i am happy people are fighting back. I really cant stand it when people say pit bulls are mean,people think that just because of the name they are bad. my brother has a terrier mix, he is a small dog but if he doesnt know you he WILL bite you. he is very mean if he doesnt like you. my mom has the same kind of dog. I mean you dont hear about these kinds of dogs only the big ones. another thing is my uncle had a chow chow and my sister lived there and she was playing with him on night, well she got tired and layed on the floor to watch tv and a little while later the dog was sitting there and started growling at her and she went to get up and he bit her 3 times in the face... she had to get over 100 stitches in her faceand she almost lost and eye. I still like those dogs and every other kind of dog... It is all in the way you raise them and socalize them I believe that 100 percent!!!!!! my dogs wouldnt hurt me or anyone else i know. not if they were being teased then i dont know what they would do.but if some one was dumb enought to tease a dog they dont know well maybe they deserve to be bit. or animal abusers(sp)deserve to be bit also.i just want people to realize ANY dog can turn and bit you if provocted. I had to let off some steam. If this dosent make any since im sorry. Ok talk to everyone later .
