"OMG UR DOG SUCKS U SUCK AS OWNER EUTH EVERYTHING"

yeah, you totally showed me.
in addition,

You're a loving idiot, the pits are not on a leash in either of the pictures I am talking about (chick on head, being humped by small dog). And what evidence do you have that they were highly supervised? We see no other human in the pictures, we only know someone is behind a camera. A lot can happen in the time it takes for someone to put their phone/camera down once trouble starts, and as super said himself they are capable of snapping suddenly and have already killed other dogs.

Yes, once they kill another dog they should be put down. What kind of puppy was it anyway? Why even have other dogs at all around your pits? If you love pits so much why bother having other dogs, and why put other animals in that position at all where they can be killed by the pits?

They do this every pit bull thread and I don't forget, we need to talk about the state of gender biases and presentations within game dog enthusiasts.

I make the loving effort to check profiles before doing something so vulgar as defaulting to a gender pronoun but it's not like you're loving helping me here are you

Hi i'm a professional dog trainer. like I make my living doing behavior modification on dogs. I work with aggressive and fearful dogs mostly. rotating dogs who don't get along is uh, a really actually very responsible thing to do while you're conditioning them to behave around each other. some dogs don't like other dogs. that's okay! it's fine for a dog to not like other dogs! just set it up to succeed by not having it be around the dogs it does not like. this seems really really self-explanatory, but then again here we are.

How is this not connecting into all y'all's brains? It's weird to own a dog that you can't trust around other dogs. Most people own dogs that won't attack and kill other dogs for no reason. If you have to put your dog in a crate because you can't trust it not to kill the other dogs in the household, that is a terrible loving dog.

How is it not connecting in your loving retarded brain that dogs can be trusted around some other dogs (or may not be able to, depending on the dog) based on so many more factors than your goddamned idiotic rear end can comprehend? Literally every dog PI person posting in this thread has spent years, some of us a decade or more, researching the breeds that we have now or have had in the past. You know how TFR gets really spergy about guns? We're the spergs about pets because we are just fuckin fascinated by how their dumb fuckin brains work and how their husbandry is applied.

My dane, Amy, just overloads around smaller dogs. She doesn't mean to hurt them, but she does because she's stupid. She's 100 pounds of retardation and high strung crazy. Sure, you can kinda bridle that some days but even if I sat there beating the ever loving gently caress out of her (or tssting or whatever stupid poo poo you people think works that doesn't actually work, hint hint) it is way less expensive in vet bills and less painful in blood to just put her in a crate for a few hours, let the smaller dogs in the house out to play, then reverse that situation after a few hours. And just do that throughout the day, especially when you work from home (like me and Super do). I can trust her around my older dane, because he can put up with her goofy bullshit and if she grabs him or shoulderblocks him, it's not going to hurt him. Amy stepped on one of the little dogs and broke that dog's ribs. If she stepped on my older dane, he'd just kick her off.

If Super's puppy had been an adult dog, it probably would've stomped the pit that killed it. Size is such a huge factor that you guys aren't even bothering to comprehend. Crate and rotate is probably the most responsible thing you can do if you have pets that just can't cohabitate for any reason. Mine is size. Hers is because her doofus dogs wanna yank on each other's ears and scream about it or chomp on each other or whatever. My parents crate and rotate because they have an akita mix that will straight up murder any other dog around it- yet I can walk up to him, grab him and flop him on his back for belly rubs and so can anybody else. Even your ugly rear end could.

It isn't weird. It requires a hell of a lot more effort, and maybe putting that much effort into a dog is weird. But when you have the time to do it and you really like the dog (or dogs) involved, there's not really a good reason not to do it.

Most people that own dogs don't even loving understand simple poo poo like how to get their dogs to sit, stay and lay down without Petco telling them how to do it. PI's regulars do not represent, generally, the average dog owner. Most of us are involved in at least one animal sport or work our dogs in some way. We have people that range from Super with her murderpits who can balance a newborn chick on their heads because she's worked with them to make them loving behave while she gets the camera, to people like alifeless whose Cohen is a wonderdog that could probably save the US economy if alifeless taught her math. Personally, my danes are retired because one is 9 and a half and the other is almost 7. That's ancient in dane years and I don't expect much from them anymore other than quasi-manners when people come over. They used to do conformation showing. My little dogs have a few ribbons in novice rally (and two in novice agility), and the other is learning how to herd sheep and may or may not get involved in flyball (this one is a matter of finding a group that works for us).

PI generally works their asses off for their dogs because we can, not because we have to or because we're loving them or whatever SA meme is currently dripping around. But when we talk about dogs, we really do know what we're talking about. And 90% of you stupid shitbags don't.

I'm a responsible representative of the PI and I say it's absolutely normal to keep incompatible animals locked up in separate rooms and rotate them based on a schedule. I also keep a beaker of bleach and an open bottle of ammonia precariously balanced on the edge of my night table.

You guys have to understand: they don't "flip out" and kill everything. This is what they were made to do. We made them to do it this way because we wanted really hot dogs (I'm using hot in the sense of "you need a lot of work to deal with this animal" hot. Like certain horses or venomous snakes) that did this kind of thing. Humanity prized them. Super still does, and she manages them. One slip up caused her the loss of a puppy, and sometimes that poo poo happens. I can't even begin to tell you how many dogs I know that aren't remotely "bully breeds" (pits, staffies, etc, etc) that would have still murdered the poo poo out of that puppy because they are particularly intolerant of puppies, because they have high prey drives, because of a million different reasons. The pit is a terrier. There are a million other terriers and they are just as violent to their particular prey animal. Just because the pit's main prey animal was other pits, doesn't make it a bad dog. It just means you have to be super fuckin cautious when managing them. If you're up for the challenge and aware that poo poo can happen like Super's puppy and you accept it, it's no different than owning any other terrier. I've known tons of terriers and terrier mutts that murdered cats, birds, indoor small pets, and bit the poo poo out of kids and adults alike.

This is why I am not a terrier person, but wow I bet lots of you guys know lots of people who have a fat little jack russell or a doofy little cairn.
