I need to rant. So i been seeing post about dog fighting and crap and how its so crule and how people who do that are "pussies". First why the hell do people get a APBT IF they dont like there TRAIT? You people need to stop PLAYING GOD! this world isnt perfect so quit trying to make it perfect with your oh this is so wrong crap. "Animals dont got voices but we do" what kinda of crap is that? Has it occured to you people that they love to do this? I hate to say it but you people are the ones who are destroying the APBT. If you dont like there dog agressive trait go get a dam TEDDY BEAR. The APBT isnt for the soft hearted!
man what

Possession of a trait does not require said trait be expressed in a specific manner. The trait of dog aggression doesn't suddenly equate to "it's totally rad to fight dogs". The trait of dog aggression only means that the dog is likely to be aggressive towards other dogs. How owners choose to deal with the trait is a choice: a responsible owner should be aware of such traits, but not use them as an excuse to allow abuse to occur. Abuse is abuse regardless of how much your dog.

By-the-by: Using people who deny dog aggression in any breed is a straw-man argument. These irresponsible owners don't make your position automatically valid. You're better off trying to justify (your unjustifiable) position than shifting focus.

Dogs do not get to choose what they do or do not like, be it fighting or eating their own crap. They really don't have a voice and have not for the last 15,000 years. People have been guiding the development of dogs for that long and we need to honor that.

I love my pit. I recognize that dog aggressiveness may develop in her behavior one day. I have altered my lifestyle, my family's lifestyle, and my home to manage her energy and potential issues. You're right that the world isn't perfect, but if you make decisions that don't involve the commandment from the sage Bill and Theodore, you're not doinganything to improve the world.

"Be excellent to each other."

Dogs are included in that "each other" part.

If you choose to fight or support dog fighting any any way whatsoever, Bill and Ted shake their head at you in shame.
