STOP THESE IGNORANT VIOLENT PEOPLE! HARSHER PUNISHMENT FOR DOG ABUSERS AND FIGHTERS! MURDER IS MURDER WHEN IT COMES TO MANS BEST FRIEND! HELP FIGHT FOR PIT BULL WELLNESS!
FUCK PIT BULLS, HAHAHAHA A FRIEND OF MINE LURED ONE OUT OF ITS YARD WITH SOME FOOD AND CAUGHT IT WITH ONE OF THOSE NOOSE THINGS THE DOG CATCHERS USE, HE TOOK IT OUT TO SOME FIELDS AND LET IT LOOSE, AND DROVE A FEW HUNDRED YARDS AWAY AND OPENED FIRE ON IT WITH AUTOMATC RIFLES, MAN IT LOOKED LIKE HAMBURGER AFTER THE FIRST COUPLE OF BURSTS OF FIRE HIT IT. WOW THAT HAD TO HURT HAHAHA, LATER THAT NIGHT HE TOOK THE CARCASS BACK TO THE HOUSE WHERE HE GOT IT AND LEFT IT OUTSIDE THIER GATE. WHAT A SURPRISE THAT MUST HAVE BEEN!
We as people really show our ignorance when we talk about something that we know nothing about!!! The only people that say negative things are the people that do not own one and is giving their argument off of second hand info.STOP with all the nonsince. And pit bull owners need to be more active in bringing out the positives about our WONDRFUL BREED!!I have three and people that are not use to pits are totally shocked when they come in my house and see the most loving and pleaseing animals that they've ever seen.Because of my three babys, we now have about 10 new APBT owners.Fighting is a dieing sport! Lets bring out the true purpose for our breed.A loveing family member that is way beyond the mindless killers that THEY love to talk about.HATE THE PEOPLE NOT THE BREED!A true animal and APBT lover!Its about time that we stood up and pointed the finger in the right direction not a general direction that includes all APBT and all APBT owners.And remember stay drug free.

Just adopted one, will be getting her from N.Y. on the 25 or sooner. I have a 13 month old son. She's great with kids! Pit bulls are the greats family dog.
RE# 7781..
Sorry I got carried away.
I forgot to mention that I have (4) four children in the home, ages 16,14,9.16months. Neather of my dogs would think of hurting any of them. As a matter of fact, when we ruff-house the dogs get mad at me, thinking I'm hurting the kids.
It an owner problem, not a dog problem.
My wife and I have owned this breed for 23 years and we have writen/compiled 4 hard bound books on the breed. This is an owner problem NOT a dog problem. We would love to direct Fox news to some real spokes people. There are lots of us know would be willing to stand up for the dogs. Need a list of people to put on the show? contact me and I will give you plenty.
I LOVE Pits, I have a Rott/Chow mix also, They get along just fine. I found my Pit running the streets and my dogs have been together since.
NOW for you stupid IDIOT PEOPLE...
SAYING A PIT IS A KILLER JUST WAITING TO LET LOOSE, THATS LIKE SAYING EVERY BLACK MAN IS A THEIF OR A CRACK SMOKER AND EVERY WHITE MAN IS A MASS MURDERER. I KNOW ALOT OF BLACK MEN WHO ARE NOT THEIFES OR DRUG USERS, I ALSO KNOW ALOT OF WHITE MEN WHO ARE NOT KILLERS.
RAISE YOUR DOG RIGHT IT WILL BE A GOOD DOG, RAISE IT TO BE MEAN AND IT WILL BE MEAN...
EDUCATE YOURSELF BEFORE YOU OPEN YOUR STUPID MOUTH!!!
23 years of responsible Pit Bull ownership and someone who has never owned one wants to take my dogs away? I don't think so! Punish whose who own aggressive dogs (any breed) not those who have loving gentle Pit Bulls. Even our Cat Loves our Pit!
to the "responsible public" #7775
I looked at dog attacks and most of them are not commited by a f&*$in pit bull are you so stupid to just beleive anything you read? you probably read a stat off of a forum like this. Well guess what the forums are for stupid people to be educated by smarter people. In this case you are a f@#$%n' idiot and I have come to teach you. Lesson one, grow a smidgen of a brain. Humans are the worst animal on the face of this earth, don't beleive me?? look at this tore up poluted planet, WE DID IT!! not pitbulls. Don't want your child to get bit, move it away from the poodle your grandmother has, b/c a poodle is more likely not to like a quick movement that a child exerts. Pitbulls play, play, and play some more, come to my house and you'll get shot, not bit, my dogs would probably let you steal everything, I'd have to shoot you b/c my purebread pitbulls are candy azzes. Now that I've gotten that out, on a more educated level, Pitbulls were bred to be dog aggressive and people passive. That means they are aggressive towards other dogs and friendly to people. Of course, just like a cat, if you pick on the animal, it may attack. Truth is you pick on it you deserve it. Why were the children on the little rascals not all eaten, bit, attacked, scared, etc?????? Are you aware the dog on the little rascals show was a pitbull? Are you also aware that he never "turned" on anyone of the people around him? A true responsible public doesn't ban a dog breed, but they take on the "responsibility" of the problem and knock out the source which isn't the dog. You want to stop all dog bites? here's a way, Get rid of all the dogs, ALL not pitbulls. Pitbulls are near the bottom of the list for dog bites per population. Unless of course you lived in a neighborhood that only housed pitbulls, then you would only have pitbull attacks. I got attacked by a parrot, don't see m
Like anything, one cannot make sweepinf generalisations, unfortunatly society has chosen to do so for this wonderful and sadly misunderstood breed. It didn't take much to get me to fall in love thanks to a lil girl named Shay (Staffy Bull Terrier)
Proud owner of a red nosed pit. I've been around pitbulls all my life and have never had one problem with them. People should get their heads out of their a** and strive to learn more about the breed instead of condemning them! Knowledge is POWER!!! Semper FI!!
