They have a bad name because of irresponsible owners..you don't need to tell me that I"m a big advocate for pit bulls. If someone were to get one research their bloodline and get one that is bred from good lines..those lines are chock full of gentle dogs. Stay away from those that breed and fight their dogs. It goes on still today. |
I'm not criticising bull breeds and their owners unnecessarily though. The British Government didn't ban the American Pit Bull because they were having a knee jerk reaction about it, believe me. Alot of research and expert opinion went into that decision. And as I've pointed out time and again on this thread, I don't know what the situation in America is like but I do know the situation in the UK and that the majority of people who own bull terriers are socially irresponsible and aggressive. I've also seen enough of bull terriers in my life to know they are hard-wired to attack other dogs. If you've had a pleasant experience with a bull dog then you were lucky and I'm glad for you but please don't try and make me out to be an idiot. Yours is just an opinion based on personal experience as much as mine is. And my opinion based on
my experience is that they are all bad dogs. And I'll just point out that this thread is about how my dog was almost killed by a bull terrier on Saturday and how I've suffered a terrible shock from it that I'm still trying to get over. So please don't ignore my feelings for the sake of your grandstanding. Thanks very much
