“MY PIT BULL IS GREAT WITH OTHER DOGS”

“MY PIT BULL IS GREAT WITH ALL OTHER DOGS” A line every Pit Bull owner comments over and over while callously posting photos of their dogs on media articles.

However did you know, firstly pit bulls are dogs? Their basic behaviour is that of a canine, where they differ vastly is their breed specific behaviour.

Some dogs loose their tolerance of other dogs as they mature and when this happens with a pit bull, and his or her breed specific behaviour kicks in the results are brutal.

Folks don’t set your dog up to be the next newsworthy statistic.

Don’t risk someone else’s beloved pet, keep your dog leashed.

Don’t walk through the suburbs.

Stay away from play dates and dog parks.

Remember, there is no time frame on this, sometimes one day they decide they no longer want to tolerate other dogs. AND THAT IS OK.. what is important is what you do next. Keep your dog and other dogs safe.

Plan for this day from the day you bring your pit bull home, so that you can keep your other pets safe. And be vigilant and supervise all the time. Split pets when you are not home.
