My pit is the sweetest dog I’ve ever had. The breed hate that people have toward them is heart wrenching.
At one time i was one of those people afraid of pitbull’s and my son got his i fell in love. Now i have 2 pitts and a cane corso mix pit love them to the moon and back. Good job pirate happy for both of you
Hello pretty 😍,, how are you doing with all due respect can we be friends if yes kindly follow me thank you 😊
That dog has no pedigree therefore its not a breed therefore its not a pitbull
Pittie mom of 2 as well, they are the best and funniest characters and always get a shitty reputation due to peoples misinformation. 🐶🐶
@@cathys4376 they get a bad reputation because everyone calls everything a pitbull and when they attack the media does the same. Learn what a pitbull is
@@maddogsenglishmen8020 What a strange response. You sound quite obsessive. I would recommend going out and making some friends or something. You'll be happier than obsessively posting on pitbull comments. Really mate, nobody cares.....
I just got my first pitte a year ago and I'll tell you she has the sweetest nature ever. And she's super smart ❤️❤️❤️
@@chrisshelp1172 what are you saying ,? She's the sweetest dog I ever had and I had plenty
Have children so they too can enjoy this beautiful dog.
This happened to me last week: I live in NYC and I was standing in the park with a friend who owns an Afghan Hound. Both dogs were on leash, but when a guy rode by on his bike the Hound jumped up and nipped him in the thigh as he was passing. The guy, stopped, looked back at us, then got off his bike to check his thigh for damage.
I held both leashes while my friend went over to talk to the guy. When she came back she said she was shocked - she asked the guy if he was ok, and he pointed at my dog, shouting “that pit bull bit me!” My friend’s jaw dropped, and she said “It was the Afghan Hound - the pit bull had nothing to do with it!”
The stigma is so strong that people can’t see reality past their bias. Meanwhile my pit bull is so sweet the guy could have ridden his bike right over my dog and my dog wouldn’t get aggressive, but he’s blamed anyway just for being present.
I am so sorry you had such a devastating experience. Some humans can be ever so cruel and uneducated. That person was so quick to judge. What a sad way to go through life. Yes, sadly the stigma is so strong. I struggle to understand such ignorance. Pitbulls are one of the most docile and tender dogs. I feel sorry for those that will never get to experience such sweethearts. 🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦❤️🥰🥰
@@bohochic2459 It was maddening, but when I adopted my boi (it will be 5 years next month) I made a point of being very visible with him around town - now everyone knows him as an individual. So a bunch of us meet in the park with our dogs every morning (I have the only pit bull) and when the owner of the Afghan told the group what happened, everyone expressed disbelief, then in unison went to pet my dog and apologize to him! He has just been standing there minding his own business when all of a sudden 5 people were showering him with love at the same time. So he decided to milk it and roll over for belly rubs 😂
The good news is that my boi is so well loved in the neighborhood. When people say how lucky I was to get “a good one”, I tell them that he’s like the overwhelming majority of “pit bulls” - it’s the ones that get vicious (often in reaction to past abuse or neglect) who are the outliers.
That dog in your picture is not a pitbull and neither is the dog In the video. You cannot take real pitbulls to the dog park.
As a dog coach: Training should be fun for both you and your dog! It should be a bonding experience between the both of you. You’re a fantastic dog owner!!
My pitty came from a bad background and is the best girl on earth. We have video of her leading ducklings out to the yard and protecting them in a kiddie pool then leading them back in on command. My lab is 10x more shady :)
@@babyruuth 🫶 & 😂 “shady”
Hi 👋🏻 how’re you doing am Mary from California and you , trying to connect with community of business minded people who are interested in earning consistent income weekly.I love your page 😍 dm if you are interested
I agree your giving your dog the best life ever you and him are having such fun together with the training..and bonded so well ...i just wish everybody treated their pittie like you , you are oviously a very good repsonsible owner..where i heard some people ive known of live in my area have dogs like pitbuls and are aggressive and hit their dogs but they dont deserve such a beautiful breed ... and use these dogs are more like a show peice,s to a certain men..to give them a sense of power as they are the ones that give these dogs the bad reputation..some young men do unfortunately train their dogs to be fightning and aggressive which is so sad as they dont deserve.. them..
Definitely, I agree. I love dogs, I've rarely seen a really "bad" dog.
Sadly, I've seen lots of definitely bad dog owners. The agressiveness of their dogs is a direct answer to the habots of their owners.
Pitbulls aren't "bad by design". They need a responsible, loving and caring owner.
Pirate and Asha are best example, how beautifull that works.
Dogs are no fashion dummies one can place somewhere in the living room for showing off.
They are living entities with a character, a soul and they have their needs.
I beg everyone out there:
Don't just go and buy a sweet little puppy.
Think about it for a week, Remember it will grow bigger, it has needs you will have to fulfill.
Think again. Is your house, apartment or whatever big enough? Do you have enough free time for your dog?
Can you pay for food and if necessary a vet?
And the most important point:
Never, never ever go to a breeding mill because they are cheap.
Look out for a reponsible breeder who can tell you what your new dog will ned.
Or even better: Go to a shelter. There are really enough poor souls there wanting a home and a loving family.
1:23 and 2:01 AW something about seeing all of these pitbulls in cute outfits training to change a baseless stereotype makes my heart so happy 🥺❤️
Baseless stereotype lol
Pit bulls are 6 percent of the north American dog population but are responsible for 62 percent of fatal dog attacks on humans
He is so smart! Lots of love to Pirate; Who needs that stuffy old doggy park? He is having such an exciting life!
