I always tell people who think I'm stupid for even thinking bully breeds are great dogs (how can they be?) and maybe mentally disabled for thinking I can raise a bully pup responsibly with a pekingese.

I have three gems from my parents:

"How would you feel if you had a pit bull and it mauled your little cousin?"
My response: The same as I would feel if a chow, german shepherd, aussie, or even my pekingese were to maul anyone. Responsible and liable and plain horrible (Duh). I have to work to train and socialize any dog that I have and if I don't I have to properly restrain him or her.

"I knew someone who had a dog like yours and it got out of their yard and got attacked by two leashed pit bulls, why would you risk that?"
My response: I wouldn't, I would never have my dog in a situation where she were able to leave my yard. If she did I would be responsible, not the owner of two leashed dogs. I don't know what this has to do with my ownership of two socialized and responsibly cared for dogs.

"You know they are most likely to kill a child of any dog, right?"
My response: You have no idea how much I doubt this and I won't validate that with a search for a statistic.





See they own an aussie retired guide dog, so they seem to think that they know a ton about dogs and training because their dog was well trained for them.
