4:04 PM: Think people that have PIT BULL dogs should be taken away. have had 3 killings in our area in just a week.Just another thought on dangerous animals etc. cruise lover(~~~~~) I interact with Pit Bulls on a regular basis at Friends of Linden Animal Shelter where I volunteer. Pit Bulls were bread by the working class of London in the 1800's to act as guardians for their children. It was only after cock fighting was outlawed that Pits earned their name and were bred as fighting dogs. Most Pits have had a good deal of aggression towards other dogs bred out of them. Ebony a Lab Pit mix is one of my favorites she's a real mush when it comes to people. She loves male dogs but has issues with female dogs. We're working with her on that and she's actually made friends with one of the other female Pit Bulls at the shelter. The two of them get very vocal if we don't walk them together. Pit Bulls, American Staffordshire Terriers, Pit mixes are all wonderful family pets. They are very intelligent dogs and take to training easily. They do need sensory and mental stimulation or they can become destructive around the house. It's not Pit Bulls that are inherently dangerous, it is careless owners and those that train them to fight who are at fault. As with any pet, you never let them play with babies or small childeren without supervision. Gigi was another of my favorite Pit Bulls. She was a Pit Greyhound mix. Gigi was such an enthusiastic people lover. She'd greet us with kisses and leaning against us. (That is a major canine complement among Pits and large dogs). We had a hard time placing her because she needed so much room to run. Eventually we found a home on a farm for her. Much to our surprise the new farm family has trained Gigi to herd sheep! -- ________ To email me, Edit "blog" from my email address. Brian M.
