[quote=Anonymous]This is a nasty and mean-spirits thread. The people who are railing against these "killer dogs" have probably never truly known one, and that's a shame. Full disclaimer. I've never owned any of the breeds in question. I have owned Pomeranians, which, unless I'm mistaken, hardly qualify. They are often referred to as "yippy" and "high strung" which is unfortunate, since I have owned 4 and none has been that way. They don't bark, don't jump, and have all been exceedingly well trained. As a responsible dog owner, that is my JOB. My sister has owned 3 Rottweilers. (not all at the same time) 2 males and 1 female. Her first came to her by way of a friend who was moving and couldn't take it with him (long story) and he begged her to take his dog. She did, fell in love with the breed, end of story. She didn't buy them to be "cool" as suggested. She is an excellent dog owner, takes training EXCEEDINGLY SERIOUSLY, and her dogs have always been the kindest, sweetest dogs I've ever known. I've never so much as been growled at by her dogs. The Yorkie down her street is the nastiest little dog I've ever met, however, and it actually ran up (off leash) and bit my ankle (from across the path). Bad owners, not bad dogs. My sister's dog stood there and didn't even react. So really? You'd euthanize my Sister's dog because he's big and a "killer dog" and let that Yorkie run around terrorizing the neighborhood because he's small? Stop blaming dogs. Force owners to learn how to train their pets. I train mine. It's not a choice. Killing them for what they are isn't, either. [/quote]
