this show was trying to do anything against the breed/jail/prison/parolees/Michael Vick/unaltered dogs or whatever. I personally didn't think the show was negative about anything. It's like every other reality show, maybe it is scripted...most of them are. So what.

I just brought it up because I thought his dogs were cute, he seems to really care about dogs and I liked the fact that he took them to the nursing home to show people that big dogs are not scary.

Why must you always make it into something negative when it comes to anything to do with any kind of pitbulls/bullies/crossbreeds?

I didn't mean to sound confrontational. I was just putting my two cents in. I haven't been argumentative anywhere else within your forum. I will back away from this thread then.

Psht, I just wish they had more agility shows on Animal Planet. My favorite.

cuz so many people buy into the myth put out by the media?

I understand that. I just didn't really see that they were looking at them in a bad light.

No, you don't need to do that. I just honestly don't understand what they were doing that made things look so bad.
I love rotties and they have a bad rep too, but if it were them in the show I wouldn't have thought they were doing anything to make them look bad. In fact I thought they were trying to show a good side.

My two cents is that the guy is not a rescue, he's a vigilante. Think Robin Hood. I don't get the impression that he knows anything about liability. Regardless of breed (they could be labs or corgis for all I care) he's taking dogs under his wing that may have been treated badly or purposely made aggressive. I'd like to see a more formal situation rather than a joke of a show with a former criminal running a talent agency and stealing dogs from bad people on the side.

Its the same way I feel about the show with the biker vigilantes saving dogs.