I've been told countless times by family and friend how viscous their pitties are. Every time. Literally. They've all warmed up to me instantly
Love Pirate. What a gorgeous coloring. 😍
We had two when our daughter came along and they both protected her like she was their puppy. Neither was aggressive to her or anyone in our family ever and when we had our son, they both watched over him too. They are both gone now but we talk about them both even today.
It's so awesome that you took a negative experience and turned it into a positive outlook. Showing everyone how awesome pit bulls are and having fun while doing so! I love pit bulls and have two pit mix fur kids!
Hello .. How are you doing
What a beautiful pooch. He looks so much like my late pittie Ladybug. Go Team Pirate!!!!
I just think Pit bull Dogs are the best, I've had 2 in my life and loved them so much. Now I'm 64 years old and thinking about getting another Pit. Thanks for speaking up for the most misunderstood dog breed there is. In memory of Max & Cooney.
Yes! We need to make training your dog a cool trend or something so everyone will do it. I work with animals and my first job all my managers had pit bulls. Training is essential for any dog and especially for high energy ones. I've worked with amazing pit bulls and I've worked with awful ones. Owners can really make or ruin a dog, and some well-meaning people get these dogs and don't put any work into them and then therefore further the stereotype of "bad pit bulls". It makes me so mad, b/c they're the type of owner that would ruin any dog by their lack or training, leadership and lack of boundaries. Some many "covid puppies" (any breed) are now adult dogs that are nightmares to be around b/c of their lack of training and socialization. Obviously people and dogs can't be perfect but I commend anyone that even tries to train their dog!!
You give love to a pitbull and you will get ten times more love back. All they want is pets, cuddles, and attention. Very athletic dogs, but can be lazy and sleep a lot. Temperament is almost that of a precious lil kid who loves their parent.
Hes so awesome and very handsome ❤❤❤❤
TEAM PITBULL!!!!!!! YES!!! GO PIRATE!!! THANKYOU FROM, VINELAND,N.J.
he is so gorgous hes so lucky to have you, don't let any ignorant human make you cry about your dog again, probably they wish it was theirs, i love pitbulls, i wish we had some in the uk, but we have our own version and they are gorgous
What a beautiful dog!
Never had the chance of having a pittie since all my dogs are strays that we rescued nearby, but hopefully one day I will be able to adopt one 😊 they are such amazing doggos, I wish you could now shove those awesome accomplishments onto that stupid woman's face who kicked you both from the park
You don't adopt a pitbull....you buy one...you adopt a mutt
A lot of the dogs you'll find at a rescue usually have some pit in them. Think the most common mix is a Labrador/pit mix. They're great dogs and sometimes have a humanlike personality, never seen it before with another breed yet(very smart dogs/love to learn). Backyard breeders have created a huge supply of rescues and they're usually the ones to get put down first. Really sad bc they're a great breed.
@@JonFontana24 a mix is not a breed
@@michaeljones1133 reading comprehension is something you lack obviously.
@@JonFontana24 you just called a lab pit mix a breed
My niece adopted a female pitty that had obviously been used for breeding and even though Lola looked intimidating at first meeting she was the sweetest thing. She loved my dad who was in his 80's. One time I kept her over the weekend while my niece went to a festival and it rained one night and Lola jumped on the sofa with me for safety and I ended having to spoon with this huge dog cause she was so frightening. My brother and Lola would do Micky D's drive through and both get a hamburger for a snack. Lola will always be missed.
It is so sad that pit bulls have a bad rep. When the reality is it all comes down to the owner. I had a pitbull and she was absolutely friendly and gorgeous. I love that pirate is such a great dog because he has a great owner! Sending my love to the both of them in hopes that things get better.. ❤️❤️
Yes, good owners make great pets. I have no problem with Pit bulls as long as the owner has control. I love my dogs but the bad reputation comes from Pit bulls not under the control of their owners.
Calling every mutt a pitbull doesn't help the reputation
Those fools, if they did their homework they would know that they have such a bad reputation because there owners treat them horribly and badly to make them in to fighting dogs sense they were pup’s that’s simple science for you
@@redrebel3288 AMEN well said!
I LOVE HES BREED I LOVE THEM THER CUTE
you are crazy , a lovely crazy, we need people like you , pit bull lovers,
Most misunderstood dog breed. been around pit bulls all my life. never had an issue. most loving dogs i ever had.
Pit bulls are so vastly misunderstood they’re wonderful dogs ❤
Pittie's are lovable fuzz balls.
I just live your story!!! I also believe that the most important thing is the bond between owner and dog. My Rottweiler was also eager to please - the owner plays a very big role
Pirates human looks and sounds like Emily Blunt!! Lucky boy!!👍👍
U r so much lucky ......to get d love of thisss...loveble doggy..I also felt in love
Way to turn people's negative reactions to a positive. 😊 You got this, Pirate. 🎉
I was going to my local dog park until I was bitten pretty bad. There's sooooo many other breeds that are more aggressive than pittys staffies. Now I just go to the dog beach. Cleaner, more peaceful. Roxy just loves it there, so do I and the people and dog seem to be nicer as well.
Pitbulls are sweet. Ive only seen a few attacks but they are sweet
People are wrong about this breed. They are a beautiful breed and a a good one to have.
You are beautiful and your dog is so handsome. I have a pitty and I love her sooooo much.
sweet boy !!!
