i am fiends with some pitbull owners and they go out of their way to constantly mention how sweet their dogs are and would never hurt anyone they are so sweet my god so gentle

i never hear anyone with a golden retriever or beagle needing to jump thru hoops to justify their ownership of those breeds

i'm gonna mcdonalds drivethru for a second but here's the thing; any dog can be a good dog. there are tons of pit bulls/pit mixes that are totally fine, don't get me wrong. the problem isn't necessarily with the owners although i'd assert that pit bulls are absolutely not a first time dog owner breed. the problem is with the inherent combination of the original intention of the breed which was unfortunately for agility and prey drive, and combining that with their ABSURDLY powerful jaws, you're asking for even the slightest potential slipup and whatever gets attacked is hosed.

i'm not gonna elaborate on why but we fostered one once for a few weeks and the entire time even when she was just seeming to try and "play" with the cat(s) i was absolutely terrified she was going to kill them if only by accident. i was once playing tug with a rope in the yard and her jaw was so strong that i could swing her entire body off of the ground like a flail and she would not let go.

pits aren't alone though in this and terriers in general are poo poo. jack russells are loving terrible too.

if you want a dumb friendly dog just get a golden. the worst that will happen is it'll probably die of cancer which is like 40-60% of all causes of the breed's deaths.

sort of wish pug owners would feel the need to jump through a few hoops to justify their dog's hell of an existence

a coworker said they wanted a pug because they were so cute and i was like "you know they can't breathe because they bred their snouts into nothing, they are literally suffocating every waking hour of their being" so now she's going to get a labradoodle

please don't troll

I do think it's real funny tho that having a dog means that at least once a day you're going to be using a bag as a hand-condom to pick up steaming hot dog poo poo

and that having a dog makes it legal and socially acceptable to put dog piss on trees and grass in public places. if i carried around a tupperware full of dog piss and threw it on a tree at the park I'd probably get arrested. but if I bring the dog piss there inside of a dog it's fine?? weird
