[quote=Anonymous]They are definitely not all pit mixes. We have a rescue who we were told was a lab mix. He turns out to be lab/shepard/beagle. We were in your shoes when he was about a year old. We had 3 young children and he was super high energy and seemed untrainable. He ate our furniture and jumped on our kids scaring them. Thankfully he showed no aggression We tried to return him but the rescue offered lots of support instead. They directed us to Your Dogs Friend which was a game changer. But it took a lot of time and patience. Unfortunately, those early years made it difficult for me or my kids to bond with him and I feel guilty about it. In retrospect we should never have adopted a dog. I wish the rescues provided more education pre-adoption. We had only had cats before. I’m glad we stuck it out but I won’t ever have a dog again. If your dog is a pit and hard to control, I’d consider rehoming to a household without kids if you’ve exhausted training options. [/quote]
