Final reply to all the PB haters.
When I was kid among the many pets we had over the years were a Black Mane South African Lioness, Ocelots, a Coatimundi, Raccoon, Skunk, very large Iguana, Red-Tail Hawks, Ferret (The only vicious animal, wild caught) and more dog breeds than I could catalog.
Never a problem with any but the Ferret which we eventually released as it could not be tamed.
A neighbors house-cat had a habit of going nuts and attacking people at random, it got put down.
We have rescued several “Vicious” dogs and all responded to decent treatment very quickly.
Some people should not be allowed even a Parakeet, and no one is forcing anyone to have a PB.
So stop with the know it all broad brush already, none of you are going to convince that any of my several PB’s that I miss so much were the Devil incarnate.
If “Hunting Breed” = EVIL as so many here are claiming then MOST breeds would be unmanageable.
Do not bother responding, I am done with the haters.
Does that mean you'll finally stop your gaslighting on this thread?
Your personal experience is not a universal reality applicable to all PB situations. People who are realistic in assessing the risks of owning the breed are not haters. You are overdefensive for a reason. Ask yourself why.
