What breed of dog(s) I have or don’t have is immaterial to your choice of descriptors.

Your choice of descriptors is rather revealing about you. Do you think often about other men’s *ahem* length?

[LongElegantLegs]

Can't we all just...Get along?

[GBA]

Beautiful!

[PLMerite]

“Your choice of descriptors is rather revealing about you.”

The bait you take reveals your shortcomings.

Over and out.

[wardaddy]

it’s hard to outrun most dogs anyhow

I mean Dobies are like Greyhounds with a T-Rex head attached ..on open ground they move out at a clip

even lumbering heavy Molassers can run for a while pretty quick

[LongElegantLegs]

That’s Java, my Dad’s springer, with Swiper.
He’s one of the most beautiful dogs I’ve ever seen, especially when he goes bounding through the high grass...Looks like he should be on the cover of a magazine. He’s also very gentle.

[wardaddy]

looks like someone did

for the record though I disagreed with Chet over Pits

His polling data threads at election time were pretty good and he was one of the few freepers not delusional that all polls were lying nor that they had all been inaccurate since Dewey Defeats Truman...Freepers only believe polls they want to

but I missed what you said...but looks like Mod snagged it

I think Chet tried to come back as someone...and I forget what got him banned...it wasn’t pit bulls...it was over Sarah Palin...just Googled it

anyhow...hey it’s a rather fluid sit-rep here at times

[Ditter]

I was speaking of something called Springer rage. My brother is a veterinarian and he took me in to the back of his kennel to show me a dog that he said had Springer rage. It was without a doubt the most beautiful Springer Spaniel I had ever seen but it was trembling with rage. He had to do some kind of surgery on it and he wasn't sure how he and
his employees were going to handle the dog.

The pit bull I am caring for temporarily right now is owned by a woman who has an advanced college degree and looks like Adriana Lima

so much for your Boys Lacking Big Willie Must Have Pit Bull Instead theory

those who are often the first to mention the vaunted Johnson on this board are frequently the guilty one

like a fart...”he who smelt it dealt it”

I’ll make it even worse for you...I also own a Porsche...the other notion likely to bring our penis envy comments

I got 5 kids...I’ve had no complaints...case you wuz worried bout my manhood

now if you are by chance Rocco Siffredi...who knew?...I bow in homage

:)

[wardaddy]

I would not stick my bare hands in any big dogs mouth...hit them on the nose cartilage is probably more effective

they bite so quick ...you would get chewed up

you can get them to lock onto something not fatal...like a pants leg...maybe

I have never been dog attacked...folks I know who deal with many big uncut aggressive male dogs...say a camp of hog hunting bullies...you’ve seen them on TV..with the neck guards...chasing down big hogs in SC or GA

those guys keep prods or axe handles or of course guns

if you have ever seen two dogs lock up...any bulldog locks up fighting...unless it’s the throat it’s not often fatal..between bullies that is

you have to pull them apart literally...you tie up the legs of each

and then water or prod them...in the heat of fight they can bite you too

this is not dog whisperer stuff and I would not have a child walk around unsupervised into a pack of 120 pound hog hunting performance bulldogs...nor would I have one laying around unsupervised an attack trained guard dog of any kind

but thwarting a pit bull attack bare handed is a tall order...nigh impossible for a small person

I am a big man, resounding voice and presence...dogs respect me..all well and good...I just know my way around them usually...many years of it...but with children or fearful adults it can be a whole new game...and dogs pick it up...some women can handle big dogs too...my ex girlfriend handled our big Rott boy...uncut and he saved her life from rape and possible murder from home invader.

My big male bully...gone hunting where he is better suited...was very protective of my wife and viewed her as a female..like big uncut males do..shamlessly but he adored her..not fear but love and protective..only time he snarled at me was once when I swatted her bare arse when she walked by in her dressing room..she of course thought he ruled the roost

[tnlibertarian]

I don't know, but a german shepherd did:
etc.

But the only one we hear about is the pit bull. So strange...

Did? Did what? Kill it's owner like the pit bull? Each of those stories is of a dog attacking and injuring a stranger. In not one did the victim die. Besides, how can you say "the only one we hear about" when you pulled each story from a newspaper's website?

[PLMerite]

“The pit bull I am caring for temporarily right now is owned by a woman who has an advanced college degree and looks like Adriana Lima”

Well, I was referring to the hip-hop and trailer trash who need big dogs to impress their peeps and their betters. You may get as exercised as you want about it but your efforts would be better spent finding the shift, comma and period keys on your keyboard.

“I also own a Porsche...the other notion likely to bring our penis envy comments”

These jokes just write themselves sometimes. I used the term “four-legged penis extension” to differentiate from the “four-wheeled” kind, which usually does mean a Porsche. An observation which is not original to me.

“I got 5 kids...I’ve had no complaints...case you wuz worried bout my manhood”

Your manhood is of no consequence to me, but I will throw an Eddie Murphy line at you, and I paraphrase: “small doesn’t mean broken.”

You are defined by what you see as bait.

Over and out.

[wardaddy]

You are defined by what you see as bait.

no..down south you are defined by the worm you place on the hook..and we don't have the Slingblade bridge joke down here for nothing

and since you mentioned it first

...seriously though...I understand some folks like lap dogs like some folks love cats...it's ok...but some of us...especially down here and not just white trash or black trash..like guard and serious sporting dogs...I just don't get lap dogs...either guard or maybe a nice quail or duck dog...blood dog for deer comes in handy too

I have two cats...they are ok....we have parallel lives You started it ..I can go as long as you want

For the first time in my life, I’m a little disappointed in you. It’s a Rocky Horror Picture Show reference.

It this case it fits perfectly with near 100% accuracy. Eliminating the breeders of vicious dogs does nothing to the existing population of vicious dogs.

(Odhinn is, of course not vicious)...

[no gnu taxes]

People can say it’s not the breed, it’s the owner, but I just don’t see many stories that go “man mauled by golden retriever.”

[null and void]

The pit bull lovers are sort of a strange lot,

Ain't that the truth.

We'll occasionally dogsit a small bunch of pits one of my roommate's rather odd lady female friends has.

[mojitojoe]

Always a good dog, never showed signs of aggression before, well behaved, blah blah blah blah. I am beginning to find it hard to have any sympathy for these ignorant a$$es that get these beasts. I feel immense remorse for the innocent baby that died because his father had to have a Pit due to SPS.

I wonder what the real statistics are. How many are actually attacked, bitten but it is never reported. I am sure it is hundreds of times more than what you hear in the news.

[Salamander]

Funny...I’ve had Dobes for 37 years *and* used to have a Porsche.

I don’t have a penis and can’t imagine “envying” them although I freely admit to ~definitely~ approving of them.

Which convenient little stereotyping box do I fit in?

:)

Although some hillbillies do keep ‘lap dogs’, our innate frugality and sense of purpose generally inclines us towards a dog who can earn its keep, somehow.

Currently, the breed I most covet is the Plott Hound.

Such an awesome and infinitely useful beast.

Same song, different day.
