Found these lovely gems on a semi notorious gamebred "merle pit bull" breeders website. Hasn't it been established, beyond any doubt, that those breed ID tests don't work worth a damn??
For those skeptics, here is the dog in question. Does this look like a purebred APBT to you? I have owned Catahoulas, and deliberate 50/50 Catahoula/Pit crosses. I love the Catahoula, no issue with them at all. This dog screams "mix", to me.
From this same website, the breedings page. Read between the lines "We are too irresponsible to keep dogs separated so we are going to say "Its Gods will"", as if the Creator Of All Things (if He exists) gives a shit about what particular dog mates another dog....
Anyone know why these poor babies are so deformed? Sphynx kittens posted on a dog board recently. No idea who has them, but... What the hell IS this?!?!
Ok so "killer dog" is a little bit strong. The Caucasian can be a wonderful dog, submissive and loving and sweet, but nobody fools themselves into thinking he isn't still a Loaded Gun when danger threatens. And now we have Caucasians, undiluted (lol) from working stock, in dilute colors.
9 month old pit bull with slipping hocks, no breed type, and who knows what else going on structurally, can't tell with him eating out of a football. But hes intact! You can breed him! Hes hard to handle, because I am too damn lazy to get off my ass, unchain my pit bull puppy from the tree out back, and take him for a walk. Who doesn't want an untrained, ill mannered, unsocialized, half crippled puppy? You can breed him!
FIVE month old untrained crippled intact pit bull puppy! Doesn't walk on a leash but can sit! (sometimes). Noms your hand when you offer food (lovely!). Hes not "nuetured" so hes worth a lot because you can breed him. I thought I would be a sneaky SOB and have too many dogs but Animal Control isn't stupid, they're on to me! He will need rabies again (again? AGAIN? Hes FIVE months old? When was his first one?!?!?!). You too can have a flipper footed unsocialized ill mannered stud dog!
On a similar note, via craigslist and ebay classifieds, I have discovered new horrors in the Mad Scientist Laboratories of fad crossbreeds. Doberdoodles and Great Doodles. Doberman + Standard Poodle, and Great Dane + Standard Poodle.....
Enough with the bullies, lets talk about the most famous dipshit in the dog world, Cesar Milan. Abusive, ignorant, close minded, blind, SNAKE OIL SALESMAN. His solution to everything is to kick or choke out your dog. Literally. He calls hysterics, fear, excitement, enthusiasm, breed traits, everything under the sun, by the same trumped up name "aggression" and he ignores real aggression/warning behaviors, because he is too stupid or ignorant to see them. I can't count how many times I saw his precious widdle baby, Daddy, give him the stinkeye or guard his food from Cesar, and he didn't once even notice. Now I'm not a trainer, or a behaviorist, but I fucking listen to my own dogs and the dogs around me, when they talk to me with their body. And I don't attempt to shove every dog into the same mold. I don't ignore and disregard manmade breed traits that are stronger than instinct.
Before you DW fans go screaming at me, I HAVE read his books. I HAVE watched his show, just about every last darn episode of it. I HAVE met Cesar himself. I HAVE met dogs that he has "fixed" -shudder-.
I don't need to slander Cesar. I don't need to make up lies about Cesar. Its all right there, on his show, for all to see.
Tell me there isn't a million things wrong with this entire clip.
In the first 30 seconds I already want to cringe, he calls the leash pulling and barking "aggression" when its very clear the dog simply doesn't know how to not pull on a leash, and is out of control excited at the sight of over dogs. This dog has just been yanked around and kicked, he has never been shown clearly what is wanted of him. He is terrified of Cesar but still has NO clue what hes supposed to be doing.
And the idiot with the tug toy-- NO. You do NOT have complete attention from that Mal. The tug in your hand has the complete attention from that Mal. Put the toy down on a table and try to walk away with the dog and I guarantee he won't pay you any mind at all. I DO like the lovely heels and focus he is getting while he has the toy, but like food dependent training, it will only get you so far. I would rather see the dog looking at my face than at my hands.
I like that brings in low key dogs, but Cesar babbling about "energy" is just more snake oil salesman crap. Just because you are too stupid to see it Cesar, doesn't mean its invisible. Its body language, not ESP.
I love the positive attention that flirt poles got, and I definitely think Troy is probably a perfectly good dog, with no aggression at all, he just needs a working sort of owner, not the dumb soccer grandma he has. Why do people do this to themselves? If the dog doesn't suit your personality, sell the poor thing to someone who can use it!
This is what I get to see breeders proudly showing off. Shes two weeks from whelping. Yay! More stick straight puppies! Her size isnt bad, but shes grossly underdone, much much too terrier for the Am Bully. She should, more properly, be considered an APBT, but not even APBTs have such retarded structure. No angulation, anywhere. This dog is a roached box on sticks. At least her feet are nice.... Thats all I can say.
And then theres this. I don't know if I should laugh uncontrollably or rage and pull my hair out. (did I mention my blog is not worksafe?) (I tried to figure out a setting to only show the first few lines of a post until you clicked on the blog entry itself, and I can't find it, otherwise I would have done that here. Sorry!)
Whatever possessed someone to beg for a free pit bull puppy as a companion for their mixed breed Catahoula Lab thingiething. This is just the worst idea in the long sad history of bad ideas. "Oh but they will be the best of friends! I watched The Dog Whisperer!" I can almost hear their excuses.
And while I'm on craiglist, I swear if I see one more listing that says "my reptile has to go for 10 times more than its worth because I just don't hold it enough anymore and its lonely" MY BRAIN IS GOING TO EXPLODE. YES. EXPLODE. People. Its a snake. As long as you are throwing it a 60 cent mouse every couple days its happy as a pig in shit. And your shitty normal phase ball python (or your nasty normal phase corn snake. Or your underweight calcium deprived gecko) you got from Petco is not worth $150, not even with a 10 gallon tank included. (I know that wasn't dog related and I'm sorry. It won't happen again.)
A warning should accompany this: Don't watch while eating or drinking anything
Firstly the dog is DISGUSTING. Tons of loose flews and lips everywhere, floppy easty westy feet, nasty little tiny piggy eyes, dropped pinched (yellow?!) chest, short upper arm, short forearm, high rear what little you can actually see of the BODY of the dog and not his ugly face. And the music... Like they are presenting an award! The camera angles and jerking and panning all over almost made me nauseous and did hurt my eyes. Yikes. This guy needs an award for "How to not sell your dog". Nothing about this video makes me like this dog or his crackpot owner.
