My husband and I did a lot of
research and bought breed
specific
books when we knew
that our time with our dogs was
coming to a close.
We wanted to be educated on
what breed of dog we would
have next. I
knew I didn't want
another lab. After a YEAR of research we decided on either an Amstaff or APBT, specifically because of their reputation
as a family dog and how great they are with kids. We were all set to go
to a breeder when we decided to look in to rescued dogs. We were
astounded at how many Pit Mix dogs were languishing in shelters.
WHY??
That's when we learned about how misunderstood and misrepresented the
breed was. Not that we've lived under a rock but I'd heard so much
garbage about my big dogs growing up. And ... I'd always loved my
friends Pits that I just didn't get it. So...
You all have been hearing this for some time. You're used to it.
I'm just learning about it all and I'm angry!!! It makes no sense.
None whatsoever.
Did you know that Bearded Collies have one of the lowest % ratings
with the American Temperament Test Society. Thousands of Rotties and
Pitties are tested every year and rate in the mid 80's. We looked this
all up when deciding what dog to get. I know, It's nothing that you don't already know but SHEESH..
Come on people. So we adopted a pit mix from Dawg Squad and WE LOVE
HER.
Seriously, my daughter is a bigger threat to society right now
than my dog. When is someone gonna put a ban on 3 1/2 year old bossy as
all get out girls I ask you???
