We get it
Pit bull hysterics knows no bounds
And you’re better than us
Pit bull owners=savages
Pit bull haters=going to heaven
You can. Probably tell
Taking it easy is not natural for me
My wife is on my ass already
Last nite my middle boy and I cruised downtown Chicago for three hours in my truck rocking to zepplin 24 hours after hour hour heart catheterization
I felt alive ..which I like
She was livid
No kidding
Not much nuance to be found here
Glad you get it
< /your sarcasm>
What do you fear?
Nothing wrong with a .38. Not a nominal caliber at all.
Death and leaving my large family....who depend on me....how will they fare....a constant fear for an old dad with not so great health
Of course the biggie is death of a child....second place is way back
I fear being rejected by God for my sins and refusal to accept his son as my path to salvation....which is why I don’t ....I’m a Christian....who doesn’t mind pit bulls and other rough breeds
My adult Rottweiler on my homepage was killed by a car one and a half years ago
My constant 150 pound fearless companion day in day out for five years
I picked up my truck keys and he was Johnny on the spot always ready to jump in that front seat and ride anywhere ....to the gas station or Dallas Texas ...wherever
I own a small chain of car washes ...tunnels autos etc....me and the bank that is
He was a great guard....nobody but kids would come close and he liked kids and splittails...
I knew when we’d got home that night and drove the hill up our 400 yard gravel drive and he wasn’t there waiting on the top of the wall...I just knew right away
My older boys found him and buried him ....my wife sobbing hysterically holding his bloody body screaming at me begging me to fix it....it was awful
I’m 60 now and I’ve lived a long very very complete life of adventure and danger and death and love and reward too and escaped the reaper many times from a gunshot to congenital heart crap and boat sinking middle of the gulf and motorcycle accidents etc....buried my folks and a lot of people that mattered to me
But that night as we watched my older boys bury Becket out by our old deer stand at the back of our rear pasture in the truck lights
My wife and then 9 year old sobbed a solid 20-30 minutes
And I did too right along with them....
Only time in my adult life ever I’ve sobbed ...ever...typical man just misty eyes especially for suffering children....that was it till then
I used to think freepers talking about crying over their dead pug were just plain silly...now I know trust me..and I’ve had a lot of dogs in my life but that one got me and we have two rott pups now and a hog dawg coming and it’s just not the same to be honest
I’m boss dog in the pack but they are my rib’s dogs to be honest ....and hey adore her which suits me
She hopes this new hawg hunter bully will be mine ....he’s a son of one our old Scott bulldogs
My wife and I and our youngest just laid in bed that awful night and comforted one another most of the evening in utter shock...our baby boy was scared to be alone...it’s hard being little
Wifey took a Valium ...I just listened to Bach cello and felt like I lost my best pal
So when I hear folks here screaming for pit bulls and their owners to be shot..
That’s not the words of serious folks....that’s just wolf tickets nonsense....
Lashing out tough talk likely from inexperienced “tough” people
Sorry that’s how I see it
Scott bulldogs are tough hardy one owner dogs kind of... It’ll be interesting to see how the Rotts do with him.. When he matures at around 110 pounds they will give him a wide berth even though they are much larger Dog hierarchy if raised together usually finds its natural order It’ll surprise you though....sometimes it’s a little non guard dog or even a brood female
Yes, I have seen dachshunds, chihuahuas and papillions rule labs and and whole households.
One way. You said you wanted facts. Here they are. Now we don’t have to hear about it anymore,right?
Rrrrright.
That does sound similar to an article I saw. I am in the medical insurance industry so I get to see a lot of actuary tables and they interest me. Did you know that hang gliding and scuba diving have very similar risk profiles?
Interesting, and not unexpected. Have you attempted to obtain life insurance?
