If everyone is so concerned with the negative stereotypes associated with Pitbulls, why do half the pits you see pictures of, have big ass chains wrapped around their necks, like the dogs are pulling down trees or something. I mean, seriously. Do you guys not realize that actions like that do nothing but perpetuate the stereotypes for these dogs given to them by the media.

Now, I'm not saying you should run out and buy a pink collar with rhinestones on it to improve the dogs image, or anything. But if you really want to improve the image of the breed, stop "dressing them up" like the cover of a Rap CD.

The same could be said for negative stereotypes for black people.

So I don't see the difference.

but all jokes aside....dogs, they're cool

drft-s12 · 08-27-2009, 03:13 PM

Here is my pit her name is Lilly she is about seven months now and she is really nice just really hyper all the time and when she gets excited she starts peeing lol

ho0dlumka13 · 08-27-2009, 03:13 PM

they are the best breed of dog out there. the media likes to call every dog that attacks a pit bull beacause it sells pappers like everyone said its how you raise them and it's true. i can trust mine with my 4 year old cousin by themselves. it is the only breed of dog i will ever own. just be sure you not in an area that doesnt allow you to have them

here is mine at 9 months ROYCE

VNG704 · 08-27-2009, 03:17 PM

If you have a lot of time and dedication to train/raise them then get one. They're naturally meaner dogs, imo. My experience, two diff puppies one is a full blooded pit and the other not. The pit growled at me and bro at a very young age. Maybe because I raised my voice at it for getting a hold of something she shouldn't have but at her age to be able to do this, I was shocked. The other pup never once scared me. Like I said, they "can" be just as nice as any dog but it takes the dedication to train 'em. The pitbull is one of the top 5(?) reported attackers. I know alot of people in here are pit lovers. I'm not a pit hater. I dislike dogs in general. I hate picking up after anyone(or thing) that's not my child.

ho0dlumka13 · 08-27-2009, 03:23 PM

these dogs are not for first time dog owners unless your down to put time in. the breed gets enough hate and doesnt need anymore. you dont want to put yourself, your dog, or anyone else in danger

240love · 08-27-2009, 03:37 PM

This is my friends pit when he was 5 months old his name is Rambo

meteorite_flo · 08-27-2009, 04:19 PM

Pittbull's are cool, I have one and it's really nice. He doesn't bark at people nor bite. He only barks at cats, but doesn't even bite them either. The only thing about him is that he likes to bite/chew on things like my shoes.

Honestly Barry, the reason most pits have big ass chains on them are because they are so strong. My pit used to pull me around when I would walk her with a regular leash. You notice that most of the chains used on pits are choker chains...Mika would not stop pulling untill I got her a choker chain with prongs on it . That was the only way she would stop pulling. She was so bad that when she was 3-4 months old, she literally pulled my wife off some steps causing her to sprain her ankles badly.

So if any of you have pit that wont heel when you walk them, prong chains. fastest way to train them to walk next to you. Eventually, you can walk them without a leash and they will always walk next to you.

As far as the breed goes. My dogs such a fucking sissy its not even funny. I can let her go off the leash and she wont run away. If she takes off, I'll stop walking and she'll come running back cuz she thinks Im gonna leave her. She does bark or growl, she still gets hyper tho even tho she's over 2 already and got fixed. Only way she would kill somebody is if you pass out, fall on the ground and she decides to lick you to DEATH!!!

Anyways, here's my monster when she was a puppy...

This is her now...

SimpleS14 · 08-27-2009, 05:05 PM

^-- cute

I wouldn't mind one. I've been around a few that are really nice.

**ThatGuy** · 08-27-2009, 05:07 PM

I understand choker chains. I understand strong dogs. My GSD could pull my car down the street, and he did on a few occasions just for run.

Logging chains, on the other hand, are just "ghetto bling" for dogs though. They just make the dog LOOK tougher. 2"-3" links of chain from Home Depot aren't doing any better of a job then a proper quality leather, or webbing collar would do.

DreamN · 08-27-2009, 05:11 PM

ahh such perty dogs.

I don't have a pit, but heres my dog for shits and giggles.

We believe him to be an Akita/Shepherd mix, but with any rescue dog you're never to sure. Either way he does share character traits of both breeds and seeing as both breeds are susceptible to being aggressive and have heavy prey drive we keep in check as much as possible so he doesn't develop those bad habits.

His name's Rico. He's a little over a year old and 61 lbs. of love.

