Guest pocketrockets Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 Worked at and had to do some volunteer time at a shelter. Worse dogs. Huskies . Goldens. Rottys. Nope. I have a husky and she is lovely. Her only bad trait is that you can't really get close to her when she is eating... we tried fixing that, got her to training camp when she was 2 years old... freaking pits, staffords, sheperds, rotts prefered to back away when she was eating. LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
housepicks Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 Naturally aggressive dog bred for fighting. Knew a guy who raised show pits. Great dogs. Until one jumped a fence and mauled another dog and the person walking it. An 11 year old girl. Aggressive animals glamorized by aggressive animals.

LCD Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 My pit/Boxer is the best dog I've ever had LCD. It was a great day when I rescued him from the pound!Haha nice Heartman! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCD Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 They should be outlawed. They do not belong in homes unless it's for protection purposesPits are shitty protection dogs. One Malinois is like worth 2 pits protection-wise. Pits are terriers. And incredibly affectionate. Pitbull part is least of your worriesExactly. The concern I would have is its basically an indoor dog 6+ months out of the year because of how hot it is. I've never had one, I could be totally off on this.This is a huge pain in the ass. You have to get up early to walk them before the heat is unbearable. The other thing to consider FH is the one time you decide to leave the dog in the car while you run in to get a bet down. "I'll only be inside one minute." The police will show up instantly, you'll get your window broken and a huge fine. Saw this happen multiple times in Henderson. For the most part a great dog however in my experience they can become very unpredictable. My son brought one home from college and he was great dog but after a year or so his behavior changed overnight and he became very aggressive, nipped me a time or 2 and nipped my daughter. We'd been taking him to the local pit bull club (Brew City Bully Club) because I was concerned when he was first brought home and wanted to learn more about the breed because I heard all the horror stories about them, the people there noticed the change in temperament and after telling them about his recent behavior they advised me to put him down which I had to unfortunately do because my then wife was starting to babysit daily for our grandson. Very tough decision and tried unsuccessfully to get him rescued but no one at that organization would touch him after we told them he nipped us a couple times. They said once they start that behavior, there is no turning back. Said that it was possibly due to poor breeding?The switch often gets flipped around the age of three. That's when the pit's adult sense of humor about other dogs can just go out the window. Aggression towards humans is usually the result of bad experiences that happened before you ever get the dog. Naturally aggressive dog bred for fighting. Knew a guy who raised show pits. Great dogs. Until one jumped a fence and mauled another dog and the person walking it. An 11 year old girl. Aggressive animals glamorized by aggressive animals.This is going to be long but oh well... Pit bulls were raised to fight in a pit (mostly other dogs). The people who raised these dogs to fight were douches but they systematically made sure of one thing. Because the handlers of the dogs had to be in close contact with them when they were fighting any dog that would turn on a handler would be usually instantly put down. You bite a human you got culled. So what you ended up with after hundreds of years was a dog that was bred to have an almost split personality, very dog aggressive but not human aggressive. Pits were also famous for (through natural selection) their high pain threshold. Dogs that could endure an enormous amount of hurt and still function were more likely to do well in the pit and then be used for breeding. You got a dog that was specifically not human aggressive, able to withstand pain and tragically, hilarious, ironically an incredibly affectionate pet but a lot of times not good with other dogs which was usually easily remedied by making sure that any pit puppy was exposed to other dogs and trained to interact with them in the correct way. But you're still dealing with a dog that was bred to fight other dogs. Anyway this all led to pits in the early part of the 20th century becoming a preferred family dog. They are very affectionate, not human aggressive, and are/were forgiving. Try tugging on a Doberman's ears and see what happens. Then fucked up shit started to happen like 20/30 years ago. Back before the 1990s? people who wanted big scary dogs got Rottweilers and German Shepherds who were all working dogs that naturally were protective and in terms of bite force quotient had a stronger bite than pit bulls anyway (American Pit Bull 235 pounds bite force, Rottweiler 328 pounds bite force). Somehow there was a shift to owning a dog that wasn't human aggressive, wasn't a natural guard dog and wasn't even that big and then turning it into exactly what it wasn't. Which was massively retarded. In pit fighting the whole point was the dog who won was the dog who got hold of the opponent's neck first. If the dog grabs onto the opposing dog's neck there's nothing the other dog can do. The dogs who won the most (outside of the intangible thing called gameness) were the ones that were able to get the other dog's neck and those were usually the lankier ones not the massively muscled ones. Just like in MMA, speed usually wins. But somehow you ended up with retards who weren't really dog people and who thought that having a human aggressive, squat, yoked pit bull was badass. They were wrong in every respect. And then more people thought this was cool. And once a dog is a fad then you have a lot of humans who don't know what they're doing fucking with the breed. Even people who supposedly know what they're doing like AKC decorated breeders have managed to almost destroy German Shepherds. The puppy you end up with is the product of genes, the situation of the mother (stressed is bad), early human handling and then exposure to the right things at the right time in the first 16 weeks of the puppy's life. A lot of times, dummies raising pits don't know what they're doing, don't do anything right and are doing it solely for the money which comes from selling the cute puppies to the next sucker down the line. They get almost everything wrong. What do you think is going to happen. You rescue a dog you're kind of hostage to all these things. But you can overcome anything. I have a human aggressive pit mix that was tortured when she was very young. She bit me 25 times when I got her. She's very sweet know. Well, relatively. Jake met her. Great with kids. The dogs are almost never the problem. It's people who fuck them up. People fucking blow. You can always just get a basket muzzle and eventually fix whatever is wrong. FH don't get an Akita. Wait till you take it into a casino as a service dog. And some knucklehead security guard starts hassling you and you get excited and then yelling starts. True service dogs (like seeing eye dogs) are selected for their response to pain and stress, they're supposed to shut down. What do you think the Akita is going to do when he/she sees you getting into it with casino staff. The Akita is not shutting down. Sorry for rambling.

Though interestingly, it will likely not permit any strange man within six feet of Billsy -good security for Vegas-area weirdos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

housepicks Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 Same reason that rednecks have stills and drink moonshine...Because it's a way of life going back hundreds of years? Including George Washington who at the time of his death had the biggest operation in America. That's why blacks like pitbulls? Sounds like a quick response with zero thought and zero correlation to a group of people who favor violent dogs over other breeds. Your comparison shows racial undertones as well. I'm offended.