I'm a dog sitter/walker that has taken care of pits, rottweilers, dobermans, you know the "scary" breeds and also smaller breeds, the only dog that ever bit me was a chihuahua that bit me on the calf, that same dog also tried to pick a fight with a rottweiler. A family member at one time had a chihuahua and a German shepherd, the chihuahua used to mess with the shepherd. All of the breeds that people fear have been big sweet babies that would rather curl up in my lap and snuggle. I even sat for someone that had a pit and a cat, the cat used to snuggle with the pit in his dog bed. My sister rescued a pit that was one day away from being put down by the shelter, he's a big sweet couch potato.
I can't believe that pitties still get such a bad rap when they've proven over and over how nice they can be ( and most are). Any dog can be vicious, it isn't about the breed. Thank you for being a great dog mom and taking the time to work with him to let him shine for himself and for the breed. What you've done is awesome.
theres just a bunch of statistics. In the state theyre 5 pct of dogs and are responsible for 78 pct of dog bit FATALITIES. You're insane if you think the fear of pits is unjustified.
What a great dog good boy ❤🇺🇸
I go by my friends Brian saying. Pits aren't bad but the humans who raise them to be fighting and killers are. Pirate was raised right. Much love from Ohio.
So damn cute. The dog too.
From a babe I was with pitbulls. My mom literally used them as nanny dogs love them
Dog is like I so want to all the mean people
CERTIFIED G'BOY!
I have the same issue with my pittie at the fod park when it’s the huskies that are aggressive
What we need to start to teach people is that it isn't the breed that causes aggression. It is the environment, the owners, and the training, or lack of training in some cases.
Each dog should be treated as an individual. Some dogs will naturally be more aggressive no matter their breed. That sometimes comes down to environment, sometimes it comes down to the owners, or a mixture of the two.
My dachshund that I use to have was normally very chill and relaxed. We had a very relaxed environment so anything that disturbed that would cause him to be on alert, especially since we lived at the end of a dead end street in the country. He only really got aggressive if someone tried messing with me when I was asleep. He was being protective while I slept.
That is a situation where the environment and technically the owner were the reason for the aggression. He was reacting to someone trying to wake me up which he perceived as someone attacking me.
We need to get people to start understanding things like this as it will go a long way into helping stop negative biases towards breeds like Pitties.
Way to go Pirate !!!!!
❤❤❤❤❤😊
Sorry Pirate, some people are catastrophic jerks, just ignore the haters, that's the only way to deal with them. Nice work Asha and Pirate, great team!!!
My ROSIE❤❤❤ Pit Bull✌😉👆
Dogs don't need all this training,just love him..and you are sharing YOUR life online, NOT Pirates,he is a dog and just wants a nice home with love.people try to become you tube "stars" using pets as a
prop
It happens to most pitbull owners. You'll get used to it. Just love your boy, and don't be so concerned about what others think about him. Enjoy your time with him. I'm still mourning the loss of my pitbull. It's been a year now, and I can't think of him without crying.
I once met a pittie on a bus with the cutest face. She and her dad sat right behind the driver, and so many people were scared to even see her, they got in at the back door. They didn't care that she was so well behaved. At some point I actually went over there and made contact with her. She was so happy to get pets from sommeone other than her dad! She almost climbed into my lap right there and then, but obeyed immediately when I said "no". Too bad they had to get off two stops from there. To this day I think of her and it makes me smile. Hope she and her dad arre living their best lives!
I had a similer event happen to me. An older gentlemen and his dog got on the bus. The dog was a pittie. The fear that passed through the bus was notable. So I asked him how his day was going and how his dog was doing. He sat down, His dog sat down next to him.
I decided to make contact with the dog, she was happy to receive my attention. But she did not move. She was a well trained young lady.
Wherever she and her companion are... I hope they are well. :)
Whenever I walk my pit around town and people gasp or jump out the way, I literally look at them and say “stop acting like a pu**y, he’s more friendly than any human you know”.
Some people say nothing back, some have smart remarks bc they feel offended I called them out for being soft served.
Think of it this way, if someone’s scared of a pit bull, they can’t protect their family against any intruder.
Maybe not put a historically aggressive dog on the bus at the front entrance. It's your ego and self-righteousness that causes issues.
Uneducated stupid people
But are dogs allowed on buses? Was it a service animal? Some people are legit scared of dogs in general-a phobia or a past traumatic experience-and if you have to walk within ankle biting distrance or you feel he could lunge up at any moment-these are total strangers-you can’t know their demeanor or the dog’s or the amount of training just getting on a bus. I would be surprised and nervous too.
You gotta love pirates winning smile 😃. He's a good boy. He's fortunate to have a mom that cares and loves him unconditionally. Go pirate !!!!!
I was expecting a big slobbering kiss in the car right before the end. Then it happened at the end haha. Awesome!
I used to tell people to watch out, our pittie “couldn’t hold his licker “ ( pun intended) he licked and kissed and loved everyone and all dogs big and small! So so smart. Best dog I’ve ever had. Pirate is an amazing ambassador due to his sweet personality and your hard work. Keep it up!
My boy does the same thing! He gets super excited and loves to kiss everyone, but he ends up either getting too excited and sticking his teeth up your nose or he slips a tongue in you mouth lol
My dog also love to lick
We call it "mouth raping". I warn everyone coming over that he will/issues going to stick his tongue in the your mouth and you better be ready. Most are not, even though they say they are. It's the owner, not the breed that dictates their attitude. I'd be more scared of a Chihuahua than a pitbull depends on how they got raised. Bully breeds for life!

You hit the nail on the head! I suspect people who discriminate against dogs based on their appearance are the same ones who discriminate against humans.
