I don't even understand why you'd be saying that anyone. The reason for showing videos like that to people is to make them realize that pit bulls are the victims here as well. They are the most abused and neglected breed in North America, if not the WORLD now.... when the brain washed general public thinks of the pit, they see a snarling dog with a chain around its neck. WHY NOT show the other side of the story; pit bulls with open wounds because their disgusting owners fought them, dead pit bulls lying in a back alley because they lost a fight, a pit bull burned from having acid poured onto its body because the owner wanted to make it aggressive... Why not show people those pictures? People who think these animals don't deserve the same kind of love and respect as any other dog DESERVE to go on a guilt trip...If I had a chance I'd slap them across the face while I'm at it!

There's a section on my website that deals with just that topic. http://www.pitbullproject.ca/help.htm Hope that helps  The section just above it dealing with animals in your community is useful too. The best thing to do is get the numbers of your local authorities: Police, Humane Society, and Animal Control... they are the ones that will deal with criminal cases like dog fighting. If you ever suspect anything, don't be afraid to notify. You may end up saving alot of dog's lives!

Just Thank God that your "wonderful" breed is not the target of wanna be tough guys who are looking to prove how Macho they are. If Pit Bulls are banned into extinction these Wannabees will looking for a new breed....maybe they will choose yours, you have alluded to how great they are at Guarding and "Neutralizing" targets they are; sounds like a perfect fit for the a##holes who abuse Pit Bulls. ( FYI Trying to prove a point here, I am not wishing any breed to be abused like the Pit bull) We don't want you to love them just don't irrationally hate them.

I dont have a problem with pitbulls. I hold them in same regard as I do all other dog breeds. Its just pitbull enthusiasts on this board are so zealous, its borderline weird for me.

oriondw...well there are other threads on this forum that don't deal with pit bulls...you are more then welcome to view those ones instead...I don't see the reason for complaining here...
This is a dog forum. Pit bulls are dogs. Right now, there is literally a "pit bull" crisis with BSL popping up everywhere. As responsible owners, we aim to educate people in order to prevent the breed from being targetted (which is what is happening)...sooner or later, another breed will be targetted. This is a trend we've seen throughout history. First dobies, GSDs, chow chows, rotties...now pits. Just pray that your breed of choice isn't next on the list. And if it ever is, we'll see how you react...and if you don't, well then that tells me alot about your comittment to something you love... Give me a break...

Orion, wow havent seen you here in a bit. Zelous or not, it isnt that we the owners of pits or lovers of them are trying to shove it down anyones throat, but education education education is the key here. I love my pit to death, she is the biggest 70 pound baby I have ever had, and I am glad she is that way. She is a huge pain in my back side, but what animal isnt. Izzy my siberian is even a bigger baby than Nalla and she is reaching Nallas weight at a high rate of speed, but they are both babies. I am crushed and saddened, angry and in fear of what is happening to this breed of animal. They for the most part are singled out for destruction, laws being put in place to ban their exsistance. Now if we were to ban the exsistence of any one nationality of people then we are prejiduce and are wrong in our views.
Yeah granted pits are just dogs, well this statement is true but pits are also companions, friends, babysitters and above all family members.

As a dog groomer, I spend my day handling dogs. I have NEVER been bit by a pit, nor even had one attempt to bite or even give me a funny look. What I have been bit by are the nice "family" dogs: cockers, shih tzus, chihuauas, springers, yorkies, labs, goldens. But don't think I am knocking those breeds saying they are aggressive! What the BSL supporters need to realize is that it is the OWNERS that make the dogs this way. My worst bite came from a golden that ended up pinning me in a corner and leaving me with having to get several skin graphs and reconstructive surgery on the muscles and nerves in my arm and hand. BUT that dog was EXTREMELY unsocialized: had never been out of the backyard, been around other dogs or people, taught to walk on a leash, taught basic commands like sit, stay down, etc. The dog ended up being put down several months later after it attacked the couples 15 month old son. My whole point being in this long post is that pitbulls are not the enemy here, it is the idiots that get them to guard their crackhouses and use them to fight!
