Yeah, this cat is probably dead, but OMG SOMEONE MUST HAVE STOLEN HIM.

My parents literally believe that most of the outdoor cats we had growing up that spontaneously disappeared were all, in fact, stolen. Surely, some nice old lady decided to keep them and feed them fresh tuna and caviar on velvet pillows and there is no way that they were actually torn into confetti by foxes or mowed down by cars. :downs:

It was, however after looking into the build of bulldogs I'd like to retract it due to :shobon:

I've never seen a dog like that, it looked like that dog that was missing the gene to allow fat storage and was crazy muscular


This is what an actual super ripped, ~muscled up~ bulldog looks like


this is a dog at pit weight (prob dried out)


This is a pet bulldog about a pound from what would be his pit weight



Pit dogs are not ham shaped. Pit dogs are not overly muscled. Pit dogs are never blue, like the dog posted. Pit dogs are not fed steroids. Pit dogs are not "trained" to fight. I have to say this for lurkers or I will go insane. :tipshat:

Why would you breed a hippo to an OFRN. I see this so much and I don't understand why. If you love hippos so much, why would you destroy their pure, untainted hippo blood with the blood of an actual pit bull?

Yeah nothing looks wrong with that except "hurf guard dog." Sound like they've got a couple of decent dogs and did the dumb thing that pit bull people do when they try to rent which is "refuse to lie about the breed of dog I own." I really don't get why people say "YEP ITS A PIT, CAN I STILL RENT HERE."

Bloodlines are thrown around more casually in descriptions of APBTs than they are in most other breeds because there's so much type variation that "APBT" could mean anything in the world and you can't even begin to have any idea what kind of dog it is if you don't at least have some idea of the lines it is out of.

When we found Starbuck they held her for 14 days while they contacted her owners (she had a chip). When the owners didn't come for her, they released her to me to be adopted. I guess it varies, but I think most have a waiting period while they try to find the owner.

It could be she wasn't spayed and the lady didn't want to pay or something. My ACC has a rule where to get back your unneutered dog it is $300. It's $70 if you agree to neuter your unaltered dog instead of taking them back as-is. Seems like a REALLY good policy, except I was told a lot of people just give up their dogs entirely rather than pay.

I think that is a monumentally hosed up policy, holy poo poo.

I disagree. It would for responsible owners, but if they are actually responsible then the chances of their dog getting loose should be small. But if they are irresponsible owners, they will either say gently caress it and get the dog neutered and pay the $70, or pay the $300 and be more responsible about letting their dogs wander or keep them better contained in the future.

Edit: Missed the part where people just give up the dogs. Still disagree though. Sure, there is a chance the dog might end up being euthanized, but the fact that the people are giving up the dogs entirely instead of paying $70 tells me they shouldn't have had the dogs in the first place.

If Moses slipped his collar on a walk and I had to pay $300 to get him back because I refuse to neuter him based on a shelter's perpetual THE PUPPIES tears, I would throw the biggest shitfit imaginable. Holding a person's dog ransom until they agree to do what you want based on your organization's dog opinions should not be legal.

It's not the ACC that sets that fee. It's the board of county commissioners, and the ACC (as "an entity of the board of county commissioners") is required by law to collect it. Argue against the law all you like, but the ACC literally doesn't have a choice in the matter.

Ah, that makes more sense if it's an actual ordinance. I was reading it as that being some ridiculous shelter policy and couldn't fathom how it was legal/enforceable. :downs:

It's like when my friend fed her pet rat (which she'd had for like 2 years) to her snake because it didn't play nicely with her new gerbil when we were in middle school

They were supposed to be FRIENDS and the rats was VICIOUS and had to go and her parents agreed

Ya know, I totally understand where he's coming from.
Family friends of ours who lived on a farm waaaaay off the beaten path...I think when I was younger they were averaging 2-3 dogs dumped on their property EVERY MONTH.
This was a full-time farming family, the wife/mother worked part-time as a nurse with 4 young kids in hockey, etc. They tried at first. Any of the dogs that were super, super well-behaved/easy to adopt out they would try really hard. The rest had 5 days. We had no rescues, the only pound that would take "Surrenders" was 2 hours away.
Don't blame the guy who's at least giving a 1/2-assed effort. He can't take the time and money to care for them. So he's going to give them what he considers a humane passing.

Blame the loving asshats who dump their god-damned animals on farms thinking that they will magically live the best life ever.

This. When I lived out of town, dogs were dumped at the end of our road constantly, as in, several per week. Animal control consisted of like, one guy with a pickup and a crate in the back, and a shack with 5 or 6 runs attached to it. If you called about a dumped dog they would rarely come out, and you would often be told to just shoot them. After a while the ones who werent immediately hit by cars or killed by wildlife would form little packs and start harassing livestock and people. Often, there really WAS nothing to do but shoot them. There was no infrastructure in place to deal with a constant supply of dumped strays.

I'm just going to assume "Razor's Edge" and "Gotti" are the sire and bitch and that they are about three times as hosed up.

They're the two bloodlines created by idiots in the 80s (by crossing in mastiffs and bulldogs and whatever else they thought looked cool) that started the whole blue hippo trend.

You would not BELIEVE the amount of "outdoor" toy dogs I see. A lady down the street from me has like, a small herd of mini dachshunds (hosed up BYB "teacup" ones, not ones that are like actual dogs) and they just run around her yard screaming and shivering and being filthy and I really do not see what the point is. :psyduck:

I dunno, if my dogs were all curled up asleep somewhere I could see how I might not notice one as missing until an hour or two after in happened. If you're busy doing stuff and the dog is presumably sleeping it could take a while before you look up and go "oh poo poo where's the dog." Especially if the dog is a tiny chihuahua that sleeps all day.

The listing has thankfully been removed, so I don't have a screenshot, but yesterday I saw a blue and gold macaw for sale on craigslist. It was sitting in a tiny dog crate with a broom handle jammed through it as a perch. Bout six inches of poo poo and shredded newspaper were in the bottom. He couldn't even stand upright and had to hunch to sit on his perch.

They ~didn't have time for him~ anymore and wanted 800 bucks for him. :)