Girlfriend, my pitbull was probably one of the " scariest " looking pit bulls ever. She had a beautiful walk, she had the movement of a panther ... 💓☺️
People were terrified of her, but she literally thought everyone on this earth existed just to pet her ... 😁
My dog Powder is the reason my cousin has gotten over her life long fear of pitbulls.
So, keep on keeping on cause your dog can change people's hearts & minds ... God bless ... ☺️💓
Mine looks like a rhino when he trots. Lol
@@Ventura574 I know exactly the one & it's awesome too !!! 😋☺️
The scary looking ones are the biggest lovers that I've seen
My two rat terriers always play with the Pitties at the park. My older dog knows the word "Pittie" and will stop to scan for one if I say it. One of their best pals is a really energetic, loud, and muscular Pit Bull, Tank, that strangers see as scary right up until they either pet them or see my boys playing with him. They have probably helped change some minds on Tank and other Pitties and I'm glad they have.
@@mtnman1984 I bet minds have been changed because of y'all & Tank. That's so cool ! God bless ... 💓☺️
He needs to get a vest and wear his ribbons everywhere. He’s adorable. Good for you for training him.
I was thinking she should carry them around for Pirate like wear a sash with them all or something! 😍🐕
Sew his ribbons onto a big vest for him!
I loved everything about this video: Pirate, Pirate’s mom, her investment in training him, his pure joy of life. And the quality of the video was superb. Thank you everyone!!
Great job Pirate and his mom. Pit Bulls are just like other dogs. They are loving and wanted to be loved.
I loved everything except the beginning when she was crying that was so sad 😭
She is not his mother. She's his owner. His mother is probably licking her own genitals right now or eating her own poop.
@@coolpoolbymatthew
Nothing more tragic than the whole world not bending over backwards for a hot girl every once in a great while.
I loved everything about this video except when dog licks your mouth. It looks disgusting and also it is not hygienic.
Cat guy here - anyone with a soul can clearly see that boy doesn’t have a mean bone in his body. What a sweetheart.
You can't see the soul of anything. PitBulls are the most aggressive breed, and have been banned from many areas for a reason. The data suggests that they are a danger, because they are responsible for the most vicious attacks on humans and other pets.
@@AtillatheFun A pit just killed a sons mother. But most Pits are good natured. Rotts German sheps dobies and other breeds have killed humans.
@@AtillatheFun I did rescue work for 3 years in high school and I have been living in a neighborhood full of dogs I have yet to meet an "aggressive" pit bull. I've met scared Pitties but never an aggressive one. In fact, the Doberman in our neighborhood is a shy big sucky baby and that shows that it's all on the owner on how the dog comes out. The only dog I have been bit by was a Frenchie that was trying to grab on to something as they fell off a couch. The Rottweiler that lived here wanted nothing but to sit on your lap and to be held like a baby. Cats can be aggressive too especially if they are declawed because you've taken away their way of telling you that they don't like something and are left with no choice but to bite. It all depends on the owner.
@@AtillatheFun did you know that a lot of pittie accidents are actually caused by humans? Pitties are no more aggressive than any other dog breed, they just have a bad reputation which causes them to fall into the wrong hands. A lot of pitbulls and other bully dogs are owned by people who got them because of their reputation. They get pitties with the hope of having an aggressive dog, which causes them to not train the dog properly or even train it to be aggressive. A properly trained pittie is no more dangerous than any other dog breed.
The reason many pittie attacks end badly is because they have extremely strong jaws, not because they are aggressive. A pittie bite is more fatal than for example a shitzu bite. It’s not about “natural aggression.” Pittie attacks are also more likely to get on the news BECAUSE of their reputation. Nobody cares about a golden retriever biting it’s owner. But everybody cares about a pittie biting it’s owner because they want to “prove” that the stereotype is correct.
A lot of pittie accidents are also caused by the carelessness of humans. Many pittie news are about how “a pittie bit a child when the parents left for a few minutes.” Yeah, that’s on the parents. You should NEVER leave ANY dog alone with a small child. And in these situation we usually don’t even know what really happened for the dog to bite the child. Any dog will bite a child if the dog is getting bullied by the child.
TL;DR the bad reputation that pitties have causes pitties to get more mistreated by their owners, which causes them to be more “aggressive.” They are not naturally aggressive, they are just badly trained.
@@ssr8555 You do realize that they are bred to be aggressive. Their entire purpose was to be aggressive, and actual data, not random anecdotes, proves this point. Cities are banning them due to the unnecessary risk they pose.
Inspired how the pittie’s mom turned her tears into action!
You're inspired...?!? 😆😆😆
That dog has no breed
@@maddogsenglishmen8020 Kinda like YOUR lineage.
@@_Ben4810 What's funny?
@@suchabadkitty1293 I'm pure like my dog 😉
This pup has a good, caring owner. They aren't all like that. Not everyone trains, socializes, or even exercises common sense.
The FIRST TIME my dog was attacked by a pitbull at the dog park, the pitbull was already in the park, and unbeknownst to me, had already been in three minor skirmishes with other dogs. I walked in, sat down on a bench, and my dog sat down beside me. The pitbull strolled up and seemed friendly enough, so I patted him on the head. My dog stood up to greet and sniff, like dogs do, and the pitbull jumped on him and locked his jaws around his throat, growling and shaking. It took a lot of effort to get him off of my dog. Miraculously, my dog's injuries were minor. What was the pitbull's owner doing during all of this? Nothing; just standing there. Turns out she had just gotten the pitbull from the animal rescue THAT DAY, joined the dog park, and threw him in there with about 20 other dogs without really knowing what would happen.
