Saltmoon 2,208 Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 So listening to the radio on the way to work and the "goverment" want to put Staffordshire bull terriers on the dangerous dogs list long with pitbulls ect I think this is madness!! I am a strong believer in it's the owners not the dogs yes there will be some dogs out there that do have issues but normally those issues are made from a previous owner. What's your opinion? 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Born Hunter 17,820 Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 I've never been concerned about a bull breed biting me. But they are a f***ing liability with other folks dogs. They don't go through the same stages of signalling aggression that most dogs do and couple that with the tools to do a lot of harm quickly I find them a pain in the f***ing arse. Equally, I doubt it'd be enforced in the slightest which makes discussing the issue moot. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kerny92 1,246 Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 It's all about common sense, if you've got a dog aggressive animal and walk it out where other dogs are then it's not exactly difficult to avoid incidents. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Expand Youve been lucky with the presa then.I love bullbreed/mastiff types and have spent a fair bit of time working with various crosses but wouldnt trust one of them rank dominant c**ts as far as i could throw it.I know of way too many bad situations that have happened with them fuckers even with serious dogmen/trainers that know their stuff although the males do seem to be a lot worse. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Saltmoon 2,208 Posted July 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 My old bullx was bad with most other dogs also alot of people aswell but nothing ever happened I walked him really early before anyone else was about and really late after everyone or if go way out on the moors he wasn't on the lead much and still never got anyone. Had a few dogs nothing bad though luckily. One dog he was on the lead and I was asking the other person to get there dog back but they just said he's alright with my response mine ain't so feckin get it away!! To late by that point but once I fully understood the dog it never happened again. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
