A SHORT OPINION ON ADOPTING SHELTER DOGS

THE PIT BULL HATERS CLUB WOULD LIKE EVERYONE TO BELIEVE THAT SHELTERS, ADVOCATES, SUPPORTERS ETC. PUSH PIT BULL BREEDS OFF ON UNSUSPECTING PEOPLE IN SEARCH OF A NEW FAMILY MEMBER BY NOT DISCLOSING THAT IT IS A CERTAIN TYPE OF BREED OR THAT IT IS MIXED WITH A CERTAIN TYPE OF BREED.  WELL MY THOUGHTS ON THAT SUBJECT ARE THIS.

YOU CAN CHOOSE TO ADOPT A SHELTER DOG OR NOT. THAT IS YOUR CHOICE.  BUT IF YOU DO CHOOSE TO DO SO, DO YOUR HOMEWORK FIRST.  KNOW WHAT BREED YOU ARE WANTING TO ADD TO YOUR FAMILY.  IF YOU HAVE CHILDREN, YOU NEED TO KNOW HOW TO TRAIN AND HANDLE NOT ONLY THE DOG, BUT YOUR CHILDREN.

IF YOU ACTUALLY LET SOMEONE TALK YOU INTO A DOG THAT YOU DON'T REALLY WANT, THAN YOU DON'T HAVE THE BRAINS TO OWN A DOG PERIOD.  FACE IT, IF YOU LET A PERSON TALK YOU INTO A DOG THAT YOU DON'T WANT AND DON'T KNOW HOW TO HANDLE, YOU HAVE NO ONE TO BLAME BUT YOURSELF.

AND IF YOU TAKE THAT DOG HOME TO YOUR FAMILY AND YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO WORK WITH IT AND SOMETHING HAPPENS TO YOU, YOUR CHILD, YOUR NEIGHBOR, AGAIN...YOU HAVE NO ONE TO BLAME BUT YOURSELF.

WHEN YOU GO INTO A SHELTER TO FIND A DOG, AND YOU DON'T WANT A BULLY BREED, THEN EDUCATE YOURSELF ON THEM AND GET A GOOD IDEA OF WHAT TYPE OF DOG FALLS INTO THAT CATEGORY AND DO NOT GET ONE!  PLAIN AND SIMPLE!!!   AND IF SOMEONE TRIES TO TALK YOU INTO A DOG YOU DON'T WANT, HAVE A PAIR BIG ENOUGH TO STAND UP AND SAY NO!!

SO YES,  IT ALL FALLS BACK ON OWNERS OF DOGS.  REMEMBER ANY DOG CAN BITE, ANY DOG CAN ATTACK AND IF YOU LET SOMEONE TRY TO TELL YOU THEY DON'T....WELL GUESS WHOSE FAULT THAT IS?

PEOPLE FOR UN-ETHICAL TREATMENT OF PIT BULLS

So once again the Pit Bull Haters Club believe they have done something special to promote their agenda.  Actually, all I have managed to see is a bunch of the same old stuff shuffled around in new memes and pages trying to get people to believe their lies and outrageous stats.

In an attempt to out do the supporters of Pit Bulls in promoting not only a month of awareness and education of the breed and dedicating the day of October 24th as National Pit Bull Awareness Day, the haters of dogsbite.org, daxton's friends, and what they claim to be 50 other Pit Bull attack victims groups, Including PETA, have set up the exact same day for Pit Bull Victims Awareness Day.

Well, I have looked over press releases, Facebook Pages, Web Pages, and I can tell you that the partners and friends (with the exception of PETA) are all groups affiliated with dogsbite.org and/or Daxton's Friends, so I really do not know who they are trying to kid.

I have also noticed that all promotions of this event have also been by Dogsbites. One of their promos had listed at the bottom of the page the following:

So, one would think that they paid for an advertisement by a company who does not even check to see if any of it is true or not. Which brings me to more questions.......  

WHY HAS NOT PETA PROMOTED THIS EVENT?  WHERE ARE ALL THERE ADVERTISEMENTS?  WHEN DID THEY BECOME A PIT BULL ATTACK VICTIMS GROUP?  I THOUGHT THEY WERE FOR THE ETHICAL TREATMENT OF ANIMALS???

OK...OK..IN ALL FAIRNESS PETA DID ISSUE THIS STATEMENT:

COALITION THAT WOULD HELP, NOT HURT, PIT BULLS HUH?  A COALITION THAT DOESN'T BLAME THE DOGS HUH?  HMMMM.....PEOPLE LIKE GARY YOUNG AND ELTON CAMP?

PEOPLE LIKE MARY ANN REDFERN?

PEOPLE LIKE BRUCE ARMSTRONG?

OR PEOPLE LIKE ONE OF THE HEAD ORGANIZERS OF THIS EVENT JEFF BORCHARDT AKA MIX MASTER BOGART.

AND WE CAN'T FORGET THIS ONE.....

AND HOW ABOUT A FEW MORE OF THOSE SUPPORTERS, FRIENDS, AND PARTNERS:

JUST MY OPINION, BUT I DON'T BELIEVE THIS IS BEING ETHICAL TO ANIMALS AND NOT WANTING TO HARM OR HURT THE PITS.
