[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing that really would help is if animal shelters stopped adopting them out (and frankly, sent them to kill shelters). I took my kids to the animal shelter recently to drop off some blankets and literally ALL the dogs there were pits or pit mixes and they were so loud and aggressive. My kids didn't want to go into the dog room, they were so scared.[/quote] I'm a big dog woman and[b] I've stopped both volunteering with and donating to most shelters because they can't solve their pit problem[/b] and are often part of the pit propaganda machine. I think it's disgusting. No Kill was cool when we were talking about an escaped Lassie who needed to spend a night with animal control before the owners arrived for a pickup, but it's ludicrous now. Bite histories distorted, lying about breeds, pushing pits as the ultimate family dog just to get them out of there, some spending YEARS in a subpar environment . It's honestly disgusting and negatively impacts so many people (not to mention the dogs and cats killed) who have to live with these dogs around them. And I feel for the dogs! It's total ahit humans who keep breeding these beasts, dumping them on the side of the road, trying to get 25 bucks for a pup, etc. Trash dogs and trash humans. Like they deserve each other. [/quote] Same. I volunteered to walk dogs at a large shelter once a month. Their regular walkers had their favorites and I always had to walk the pits. I was walking one that I had walked sevreal times and it got agitated at something (no idea what) and it turned and bit at my leg (thankfully missed my skin)and got my jeans, didn't lock on, just quick. That was it for me. We used to donate to local rescues but I am not supporting the housing/care of them anymore. Too dangerous.[/quote]
