    Some Pit Education

    I am wondering about responses to Mia's question about Great Pyrenees and other livestock guardian dogs. I tried to adopt a beautiful young GP female from a rescue a few years ago to keep my male company out with my 12 Angora goats. The rescue would not think of it because she would be...

    Some Pit Education

    I am peripherally involved in a case near me in which 14 pit bulls were removed from someone's home by animal control. A neighbor had complained of barking, and animal control came in without a warrant, and found a skinny nursing bitch in the basement and 13 dogs chained in the backyard. I...

    Some Pit Education

    **the first dog that was pictured (Lil Bit) happened to be a house dog, along with Rufus (the brindle dog). They live in separate rooms. The other 6 live outside.

    Some Pit Education

    Mainly, I was suggesting that on an international website, we can't assume or insist that everyone shares the same norms. But as others have already said more eloquently, I think that we in the US are too quick to judge the ethics of other peoples by our own standards, when we can't even begin...

    Some Pit Education

    most people don't, which is why you're not used to seeing it. but that is the breed standard and that condition is likely to win in the conformation show ring. and like iil bit, some do just look that way without conditioning, based on excellent care and breeding. my last post too, promise.

    Some Pit Education

    uhm... avoidance and half-answers? from what i see, the pit bull owners here have been nothing but patient and forthcoming, despite repeated questions on everything from facts to innuendo (and those mingled with insults.) Gamedogs has been challenged in post after post as to the condition of...

    Some Pit Education

    my point was that people who defend dogfighting online are often not doing anything illegal IN THEIR COUNTRIES. they could be banned immediately for being so arrogant and backwards as to come from somewhere else, or we could attempt to communicate with people about their lives and values, while...

    Some Pit Education

    nobody is here to defend dogfighting. few people defend it on game-dog, although it does happen (usually by people in other countries where it is legal - should they be kicked off the board?) but still you should get your facts straight. although it seems to be established that most of...

    Some Pit Education

    Before everyone jumps to conclusions, goes out and gets sick, washes their hands of this thread.... I'd just like to say a couple of things. I'm a member of many pit bull forums, and the purpose of www.game-dog.com is really interesting and laudable IMO. It is one of the only sites which...

    Some Pit Education

    The other thread struck a huge chord with me because I see, far too often, responsible owners whose pit bulls are seized by animal control officers and put down because they are "too thin" (or at least that's the excuse; I think it's often the anti-pit bull prejudice at work). I completely...

    hello from a pit bull lover

    Hi! My husband live on a farm with our family of 15 dogs, which includes eight APBTs, a pit bull mix, 2 Plott Hounds, a Chow-Shepherd, a large and a small Heinz 57, and a Chi who rules them all. We obviously LOVE dogs but we also have two donkeys and a mule, five chickens, and various indoor...

    Some Pit Education

    Thanks so much for re-opening discussion in this sort of open-minded way! I'm sure Gamedogs will respond about Lil Bit, the dog in the picture, and on the question of tethering. But as to the quality of gameness - many believe it can be demonstrated or even "tested" in lots of sporting...

    Do you think this dog is skinny?

    I think it's really offensive that someone would pilfer pictures from another site for the people on this thread to pick apart. If you all are so concerned with the poor dogs, maybe you should think about whether you'd post a pic of someone's child and then criticize their bodies as fat, thin...
