I must've assumed that the two dogs you stitched up were not pits, because you didn't state that they were. Most times if pits are involved people like to mention the breed.
I do all of those things that you have mentioned other than crating and letting them off leash, of course on private property. We don't have dog parks here, and even if we did, I would not go there. I trust OTHER people's dogs much LESS than my own.
Hades is neutered, he's in his third set of obedience lessons, one set of privates and his second set of group ends this Thursday and I never, EVER leave my dogs outside unattended.
This is my issue doberkim, it seems as though you are so very quick to judge when you haven't even met my dogs. You especially seem to enjoy bringing me down about Roxy's issues with strangers, and you are persistent in mentioning what used to be dominance issues over the furniture. Even when it's not relevant to the topic on hand.
And you know what? I don't mind. Because I openly admit that it's my fault, even though my vet, as well as a behaviourlist has told me that is was a mix of genetics and environment that made Roxy out to be the dog that she is today. So because I know that it was mainly my fault, you constantly reminding me, really does not bother me.
But the fact that you know neither of my dogs, and not once have I ever posted anything about Hades that anyone could even distantly perceive as aggression, and the fact that you still choose to bring up previous issues is unbeknowst to me.
The facts are this: As a pit owner, I do everything required to be responsible according to the law and MORE.
Hades has never shown aggression towards Roxy or any dog or person.
To be totally honest I am disapointed that as a vet, you can't admit that it is possible for a pitbull to be "stable" as you like to say with other dogs. Even one that is owned and trained by me, the one at fault for the horrible ticking time bomb Roxy.
So bash away, but I know, that Hades is trustworthy when it comes to Roxy.
And even the thought of Hades ripping Roxy apart is absurd.
I tried to register with that forum and it would not allow me, a problem with verifying a code, but I did take a cruise around, and searched, "unattended/supervised dogs together" and nothing of relevance came up. If you find something I'd be glad for you to share it.
But every dog is different, not just pitbulls.
I can't believe that it is so hard for you, an experienced dog person, to state that a stable pitbull is impossible, that they are always a risk. Technically every dog is a risk isn't it?
If a vet isn't on our side than who is?
