Pit Bulls are wrongly made out to be vicious, aggressive dogs far too often.
Well, we assure you the mental image most people have in their heads when they hear about this breed is far from true – and these two pups are happy to prove it!
The pooch pair are two (of many) foster dogs cared for by Hope for Paws, an organization that specializes in the rescue and adoption of abused, neglected, and abandoned dogs. The dogs shown here are part of the organization’s overall goal to show that companion animals are not mere items to be thrown away, exchanged, or profited from (such as in Pit Bulls who are sadly used for dogfighting). They should be loved for who they are, even if their breed has a nasty stereotype that completely contradicts their loving and playful personalities.
Watch as the two best pals frolic around the room, ducking, diving, barking, and wagging their tails in joy. Now tell us, who could resist the adorableness of these two poochy pals?
Why are there scars all over the one dog , poor thing ! Was he used for fighting ? Yes, they are cute and playing like all dogs, but that does not mean they cannot kill a person or a child if they wanted to. All of this nonsense about the dogs being good and people are bad that train them to fight or kill .. Everyone knows why Pit Bulls are used .. they are not like all other dogs.. And regardless of who trained them, the fact is, they can be deadly.
The fact is any dog over 40 or 50 pounds can be deadly especially to children. We have had 4 pits in our family over the years and NONE of them bit ANYONE EVER, even strangers they were just meeting for the first time. The dogs themselves score well on behavior tests because naturally the average pit is not crazy. A life of abuse and dog fighting changes those who have been subjected to it, but if you treat one like any other dog (get as a puppy and raise it as a family pet) you can\’t go wrong. Just the other day a friend was bit on the hand by some little Bichon out of the blue and she knew him!
Any kind of dog breed can kill if they are trained to kill. It all depends on the people who trained and care for them how they are going to turn out to be. The same thing with human beings. However the parents of these humans trained and cared for them from childhood is how they are going to turn out as an adult regardless of their genes or sex orientation.
It is stupid to think that all pitbulls are killers, so lack of education and so stereo- typed kind of mentality.
ONLY if they are just bad period but ANY dog can be trained to be mean. How would you feel if you were chained to a log chain 24/7 365 days a year? Never loved, never walked, the list goes on. You are very narrow minded. Open your eyes. Those scars came from the abuse and neglect this poor dog went through. Yet he/she is still good with HUMANS and other DOGS of ANY breed! Any dog can potentially kill a person. You make me more determined than ever to rescue every dog I can no matter what breed! And if you think all Pits are used then you are sadly ignorant. Mine is laying right beside me on the couch sleeping peacefully. You could walk right up to my door and she would just wag her tail at you and expect love and attention. The day she raises her hackles to someone is the day I stand in front of her and protect her cause I am facing a dangerous person.
Due to circumstances, we have ended up with a household full of adorable and loving, affectionate pitbull canines. We live in the only city in the metro Kansas City area that does not have a breed specific ban on pitbulls (or other breeds of dogs). They have brought joy to us and the neighborhood kids who love seeing them on walks and play. There are no mean or bad dogs, only mean and bad people who make them mean and bad.
Kudos to you!
people create animals that attack, they are not born mean. they are created by human monsters. these monsters should come to a slow and a painful end. the kind they exact on those they abuse.
