damn body you're really passionate about these dogs aren't ya
E
Yeah. Most people think It is a bit odd. I love animals. After owning pitbulls and now an American bulldog I defend them against myths and media idiots looking for attention.
I do not expect people to all the sudden love these breeds of animals. In the wrong hands they can be very dangerous. I just want people to see it is not a "pitbull thing". You have every right to your opinion and I am sure the aggressive dogs you have interacted with where in fact aggressive animals. I just want people to have an understanding this whole mess is not the pitbulls fault. It is those who exploit the pitbulls ability to do harm and toughen up there own egos.
If people would just let the myths go and listen to people like myself they would see we do not want to run free with dogs that can hurt people. We want legislation to stop violent dog attacks just as bad as the rest of you. The difference is we see the issue is not with the pitbull but the people who are carelessly breeding them, pitfighting them and basically turning them into monsters for there own protection or small mans complex. We want to be able to own our breeds in peace and cause no harm to anyone. I don't think there is a pitbull or so called "dangerous dog advocate" that would not agree something needs to be done to stop these breeds from being exploited and abused. We just do not agree with an outright ban. The last thing I would ever want is for a child to be hurt by ANY form of dog.
Politicians love issues like pitbulls. They don't need much knowledge on the issue. They have proof in a dog attack (totally disregarding if the dog was socialized , neutered,abused or trained) and latching on to the fact and entire breed is dangerous. They make a large number of ingnortant ,angry and scared people happy, get the votes they need and can say they did something! There are several clinical and scientific studies listing pitbulls and bulldogs to have a better temperament than 99 percent of all dogs. Yet the anti pit people go find some slummed out,inbred, former pit fighting, abused pitbull and show how dangerous he is
