This morning 2 pitbulls hit my picture window trying to get our dog. Scared us big time. Hubby went out and they were long gone. So glad they didn't break my window.

Wow!! I'm glad no one was hurt. That sounds like a new discussion about the pros and cons of having pit bulls as pets.
-
oh that's scary!

In the entertainment section of our $.15 "Paid to Click" activity today, I read that Jennifer Anniston just adopted a part pit-bull puppy from a shelter. My mother had one for fifteen years when she was young. If it got loose from its chain, it would go find another dog to fight. But he loved my mom and she loved him, and as long as he was kept up, she had no problem with him. They surely do have a bad reputation. I'm glad there was a window between the two dogs!

i read that too in the entertainment section.....hmm....i'm hoping Jennifer Aniston survives her pet :)
I've never met a pit bull up close.....any dog's bark has always kept me 500 yards back XD

I think the main problem with pit bulls is that you can never predict when they might turn on someone - strangers or owners.
-
I have a Jack Russell Terrier that thinks he is a pit bull.
-
Wouldn't it be nice if owners actually took responsibility for their dogs?
-
I had a pit for years, and trained several others. Nothing wrong with them. They're easy to train, easy to socialize, and snuggly as all heck. Any dog will do things it isn't usually inclined to do when it's lost in the neighborhood. :(
-
There are a lot of pits and half pits on the beach and they do not hurt people. Now some of them do like to bark growl or play with other dogs.
One was stolen and the owner is really sad. hes checked everywhere.
I do not think I would adopt a pit just to be for sure all would be ok.

:( I have to admit I would never own a pit bull or pit bull mix. In our area there have been a lot of pit bull attacks of children and adults and I'm sorry but I don't trust the breed. Now I am not prejudiced against just pit bulls there are other breeds who have tendencies to be aggressive but it seems like the pit bulls are a problematic breed. I only like small dogs but even they can be a problem (my granny lol had a little taco bell dog that would gnaw off your ankles if she didn't put him away when someone visited) so I guess each to their own. :peace:

A lot of people are misinformed on pitbulls usually they are trained to be violent or are abused so they snap. I could rant all day about pits bulls. I don't like dogs but I really have a fancy for them they are easy to train and really smart good family pets. They have a bad reputation but are way different then people really think.
-
pit bulls are like doberman pinchers. They can be sweet as hell really good protective dogs, and good with family, but if something pisses them off, they can break character and go for the throat of their threat, even if the perceived threat is a smaller non'threatening creature...poodle, child, etc.

I am scared of pit bulls myself! I am more of a "yorkie" person! :-

I am glad I have a little chihuahua. LOL

Was that one of your neighbors dogs? You have to be careful though sometimes a dog will try to return. A pitbull lives across the street from me and saw our Yorkie Pooh in the yard and came after him. I barely had time to get the pup and get in the house. I saw the owners and meantioned it to them. They say their dog is usually in the house.
That is scary

True, a big problem with pit bulls is the type of people who have them as pets. Some people actually train them to be mean to people and other animals. However, there are owners who properly train their pit bulls and don't have any problems with them.
-
Geez, I hope they find the dogs and their owners. I do not care what kind of dog someone has the owners must have their dogs under control or get rid of them. I am glad everything is ok.
-
It would just be better off not to have one because of the fight other dogs instinct. I was friends with one at the beach and someone stole it. we looked everywhere. I still hope we find her. she did like to scare people though. :male: :dog:
-
That's serious thank God there wasn't any damages and no-one was hurt.
-
??? I have heard alot of advocates for pitbulls but in central florida we have had a lot of pet deaths, some human deaths, children and adults attacks from pit bulls. Personally I find them to be unreliable and scary dogs. Everyone to there own but I would be really angry if I had a pit come after my dog and the owner say "its usually in the house" that would be small comfort if a pet or child were attacked - seriously injured or killed. I don't know what the big attraction is but then I'm sure my post will make some people upset. Its my personal opinion though.

It breaks my heart that pits get such a bad rep. Ppl only ever seem to mention the breed if its a pit. My pit it 2 an right now he's cuddled up with my kitten. I've never had better more well behaved dogs than my pits. They are extremly smart an amazing with my babies. I was bit by a chihuahua once Lol stick that in ur back pocket. . .its not the breed its the way theyre raised. Any dog can be aggressive: )

Sounds like you better keep you dog away from that window. That is really a horrible situation. :sad1:

I'm sorry that happened to you, but I really hope it hasn't ruined your perception of pit bulls.
I grew up with them, and they're really the sweetest dogs.
In fact, when I was younger, I had a pit-mix and a German Shepard, and my German Shepard actually attacked the pit on more than one occasion...he just rolled over and took it.
Now, my mom has a pit/husky mix, my sister has a pit, and my step-dad has 3 pits.
They're all the most cuddle-friendly, loveable, sweetest dogs and it breaks my heart when people think pits should be banned or made illegal.
Pits aren't dangerous...it's the people that raise them to be mean.
Pits are very muscular dogs and have the POTENTIAL to be dangerous, but so do so many things in life.
Are we just going to ban everything dangerous from the world and all live in bubbles?
Doesn't sound much like living to me.

My son and daughter-in-law had a pit bull mix it was the sweetest dog. I think a lot depends on how you raise and treat any dog as to wheather they turn out mean or not.

Ohio just passed a law making breed discrimination against the law so now it's going to be up to a lot of cities, towns etc as to what they're going to go about their pit bull laws.
