It’s not the dog, it’s the idiots that turn them into rage machines. I’ve been around large and dangerous dogs all my life. I have three German Shepherds now. I’ve never had an issue. Part of it is because I know how to work with large and potentially dangerous dogs. The other is that I’ve never met a dog that couldn’t be rehab’ed.

Now, if anyone tries to shoot my dogs, we’re gonna have some real ugly issues. Badge, no badge, it doesn’t matter. My dogs are there to protect my daughter, you assault them, you’re proving to me that you are trying to harm my daughter. It’s called constructive intent.

But, if that happens, I’m feeding the offender(s) to my snakes. One piece at a time if necessary.

OMG...that was horrible.
[and it was a goat, not a cow]

There are creeps who catch recently-fed Pythons and Anacondas and torment them until they regurge because the snakes can’t escape from their torturers with their bellies full.

They do this for YouTube hits.

I have a feeling the person who filmed this was involved with snake regurging.

B@stards.

The human is so depraved who would do that....I hope there is a special place in Hell for them. Events like this make me ashamed to be part of the human race. It’s disgusting.

It’s especially horrid when you consider a lot of the snakes die from doing that.

That one in the video also threw up blood, most likely from the goat’s horns tearing its throat on the way back up.

They don’t care.

It’s “just an animal”.

“However most people who state that “all they care about is the truth” usually have an agenda and are liars. This is how they try to cover up their lies.”

That has got to be the most ignorant illogical post I have read in all my years at FR. Seriously.

Were the words too big for you to understand?

If so then it is your problem.

Perhaps you can find someone to explain it on a second grade level as I am done with you.

It sure as hell did jump about 12 feet down. Unless you are calling me a liar, which isn’t going to go over very well.

Most people in Texas don’t keep their dogs on the roof. Maybe I’ll put all seven of mine on the roof to see what happens. Or maybe not.

Oh and BTW n00bie, take your threat and shove it up your ass.

I once had a border collie-ausie cross that use to jump from the heat pump up onto the roof from the back yard, cross over and jump down into the front yard so he could go roaming.

He couldn’t make it up to the roof in one jump, but easily made it down in one, looked like he was flying.

We named him Sharky, cause he ate like one. I also saw him snatch a pheasant out of the air.

He was a good dog, but simply had to be supervised at all times because he was just a regular Tom Sawyer in search of adventure and hijinks (and pancakes, he loved catching and eating pancakes).
