dangerous dogs act!

just heard that you have to prove the origins of your dog (prove it's not a pit bull or whatever)
if the police think it looks like a dangerous dog. now considering i have people crossing the road to avoid my dog, this is a little worrying.

even other dog owners will cross the road. and my dog is very kind looking, she's always smiling.

this is obviously due to the stigma attatched to the dog by the goverment (wanting to add staffies to the dangerous dogs list).

why do they find it so hard to see thats it the owner that ultimately influences the dog, and thats what they need to sort out, instread of passing the buck onto our pets.



AAAAAAAAaaaaaaahhhhhh

that feels better,

thanks for lstening  :mrgreen:

I've been bitten about 4 times and non was a pit bull type, 2 x sheep dogs, an alsation and a family pet heinz 57. It's the unpredictability of the attack. 3 of them were calm and placid before biting. One was what you'd call vicious looking, it actually stuck its snout thru some railings and grabbed my arm! All dogs can turn nasty for no apprent reason.

If a dog's barking and snarling in public I'd say it's a dangerous dog.  If its not it still may be.

wot dog have you got @ whatalotoffun, ive got a staffy now called diezel & hes huge ppl cross the street when they see us which makes me howl because hes soft as grease, but i must admit ive had to have a massive fence but up on my back garden coz next door but 2 the biggest chavs where i live have bought a pit bull & they just let it out on the banks, but also saying that, my first dog was a pitbull called Blaze & he was the most softest kindest dog you could ever wish to meet, its the owners, shoot the owners not the dogs …

have you ever watched that programme abot the dogs that get taken away when the owners cant proove there origins, this woman had 2 staffies taken away for a year because someone said they was pitbulls, & there is only 1 expert who the courts use who can say whether they are or not, you or i could see they were staffies but it was down to this one man, luckily she got her dogs back but who knows , dosent bear thinking about…


Sorry if ive rambled on but this is a topic real close to my heart

Sorry if ive rambled on but this is a topic real close to my heart

here she is:
she is supposed to be a staff (she's a bit petite compared to some)

this topic is close to many dog owners hearts, but others agree with it

awww bless look at her with her eyore, my dogs too jealous for cuddly toys he shreds them lol..
girl staffies do tend to be smaller weve got diezels daughter too and shes the double of diezel but half the size & just for the record, my Nan has got a yorkie terrier & its evil she has to put it in a cage when anyone comes to the house

Heres my diezel…



someone suggested me leaving him in the car when the roofs down to guard it, but he would let them take it ….

yeah i totally agree ive always had staffy's and if you get them from pups, and treat them right with the correct ammount of discipline, they are excellent dogs and generral soft as s**t, my dog dax is 7 years now only time he has ever got nastyish is when the gas man came round and it was just my 94 year old nan was in the house and all he done was stay near my nan to warn him off as soon as i got home i told dax he was a friend and guess what he wouldnt leave the gasman alone for 5 mins while he worked i think it all comes down to training and treating them right

here's dax


heres Tazzy

awwwwwwww, i would have a house full of staffies if i could, tazzy looks like diezel`s daughter Beau is that a girl?

yeah she's a girl she is the most lovable staffy i have ever owned, a proper ladies dogs too loves my mum and my girlfriend, and always want to sit on your lap and have fusses or cover you with kisses lol

This makes me sooo angry! Its the owners not the dogs!! if its treated unfairly and brought up to be aggressive then it will be! the owners should be taken down not the dogs!! grrrrr! this really beefs me! You hear of incidents happening by certain types of dog, but thats only because chavtastic gypos tend to specifically want dogs that look a certain way. Its them that make them aggressive, its a learned behaviour! im pretty sure if you treated a cocker spaniel the way they do and make it aggressive it would be!!

I was attacked by a rottweiler (sorry spelling?) quite badly when I was young, but I have never ever blamed the dog for what happend or ever been scared of them since.

its just easy paperwork to blame a dog.

I love all animals but sometimes people just want a dog for all the wrong reasons or choose the wrong type of dog for their circumstances. If you have a particular affinity to a certain breed or vast experience of one type of dog then fair enough,but chavs and fools that buy a certain 'type' of dog just to look 'hard' really boils my blood.
I must admit,if i'm out with my little girl i will give dogs with a 'reputation' a wide berth and keep a close on on them even when they've passed. That said and despite being an animal lover,if any mut touched my kids i would gladly chop it into small pieces.

heres my rolo and shes as soft as muck she plays with my bros kids and they pull her tail and ears and not a mumble out of her. the kids are more of a pain than the dog