DrftSLowHomIe!! · 08-27-2009, 05:23 PM

95% agree. I wouldn't say they're necessarily "the best" since there's a lot of different things that go into a judging a breed.
But, I'll say that they're definitely my favorite breed.

Your opinion is far from fact. They aren't naturally meaner dogs, they just have one hell of a bad image problem. Educate yourself on the topic, please.

That is a good looking animal. lol

I've had several pits over the years. Several of my friends and family members have had them. NONE of them have been aggressive. They tend to be very affectionate, and usually pretty dorky. They play and snuggle with toddlers and kittens. They make for GREAT baby sitters.
Ever seen a 90 pound pit play with a 2 pound kitten? Cutest thing ever.

There are a ton of breeds out there that are far more aggressive, but they don't have the image that scares people. Like chows. Fuck chows. Worst breed ever.

There's a website that sells a DNA testing kit. They send you the kit, you draw some blood, send it back, they do breed analysis, and send you the results. Its pretty cheap, too. Less than 70 bucks, iirc. I can't remember the site, though.

OP: Like I said, they are great dogs. But if you're worried about it, you're gonna project that anxiety onto the dog, and it will act up. That's not a pit-specific thing, that's just a dog thing. Don't get one.

*!Zar!* · 08-27-2009, 05:27 PM

Yeah, Chow's are probably on top of my list for aggressive dogs.

soreballz · 08-27-2009, 05:33 PM

Which Dog Breeds are the Most Aggressive?

Quote:

Here's a look at the various dog breeds that are considered potentially aggressive.

* Chow Chows are one-person dogs that tend to bite without any warning. They are also a bit ferocious around strangers, and can be quite a tenacious fighter. So make sure to discipline this dog and set right from wrong, immediately.
* The Papillon is fiercely loyal of their owners - to a fault. They can be quite possessive and standoffish to strangers.
* Old English Sheepdogs are very protective of their owners so they might be aggressive if anybody tends to be too close to its owners.
* A Llasa Apso often gets cranky around kids.
* Rottweilers are extremely protective of their masters.
* Chihuahuas aren't too fond of kids. They'd rather be with adults than play around with tots.
* Toy Poodles bite people and other animals out of self defense. Unfortunately, 'playing' according to you may be perceived as a form of 'attack' to them.
* Dachshunds aren't known for their patience.
* Jack Russell Terriers are feisty creatures who require early training to prevent long-term biting and digging problems.
* Giant Schnauzers are very dominant. They often challenge adults, particularly strangers.
* Cocker Spaniels often suffer from a dangerous genetic disease known as "rage syndrome." This syndrome causes spontaneous violent action against not strangers, but actual family members. Many Spaniels have been put down because of this unwanted behavior. Check with the breeder to ensure your Spaniel is free from this dangerous dog disease.
* The Pekingese isn't all that tolerant of strangers.
* Miniature Pinschers usually have aggression issues because they've got this "big dog-little body" mind set going on.

Here's a rundown of breeds that are typically gentle but can't shake off their "bad dog" image.

* Boxers are pretty good with kids. They are good watchdogs, but will only become aggressive
* Bulldogs are very playful and gentle.
* Great Danes, while considerable in size, happen to be kind and affectionate.
* Mastiffs are especially quiet and docile.
* German Shepherds are great with kids too. These are courageous, fiercely loyal dogs who, if trained properly, will be extremely gentle to family and guests.
* Rottweilers are also capable of tenderness and affection. They have a bad rep, but if they trust you, you'll never have to worry.

In truth, most pit bulls aren't really as aggressive as they're made out to be. They tend to be loving, gentle and playful. But there are some that have been raised and trained to be highly aggressive. Such pit bulls tend to be more aggressive toward other animals than people. Aggressive pit bulls often have a history of being abused or neglected, and getting trained specifically to fight. Pit bulls that have been mistreated are seen as being extremely dangerous, so avoid them. If you own one, treat it gently and lovingly.

POW! Look how many LITTLE dogs are on that list. People don't fear them due to their small size, but fuck, lots of those little bastards are mean as hell.

Oh, and the reason they mention that pits tend to be more aggressive toward other animals than people... Through the years of breeding pits for fighting, aggression towards humans was NOT tolerated. If the dog showed any aggression toward humans, it was typically either put down or castrated. Either way, human-aggressive pits were rarely allowed to breed.
Even the fight pits are typically good with people. I wouldn't trust those particular dogs around kids or anything... Just sayin'.
