Well for the record, I never stated I had a problem with 'Bully breeds', I actually said we were considering getting one, the bullier looking, the better ...and I still like them. I've never been weary of other dogs like that, I think a lot of people (certain individuals) have them because they look intimidating when really they are big sweethearts. I know every single one hubby has met (and has met several!) were just big teddy bears with a scary bark haha.
Again, I'm not talking about responsible pet ownership here! I'm talking about the people that get or breed a dog for the wrong reasons! ANY dog bred improperly with the wrong tendencies can have puppies with problems, agressions, etc.. Some breeds are extrememly overbred, and you can't deny the Pits reputaion is out there because of the people that wanted to train them to be mean and to fight, and those people are still out there. I don't feel I have a prejudice whatsoever, and if that was referring to me, I can only assume because I don't know why other people don't like them exactly, it's offensive. I feel my opinions are logic based, but you can think whatever you want. I already stated as clear as day why I think they've got the reputation and why I wouldn't trust just any Pit or any dog.
Why don't most of you own little dogs? You hate them? Hopefully not. Well, I do know people that hate little dogs and ones that hate big dogs and they all have their reasons. I'm not a hater of any dog or cat or other animal. But it doesn't mean I would choose just any animal for my family either, and I don't see what's wrong with that. More power to you guys that love this breed, or that love GSD's or that love Goldens or Poodles, I have favorite breeds too, just so happens this isn't one of them. (the APBT)
