It's not that I don't like the breed, or any breed. We were seriously considering adopting a Bully (PB or a Frenchie) before we found Tink. I had thought about how to manage one in my house with Peek a Boo. In the end, we decided against it. I felt like I would be putting Peek's life at risk, and I didn't want to chance it. Just not worth it to me, and I felt I wasn't up to the task, wasn't Alpha enough all the time. Maybe if I was younger and didn't have back problems and a young adult to care for.
I felt bad because I had a few picked out at the shelter, and was sad not knowing their fate. Then we saw Tink, and adopted her instead. I guess I realized my limitations and I'm glad I did the research.
But now I have to deal with 3 PB/PB mixes whose owners leave them off leash most of the time. And the Mastiff puppy down the street may need a higher fence, or more training. And the lady that was being dragged down the street by her Cane Corso, haven't seen them lately. I think if I did have a PB I wouldn't be as worried (better chance of surviving an attack than a Yorkie).