Proud owner of a Female APBT & Male Rottweiler! I think people should stop the stupidy against the APBT and wise up. Most people afraid of them probably has never even met and APBT. They are so loving, its the little ankle biters you got to worry about!!!
I own two pitbulls that live inside my house with my 4 year old daughter. No aggression, no temperment issues. I contest, on a daily basis, the premonition that this breed is inherently violent and dangerous. People are terrible mislead by the media and sloped statistics... Pitbulls are the best dog...all american!!!
I volunteer at a shelter and I work with many many pitties..I have yet to have a problem with any of them. We need strictere penalties for owners who abuse and mistreat their animals. As long as we blame it on the dog and don't pursue the owners we will continue to have problems. As has been said over and over..punish the deed not the breed!
Our little APBT is the sweetest dog i have ever known. She is gentel and loving. I find that she is over the top with love and antics. She can make you smile even on a bad day. I have 2 boys that roll on the floor with her and play for hours. She has never biten one of them. I have seen small babys pull her ears and she lays there. She is tops with us. We are looking at this time for a male for her to hang out with.
I have a female pit bull that gets along great with my female husky. She is very well trained and not vicious at all. Pit bulls are commonly stolen because most of them love meeting new people.It has been proven that labs and cocker spaniels have the highest attack rate in the Us so why are pit bulls the only ones getting th bad rap.
GA is trying to ban pitbulls the fuckin legislator suck. my pitbull is the sweetest ever the only thing shes a threat to is her gas. she is suck a sweety i will never muzzle her
I have a 4 mth old pitbull, who is probably the smartest, most loving puppy I've ever had, and I've had many. I love her so much, that I am considering investing into another one.
I have a very loving Staffordshire terrier that has been a loving family member for 2 years. He would never hurt anyone and loves kids and other animals. The media should get their stories straight before slandering an adorable and loving creature like Pit Bulls.
All dogs have teeth so all dogs can bite. I have been bit 1 time and it was by a small dog. I am the proad owner of a beautiful little lady pit. She is the most loving dog you will ever meet and a very loyal companion. She is the best cuddler. She follows me everywhere I go and loves eveyone she comes in contact with, kids, adults, other animals. For this reason I need your help to save one amazing pit. She needs surgery on both her hind legs. It is going to cost $2,200 per leg. Her quality of life is quickly going down hill and the vet says soon she will be completely cripled and I will have to put a good girl down. Please help me save my little angel!
I have owned and bred APBT's since 1985 and i have NEVER had a bad dog, These dogs get the abuse from their irrsponsable dog owners and Breeders. Its a shame that us the GOOD people have to lose our dogs.
I have to lock up my 30 some Pit bulls in the house in their crates because im too afraid to leave them out at night because someone may steal them. Everyone who comes here can play and pet each one of my dogs they are such good natured dogs. I have had some people over here casing out my dogs, WHY cant the law do something about these people why dont they protect the dogs NOT these sorry people. !! Its not the dogs its the sorry people who dont do these dogs justice ! Im so angry about this banning stuff. Its not fair!
I think what these law makers should do is instead of Banning something they will NEVER ban and spending Milions of dollars educate people , put the dog owners in jail that let their animals run lose. APBT's have one of the best temperments in the world. My son who grew up with these dogs loves them and has NEVER been bitten or even so much as growled at. The dogs respect him to the fullest !
I wish that I could get a news reporter here to look at these pit bulls and how they are kept. These are not just dogs they are my children.
I think i will contact the local newpaper and do an artical on these so called bad dogs ! If we ALL stand up to our beleifs then we will oer come but i dont just take one or two people it takes us ALL to stand up for what we truely believe in ! God bless you ALL !
I have had "pittbulls" and like any dog or child they are what the owner raises them to be. Go to ebbrr.org and you will see the horror that these dogs go through while they are abused. You will also see how loving and great these dogs are even after all of that.
