Re: Pit bulls and babies
Depends on how it's been raised. If it's by some arsehole skinhead type who has one for macho posturing then chances are that the dog won't have been trained properly. I worked in properties that have Pitbulls, and they've been loving and affectionate.Re: Pit bulls and babies
I am a dog lover and We've had them all our lives (so far) My wife is a veterinary pharmacist. THere's no easy answer with them. Like people, they have many behaviours common to their species but they are all different and there is absolute evidence that some breeds are represented in incidents or violent behaviours more than others. All dogs are dangerous if they are encouraged to be or mistreated and therefore always defensive. JUst like people. End of the day they are animals and can't be expected to behave well ALL the time..like us wonderful humans. (joke) You can enjoy a dog and it can be your best friend regardless of the breed. It can protect you with it's life. But don't take chances..ever..Re: Pit bulls and babies
Re: Pit bulls and babies
When a baby cries or squeaks a dog can react to that noise and think it is a squeaky toy with horrendous results. Even our Afghan hounds raised their heads to see where the noise was coming from, consequently they were never left alone with our babies.Re: Pit bulls and babies
That picture freaks me out too Bakerman...I would.never leave any dog with a baby no matter how well trained they are.Re: Pit bulls and babies
I would NEVER trust a dog, any dog - or cat for that matter alone with a baby or young child. Not only for the same of the child but also for the sake of the dog or cat. I've seen other peoples kids do the most awful things to animals.Re: Pit bulls and babies
That photo made me feel nauseated, how could anyone allow a dog or..... or cat get that close to a very young defenceless baby.... or any young child.Re: Pit bulls and babies
