Pit Bulls

[Cyclonesrule91]

Did they ever attack your daughter or act threatening to her?

These dogs were somewhat calm until someone came within 5 ft of the property line and then they were in attack mode. The back door of our house was about 10 ft from the fence and if one of them was right there it was on. Big loud bark and without our chain link fence and the log chains around their necks, I am sure we would of been attacked.

So long story short, attacked no, threatened quite often.

Does a person need to be attacked in order to fear a dog that is barking, frothing at the mouth and trying to jump at you through the fence/chain? I guess that fearless person is also one that would need to put their hand squarely on a hot stove before realizing hot stoves burn skin.

I'm not one of those ban certain dog people. However, those that believe pit bulls do not posses a significant risk are quire naive - and are the most dangerous kind of dog owners.

I am not for banning anything or any legislation, trust me. I am just saying that if one walks onto my property it will be carried off.

I got no problem with that, your property your decision, your consequences.

Amusing.

Correct me if I'm wrong...

If a dog walks onto a person's property and that person feels threatened by that dog - he/she has the right to protect themselves from an animal that is trespassing on their property.

I am not referring to legal consequences, All actions have consequences.

Yes. I, for example, have a boiling hatred of squirrels. The stack of squirrel carcasses in my backyard is astonishing.

If we are talking about banning dogs we need to throw miniature pincher's in there too.

They are by far the most vicious dogs I have personally met.

QFT.

I know I always fear for my frank and beans whenever I'm around them, if you know what I mean...

Exactly.

[ISUFan22]

Now this went from a touchy discussion to one that totally crossed the line.

Completely ridiculous.

When you have a dog that has been bred for aggressive traits for the last few hundred years, bad things are going to happen. It's in their genes, so no one should be surprised to see it happen. Pit bulls can be very sweet dogs, but at some point they will display their aggressive tendencies and genes/history.

Wow the dog was frothing at the mouth now?

This is simply not true. Pit bulls when raised by a loving family are great pets for their entire life.

You've never seen that, huh?

Does it look like I looked at the SDSU tailgate getting ready for my first beer?

Nope, it looks like me after my 10th.
