This is all so well put. |
Nah, then it’s the previous owner’s fault.
Thousands upon thousands of dollars people spend trying to fix the behaviors of these dogs not intended for companionship. They’re just such unfit dogs, and watching people throw themselves at them trying to fix them is just weird. Like the women who write to serial killers; why? You think you can fix that? You want to bring that into your life, into everyone else’s lives? Some animals aren’t fixable. Instead of populating the world with these hair trigger maully dogs, why not spay/neuter them and BE the dogs that show aggression? Remember how it used to be, how dogs that bit ceased to exist? |
Agreed. It’s not bad guns, it’s bad owners! |
You guys have really bad logic. Guns are not alive and so you can not compare guns and dog ownership. Owner behavior does affect dog behavior. If you do not train them, If you do not socialize them, If you abuse and mistreat them than you will get anxious and scared dogs who will bite. Simple. |

Another one of these lovable nanny dogs taking good care of a 2-year old:

My point was proven...abandoned and mistreated. I feel for the boy |
Other dogs in the neighborhood are. Not that particular dog. And why do so many people get sick of these dogs if they’re soooo sweet and perfect and trainable? That’s weird, right? Maybe these dogs are as unlikable as we think they are. Maybe people can’t take their weird skin conditions and odors. Maybe they’re sick of their kids getting “nipped.” |
What makes you think this dog was trained? If you haven't tried how can you say they are not trainable? You know we used to think some people couldn't learn so we put them in institutions |
Because it looks about average for a “trained” pit bull. These aren’t bright dogs. |
I'm a trainer. I love the pits because they pay my mortgage and it's basically unending funds. But...they're dumb. Their nature is shitty. They're not all that trainable, they're mostly nature not nurture. I'd never own one myself and they don't do well in sports. People always harp on "training" like it's sime panacea you fo and all is well. Pits don't train easily. The average person should not have one. |
Dogs.are.not.people. |
You're clearly not a trainer or at best a "trainer" that hasn't worked with pits because if you were you wouldn't posit most of what you've said above. |
Why? Because their experience is in contradiction to your feelings? |
