I just want to say that I am a lover of dogs and don't have issues with dogs. I do have some issue with some of their owners however. Last Thursday is not the best atmosphere for most dogs to be in. There are hundreds of people milling around, it's loud, it's chaotic, there's fire spinning around. Unless your dog is extremely socialized to large crowds or perhaps a circus performer then maybe it would be best to leave him/her home for this night. Your dog would probably be happier.

I have known many people who humanize their pets. Dogs aren't humans they are dogs. they follow dog codes of behavior. If you do not understand this you should not own a dog. You especially should not own a pitbull. ( I do not hate pitbulls, my x owned a pitbull which I lived with for 10 years until he died, the dog that is. I loved the dog but he was not a dog that was safe to take out in public. He was extremely aggressive to other animals, which is how pitbulls are specifically bred to be.)

Last night, not for the first time, I found myself in the middle of a dogfight on Alberta. The participating dogs were both pitbulls. One was on a leash and the other who was not on a leash jumped on him. The owner of the unleashed dog pulled his dog off the other and kept his dog on a leash for 5 maybe 10 minutes. Then he had a talk with his "little buddy" and told him that that other dog did not want to play and proceeded to unleash his pet. Many people asked him to leash his dog and he did not because he felt his dog was not a problem and was happier offleash. The same dog tried to go into my friends house up the street. She is afraid of dogs and I shoed the dog out of her house. The owner was nowhere in sight.

Sorry for my rant, but I'm sick of it.

My dog doesn't bite, he's vegan.

Dummy up, you hippy fuck, you own a dangerous animal. Treat him as such.
