Maddie - Cocker Spaniel 1
Missy - German Shepherd 2
Sounds about right to me. I think I would switch them around, Missy have the one and Maddie have the two, but hey - no complaints here.
I get frustrated, too. Easily. It's a very sad and frustrating situation. BUT, in my area, I've found that most people are simply uneducated. They simplly don't know, no one has ever told them anything other than Pit Bulls are vicious man-eating dogs. yeah. And it's hard to educate them, especially when a house down the road has two "pit bulls" - one male and one female and the whole neighborhood talks about them. The female is very aggressive, to both dogs and people. The male postures a lot, but after an unintended interaction Missy decided she loved him and they played He let me love on him, too. But these dogs, they literally tear down the house, break glass windows, and bust down doors while their owners are at work. And then both of them are loose all day until the owners come home... AC won't touch them I've heard rumors that the female has killed a cat, and bitten a neighbor. It has happen 3x that I know of, for sure.
And the best part is - they just bred them. Yep, the female is way preggo, now

I just get frustrated that people believe that these behavioral traits are APBT specific, that there is no other breed with the same issues. Yet many dogs, both large and small, can, if not trained/raised properly, have the same, or worse, issues than the "Pit Bull".
