[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Love poodles!  Not doodles, good, old-fashioned poodles. I love the look of a German Shepherd, not the ones with the sloping back, but the ones that look more like a Belgian shepherd  But I know that I don't have the skills to actually own one of those dogs.

Hate pit bulls, any pit-bull mix, and any of those other dogs that have a reputation of violence. Like Cane Corsos and like.

And for the poster, who seems intent on defending Pitt Bulls every time it came up in this thread, yes, even one percent pitt is too much for me. I am the poster that wants to eradicate them by attrition. If they are all spayed and neutered, no more pitt bull puppies.  a very humane way to get rid of the breed.  And one of the reasons that this breed in particular is being called out by me, is because of posters like you that no matter how dangerous they are, they want to share what lovely dogs they are. We don't get the same response from people who are German Shepherd or Doberman enthusiasts. They know that it takes a certain kind of owner to have one of those type of dogs.[b] Pitbull owners are just over the top and think that anybody can own them.[/b] And that's why we have the problem we have with that breed. So blame yourself for making people hate the breed.[/quote]

Hello. [b]First of all, there is ONE t in pit[/b].  Second I'm sure in the past when Doberman or German Shepherds were/are being vilified they would strongly defend them.   But, remember we didn't have the internet when they were seem as "bad" dogs so you can not compare my defending them.

Remember there are FIVE breeds that make up pit bull dogs.  I think they are the only dog breed that has that many and with mixes you have many many more variations.

"Here are the five breeds: American pit bull terriers, Staffordshire terriers, American Bully, Staffordshire bull terriers and Staffordshire bull terriers .

https://www.thesprucepets.com/pitbull-dog-breeds-4843994pit bull" types now and then.

You have your first amendment right to say your opinion on how YOU hate the breeds and wish they weren't here BUT I also have the right to MY opinion and I will defend them.    No where did I say that these dogs are for everyone.  The same way German Shepherds are not for everyone.  But, I am not for banning them or wishing they didn't exist.  Remember your history.  German Shepherds and  Belgian Malinois were used as police dogs to attack Civil Right movement protesters and also by Nazis to attack Jews and other people.  They have the right to exist as do "Pit bull' types and the mixes.

Are there dogs that attack and do serious harm to people, children and pets.  Yes.  But, first if a dog is 33 percent pit and other dogs that are "tough" German Shepherds etc how do you know that it isn't that part that makes them aggressive?

And lastly, poorly trained dogs and abused dogs can not be held responsible for what the humans put them through. If you chain your dog to the back yard, never feeding them or taking care of their physical or emotional needs and then train them to fight you cannot expect them to be animals that know how to live in harmony with the world.

So in the end while I have the ability to see that some animals harm other people etc there are good "pit bulls" who have been heroes.  Your denial of this is just as stubborn as me defending them.  So, as long as I can type I will say my opinion and defend these dogs.

I don't care if you respond but, you do not have the right to silence me.

the double 't' and its continued use after being corrected multiple times is just emblematic of their overall low threshold of information and critical thought.

[b]Or their spell check auto changes it[/b]    Regardless of how it us spelled, pit bulls are not appropriate pets.  The pit in pit bull is because the dog was bred to fight in a pit.   That is a fighting dog. Not a herder or any other type of working breed.  
I have to say, based on this thread alone, the owners or enthusiasts match the dog breed.[/quote]

But neither "Pitt" nor "Pitt Bull" or "Pittbull" are words so that doesn't explain it.

Like I said, low capacity of information and critical thought.

Due to their history, some can be aggressive toward dogs but human aggression was not only something that wasn't selected for, it was a trait that was avoided due to the nature of the "sport".
