wow. I guess your friends are gonna wait until Ace Kills another dog - before they "get it." It's sad, because Ace is doing Nothing wrong, but if/when something Really bad happens, he will be the one that gets blamed.

If I were Bear's owner, I would have made damn sure the dogs were seperated (or took Bear home) after the 1st scuffle. Were Bear's injuries bad?

I do not trust the people in my neighborhood or people in general to know how to manage their dogs. I feel the same way. When I walk my dog, I am always in fear of an off-leash, or stray dog running up on us. It would be so nice 2 walk him without being paranoid the entire time.

Some people never learn. They are of the its-all-how-you-raise-them camp. I got a friend who has an 8 month old, 75 lb "bully" type pit bull who thinks that our dogs should get together in his backyard to play. I have told him time and time again that it's never going to happen but he thinks I'm being paranoid.

Nothing too bad. Just a little cut on his nose and the same for ace. We were sitting in lawn chairs and Bear was in front of Jared when the scuffle happened and I was next to Jared so it was really quickly ended.

That does stink... bad situation, idiot people who think "it will never happen to me" http://www.pitbull-chat.com/images/smilies/no2.gif

I'm just glad you were there and had your break stick on you! Otherwise, it could have been a very bad ending for both those dogs, and your friend would have lost more than just a good friend. You'd think she would "get it" after seeing what happened. I don't get people sometimes. http://www.pitbull-chat.com/images/smilies/frown.png

They have this attitude where they can "train" it out of him.. http://www.pitbull-chat.com/images/smilies/no2.gif I've tried telling them its not something you can train out of him. And they wonder why I never bring Guinness over or any of my dogs for that matter. They always ask "why dont you bring them over!? they all need to play!" No they don't.
