How many did it take for you Dehmocraps to become retarded? Some things just come by it naturally.


Are you done pretending to have known a K9 handler or are you going to bless us with more bullschit?

Don't be such a tart.

Do you have anything intelligent to say or are you just offering more of your pubescent attempts to seem like a grown up?

He assured me then the dog was OK and some needed a little more "convincing" than others. He just seemed strange, but he had been a K9 trainer for over 20 years and was well-regarded in police K9 circles (he was a well-known trainer in the state i lived at the time).


Huh......Head-crack training. Glad that's not on my repertoire.


I was always told if you need to beat your K-9 for compliance, its only a matter of time before he goes off the reservation.

People are a different story. They can be beaten...

In all seriousness, though, she's a wonderful person. She just doesn't like dogs very much, and particularly not of breeds with any sort of bad press.

That's just it. There is rarely ever a sign that something bad might happen.

Just this week, a pit killed an 8 month old baby. The baby had been around the dog the whole 8 months, as it was the babysitters dog. Just went off. I have no use at all, for pits.

I don't understand why anyone would want a dog that they always had to watch out for so it didn't attack kids etc.

Or why someone would go without homeowners' insurance.

If I made the laws, anyone owning a pit bull that injured someone would serve hard time.

In a situation like that, I blame the parents that allowed a pit in the house just as much as the dog owner and dog.

May that child rest in peace.

It's not just Pits or Rotts. Here is a list from one of the insurance companies I represent:


"Do you or any household member own one or more of the following breeds or a mix of one of these breeds of dog?

Akita, Alaskan Malamute, American Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, Bull Mastiff, Chow Chow, Doberman Pinscher, Pit Bull, Presa Canario, Rottweiler, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Wolf Hybrid."

A previous poster said people will lie about the type of dogs they have in order to get homeowners insurance. That is true, and I've had it happen in my Agency.

The problem arises when there is a claim for a dog bite and the insurance company finds out the homeowners lied on the application. At that point, the insurance company can deny coverage and will most likely cancel the policy asap. The homeowner is then left to pay for damages all on their own.

How much of your money do you think a jury will award the family of a 4yo, whose face was mauled by your dog?

There are insurance companies that will insure homes with the above named breeds in them, but there are fewer such companies each year.

That's the thing, though. Most owners of those breeds would likely be willing to sign an exclusion from coverage for dog bites, but when they ask for this, are flatly refused. So you can get the same result by simply saying no to those questions.

That's called an Exclusion Offer, and you are correct in that most insurance companies will not offer it for certain dog breeds.

However, if the client lies about the dog breed, and then the home gets hit by hail, the insurance company can still retro-cancel the policy to the last renewal date because they lied about the dog, and then that hail damage is not covered either.

If the insurance company does not 'redline' certain breeds upfront, they will most likely cover one (1) dog bite, and then they will cancel the policy at next renewal or, they might keep the policy if the homeowner agrees to give the offending dog away

The solution is to find an insurance company that will insure these breeds, and they are out there.

Contact an Independent Broker as to what companies are available in your area.

Most loyal, obedient, affectionate and playful dogs ever. They seem overly eager to their masters. But one day sooner or later they just snap for any reason or no apparent reason. It is like they lose their mind and turn savage. No use for them around kids and women.

My next door neighbor has a huge Bull Mastiff that they keep inside most of the time. This dog isn't friendly at all. Any time I'm in my back yard I have a pistol on me in case he busts through the fence. Him and his wife walk this dog around the neighborhood every evening, actually the dog drags them around. I don't know how much this dog weighs but his previous Mastiff weighed 225lbs.

Impossible to train genetics out of an animal, no matter how many times you thump them. Just observe how dogs behave once they get into a pack.They (pit bulls) just do what has been specifically breed into them and that is a very powerful musculature, a powerful jaw and the unending desire to attack and kill things be it other animals or people
