pitbulls

I just got a male rednose pup. anyone here a pitbull owner?

 

I've got a lab/pit mix.

 

no but i love them , they are such cool dogs

 

I own a pit bull mix, an american bulldog, an australian shepherd, and a Corgi Mix.

 

Pit bulls are being banned in various jurisdictions throughout the country :cheers2:

I wonder why





Hotwater

 

Because people are retarded and don't realize its the way that owners train these dogs, and not the dogs natural personality. It's also because humans don't learn how to co exist with our problems, we just get rid of them.

 

Okay, so, this post?

Everything i said turned out to be BOGUS )

Ummm...

Nevermind.

 

Then they need trained people, who know what they are doing, to train them and they need to live in an appropriate environment. If you can't handle the dog, you shouldn't be allowed to have it.

 

this puppy is already plotting your death HW.. :hat: yeah its the cute ones that are allways the killers..

 

There's a guy in my neighborhood who has a pitbull. Supposedly it's attacked several people in my neighborhood and it's caused a major uproar, people are irrate, want him to put the dog down.

When I'm out for my daily walk, if any of the neighbors have seen him they come out to warn me. I guess the guy just can't control his dog once he gets started. Actually, I'm more afraid of the guy walking him than the dog. That man just looks like he's no good. I get bad vibes about him. Anyway, when I see them, I just cross the street to the other side to avoid any contact.

 

pit bulls are bread to kill plain and simple. you cant train that out of them i dont care what anyone says.

my uncle raised them as a child, a very close friend of ours raised them and is a owner of one still.

sure you can train them to obey you, they will even be loving and protecting companions to children and other animals they were raised around..

however left to their own decision making in a environment they are not familiar with (strange dogs,strange animals,strange children etc.) they are bad news.they will kill no matter how well you have trained them.

as with any rule there are exceptions,if your dog is not going to be at your side 24/7,you better pray it is the exception.

 

btw, i hope you didnt pay a whole lot for that pup because its not a champion bloodline. that snout is way to long for a quality bloodline.

going to a friends house this mornin and ill see if i can get a pic of a show quality rednose..

 

He's a cutie What's his name?

I have a Staffordshire bull terrier cross, sweetest dog ever.

 

bullshit i raised pitbuls for years b4 the SCARE--and young mothers would ask if it was ok if my dog played with there kids--its how you raise the dog--none of my pits were violent---if you fight em different story---my pits loved kids and defended hichhikers---nuff said---german shepards cause damage too--quit hating

 

My all white Samoyed hated people.. if he had the chance he'd bite many .. Mean he was,, excellent guard dog was he.. ..

 

Awww!! That's so cute.

We have little pomeranians.

Edit:

 

Oh, you Baster!!!

You quoted it before i could cover my ass...

Oh, well.

:rofl:

Guess i should have done the research FIRST, instead of relying on my faulty memory. Live and learn!

 

Classic HFers, jump on anything that could possibly be dramatized and take it to the extreme. There is absolutely nothing wrong with Pitbulls themselves, any more than any other animal. Pitbulls that attack people are trained to do so, or triggered in some way, just like any animal can and will be. Before you go blaming the dog breed, look at the people who usually buy Pitbulls.

Btw, I don't own a Pitbull personally, but the neighbor down the road has a blue-eyed. She's gorgeous. Absolutely stunning.
That's a pretty cute pup you've got there yourself.

 

And this IS for real, folks:

The American Pit Bull Terrier was considered America's dog like 40 years ago ~ it was gorgeous, friendly, protective:

Granted, wiki isn't the end-all/be-all authority on pretty much anything,

but this article is a well written piece that combines all the stuff i saw on other sites.
