Salud,Bro!Just made me think of Old Yeller. Salud, my friend
I have an aunt who has been bitten many times by dogs she encounters while out walking. She has always had an irrational fear of all dogs. She is also the type of person who likes to be in control of every situation and if you don't get with her program then you better get out of the way. Her reaction to any dog she encounters is to show both fear and aggression with her facial expression her tone and her body language. She doesn't realize that she is literally challenging these dogs and inciting fear and aggression. Can't tell her anything though.https://www.disclose.tv/dogs-can-re...Fmskb0OWc1-40gSzd10GSV3vkNvFItJHRVzQpE70w951I
so science says if you got bite, well it's because a dog can recognize a bad person..
You found 1 incident of a labrador biting a child and the child dying in the entire world. You have to travel to south africa of all places to pull this one up. And by reading the story you would have noticed the dog didnt maul the boy to death. The dog simply bit the child and severed an artery which led to the child bleeding to death. While very sad this is a poor example of what you pretended existed. Every dog is capable to a defensive snap or a fear bite. Every breed is capable of having some food aggressive samples. Not every breed is ripping humans apart. Especially with the frequency that Pit Bulls do. What are you going to show me next? A poodle that ran in front of a car, causing the car to swerve and killing the driver of the car?Maybe I need to state this again, I dont own Pits not because they are bad dogs .... My lifestyle just would not fit the needs of one.
Maybe you should look crap up before you type and look silly. Now you want to get personal ... but I get it no worries. I dont understand how the younger people today are so misinformed when they carry a world of knowledge in their pockets or have access to with relative ease. You ever have to wait for a report ? or go to the libary and research manually?
Since you say there are NO 4 year olds getting killed here ya go https://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/boy-4-killed-by-family-labrador-in-horror-attack-20160817
Maybe check out the 2-year-old killed by a hound right in Houston? The list can go on and on with just about every breed. All dogs deserve respect and should be treated accordingly .... Ignorant people buy animals and have no clue how to take care of them properly. If Fewer people bought Pittbulls that should not or can not take care of properly .... then it would not be a big deal ... the public outrage would still be German Shepards, Rotties and Dobermans You should google about public opinions on dogs.
Id suggest taking even maybe 5 mins to do some research on things you do not know or understand or if you intend to insult people, maybe just google their statements make sure they are not backed with facts. But because uninformed people like yourself, rumors and mistruths run rampant.
You keep stating this woman broke up a dog fight. It was a dog attack not a fight. If I walk up to a little girl and start punching her is this a fight? No its an attack.Still trying to figure out why the point of not trying to break up a dog fight without expecting to get bit is moronic - just common sense.
Still not the dogs fault but the owners fault. Hey, that lady that got attacked by the Jaquar was really not dumb - just a bad Jaquar I guess! I love my dogs and if they fight I would break them up, but if my dog is fighting a known fighter I am grabbing something to hit the dog with or my gun. I am not sticking my hand in there!
That's pretty cool,man& funny tooI have an aunt who has been bitten many times by dogs she encounters while out walking. She has always had an irrational fear of all dogs. She is also the type of person who likes to be in control of every situation and if you don't get with her program then you better get out of the way. Her reaction to any dog she encounters is to show both fear and aggression with her facial expression her tone and her body language. She doesn't realize that she is literally challenging these dogs and inciting fear and aggression. Can't tell her anything though.
I worked with a women who had a standard poodle. No kids so the dog was her baby. She told me he was a great dog but for some reason he didn't like men at all. She would cross the street to avoid walking by a man with the dog. I chuckled to myself when she told me that because I pegged her early on as some who didn't like men. Big girl, tough childhood getting picked on etc.
One day her husband was stopping by and had the dog so I asked if I could meet him. She said ok but warned me again that he really didn't like men. We walked outside together just as the husband was getting the dog out of the car. Dog slips past the husband before he could get the leash on and runs up to mom. Comes over to me an I "say hello" and am scratching his ears to his great pleasure while her and her husband are looking at each other like they can't believe what they are seeing.
