I agree. Whenever I walk my babies, I am always cautious around other dogs. I was walking them the other night and a lady was walking by w/ her Poodle and it LUNGED at my dogs. We had to cross the street because her Poodle just went crazy, barking and trying to attack my babies. I also remember a time when I first got Codie (before I had my Katie girl) and I was walking him. A guy was about 2 blocks away walking a extremely large pit bulls and his dogs just "sensed" my dog - it was very eerie - and the guy started yelling at me from 2 blocks away "pick up your dog! hurry! pick up your dog!" because his 2 dogs charged at us and dragged the guy but I was fast and grabbed Codie and ran into a store. But the dogs were barking outside the door and the guy was having trouble dragging them away. This guy obviously knew his dogs had a vicious streak and I actually felt sorry for the dogs ... how did they get that way?

But there are other pits and big dogs that LOVE my dogs. My landlady has a Rott/Lab mix named April who is CRAZY in love w/ my dogs. They sleep outside int he yard together and are always playing and kissing. So it's not the breed or the size (in my opinion) but the way the dog is treated and raised. I just feel sorry for these dogs because they are the vicitims of human abuse. It's so sad.

Well said!

America's ignorance about the history of the American Staffordshire Terrier and Bull Terrier is inexcusable.

Instead of making uninformed decisions and condemning a whole breed, why don't people educate themselves and say something worth listening to?

KRISTY SUX!!!!!!











just kidding lol.

No im just kidding.

I agree. There is so much knowledge out there that needs to be absorbed. There's so much to learn but most of us dont ever try.

I always say research is the best way to learn. You go kristy

Very very nicely put. I love when you said UNINFORMED DECISIONS and CONDEMNING A WHOLE BREED. You and Stewie made a great point.

Make sure you run if you see one of these coming:

OH I LOVE THE FIRST PIC W/ THE BABY!!!!! So cute! :D :D

LOL!! Those pics were too cute...Now I must show my Nephew Storm when he was a puppy!!

The other pic was from the past Halloween and the maltese is my moms dog, Kasey :)

This is a sad stor and I just hope that little yorkie makes it.

LOL. I like this comment. People used to always cross the street when I would walk my rotties so that they didn't have to walk past them. But they were the sweetest dogs. I miss my rotties terribly.


They look vicious dont they?? My male (pictured with Recon) was 190 pounds. He was my older sons best friend in this whole world. His name was Ogre. I got him when I was pregnant with my older son. SO they got to grow up with each other. Ogre would have protected me and my sons with his life if he had to. He was the best dog on earth.

My female, Peyton, was also a wonderful dog. She didn't have a mean bone in her body. Either.

Kelly!!! WOW!! Those Rotties are BEAUTIFUL!! I love the 2nd pic...Does every dog do that head tilt!!

Thanks for sharing those!!

They're beautiful.
