Pit Bull <3er's

I think Pitbulls are cool dogs.. just dislike owners that have one to make themselves look like badasses because they're not.

Agreed. I don't believe in bad dogs, just bad owners.

Yes the owners cause a lot of issues, trainging them to fight and teaching them to be mean. Pitbulls are very protective of their owners and owners sometimes use that beyond how they should. But I would not take anything for my pits. They are very sweet and very obedient dogs better than the other dogs i have.

I am pet sitting a coworker's 4 month old pit mix this week. She's a total sweetheart!

I think pits are great dogs! I hate what some people do to them and what they make them become. It breaks my heart.

A pit bull is definitely in our list of dogs we are going to own. I want to continue with our new trend of getting "scary" dogs, and raising them properly, y'know with love and respect; so we can break this stupid stereotype.

This is Zephyr. He will be 7 on 5/5/12. I have owned him since birth and also owned his dad and mom. He loves to go running with me. He is a lover. Its all about how they are raised for sure because he gets along well with other dogs, kids and babies. The key to making sure your are a responsible owner is to make sure they get lots of exercise. They are high energy and tend to get an attitude if not wore out.

I love pits! Every one I have met has been awesome and none have been pure bred. (With the amount of dogs killed every day, I don't understand breeding at all - IMO I have only ever had rescue mutts and have never had issues)

I have personally owned four pit mixes so far and hope to own lots more :-)

Dogs are as unique as humans.

All these dog pics make me want to go rescue one!! :flowerforyou:

This is Dolly, a ~3 yr old Pit/JRT mix (I know, don't ask!). I took this picture the day I got her off the transport. She was found running on a main road with 2 other dogs in Greenville, SC, last November, 5 days after her owner committed suicide. The shelter kept her for a couple of weeks, but apparently there's weight discrimination for dogs, too, because the other 2 were adopted, and one of the volunteers there said it was hard to adopt overweight dogs! Dolly was going to be put to sleep. The rescue I volunteer with pulled her the day before she was scheduled to be put down. I fostered her, and we bonded immediately. She slept lying across me, like she wanted to make sure I didn't go anywhere. She steals hearts everywhere she goes. Her mission in life is to lick your face, like it's the most urgent thing ever! She was adopted within a month, but they returned her 3 days later because she was miserable. She tried to dig her way out of their front door the first day, and tried to run away the 3rd day. She never did this at our house. She kept watching the door, and they were sure she was waiting for me. So, now she's my dog. I was her person all along. She's lost 10 lbs, so she no longer looks like a big white sausage. She makes me happy on a daily basis.

Here, we have Peaches, my in-law's pitt/lab mix, and Shadow, our Doberman. Both were rescues and the most loveable dogs ever. Yes, they're protective of their humans and their home, but they couldn't be better dogs.

They look so cute with natural ears! I'm a sucker for a black and tan dog.

I want to punch the idiot that did the [insert-some-random-strain-of-words-inappropriate-for-the-forums-here] job on his tail. Seriously? It looks like a rubber band job. I love his big floppy ears though. If he had cropped ears, he'd look ridiculously scary hahaha.

My Brothers Bully Sully!

This is Allie(will be 5 people years in Sept), she is the sweetest most loving dog ever! She only has one problem...she thinks she is a teacup poodle or some other teeny tiny lap dog. Her best friend is a miniature yorky (this dog comes over from three doors down, crawls under the fence and will climb up on my sleeping dog and take a nap)

She plays shy when we get out the camera, she will be all over you but if you try to take a pic she walks away and won't look at you.

These are my pitties... The big one is a mastif/pit mix though!

I thought that all dogs think that?

:brokenheart: What a handsome pupsters! I love pitbulls, but I've never had one of my own :brokenheart: But I plan to someday... Maybe even have a workout running buddy when I get fit enough to go jogging! :bigsmile:

He's sooo cute!!! My dogs name is Bully and he is 6 years old. He is lab, boxer and pit bull. He's also a big baby. I have 2 kids that crawl all over him. He thinks he needs to be on my husbands lap, but he weighs 100 lbs!!! He walks with me and keeps me motivated. Pit bulls get a bad wrap. I think they're beautiful and sweet.

And one more to make you all smile!

Holy *kitten* that is adorable! Quoted for the fact that it just made me squee.

I'm a vet tech and I work ER overnights. Of all the breeds I've worked with, pitbulls are some of the silliest goofballs I've come across. They are so friendly and I love the pit bull song they sing. I do not have the space for a pitty, or I'd definitely have one.

SergeantSunshine_reused

I had a pitbull that I rescued for about a year. He got lose one day and was running around. My neighbor filled a report, and lots of stuff went down. Long story short my dog was put down. He was lose, but just ran a few laps like a silly dog. No attacks or violence... just a puppy :C I don't even have a picture of him *sigh*

BUT! Here is this random cute picture of a random pit bull