Like I said, it's got a lot to do with the owner.
i hope she doesn't have that dog anymore, because of her idiotic actions that dog couldve gotten animal control called on it and even worse been put down for that ladies poor decisions, you should never take a dog outside with other dogs or even people at that without knowing how theyd react first hand, you should always try to train the dog basic social skills first then see from AFAR how it reacts to another dog and then get them close to another dog while still being present to make sure nothing happens then if the dog is cool enough to play with other dogs without being aggressive in anyways then it can be free to play with supervision still of course, but throwing a freshly RESCUED dog into a dog park with others knowing that dog couldve had past trauma of some sort is begging for disaster, this is a wild guess but if the dog was rescued it was perhaps in dog fighting which couldve explained the sudden attack, again thats just my guess im prolly way off and the dog just hasnt been socialized enough or was prolly stressed from being freshly rescued but whatever the case the lady should get the dog taken from her
hope your dog is okay. it's sad your dog got attacked by another dog.
but i kinda feel that even if it weren't a pittie, the other dog would've still reacted the same, given the stressful situation.
Cool. My dog got attacked by a chihuahua and a great dane. you dont see me screaming at those people to leave parks with their dogs. Get over it.
@@carolgreen9648 You're right, I don't see you screaming at anyone, I don't know who the heck you are! 😉 I love pitbulls, I used to own a pitbull mix. I have a lot of respect for the breed. My dog has been attacked on four different occasions and it's been a pitbull every time. Twice at the dog park, twice on neighborhood walks. I've never faulted the pitbull, always the owner. Both times at the dog park, the pitbull was poorly socialized. Both times in the neighborhood, the pitbull was off leash.
@@moemoee9787 I hope the dog wasn't put down. It certainly wasn't human aggressive. It just needed guidance and time to adjust.
Humans do this to other humans, so its no surprise we do it to dogs.
Pirate is awesome. He's welcome at our dog park anyday!❤🐶
Pirate rocks! That woman was ridiculous and just shows how horrid humans can be. If humans were more like dogs we would spend less time warring and more time loving and being loved. Team Pit Bull all the way!
This is literally racism hahahhaaha
Pit Bulls accounted for 284 deaths. That's a staggering 65% of all dog-related deaths, with 473 Americans killed between 2005 and 2017.
@@joerubio3391 Don’t know if that’s true but pit bulls raised to be mean are mean. Left to their own development, pit bulls are sweet loving and loyal. Give them a chance and you will find it is the humans not the dog that makes a dog mean.
I agree. Nasty woman. All dogs especially pit bulls deserve Loving Kindness and Compassion. I Love Pirate! If only dogs and other animals could rule the world instead of us humans.
Owners that refuse to admit that Pitbulls pose an added danger to other dogs... are the problem. (You can't blame the dog)
What a great pair. Dogs are a reflection of their owners. Pirate shows his love and affection for her, as she does for him.
I've always believed that. Dogs ARE a reflection of their owner. Bad people invaded the pitbull breed because of their muscle mass & strength & trained (tortured!) >their< pitbulls to be mean guard dogs & dogs to be feared when they were by their owner's side. The attacks of those aggressive dogs made the news & the grape vine & that's how they got their reputation for being mean. We should be angry that people with bad intentions stole this breed's reputation for being a goofy, loving dog & made so many afraid of them when it's not their fault! Same way the beautiful German Shepherd breed got their bad rep - as people saw the heroic actions they were trained to carry out in bringing down a suspect people stopped seeing >their< loving qualities as a pet & are afraid of this bread too. What people did/do the Doberman Pinscher is horrible too! I'm not sure of their past...but, people cut off their EARS & TAILS so they look lean & intimidating!! That's severely abusing that sweet animal for the owner's EGO & pleasure IMO! They call this "docking" - I guess to make it sound like a procedure they're "supposed to do" so they don't feel horrible & guilty for doing this to their PET who is totally & completely dependent on them! Look up a Doberman that hasn't had their ears & tails off - they look like a beautiful hound dog with their floppy ears & long tail!
Sorry I've rambled on...but, people stealing an animal's reputation due to man's desire to control them & make >their< dog mean...is AWFUL. It's up to US to look down upon those ABUSIVE OWNERS....& NOT these poor loving, goofy, majestic dogs!

In that time I had all but one of my dogs adopted…123, it was a great feeling seeing them get their forever homes. And I had people come back to me to rescue another pup when theirs passed. Only God can make something and so loyal,loving and sweet. Thank you 🙏🏻
That dog has no pedigree or bloodline therefore its not a breed therefore its not a pitbull
Yes, some pits can be good dogs. 👍
I watched your video and cried at the beginning when you left the dog park. I was frustrated and angry for you. However, everything happens for a reason- look at what you and Pirate have accomplished as a result of that horrible day!!!!!! Spectacular journey you both have been on. So fulfilling for you, fun times for Pirate and educating the public about pitties. And making new friends. You both are deserving of a huge congratulations!!!!!
I'm a fan and have been following Pirate for a few years now. Hearing that this happened to these 2 is heartbreaking. I'm so sorry you had to go through this and hope nothing similar happens ever again. I'm sending love and hoping to meet you both someday! Stay strong!!
There will always be prejudiced people, cleaving to media reports and single source statistics to support their uninformed bigotry.
I recently offered my sympathies to Pirate's owner, and '@Black Sun' tried to 'hand me my own arse', in his/her arrogant ignorance.
