If the dog is dangerous in that other 1%, it's pretty f'n obvious and you leave it alone while carrying yourself in a way that tells it to leave you alone.
In the end any breed can be a great buddy. The pit bulls and german shepards I've known have all been great and I've trusted them compleatly. And they all knew I was boss.
Seriously now, where the hell did this rant come from. Let's rewind and read what I said: "I walk my dogs off leash often, but not always because people are frightened". That's a pretty vague description of my dogwalking routine. Could you possibly have less information? You don't know where I live, when or where I walk my dogs, what my specific policies are for leashing and unleashing or really anything at all about what I do with these dogs. Yet you have enough to declare "the kind of pitbull owner that scares you to death". WTF is that? Must be a nonstop blast to be you. Here's to living in a fear of a completely hypothetical nonsituation.Quote:

Correction: It is severe enough when it does happen that it gets reported by the media. If you can find dog bite records for your city or county I will guarantee you 100% right now that pitbulls will not top the list as far as frequency goes.Quote:

How many times do you suppose I've been assailed by tards that have no clue? It gets old.Quote:

Because that information applies to all dogs. A dog will BE busy. No matter what. The owner can either channel that into something awesome with exercise, discipline and proper attentiveness or they can neglect their dog and allow to become a shitass. That quote is not Boerboel specific. Some schmuck wrote that not any dog authority.Quote:

THAT'S ALL I'M SAYING. It's not a beginner's breed.
Had you said "Are you sure a pitbull is the best choice for everyone? Even a beginner?" And I'd have said , "No I was just ranting". But you had to fire up that sweet sweet internet tone. The kind where somehow I'm not allowed to be smart or have intelligent well formed opinions because you're so much smarter. Because you like labs?
Surgery did fix it. He's going to look just fine except for the little digger under his eye. Allegedly that will be lumpy.Quote:

I'll see what I can do. I don't want to really ask any questions about this subject. Even the wife is super embarrassed and feeling guilty about the whole thing.Quote:

He had to stay in his dog run or be on a leash after that :(Quote:
