"I guarantee if you show up at my brothers house and threaten his Pit Bull chances are they will never find your body, and of they do it will not have dog bites on it"

Excellent characterization of a pit bull religionist.

"They should be shot. Then do something about their pit bulls."

Yep. If the police did their job of busting drug dealing trash, there wouldn't be any pit bulls.

” ... and threaten his Pit Bull chances are they will never find your body, and of they do it will not have dog bites on it”

Pit bull mentality.

It’s a trashy breed. You hear of these attacks on a regular basis. Should be easy to connect the dots.

The dogs aren’t the problem that needs to be dealt with in your brother’s house. They are just a symptom.

I provoked a typical response from the same gaggle of morons who show up here regularly pitching the same garbage...

LOL Love provoking all of you, too easy really

I have had many types of dogs from Doxies to Cane Corso Mastiffs and in between, and what you and your ilk here are proving is hatred for one breed of dog whom you all claim deserves nothing short of death

So if you decide to be judge and jury decisions have consequences. And I shared with you my brothers take on what will happen if you decide to kill his dog because of your hate.

Action, reaction

Enjoy your Hate, you all seem o really enjoy it, I bet you are a fun crowd to be around

My two year old 75 lb female is an incredible dog...

I've trained hunting dogs, pointers, and retrievers for years. Every pit bull I've ever encountered is an incredible dog. The one I have is an incredible dog. But, they are also dangerous dogs. They can hurt you without meaning to. And, one day, you will do something that dog won't like, and from that day on, it will be the boss. And, unless you know how to physically subdue and control a dog like that, you will have a big problem. The one I have has never been abused, or mistreated in any way. But, once he got to be about 5 years old, his attitude completely changed. It's like he has no patience for anything. It's his way, or else.

I take him to the vet once a year, and when he sees me coming with the muzzle, the fight is on. I have to wear the gloves and arm protection and literally bulldog him down to the ground to get the muzzle on him. From the time I put him in the car/truck to the time I get him home, he is literally drooling and foaming at the mouth he's so mad. Once we get to the vet, he has to be drugged to be examined and have his nails clipped.

All pit bulls require a helluvalot of exercise. Most don't get it, and it can make them irritable. The one I have plays well with other dogs, but he plays rough. I have to put him out in the yard to play with two German Short-hair pointers that outweigh him by 20 pounds. He will injure a smaller dog (and you) without meaning to. Anytime he even nips you, he draws blood. That's what makes pits dangerous. They can hurt you without trying. And, if/when the day comes they are trying to hurt you, you better be ready.

I understand why people have pit bulls, they are the only dog that
are even dumber than their owners.

Just curious, does the pit bull do sit, stay, no on command normally but just flips out when the muzzle comes out/vet ride?

Sure. He obeys many commands. But, that muzzle means something is up. I think to him it doesn't just mean a trip to the vet. It means being restricted in a way he doesn't like. He also doesn't like anyone touching his feet.

Not at all. They are one of the smartest breeds I've ever seen. That's one of the things that makes them dangerous.