Hi 👋🏻 how’re you doing am Mary from California and you , trying to connect with community of business minded people who are interested in earning consistent income weekly.I love your page 😍 dm if you are interested
I have raised pits for over 35 years in Hawaii and none of my dogs were aggressive because of the time and love I have given them.I continue to raise them with Aloha also blame the deed not the breed much Aloha goes out to you and Pirate to be good ambassadors of the Pittie pride!
Then you should know that dog is not a pitbull...it's a mutt
@@maddogsenglishmen8020 not an APBT, but a pix mix/pit-like nonetheless. The dog is still being discriminated against whether or not he's a "real pit", so it doesn't fucking matter, he's treated like one anyway.
@@exist4046 well real pitbulls shouldn't be at the dog park and she's going around saying it's a pitbull. She's not doing herself herself any favours
I've never disliked or feared pitties, they were just another dog breed to me. But videos like these make me absolutely adore them
Just tell 'em, "Yes, I know they're similar, but this is a Staffordshire Terrier. He's a sweety."
So called pitbulls actually are Staffordshire Terriers.
@@veramae4098 that’s a mix dog . The only and real Pit Bull is the APBT (American Pit Bull Terrier) .
@@veramae4098 The Staffordshire Bull Terrier and the American Staffordshire Terrier are what they are
@Link Link Dude , I was a member of the ADBA Club . The ADBA Club became the second register for the APBT ( American Pit Bull Terrier) in 1909 . My dogs were off Tants Yellow ( Gr Ch Yellow) and Chavis Yellow John. Those are real pit bulls. So why I have to watch anything
@Link Link 99% of dog attacks are mixed dogs mislabeled as pit bulls . Even the dog in this video is not a Pit bull .Those mutts on Pit Bull Unleashed are not Pit Bulls either
Love, love, love this. My neighbors had a pitty that they let roam throughout the neighborhood. She LOVED people. I lived alone and two doors down from them and occasionally, while watching tv, I’d hear a scratching at my door. It was my part-time dog Sadie. She would stay for a couple commercial breaks, give me lots of kisses, and then she decided it was time to go. I had just been through a divorce and was very broken. I think she knew I needed her. GO PIRATE!
To me, dogs and kids both reflect the emotional atmosphere of the homes they're raised in. Where there's anxiety and confusion, there's anger. Where there is patience and kindness, there's love.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Over 700 U.S. cities in 40 states have enacted bans of the Pitbull.
❤❤❤❤
Right on the nose!!!

What a joy to see you and Pirate out-loving & winning against stereotypes with his total adorableness! I grew up with a sweetie pie German Shepherd, my Frieda, whom I still miss over 3 decades later & never learned to fear pit bulls or other stereotyped dogs like German Shepherds and Rotties. I always loved their cute faces and personalities. I was raised that dogs are a reflection of the way their humans treat them & have never seen that lesson proven wrong. Pirate is proof that love always wins in every way. Good luck and many more wins to your both!
German shepherds bite more people than pit bulls ha. But they are awesome too!!!
What a wonderfully trained dog! He has a great personality and attitude. You couldn't get a better doggie than that!
Pirate looks so friendly and happy to be alive.
I remember when you adopted him and the joy he had.
Many people don't know that one of the characters on the old show, "The Little Rascals" was a pit bull named "Pete." He was constantly surrounded by children and was a great dog.
The RCA mascot was also a pittie.
People also don't know that at one time, pits were bred to be working dogs on farms to protect the livestock from predators.
Everyone who's seen Little Rascals knows about the pit bull.
@@NunayoBisnez yeah but they’re right ppl seem to forget about it , like so many people hate on pit bulls but love the little rascals and have NEVER put the two together 🥴
@@NunayoBisnez how many people under the age of 50 do you know have seen those old shows? Very few. I can bet that majority of millennials have heard of the show, but never watched any of it.
Pete was poisoned to death & his owner/ handler was murdered! I read an article that said those kids hated that dog because it would bite.
I have a 110 pound Rottweiler who wherever we go is the best trained and most socialized dog there. I’ve had people try to demand I leave as well but considering I’m 6’6 240 pounds it doesn’t go so well for them.
My neighbor had a pittie. Super friendly dude and very sweet. He used to jump over to our side of the yard and just chill. I'd go outside and sit with him and he'd come up to me for some cuddles.

I have a friend who had a red pitbull. She was the sweetest dog ever. I would lay back on the recliner, and she would come running in, jump, on me full body, and lick my face. The "problem" dog was my rescue Yorkie who hated every dog she met (even after intensive training - but she loved ALL people!) Pit bulls are like people.. every one is different and should be judged on their own merits. What a great thing you and Pirate have done !❤️😁
Except the evidence clearly points to a problem with this breed.
The problem has never been the breed it’s the irresponsible and ignorant owners
@@nactrell4894 The problem has been , people mislabeling dogs . That’s not a pit bull either
I swear every pitbull I've met looks at you with almost a smile and eyes that melt your heart. Give them some love and they'll pay you back with interest
I was confused by the word interest I thought you meant interested xDp
Nothing beats coming home to the unconditional love of a good boy
It's not a pitbull
Let the haters hate! Pirate is so gorgeous and so smart!!! You are doing a great job of bringing awareness to the breed!!! 😘
That’s not even a pit bull.
Yes! Awesome
We’re building an army. An army that will make shitbulls and their owners extinct.
Its not about haters hating. They can be sweet. They can also have pasts that make them vicious. Just depends.
@@rawjan39 Yes, it is. Educate yourself.
He doesn’t care if everyone is mean to him. He only needs your love and that’s what means the world to him. Such an adorable Pittie!
