Breeds That Bite
-
This is a pit, her name is Cisco and she belongs to a family friend. Great dog, my friends payed alot of money to get Cisco from a reputable breeder, they even took her to training, puppy kindergarten, Canine good citizen(or something like that) I am not against pit bulls, and I want to be very clear when I say that. Isn't she a beautful dog?
I just wanted to share this, so that everyone knows I am not against any breed, but there are some owners I'd like to choke. -
Someone sent me a message about this pic and it made alot of sense to me. They said that you can see the good spirit of Cisco in her eyes.;) I think you can, she is so sweet!

I love how they smile… My sister-in-law has a pit bull rescue and it cracks us up how he's scared of my little papillion. When the dogs get together, my little pap is the "leader of the pack"... no the big burly pitt. It is hillarious!
-
One of my nieces pits is scared of a floor lamp that they have. LOL She's okay if it stays in the same spot they placed it when they were moving into this house a year and a half ago, but if they move it – whether she is in the room at the time or not -- Cody freaks out and starts barking and running down the hall, then she'll come back to check on it and bark and run again. It's crazy. We can't figure out what is scaring her about it.

I don't remember where I saw this - and it was some time ago so I'm sure the stats have changed but I thought I remembered that the Cocker Spaniel was the dog that bit the most. Anyone ever remember seeing a list like that?
-
Way back in the day when I was a vet tech, most other techs would agree that cockers were by far THE worst. I am not sure if I ever actually saw it written anywhere. Back then there were a ton of cockers though too.

According to my vet, he says he would rather see a pit bull, than an Akita! Everytime he has seen an Akita it has tryed/ or bit him. In my city they all fear Akitas! LOL:)
-
Working at a vet office made me prejudice against cocker spaniels. Anytime we had one come in you could almost be sure it would try to bite one of us! I'll just go ahead and sayI know they are not all that way. Give me a pit bull any day over a cocker spaniel

Cockers were extra bad because they would pee on you and Then bite!

Well, I am going to put in my 2 cents here as not only do I have senji's but I also have German shepherds. And I can say after 7 years of being around and showing them I can say it is the socialization they receive as puppies. That is with any breed. I have friends that have pits and they are sweet dogs but if the person(s) who care for these dogs on a daily basis do not understand how to properly socialize a pup then there is bound to be an accident or two.
I socialize my pups starting from day 1 puppies are imprinted w/ the human sent as so they will not have fear, when they are about 3 weeks I start to allow outsiders come in and play and cuddle with them. Then as they grow they are taken out and introduced to new sounds and smells. If I have a pup that seems a little more shy than the others I will spend extra time with them. I believe it really gets down to responsiblity as an owner/breeder to socialize pups early so they grow up to be well adjusted k-9's able to adapt to any situation.
BUT THAT IS JUST MY OPINION.. NOT REALLY WORTH MUCH…. LOL -
Can I just say "thank you" to everyone for keeping this a civilized conversation? Kudos to All! So many times I see breed discussions like the one we are having here turn into shouting matches or name calling… and things get ugly fast.
Thanks everyone for keeping this an enlightened and educational conversation!

It's worth as much as any of the rest of ours.
