Also, if you don’t think your dog needs dog buddies and then blame their breed for your own dogs dog aggression, you really shouldn’t own ANY dog. number one reason why some dogs don’t like other dogs is a lack of socialization. You are moronic if you aren’t willing to take blame that you never socialized your dog, their fore your dog is...

I agree that Pit bulls shouldn’t be brought to the park,...

“Perhaps worse…are comments such as the following, so often used by politicians and delivered by Denver’s Director of Environmental Health:’ I’ll tell you the difference between Pit bulls and other breeds: They have lower levels of fighting inhibitions; they have a tendency to attack without…
Myth: Tough Dogs Need Tough Training →
theshoutsofmany:
“Sure, clicker training might work for a Poodle. But a Pit Bull needs to be shown who’s boss.”
We hear this all the time, and I want to put a rest to this myth once and for all. Many people believe that clicker training and other reward-based training methods won’t work for their breed. Whether it be a Pit Bull, Rottweiler, Doberman, Cane Corso, Malinois, Rhodesian ...

This was the "Joke" that came on the Fred Show...

”Does your [Pit Bull} bite?” “Only if you feed or touch it!”
Am I the only one disgusted by this? I left Fred a message on his FB page about my rescued Pit Bull, and how he would lick you rather then bite.
I’ve noticed comments like this in several shows. Sometimes they’re really subtle but they always upset me because the writers don’t understand what...

babygrotesque asked: Keira cont'd: Keira also kind of terrorizes our other dog, Alice (German Pointer Lab mix). Alice is kind of a weenie altogether, but Keira bullies her and it's so cute b/c Jedi will put herself between the other two dogs so Alice can run away. And funny enough, put them all outside where there is more room? BEST FRIENDS EVER. Dogs are funny creatures. We're still working on Keira...
babygrotesque asked: We got lucky when our roommate brought his GSD/Kelpie(?) mix into the house. We called Keira the "fun police" cos of her attitude and she seems to have personal space issues. She would snap at Jedi (my APBT) any time she got close, and tried really hard to be the alpha in the house. One day Jedi had enough and when Kiera snapped, Jedi grabbed her by her scruff and pinned her (and Kiera...
penelopepitbull asked: You would like the post I just posted. I have met many, many, dangerous German Shepherds, and honestly it isn't their fault. Just like the pit they are SUPER smart, loyal and need to have their energy used in a positive way, otherwise they get bored. People are sooo dumb! Maybe when I own a shelter I will have personality tests made up to see if people are smarter than their dogs. Haha
shannonnj asked: Sadly, the town wasn't at all PitBull friendly and gave us the option of paying their bill or having Sam quarantined. A few pit bulls have been quarantined in this area and - "mysteriously" - came back to owners injured or ill. I wasn't taking any chances.
shannonnj asked: Peachy was attacked by a shepherd, too! And when the owner refused to do anything, my Sam tried to intervene by pulling the dog off her. The shepherd's owner punched Sam in the face and kicked him with steel toed boots as i went after the guy. Sam was trying to protect peachy and myself. Worst part was he rushed his shepherd to the vet and made us pay the bill...even after the $1100 bill we...
penelopepitbull asked: In response to your pitty getting attacked: Penny was attacked by a husky/golden mix and he refused to let her go, then proceeded to try to mount her. When I told the owner to handle his dog properly (I couldn't do anything because Penny was in a corner, and wasn't reacting or defending herself, she was just sitting there shaking) he said and I quote: "He's just an unneutered...
drdatsyuk asked: Oh look, here I am again. Sorry haha. I wanted to know, do you know of any other dog-related blogs I could follow?

ameristinian asked: So, my Pitbull was viciously attacked today at the dog park by a West Highland Terrier. We were sitting there minding our business taking a break in the shade and this little Westie comes up and grabs him and attacks. They're both okay but isn't that ironic.

vegan-rage:
In Saginaw County, MI You can not adopt a Pit Bull. If one gets picked up by the pound it gets automatic euthanasia if not claimed by their owners. I think all types of dogs should get a fair chance to get adopted, and not just judged by their breed. Any dog can be a great dog if its raised right.

heytherefeliciaj:
People who wanna own a pitbull just because they’re “bad ass” or cute or whatever piss me off. You should get a dog because you connect with it and love it not because you wanna look cool. Of course there’s an asthetic value when you buy a dog, you have to think it’s cute. But these dogs already…
