A yorkie was bred as a ratter. And they have a High Prey drive, but we dont blame them for it. Pitts are very good with humans. They werent bred to be mean to humans. Accually, the ones that were good with the family, were the ones that were bred when the breed was used for fighting off animals. Because the dogs were still house pets.
Anyways. Although vicks dogs were used to fight till the death, two of them (1 of which was used as a bait dog) Became the best of friends and loved to play, although before they had to kill eachother for survival!
Vicks champian fighter, Fought and killed many dogs. And was FORCED to breed with other dogsby being strapped down to a "dog rape" Contraption because her pups could be sold for up to 10 000 dollars on the black market. And her teeth were pulled put, by a PROFESSIONAL vet (Yes, a proffesional vet that cared more about money then the animal) so that she couldnt hurt the male dogs that were mating with her. And people would blame her if she hurt another animal?? She has not yet learned to except other dogs. But i suspect she will. How messed up is this world? |
The rescue I volunteer with ended up with one of his breeding dogs and she was so sweet... very shy though. A person would come up to her and she would wag her tail really slowly and it was still hung. If another dog approached her though, she would let out a small growl. She just didn't want to be bothered. Total sweetheart though.
