http://theabkcdogs.org/ UKC actually just accepted the American Bully as it's own Breed Standard the end of last year, so technically, they are no longer Pit Bulls, which is what they would be registered as for the last 30 years. http://www.ukcdogs.com/Web.nsf/Breed.../AmericanBully Mine is Rocuby, on the left... http://a2.l3-images.myspacecdn.com/i...dccc0386/l.jpg |

I'm a huge dog lover but people who deny there is a problem with 'pitbulls' are disingenuous at best. There are many who have been bred to fight, of course not a high percentage of all pitbulls, are dangerous. Just like guns, in the hands of responsible intelligent people, pitbulls are fine. But we all know how many white and black scumbags have pitbulls.
A solution could be to regulate the breeding, sales and ownership of pitbulls. I think that's silly. Let the breed die out, don't take them away from current owners of course. People who love dogs, don't need a pitbull, there are hundreds of breeds big and small to choose from. If you're going to cry about the disappearance of a dog breed you're looney tunes. Not to sound too much like the Squealer but dogs have no clue what breed they are, they don't even know what they look like, dogs look in the mirror and they don't recognize that dog in the mirror is themselves. You aren't letting your dog down by letting his breed disappear, he could not give a shit about what breed he is. He does not care about his legacy, all he wants is friendship, some play/exercise, food and water. |
So you regulate pitbull breeding and eventually breed disappears. You think that another breed won't go same route as pitbull? Idiots will adapt to regulations and breed another types for same purpose.
More would be accomplished if state body checks, investigates and if needed fines / charges people reponsible in case there is animal abuse going on. |

funny you should mention poodles they are #1 on the list for biting humans...small neurotic dogs like to bite more than big stable ones...pit bulls were actually place 30 something... now as far as fatal attacks go they are high on the list... Quote:
the owner IS responsible for EVERYTHING dangerous that he does...it is up to the owner to make sure nothing happens...its like saying "its not my fault the car hit the pedestrians while i was speeding"... its like this: dog shits on the side walk = its the owners fault for not picking it up its ALWAYS the owners fault plain and simple... |
Attention all you pit bull defenders:
Please help.... https://www.facebook.com/victoriasvictories Thanks, Mitch |
I have owned pit bulls in the past. The pit bull was created by mixing various bull breeds with the terrier breed. It made a very tenacious mix. My last pit was like lassie. She was amazing. I was over the animal aggression tho. I now own an English bulldog. He is like a German Shepard shoved into the body of a beagle. This dog I have also had bite both of my children. The 1st bite I consider mutual combat and the other was because my oldest son screamed and he startled the dog. I never had my pit bite a person and my English bullie doesn't have animal aggression. I now keep the dog in a locked kennel unless I am supervising everyone together and have gone 2yrs without anymore issues.

Love that pic! Looks more like a mastiff than a pit bull though. |
I love mine. My Best friend is a dog trainer so she has manners. I don't allow her around kids and we go to group where all the dog's my bf have trained come together in a huge park.

My pitbull Nero only once snapped at a bicycle a kid was riding because she was deliberately skidding sideways at him, spooking him with the thing, and then another time at someone who was literally attacking a friend - yelling and shoving. But snapped, no biting or attacking. Quote:
Some stats show more pitbull mortalities from attacks, but less actual attacks from pitbulls. I tend to agree it's the owner. Recently a little girl was attacked by "A Dog" according to the headline - no breed specified. This was just after another little girl was attacked by "A PitBull". Pit Bulls make good headlines. Hundreds of attacks occur every day, but the pitbulls make the headlines. For some reason, when it's a Poodle or a German Shepherd, it either doesn't make headlines or the breed just isn't mentioned. :D |

What is funny about the Internet is that everybody is an expert and it's mostly based on their own (limited) personal experiences. If only there were experts, who looked at all of the data and analyzed it without emotion and initial bias. Oh wait, there are. Namely the American Veterinary Medical Association and the American Humane Association. Don't be fooled in to thinking only American experts think this way. It's pretty much the universal opinion of professionals in most countries.

Watched a poor lady and her dog get attacked by a pit bill today in the lobby at the condo tower here today. Really sad.

I came at the ending
Others saw and 3 other guys were living and hitting the dog together to stop. The owner was powerless. These dogs need to be banned. |
So, is it the media having some twisted bias agenda thus they selectively cherry pick and sensationalize pit bull attacks because they're "big news"?
or.. are there so many more pit bull attacks reported in the news simply because there are more pit bull attacks than other types and breeds? Which is it? Because I have to say, a lot of people sure seem pretty sick to death of hearing of yet another pit bull attack in the news. Seems like every other week there's one in the news no matter where you're from. Nation-wide that's one hell of a lot of pit bull attacks. "It's not the dog, it's the owner" -- is that really going to be enough of an argument to keep these dogs from being banned? If it's indeed not the dog it's the owner then why are the dogs so often destroyed after and attack but the idiot irresponsible owner is let off with barely a fine? Could it be that at the end of the day it's both the owner and the type of dog? I'm asking here, don't shoot me. |

All dogs need to be treated and trained correctly, no matter what the size. Its only the pit bulls that get the attention because they are so strong and can do a lot of damage. Its the owners responsibility to know that they have a big, strong, dog that if left to its own regards will act out. What happens when you leave a kid without giving it the proper education, exercise and attention - it acts out. A dog will do the same. If a dog it not given the proper care, its going to act out. Its too bad that the laws do not do enough to keep dog owners to properly care for dogs -and this also includes animal abuse. |
