Time to talk pit bulls.

This editorial is offensively anti "Pit Bull" and includes a poll about banning our breed. We are losing miserably. Please, if you e-mail Kerry Dougherty be polite and respectful.

• his very first sentence suggests to me that this guy doesn't have a clue:

• Every time I write about this, ah, feisty breed of dog - it's been about a year now since my last column on them - I'm quickly reminded that the only thing more aggressive than a pit bull is a pit bull owner.

• a "pit bull" is NOT a BREED of dog! this alone, nevermind the rest of the stupidity, shows me this guy's level of intelligence when it comes to "pit bulls".

• 
  it is equalivant to the # zero, ....:mad:

If she were close enough to me, Birdie & I would go visit her in person.

Or better yet, invite her along to my physcial therapy sessions where she just got another patient, an 87 year old man who had a stroke and REFUSED to do any therapy to throw a toy for her.

I wish I could take a camera man with me to the VA Hosptial when we visit. To the nurses & staff, my pit bull is a hero, she makes patients happy.

 

Done Deal!

 

Did anyone notice the spelling of the articles title "Owners think press gives pit bulls a bad yap" I think she spelled rap wrong.

 

Did any one send her an email?

 

I did. I will post her reply, if she sends something. Tho, i imagine she is going to be slammed!

I am curious if she even does respond. I hope she does. That was an ignorant editorial. She did even do any research on the topic.