I literally have tears in my eyes at how precious this is. I have two pitties and I go through this everyday. They want to play with everyone and they almost break a hip trying to get away from them. Congratulations Sir Pirate. You are an absolute angel.
I sincerely hope you train your dogs properly. Untrained pitbulls are dangerous.
@@AquaticStarchild My dogs are very well trained. Have been since they were puppies. ANY untrained dog can be a dangerous dog. Let's not forget that
@@AquaticStarchild *any untrained dog is potentially dangerous. Doesn't matter if they're a toy poodle or a Rottie, they're still a potential risk to those handling them
@@madonnahoskins6643 Pitbulls are responsible for a vast majority of serious dog attacks. The numbers speak for themselves.
This rhetoric of yours is literally dangerous. You can't apply some woke liberalism towards different dog breeds, some of them are really dangerous because they've been bred as guard dogs. They are not docile lapdogs. Stop treating all dogs as if they were bred equal. Pitbulls are a dangerous breed and the attacks prove it.
Why you crying over a damn dog as if it's a human? You need to get a life.
As posted elsewhere, some of us have had terrifying experiences with pit bull type dogs. We had neighbors who were pretty careless about their pit bulls, who attacked my aging parents out on a walk. In a different neighborhood, a loose pit bull got between me and my 4-year old daughter, growling, barking, and acting very aggressively. By the size of him, he could have easily killed my daughter. When I complained, the owner said the dog was "protecting his property" even though we were on the sidewalk going to the bus stop to pick up my other child from school. These experiences last a long time! I realize these bad experiences are the owner's fault but those people at the dog park don't know which one you are, a good owner or a bad owner. I do feel bad for Pirate, though, as he looks like a total darling.
Sad to hear. Sorry you had to go through those things. Some people really do want a "scary" dog, for whatever stupid reason. They will of course favor breeds that people are already afraid of, thereby creating a self-fulfilling prophecy. Same thing could of course potentially happen with any large breed, if the dog in question is forced into that role.
That must have been terrifying. What a jerk, undoubtedly he encouraged his poor dog to be like that. Reminds me of a neighbour I had as a kid. He use to take his rottweiler to the park, and laugh when it growled at kids. He thought it made HIM tough, because his dog scared people. Everyone took great joy at his humiliation when he realized the symbol of his manhood was TERRIFIED of my tiny tabby.
Unfortunately too many people who get pitbulls either don't know what they're doing, or WANT an aggressive dog. All dogs require strength, consistently, and kindness to lead them, and the majority of dog owners don't give them this.
It's understandable people who aren't as knowledgeable about, or comfortable around dogs (or have had traumatic experiences) being more nervous around pitbulls, but in this case the people in the dog park were completely out of line. If you aren't comfortable around ALL breeds, you shouldn't be at a dog park. And if you can't even tell if a dog is freindly, you shouldn't have a dog. I don't care what kind, you are putting yourself, and others at risk if you can't read your animal. I had a freind as a teen who had a cockapoo named Rosalie. Sweetest thing, but scared of men she didn't know, and could be aggressive towards them. My friend was always careful, her mother, and grandmother, who she lived with, weren't. One day she was over at my place, and her mother needed to call a plumber. My friend would have shut Rosalie in a bedroom, her family didn't even bother to watch her. The plumber was kneeling under the sink, and Rosalie bit his ankle, destroying a tendon. The poor dog had to put down, and the poor man will walk with a limp, for LIFE, because of dog owners, who didn't understand dogs. Honestly, I'ld be worried other dogs in those dog parks.
It's totally down to the owners. I've known small apparently ,,harmless ,, dogs, who growl, and could bite, if owners hadn't intervened. I think it's everything to do with the breed, the breed of HuMANS who own them, that is.!
Any breed can be bad. Blaming a breed is no different than blaming a race for a few bad apples.
these breeds were bred to protect kids because of not only their strength but amazing disposition and loyalty. If more people would report bad owners and dog fighting, tho here in Canada don't here much of that and finally make breeding legitimate. The amount of dogs being bred from stock that has bad traits, or exploited traits is just a few reasons to do so.
Pirate is a great example of how it is the owner that makes the dog. The problem is there are many pittie owners who use them as weapons. The general attitude towards pitties is full of ignorance. Any dog can be unpredictable if not given the right upbringing. Well done to you for putting so much of your life towards making Pirate the best dog he can be. It sure is paying off ☺ 👏
The problem is the breed. Plenty of these dogs, far more than any other breed, snap out of nowhere and become violent for no good reason. Can owners make it worse? Sure. But it's in there already. It's a defective breed and should not be allowed anywhere.
@@davidv6588 off what do you base this information? I had a pit once for several years. Was a good old boy the whole time and never did anything wrong. People's paranoia and listening to the government propaganda is the problem. I've met plenty of violent dogs of all breeds living in the south and almost always it was due to an abusive owner.
@@davidv6588 you need to get over your paranoia it’s the people that need to be educated
Yes but chihuahua cannot kill you or a child or another dog or cat within seconds. It is an animal and not human. Animals are unpredictable. Also owners assume people know how to act around dogs, some people have phobias , they would scream or jump around when a dog is approaching but even when a small attack would bite a leg it is nothing. I saw many bites from dogs and some severe and guess what , all of them were from friendly dogs. You should not expect people to be careful around your dog. Dogs that bite hard should be on leash always and with muzzle in crowded places .
