You are wrong is saying these are vicous dogs. Do you think AKC would allow them to be shown if they were the killer dog you and a selective few are trying to portray them as. Or waht about the pits that are search and rescue dogs? Yes there are pits that do that. But you see no one wants to hear these stories..all they want to hear his how ONE vicious pit attacked a dog. YOur right I don't know you just as you don't know me. I'm not trying to take away from what happened to you. I think the people should of been sent to court to be judged and punished and the pit in my opinion be put down. I WILL NOT HAVE A BITING DOG. But I also think that maybe you should see the whole picture before you judge. |
No, that's totally fair. Please excuse me. I think I've been so upset by the exprience on the whole that I've allowed my fears to over-ride my normal good sense of balance. It was my worst case scenario coming true and my blood still runs cold thinking about what could have happened. I'm pretty sure you're a great dog owner and that there are plenty out there but please believe me when I say that where we live, there are loads of young men pulling these dogs around trying to be all impressive and threatening and intimidating people with them. I'm really hoping that I meet a bull soon that will totally change my mind but in the meantime, I will take you as good to your word and believe you that there are exceptions and indeed perhaps a majority that are good, dependable, friendly dogs. It's a strange and funny irony that it is the very qualities I love so much in my Badger - tenaciousness, strong-will, determination and drive - that are the things I am most afraid of in bull terriers. It's a weird old world. In any event, my apologies if I've upset you or anyone else with my comments. I hope you understand that that wasn't my intention
