im deffinitly going to wait now, until i figure out when and where im going to move to... my plan originally was to go running every morning with the dog ... there are dozens of dog runs in the city to bring the dog to durring my post work blunt... the park on weekends... but if they passed that law that would be horrible... sooo i gotta wait... maybe look for a house on LI... not sure... it'll play itself out within the next few months then ill fig out the law and the dog....
my question is... would running everyday, plus a lot of activity on the weekends... dog run... really NOT be eough?...
If your run is two hours, yes.... It could be more like an hour and a half. As long as when you got home from work you took him to play again. Worked on training him and some commands He needs to exercise his mind also. This is a very smart breed.
A good scenario would go like this. Wake up, take your dog for an hour and a half run. crate him and go to work. Come home and take him out for another hour to a fenced in area. Throw him a ball and play with him. Work on commands and training to give him some mental stimulation.
On the weekends you should dedicate time to socialize him at the dog park. Take him for a long walk and get him familiar with people and other animals. Work on training him and more commands to work his mind out. Take him places. Show him things.
A bad situation would be
Wake up, walk dog. Get home from work, let him out of crate. Put him back in crate while you go to gym, socialize or go out. In short, not have enough time for him.That is the pattern a lot of novice dog owners fall into when the " excitement" wears off. The dog ends up spending 15 hours in a crate
Trust me, the last thing you want it a full grown, bored, male pitbull. That goes for any dominant type breed.
The bottom line is you need a lot of time and dedication. It will not be like raising a toy breed.