@@unafflictedgaming Pittbulls account for over 60% of reported dog bites requiring medical attention in the US. Similar #’s are reported in other countries where they are legal. Even Cesar Milan, one of the best dog trainers in the world, had one of his Pittbulls maul someone. It is the breed, statistically and anecdotally. Just because a crocodile hasn’t bit the owner that raised it yet, doesn’t mean it won’t eventually become a threat. Countries have outlawed Pittbulls for a reason
He's beautiful and adorable! So glad he has a mommy that appreciates, understands, loves, and gives him the best life possible! Thanks for speading the positive word! ❤️
I LOVE HIM! When he does his little, quiet bark...I melt. Thank you for making the world just a little more accepting of well-behaved Pits. It's the nurture, not their nature. Well trained, well behaved.
My wife and I adopted a pit bull from a shelter six years ago. He’s incredibly intelligent and cuddly. Best dog I’ve ever had the pleasure of calling my friend. He’s twelve now. Healthy, happy, and a wee bit spoiled. In a good way.
The probability of a bite resulting in a complex wound was 4.4 times higher for pit bulls compared with the other top-biting breeds
He is a pet, he must be spoiled. It's the law. 😁
You can't get breeds at the shelter. Real pitbulls are pure with bloodlines and pedigrees. You owned a mutt
Pirate's eyes and ears are so expressive when she talks. He is listening to every word. 😍
Noticed as well 😎
Except for the very beginning where she was crying, and yes I felt that hurt... Except for then, I was smiling ear to ear because of you two.... You are an awesome pawrent!!!! And Pirate is simply amazing!!!!
Hello how are you doing today I hope you are doing well
@Officer Dibble thanks for the heads up.... But I'm not one who can be swindled... And I don't reply to comments like that anyway.... If he's scammed other women he needs to be reported to the police..
Wouldn't it be great if you could get an official collar tag from these training associations, to prove that your dog has completed their course, wherever they go? I think it would definitely help prevent stigma and fear around certain breeds.
I was thinking that too -- I would have attached that blue ribbon to his collar for a while, at least. And Sorry, but "that woman" would not have been able to intimidate me into leaving. No effing WAY. She's the one who would leave, out of fear of ME & the cops I would call for her harassment, not because of my innocent dog.
@@BJones-yw4dd I am glad that this lovely woman considered her darling Pittie's feelings; he saw her upset & as both were being yelled at and made to be the center of controversy at the Dog Park, she wisely left; no good could have come from staying at that point.
On the other hand, she came up with positive plans that produced
'win-win' results.
And to the poster who suggested official collars for those who've successfully completed training courses, this is also a great idea!
A (sponsored) 'National Standardized Training' course with official recognition would certainly insure that both the owner & pet are actively pursuing socialization & safety goals.
A basic collar with places on the collar for inset 'year accomplished
course' tags might be just the thing! I like it!😊❤
I love these two; yet another perfect pair who love to "get it done!'
She shouldn’t have had to leave…..
I don't think it would make any difference to the irrational puffed-up loons who are pickled in kool-aid. They like the unjust narrative they've soaked up & they like being bullies.
Pun intended.
Cheers to an amazing lady that has developed & trained her puppers to excel & navigate through a human world with breed prejudice & bias
Well done
I see a pup
Pit bulls are 6 percent of the north American dog population but are responsible for 62 percent of fatal dog attacks on humans
You go, girl! The world seems absolutely crazy these days. People really need to chill 😎. Discrimination comes in all forms. Congrats for being part of a solution. You have a precious pup, and it is obvious that he adores you. What a great relationship. Wishing you both very much happiness.
This pittie fears and discrimination is a usa thing. Here in Europe never is see something that 😕
@@biokosmos no state in the US outlaws Pits. UK has bans on them. Gtfo here with your anti-US bs.
@@biokosmos Yes, I do understand that it is unfortunately a USA problem. More time and effort need to be used for education on how to raise our dogs. Stricter oversight also for those people who choose to encourage aggressive behaviors. There is a lot of neglect and abuse. I wish they would instruct our children in school more on how to be responsible stewards of our planet.
From 2010 to June 2021, there were 430 fatal dog bites in the US, with 185 of those coming from pit bulls, and another 41 that were pit bull mixes. I get that they can be like big babies and that some people consider them part of their families but statistics don't lie and you are way more likely to get injured or killed by a pit bull than any other breed
AMEN!!!!!
This was heartbreaking in the beginning then BAM! Nothing but love, cuddles, kisses and accomplishments! I started following Zeusy the Pitties Channel after watching Zeusy for the first time. He and his family Chris, Sebastian and now Percy the Pittie have completely changed my mind on Bully Breeds. This is a precious story. I love it!! Pirate is so cute! People just need to see more things like this. It changes the way you view Pittie Breeds. Thank you so much for sharing! Keep smiling! 🥰❤️
Seriously, though, Pirate has such a wonderfully warm and friendly disposition - he just exudes 'good boy' vibes!
Our Sasha was a sweet, lovely Pittie. Miss her everyday
Hello pretty 😍,, how are you doing with all due respect can we be friends if yes kindly follow me thank you 😊
The dog in the video has no breed. Pitbulls are purebred with bloodlines and pedigrees. Learn difference between breeds and mutts
Don't give Karens the satisfaction. You seem like a lovely human being. My guess is that you have more people that love you than she does her.
Good for you sticking with it. Pitties are such good dogs. Their only fault - if you can call it that - is being so willing to please their owners. Bad owners are only too happy to capitalize on that. Keep up the good work you two!
One up for the underdog !!!! This is what we need . Salute to the owner for her dedication and hard work !!!
