True.

I accompanied my friend to a dog shelter to adopt a dog for himself. Like 90 percent of the dogs they had were Pit bulls.

Long story short, he adopts a sweet natured pit bull terrier mix, but returns the pit to the shelter about a year or so later (because the dog bared his teeth to one of my friends guests). I’m brokenhearted. So I go back to the shelter to adopt him myself. Best thing I ever did for myself.

Sweetest, most gentle dog ever. He made me so incredibly happy.

After owning him for 3 years, this past june he had to be put to sleep due to untreatable medical issues. He was 88 years old in human years. I’ve grieved every day since. I’ll miss him forever.

So you readopted the dog and it made you happy and didnt kill anyone. So your point is? You mean to imply it shouldnt have been put down the first time it hit the shelter. If so wrong!. Its not about you. Before shelter the humane society just gassed them all after 3 days. Now for every child mauled to death by PB there are 100 idiot bleeding heart women out there that want to save them. Idiots who know they are bad but take them to no kill shelters. Idiots who donate to no kill shelters too. Thats why you just cant go get a nice dog anymore cause they are full of PB or the famous “mix” another name for PB.
You PB lovers should count yourselves with the same crowd who thinks you can turn little boys into little girls.

Sorry for your loss. So hard to lose a loyal fur baby. You were very good to him.
