      I got a dog that was re-homed from her previous family at 3 1/2 years old because she couldn't get along with their two other dogs. I know absolutely nothing else about her upbringing, but While she is sweet at home and with humans she is a noisy terror on her walks always pulling and lunging whenever she sees another dog. Fortunately she only weighs ten pounds, so the chance of her mustering up enough pull to yank the leash out of my hands is slim to none.

      I agree. I feel the Pit Bull got the rap for a lot of owners who acquired them to MAKE guard dogs out of them. I've met some. I've also known several who were raised like NORMAL dogs and are the biggest couch cuddlers I've ever known. It's NOT the BREED!

    • @ES11777
      @ES11777 ปีที่แล้ว +32

      @@valkyrie1066 It’s true about dogs who are inherently well-behaved, but that’s NOT pit bulls. Pit bulls literally have aggression towards people and other dogs in their genes, since they’ve been bred for generations to attack other dogs and attack people. They have violence in their genes just like basset hounds have calm demeanour in their genes, Newfoundlands and Labradors have love for water in their genes etc. It’s extremely misguided to say that pit bulls can be well rounded dogs if raised with love. There are more than enough stories of pit bulls (even those who were raised right) attacking or mauling to death people, other dogs and kids out of the blue. Unfortunately, when my dog was a puppy he also experienced being attacked by a pit bull. Fortunately it was through the fence and so he could jump back and be out of reach quickly. That pit bull knew my puppy since he was still a puppy as well! The owners socialised him with other dogs and people from the day one and even had trainer visits from day one. He wasn’t abused or anything like that. Yet he went straight for my puppy’s neck one day out of the blue when he saw that my puppy was happily trying to greet a woman that was at that side of the fence with him. Their minds just don’t work right and you never know what will make their aggression genes get activated and it can be at the most unexpected times. Hence, there are so many stories like mine, but most of them end in severe injuries or even death of the dog or human that the pit bull attacked. Please, think before you write. I’m sick of the “pit bulls are not bad dogs!” movement that I myself used to be part of before the incident. It’s dangerous. It does more harm than good. Please stop.

      ​@@ES11777No, that's ignorant as well as harmful to say. PItbulls have lots of energy and need gentle guidance - but they aren't naturally more aggressive than any other dog. Lazy owners will ignore the pitbull's needs and end up with a misbehaving dog they say is "genetically aggressive", like there is nothing they can do. Give that dog exercise and training (as in tricks, simple as that) and you'll see how all that goes away.

But nearby he would automatically lunge every time. Sweetest dog with humans though, was actually happy whenever he got to visit the vet.

      When I fostered a pitbull-lab mix this past Christmas (more pit than lab), I took her to the dog park and she was always the only pit there. But, she was an absolute social butterfly. She didn't try to form cliques but she did seem to prefer German Shepherd's, because they would actually chase her (she was one of the youngest at the park at nearly 1.5 years old). She would zoom all over the park to greet people and dogs and the German Shep's also seemed to always trot up to me frequently while there and ask to be petted. Their size was initially intimidafing, but if they were walking up to me and nudging my hand, they clearly were sweethearts, plus they were willing to indulge the hyperactivity of my girl, though their size (and maybe age) made them tire out long before her 😅. I know not all pits and German Shep's are like this, but it breaks my heart that they're turned away on principal, just because of their breed.

Her friendliness was actually what killed her, she couldn't resist letting toddlers ride her like a horse and although I tried to stop it enough of this happened that she finally broke her back, lost the ability to defecate and had to be put to sleep (if she hadn't lost the ability to defecate I could have built her a scooter for her unusable back legs). I also had a friend in Canada that had a full bred Wolf and a Wolf mix, they were both extra friendly and although there wasn't ever kids around his property I bet they would have had toddlers riding on their backs as well. My friend's wolves didn't lose the ability to hunt from domestication, though, so occasionally my friend would find some sort of wild animal killed and eaten (leaving the head and the skeleton) on his very rural wilderness camp. I didn't bring Bear with me on vacation up there so I don't know how my friend's dogs would have responded to her.

    My mom's cousin had a dogo argentino and boxer mix, and she was the sweetest and most well trained dog I have ever seen to this day. Not only that but she quite literally saved my grandma's life. They were staying with my grandparents for a few days, and my grandma had a heart attack while mowing the lawn of her property a few miles away from the house. The dog went CRAZY trying to tell my mom's cousin that something was wrong, until she finally followed her and found my grandma. The lawn mowing could actually take a whole afternoon, so no one would have been worried about my grandma missing for a few hours. If the dog had'n't been there she would'n't have been found until hours later and it would have been too late.

