[quote=Anonymous]It is definitely an issue and when you adopt — at least at the shelter we got our dog from — spay/neuter is required.

I think puppies should be allowed to live and be raised and trained in the right environment and not be automatically euthanized because of their breed.

Older dogs should be evaluated by a behavior specialist. If they exhibit issues, they should be required to be “rehabilitated” if possible. Some dogs are sadly beyond rehabilitation and need to be put down.

We happily have a pit mix that has been with us since he was a mere 10 weeks (he is now 4!). But before we got him, we had arranged to get an adult dog which also clearly had pit or staffy. The first meeting went well but when we went to get him he exhibited signs of fear and aggression. The shelter said it would be an adjustment period and we say no thank you.

Dogs shouldn’t be adopted out if they show those signs. Sure enough that dog showed up immediately on the to be adopted page with no mention of the issues.

We didn’t use that shelter when getting our puppy. [/quote]
