Youre totally full of shite
Oozing out your vapid pit bull hating brain
A bull mastiff is a molasser type big dog with many variations around the world including St Bernards and Pyrenees and other mastiffs and Rotts and so forth
A pit bull or staffie which btw is one of several catch style dog breeds used in England and the US historically for years is essentially a common terrier mixed with a bulldog
Thats what pit bulls originate from centuries ago
A mastiff is a big pit bull..lol
Youre a fool.
We people who own a Rotts and Dobies and Mastiffs and Dogos and Catahoulas and Shepherds and whatnot that might scare your snowflake ass aint giving em up and going to Yorkies and Maltese or some goofy Summers Eve commercial Golden Retriever loping through the meadow in the filtered sun glint
We own guard dogs cause we like it and if you dont then kiss my ass.
Its like black guns and race cars and loud pickups....if you dont like it then live where there arent any
And all you keyboard commandos who are gonna shoot my dogs on sight
Just try it
Bring your own body bags
You shoot my dogs(or my horses youre probably scared of horses too) and your life is in danger and where I live its be hard to convict me
Sometimes I wonder if Free Republic can get stupider and damn if it doesnt
Just so your dumb pit bull freaked out ass knows what a Molosser is

A dog made of molasses?
Country hick dogs might not be the best city slick dogs, too. There is such a thing as common sense.
Amen! There has been a dumbing down. I used to read the comments for insight, personal experiences, perspective from the freeper community. Lately I find myself just going directly to the linked article and bypassing comments.

Years ago we had two Rottweiler/Catahoula Leopard cross dogs that were bred to hunt wild boar and bear. We trained them extensively and kept them as pets and guard dogs. We live on a farm WAY out in the country. If these dogs hadn’t been well trained they could have done serious damage. The small one was over 120 pounds. We got both when they were 6-weeks old. They wouldn’t let anybody but us touch them and had to be muzzled to go to the Vet.
Guess what? Neither of these dogs ever bit anybody. They were so highly trained that if a person approached me they would sit at my feet and growl until the stranger stopped. If the stranger started coming toward me both would stand up and show teeth and raise hackles BUT, neither did anything more if I told them to stay. Since we were on a farm they ran loose but never left the property.
We thought we might have a problem when my granddaughter was born but both dogs fell in love with her and would have died to protect her. Still, she was NEVER left alone around either of them. Even as highly trained as they were no child should be left with a large dog due to the size difference.
The big one had to be put down because of bone cancer but the smaller one lived to be 16.
To me the difference is training, training, training, and lots of love.
A scary majority of people owning Pit Bulls and dogs like them are the wrong people that have bad intentions. The dogs are encouraged to be mean. They are never taught the difference between protecting and ravaging.
I have never owned a Pit but I have been around several that seemed to be big cuddle bugs. IMO, any dog over 50 pounds can be weaponized by mean indifferent people with bad intentions.
As a Vet tech many years ago I was around all kinds. I saw good friendly Pits and others that were not. All of them that were not were owned by chain wearing, gold tooth, types if you know what I mean. Several of the dogs were mistreated in my presence. Put a badly bred dog into the hands of a stupid mean gang banger type and you have a tragedy waiting to happen.
Butt hurt much Felicia? Keep your pit bulls, I hope you or your family don’t wind up a statistic. But otoh, a small wager in favor of it is a 1000x better bet than the lottery.