    As a mommy of a 2yr old female Dogo, I love this video. She never needs her nails clipped because she needs so much exercise that they are always ground down to nothing. She wants to cuddle every second she is not playing and has a Jack Russell terrier as a B.F.F. Most people still walk to the other side of the street when they see us coming even after two years of seeing her but that’s OK they are just missing out on kisses. Keep spreading the good word about this amazing breed. Rucola is the best dog I’ve ever owned.

      My friend’s dogo is dangerous… dangerous when he decides your lap is his bed and lays all 100+ pounds of him deadweight on you and you’re 5’2”. 🤣🤣🤣 No, he’s really a good boy. He loves his dog BFF who lives next door and his kitty siblings and he’s an absolute doll when my friend brings foster kittens into the house. Each one must be inspected with sniffs and kisses. Honestly, if I didn’t read about the breed and someone off the street told me they were dangerous, I’d probably laugh.

    They have 3 of these where I work, none of them are that fluffy. I can't begin to explain the strength and brutality with which these dogs give me kisses, bumps and love. They kind of "ragdoll" you around with friendship. If you're not careful you could end up with a few bruises and scratches, but that's out of love, that gives an idea of what they can do when angry (they're very well manered for what they are, very tolerant, and their pain threshold is very high). These dogs fend off and fight huge boars that have become a pest in the area, that are very dangerous for humans and other animals, they come back with scratches and cuts, but the boars end up much worse.
    They also have a couple of beautiful rottweilers, that even if they're big and muscular they're not as strong as the dogos.

      My dog is tiny and absolutely hates it when she needs to get her nails clipped. For sure a big dog can inflict more damage but it doesn't mean they're dangerous. I think the issue is that a lot of owners lie to groomers (and vets) about their dog's behavioral issues.

      It's never the dog always the owner. Where I live idiots get dogs like this and deliberately train them to be aggressive hence they're banned in my country. I think if you get such a powerful breed you should have to get a licence so they don't get into the wrong hands. I have a Boerbol so am a massive lover of large powerful breed but you have to socialise, socialise, socialise.

      @@Ruth78620 that's how I think it is where I live as well, it's not the dog's fault that its breed attracts some of the most irresponsible owners. First time I hear about boerboels, they are beautiful! I've met only 1 mastiff type dog and he was SO sweet, mellow and generally adorable despite how huge and fierce they look, that I already decided I love mastiffs. I have an old dog that I failed to socialize with other dogs when she was little but at least I taught her not to bite. She just growls and barks her head off at nonhumans, the only reason it's not a problem is that she's a tiny inoffensive pug. In that sense I think one can get by with more screw-ups with some breeds than others as an owner so a license makes sense.

    I had a beautiful Rottweiler named Jack for 9.5 wonderful years. So often people walking their tiny dogs would cross the street when they saw him. I was waiting in line at the vet for a shot clinic. He was surrounded by tiny yappers. He sat quietly, never barked, never tried to eat one of the tiny ones…. Many people in line commented on how well behaved he was. “Good dog owners make good dogs”. Jack would herd my nieces and nephews away from the pool while they played. And when my mom fell off a ladder dislocating her knee in her orchard, she held on to him while he drug her to her phone. He was the best dog ever. ❤

      It's not judging. It's just precautionary behavior. Not all walks in the amazon rain forest will kill you, but some people refuse to go walking in the amazon rain forest. Some will say they're missing out on an amazing experience, some will say "Hell No!". You shouldn't judge people for refusing to go into the amazon rain forest, you shouldn't judge people who are cautious about handling dog breeds which they consider too risky.

The deal breaker for us was the relatively short life expectancy which I thought was closer to 9 years.

    THAT FACE! Oh my goodness, he’s such a precious sweetheart. It kills me that people judge a dog simply based on their breed. My husband and I recently started looking for home rentals in Las Vegas and so many of the homes/townhomes we tried to apply for would turn us down simply based on the fact we have a chow/retriever mix. They saw chow chow in the title and made their decision, but if they would’ve been open to meet him, they would’ve realized that his temperament is very much retriever. Sweet and cuddly with a dash of lazy. The only thing he got from the chow side is the purple/blue tongue, lion’s mane and body structure. Hopefully with more breed ambassadors like my dog, Escobar and so many others out there, we can change the automatic judgement & outright restrictions on certain “undesirable” breeds.

It’s then a game of risk & probability of rolling the dice that we’d be able to hide the dog in time to avoid the violation & eviction. Luckily, we were able to find a house that had a dog friendly owner that was willing to see video & photos and determined my dog was not a threat. Better to be up front to avoid the hassle in the long run of the possibility of being evicted and deal with the hassle of looking for awhile to find a dog friendly rental home. Also, they offered us a reasonable refundable pet deposit, which was more difficult than you’d think for the Las Vegas area. Most places charged a $500-600 non-refundable deposit as well as a monthly $50 pet fee. 🤯
