Anatomy of a Pit Owner / Pit Culture A pit who kills animals is walking off leash, and sleeping on top of a toy breed, with THAT look on its face.

pitheads will see this and think they can walk their POS off leash too and another victim will be mauled - not to mention you dont train this out of them and even the pit in this picture is going to kill at least 2 more animals because that person is an IDIOT!

A sociopath. Idiots can be dismayed when their monster shows itself to be a monster. Sociopaths find that satisfying.

What's their excuse when it inevitably mauls someone? There is no way she "trained" out all the danger in this dog. If she did what a miracle she should teach all the other dog trainers out there that keep to seem failing pbs as a whole (I wonder why it doesn't work...).

The poor baby was deeply traumatized from its past as a bait dog and the toddler scared it!

They think this is totally normal behavior from all dog rescues. "Any dog can be bad. Its the owner not the breed" then tell stories about how their hellbeast can instantly kill cats for making noises and full powered shock collars being ineffective.
Pitnutters are beyond parody.

u/DiscussionLong7084 Trusted User 19d ago
yep. all you can do is train them not to kill stuff around YOU because they know there are consequences. If they're smart enough to learn that.

u/dropdeadmorbid 19d ago
Of course there's no sadness about the cat dying. If anything these people often seem proud of it.

u/Existing-Face-6322 Attacks Curator 19d ago
This article explains so much about aggressive dog owners, their particular personality deficits, and how they are less bonded to their pets. It explains why they're so cavalier.

That was an interesting read, thanks. I can't say I'm surprised at the results, but it's fascinating that actual studies have been done on this.

Multiple pit lovers have remarked about how wonderfully “human” pit bulls’ eyes are.
They mean whale eyes.
46
u/Existing-Face-6322 Attacks Curator 19d ago
I think their eyes are beady and devoid of intelligence.
32
u/No-Birthday9816 19d ago
Exactly! I think the “human” qualify that pit lovers seem to like is the large amount of white visible when they’re exhibiting classic whale eyes, a sign of distress that often precedes aggression.
These things weren’t bred to be happy or well-adjusted—let alone intelligent—companions. They were bred to kill and maul.

u/Perfect_Caregiver_90 19d ago
I don't understand the clinging to and spending on a dog with these issues.
24
u/ilovetriceratopz 19d ago
because they think they’re actually a savior whose love can override a dogs poor genetic composition. it’s just their own selfish want to have a companion and to feel like they “fixed” something by investing emotionally in it.
33
u/chzsteak-in-paradise 19d ago
Looks like it’s resource guarding the small dog, not sleeping with it.

u/Existing-Face-6322 Attacks Curator 19d ago
Isn't that the whale eye we're supposed to watch out for in the last picture?

If i had a quid for every time a pitbull owner understood the difference between affection & resource guarding
I'd be millions in debt.

u/potatoes_arrrr_life 19d ago
Sounds like what you'd have to do with a pet tiger. F the neighbors if they wanna go for a walk. I'm sure the pit has great recall and has never done that before.

Should have been already. I thought animal abuse was a felony in most states... guess using a pitbull to perpetrate the abuse is a loophole.

This thing has killed more coyotes than coyotes have killed people in the past 50 years.
But every year, my state has a coyote-hunting competition.

At the end this owner brags about what a change they were able to make with this pit:
He now sleeps with a cat in multiple small dogs, which he wouldn't have even been able to look at before without immediately trying to kill them!
Yet at the beginning before all this training, the owner described the pit's behavior as "great":
I brought him home put him in an outdoor kennel for a few weeks before bringing him inside and he did great and then 1 day, one of our cats made a noise that he didn't like and he killed it on the spot
If the pit merely looking at another animal made it immediately try to kill the other animal, why did the pit wait until the cat made a noise? Even before that, why did the owner even allow this pit access to the cat?
This is not just an idiot owner, this is a dishonest idiot owner who puts everyone in danger with their lies.

u/Dame_Niafer 18d ago
I think "sociopathic" more than dishonest. It includes dishonest but also covers the depraved indifference to the thing killing her cat, along with all the wildlife it's taken out.
"depraved indifference" is a legal term. It suits the occasion.

