| BTW, stands for "by the way". And, yes Mowerman, this is the place to voice your opinion about pitbulls. You can most definited state your opinion and talk about your experiences here. Any time you want to have a debate or discussion about anything, start a thread in the members discussion forum or under Issues & Causes. We need to be sensitive to the people posting their questions and that we are here to answer those specific questions posed. Just as you have done in appliances or lawn & garden. We are not allowed to get off topic on a thread and just voice our opinions. It is frowned upon by the owners of this web site.
As an aside, I read your update regarding your attack when you were 3 years old. You may not have been alone, but the fact that the owner of the dog allowed people to walk through his salvage yard when he had a trained attack dog on the premises was so incredibly irresponsible on his part. That dog should have been confined with other people present/visiting. One thing that might interest you is that when a dog is used for protection of property and trained to attack, they react to "interlopers" of their area just like a wild dog would. He was protecting his territory. What he saw was a pack situation with all of you walking in a line within his territory, and he attacked the most vulnerable of that pack.
I am not going to get into a debate with you regarding pitbulls. I have already said my piece on this post and on other posts. You are entitled to your opinion. |
