No - it's not what you think.
But don't bring your 70 pound pit bull to the dog park to work out his issues. Apparently he likes to "Lie down" on smaller dogs. So he tried that with Rory and the ensuing fight caused me to physically PICK UP A 70 POUND PIT BULL BY THE COLLAR. Then snatch my 18 pound poodle cross from out from under his bone crushing teeth.
Okay, he's a pit bull. But my dog was on a leash and doesn't have any issues. She plays well with others. And I get that pits have a bad rap. I also have wonderful friends who adore their pits. All good. But don't bring your fucking Pomeranian to the dog park if he's unreliable.
Then the dude says, "I'm sorry. If we could just work on this one thing!"
So guess what. You know your fucking dog has a problem and you still let him run unleashed in a dog park with other dogs.
WTF? REALLY WTF? DO I LOOK LIKE THE FUCKING DOG WHISPERER TO YOU?
Fix your dog! Then make sure he is safe to socialize with other dogs. Train him. Then when he's safe. Bring him to the dog park.
So now my fucking back feels like I've torn something. And guess what? I probably have. I'm not used to cleaning and jerking 70 pound pit bulls.