I never said anything to her about it but I hope that she realized that her dog's hatred of men had nothing to do with its personality and everything to do with HER attitude and reaction towards strange men. She was relaxed with me so the dog was too. Go figure.....
Understood.When most animals get outside people fear for the safety of the animal. When one of these dogs get loose, people fear for other people's safety. You have to think Dak is very busy and can't provide the level of attention this breed needs. Unfortunately, the dog will pay a price, as well as Dak.
Man bro..
You are as Jimi Hendricks would say..
Experienced.
Man ,I've heard those saltwater tanks are like 3x's the work& expense in operations & maintenanceUnderstood.
Dak needs to stick to fish.
Piranhas maybe..
but at least he will know where they are at all times.
I once kept tropical marine fish.
Had an octopus and a leopard shark in a 100 gal. tank. They were both pretty small.
I trained the octopus to come to the surface and he wound grab a piece of shimp.
We would play tug of war over it and he would win and run down to a little cave I built for him and eat.
This was all fun a games until one day I came home an the octopus had my shark in a death grip.
The freaking shark cost me like $100 at the time.
Nothing I could do becuz I loved my octi.
But you just never know with an animal.
It will revert to its base behavior in some situations.
Meh.
Hey..Yer' pretty well rounded out in the varied paths of travel yerself there Bro!
Jimi left us way to early in the journey,ya know? I think there was a thread either here on this forum or some other site talkin' about the curse of the 27 y.o.
I was checking out the
" whatever happened to Johnny Horton " video & while I believe he'd gone country at around age 35, he' d had an overwhelming dread of being taken outta' life's game. By a drunk driver, it was more than a premonition, man!,,,it was like he KNEW it was gonna happen/ foregone conclusion,,,, that's some pretty high strangeness right there,huh?
They can be, especially a reef tank. I used to have a 200 gal. saltwater fish only tank and starting it took some work and money, but after it was established it didn't take much more effort than a freshwater tank. I went to college on the coast and had a saltwater tank and cost next to nothing, all the rocks, water, fish and critters, I scavenged, caught or collected myself.Man ,I've heard those saltwater tanks are like 3x's the work& expense in operations & maintenance

I saw a story once about a cocker spaniel being blamed for a deadly attack. But seriously?
It appears you are being willfully ignorant.
Since you are so educated and search savvy I am sure you have already seen this.
Here is a list of people killed in 2018 and the breed of the dogs that killed them. Funny how many people were killed by Pit Bulls isnt it? Coincidence I guess.

I was once walking my German Shepherd along a trail, with a friend and his pit bull. Every time my dog would pick up a stick, the pit bull would attack him, going for the throat. My dog wasn't a confrontational boy, so he'd just turn and walk away each time, and let the pit have the stick. After about the 8th or 9th time, the pit came up out of the blue and started sniffing my dog's face. It was obviously an aggressive move, and my dog bared his teeth. The pit attacked him again, but this time my dog grabbed her by the head and opened her up in 5 places.I am over it.
I did not hold it against the pitbull.
3 minutes before he had brought me the ball and I tweaked his ears and played with him.
He was fine.
I think he got jealous of Punkin and he did what he diid.
So I felt partially at fault.
The owner was this skinny little gal who had no control of him.
I jumped up and grabbed him by his collar and lifted him off Punkin.
She was 110 lbs..not a little thing.
I picked up the pitbull by the collar and he is struggling to get away and I reached down and forced his butt to sit and I screamed at him to stop.
The girl runs up to me and says "That's my dog"
I said.."you are lucky he did not bite me or I would have gone to my car and gotten my 9tmm and shot his ***."
With that she took him and left.
I was really pissed.
Then crap went down hill from there.
So was shocked she met that fate. But I have begun to think about another Golden to replace het.
We will see.
