(805 posts)Once I was thinking about your response and your other responses in this thread, I began to see your intent, which wasn't bad as I had originally thought. I do wish people were more thoughtful, even me sometimes. I understand some people are just afraid, after all we have enough fear mongering in the media and I can see how that would influence people. I being a huge animal lover, I learned for myself what I always believed anyway, which is most problem dogs either have a bad history with a former owner, or their present owner steered them wrong. I can not blame a dog for being, first an animal that doesn't know any better, and second being dealt a horrible disservice by their owner. But what one needs to realize is there are millions of other owners that do right by their dogs, no matter the breed, and you find pit bulls and other "bully" breeds can be wonderful dogs given a good pack leader. I just hate generalizations and went on the defensive which I did not mean to do to you. I do apologize to you for that.
People could learn a lot from you my dear!