I would love to see the true loving gentle loyal eager to please side of the pit bull be shown to the public. If you have never owned a pitbull or known a responsible owner of a pitbull then you never get to see what wonderfull dogs they really are because "THE MEDIA" sure will never show you that. They only want to show ya the side of the dog that "MAN" has created by abuse and neglet, but then they wanna blame the dog unstead of the man who made him this way. I adopted a pit that had been abused the first couple years of his life and was scared of his own shadow, but he had no problem being a wonderful FAMILY PET, who loved my 6 year old daughter more then life. If they can still love man after man has abused them, then why cant we all love them after they have endured the abuse? I also have a picture of my mamma dog nursing my daughters baby kitten. Tell me is that the big mean dog you see on TV all the time. I would be glad to send anyone the pic who wants to see. I have so much more i could tell ya but not enough time. GIVE OUR WONDERFULL BREED A CHANCE AND SHOW THE PUBLIC THE TRUE SIDE OF THE DOGS!!!!!!!!
This whole banning the pitt bull thing is so dumb. Most of the time its not even the dogs, but the owners that train them wrong, abuse them or whatever. Maybe now we should have humans spayed and crap. Sounds dumb huh? Think about what you say and do before you do it. Mr Pike, I'm sick of you.
Its time to stop the madness i've owned several breeds of dogs before owning my first APBT she by far is the most incredible dog i've owned,stop the lies and the bias press thanks for listening
For anyone to propose a ban on pitbull is absurd.Saying that it would be illegal to have a pitbull,it is like they are referring to drugs.These are breathing living creature, not CRACK!
I think this is total crap I've owned a pitbull for 13 years and not once did she bite anyone she had a litter of 13 puppies and some of my friends have them and they are great dogs.My dog pasted away last year and now I have another one they are great dogs I think the owners are responsible.This ban is COMMUNISIM ban alcohol it kills people ban tobacco it kills more people than all dogs.
my family has owned pitbulls since before i was born, i have been around them all my life, i am 18 now and have 2 of my own, i could never ask for a better dog that is smart, a little hard headed but what dog isnt, but all and all the best dog i have ever had and i will never give mine up, by the way, kentucky, mainly lexington kentucky is thinking of outlawing them the same and michigan did with wolves, its not right, just stupid people who dont know how to raise one let it loose and its all there fault not the dogs
I own one pitbull and I have never known such a wonderful, gental dog. I think there should be more awarness as to who is taking control of a powerful animal. Any animal can become what it is taught to do. I do not blame a animial they have no choices but we do.
I've met a lot of breeds in my life and the pitbulls were the least of my problems. In each breed there is the good and the bad. It's about time that we stopped seeing in black and white ans started to see the shades of grey. Not all pitbulls are bred to be bad just as not all golden retrievers are bred to be lovable pets
All pits are great. The groomers at Petsmart even told me that the little spaniels and toy dogs are the ones that are the aggressor. So does that mean you wanna kill them too!! Point being that the American Pitbull Terriers are great!! I had Beagles and love pits more!!
I am signing this for the Pit Bulls out there that are bred to be a family dog, though I strongly suggest to everyone to be careful as to what is said generically about pits, just here in my metro area in the last week 2 pits attacked an elderly man, while most attacks are not even real pits, these were, it does happen theres no sense in denying that as a fact, however for the pits raised to be loving and mild tempered I prey for your freedom amung a world full of vicious breeders.
If the dog is aggresive, it is not it's fault. It is the owners. I think the owners should pay the price for what they do to these poor innocent creatures.
I have a pitt and hes gentle as a lamb. dogs are maen because there owners made them because they are very bad people, don't arrest the dogs...arest the owners. i have had mine for 6 years and he never bit me.
Pit Bulls are taking the rap for what the owners should be held reponsible on.. I agree punish the deed not the breed.If we allow this what and who will they outlaw next!
Pitbulls have gotten the bad rep because they happen to have been chosen by people who want to make money on dog fights. It could have been any breed but I guess no one would pay to watch chihuahuas fight! The poor pitbulls ability to take punishment and continue to fight made it vulnerable to these cruel, vicious, immoral owners. A pitbull in the right home with proper socializing, exercise and basic training makes a family pet without peer. A gentle, loving family member.
Pit Bulls are a very great breed and they are very intellegent. Punish the deed not the breed. Other breeds dont get critized so neither should Pitties! I
I do not have a pit but I have friends that do and boy do they love their pits, they are so gential and loving, hmmnn does that sound like a bad dog to you NO! I am so mad at the people that gave pit bulls a bad reputation, they are great dogs if RAISED PROPERLY, by socializing them and training them, well you have to do that to any dog. The thing is that their are no such thing as a bad dog!!!
PUNISH THE DEED NOT THE BREED!!!
Pit Bulls are commonly used for illegel fighting, this is how they got thier bad rap. I have beed around many fighting Pit Bulls in my life, now I have found out why people are afraid of them. These Pit Bulls can be trained to be very aggressive, but if you think of it so can any dog, Pit Bulls are loving dogs, if not trained to do wrong, and are a great family pet for everyone!