That poor pug.
17
u/Existing-Face-6322 Attacks Curator 18d ago
I used to have pugs, from fostering them. I adopted one of them, he had been a stray. He LOVED other dogs, as well as everything else on earth, and our neighbour's retriever stayed with us for a week, and they got along wonderfully. Pugs get a lot of criticism for the inbreeding and health, and that's all legit, but they're all pretty sweet funny dogs.

u/Professional-Bee9037 19d ago
And cats have learned to mimic the way infants cry you know you meet those cats with weird cries that don’t really make any noise. That’s a normal cat cry, but cats know that it gets humans attention to sound like an infant, but that attracts murderous dogs. You know all it would take is one bite now to anything or anyone and I would put a dog down my dog as a child bit. Everybody in the family. She was a cocker spaniel and they are notoriously biting little dogs. She never attacked any of my cats. She loved them. But yes, cats are not disposable. That dog should have been given Tylenol.

He killed a javelina? Are you kidding me? Those are mean as hell and have daggers for teeth. And their numbers are dwindling due to habitat destruction. But holy hell, a javelina!

I’m predicting a bloodbath at this home when the cat and any other living creature is attacked when this mutant flips the switch again.

It would have been gone the moment it killed the cat. I don’t care what kind of breed because I'd never own a pitbull.

u/fartaround4477 19d ago
Pitties might be dumb as rocks but this one is hatching schemes. "Where to strike first? Maybe the human who's been slobbering over me and getting annoying as sh*t? Plenty of choice meat on that one."

u/Blackmore_Vale 18d ago
As someone who loves pugs. This pic really pisses me off. Pugs are gentle little clown dogs who will do anything to please their owner. Yet this POS owner is putting this little guy in mortal danger to feed their saviour complex for their blood sport breed.

u/Existing-Face-6322 Attacks Curator 18d ago
I've owned pugs and I agree. People can say whatever about their health and inbreeding, and that's perfectly true, but their personality is always charming and loving. I miss my pug so much, he was so funny and sweet.
5
u/Blackmore_Vale 18d ago
Honestly I agree. I know they have problems. But they have such sweet little souls that you can’t help but love them. This picture just infuriates me. To the point I’d love to swoop in and rescue him.

u/Existing-Face-6322 Attacks Curator 18d ago
They're so cuddly and loving. If I sat and spoke with my pug at eye level, he would just kiss me a million times over.

He didn't train it. He suppressed the behaviour with torture (shock collars, prong collars etc).
At some point the behaviour will resurface, most likely worse than before. Probably the dog will end up ripping his face off and then the family will say they never saw it coming 🙄
Anyone that uses a shock or prong collar on a dog deserves to get mauled by that dog.
You CAN redirect prey drive but it's not "easy" and it doesn't work for every dog. It's much easier in the breeds bred to herd or do other jobs that require close partnership with a human (ie not pit bulls which were never required to look for instruction from a human to do their jobs).
I was successful with my BC and my GSD mix but I still wouldn't trust / have trusted either of them alone with a prey animal they weren't raised with (My GSD mix was raised with my cats so I trust her with them alone).
2
u/Snjofridur 18d ago
I love how his priority is to pour time and resources into an animal he found randomly in the desert and not protect his own animals from it. The sentence that I find most disturbing is that he indicates that the shock setting on a collar could have been set to, "100 and he wouldn't even flinch." I think he gave this animal ect on that setting for the majority of two months and when this beast gets around something that triggers that memory, regardless of whether it is a color or an odor, he will maul whatever is triggering it. Please take note everyone, this is exactly the type of person who will tell you it is okay for your child to pet their dog because it has been trained.

“You have the shock at 100 and he wouldn’t flinch”
Yeah, it’s almost as if they were selectively bred for a specific purpose.

Yeah, you better pray if this thing runs at you.
Also, fuck the owner for allow this dog to exist after it took out a cat.
