Dangerous Dogs

[Bill Walker]

I love random knowledge like this!

Could've gone in the "post something interesting" thread imo.

I find that thing very scary. Is it just me ?

Wait until it’s full size. They look at you like they know they can rip you to shreds with a dead look on their face. Their ears don’t move and their tail stands upright (threatening behaviour).

why would I own a rotti, I have kids. It's like the US gun argument, sure you can hold a gun if you want but why would you want an AK47 assault rifle?

Odd that, as the rotti i had for ten years doted on my grandson from the day he was born

My mate has the standard sized American Bully and it's a handful..

It's the morons who abuse and train the dogs that need banning

 

[Franny 1234]

They aren’t. It’s they who should be punished. Saying that The justice system in this country is an absolute joke. Every week in my local paper, I read of people getting off with suspended sentences for quite serious crimes because “poor little fella had a hard upbringing and his precious 17 offences were just down to this” it really boils my piss.

I am convinced the ferral scallies that own these dogs do so because the offence of having a savage dog is less than carrying a weapon. Increase the sentence for the owners and the problem with drop dramatically

The cocktail of a dog bred for violence and owners who are morally lacking is a recipe for disaster. Similar scenario to guns in the US . Dick extensions for the socially inadequate.

When I got my retired greyhound at first I walked him with his muzzle on, but people avoided us like the plague, and I always hated that it might remind him of his racing days, which despite what anyone says is fucking horrible for the dogs. Eventually I took his muzzle off, and people were much friendlier towards him, and he seemed happier. Little dogs were always snapping and barking at him, but he never ever responded. Lovely dog, miss him loads.

Greyhounds are just beautiful placid dogs who love nothing more than sleeping. So sad that so many get discarded or worse after their racing days are over.

Culling.

Are you sure that's the right breed? They're supposed to grow to be a bit bigger than that.

Shakes head

People that bring dogs into pubs and think its funny when it starts barking away piss me off

And not all dog owners are selfish. No more than cat owners who think its ok for the cat to be shitting in everyones gardens

Merlin shits in his tray actually, comparing cats to controlling a killing machine is lame as fuck

Birds maybe would disagree.

43% of all dog attacks this year have been caused by large Bully breeds. When they’re a small percentage of the overall dog numbers. That’s irregular.

There will be irresponsible and unacceptable owners of other breeds (like you mentioned, Akitas, they barely register compared to XL bullys and are only just ahead of Labradors) but they don’t come close to the amount of attacks by American Bullys.

This chart has been very fair by not grouping all American Bullys as one breed and they’ve split the total in three. Add those three red lines up and compare them to the rest of all dog breeds though, and it’s abnormal… it’s even abnormal without adding them up when you look at how few of them there are compared to, say, Staffies which are in the Top10 most popular dog breeds in Britain.

Dobermans are about as dangerous as Pugs, Cane Corsos are responsible for fewer attacks than Spaniels… but the American Bullys are off the scale!

These oversized menace dogs should all be destroyed, they are a real terror threat to society.

whilst i admire the need to deflect this away from dogs killing and maiming adults and kids , by bring cats into it is laughable, does human life not matter to you ? You own a dog i presume ?

I was comparing dog owners to cat owners. Cats are cunts, everyone knows that

Merlin may shit in a tray, inside, but my next doors cats like to shat in my flower beds

maybe based on risk factor insurance could be introduced so for example a little sausage dog would have a low premium say £5 per month and at the other end of the scale the Bully would be £100 per month this would weed out the chav owners and back street breeders

But they won’t pay insurance

Nice perspective

But they won’t pay insurance

then the dogs removed and the court fines them 1k, if they dont pay the court they go to jail for non payment
