    I actually have an Antebellum Bulldog (read: PIT BULLS are not allowed on post, so I have an Antebullem), and he is the most gentle, loving dog I have ever known. They really do get a bad wrap, completely uncalled for. Because they are used in dog fights by f*cking soulless assh0les, doesn't mean all pits are insane killers.

    @ Western: I couldn't agree more.

    That dog looks like a real killer enfidl.Smile [:)]

    It always saddens me to see animals of a certain breed vilified in the way Pits are, I have a large soft spot for dogs in particular and I hate to see them in bad situations because they can do nothing to change it. And it's for that reason that I have a deep loathing for all the ignorance and cruelty towards animals that exists in this world.

    I absolutely love Pits. If they are raised properly, they are no more "dangerous" than an ankle biter. Unfortunately man has built the bad reputation for them and they can't do anything to stop it. That's why I really like people like Shorty Rossi.

    And Cesar Milan and Brandon Bond. Brandon Bond isn't too well known outside of the tattoo community, but he is one of the most succesful artists/business owners there is within the tattoo world. He does a HUGE amount to help rescue pits and spread awareness.

    It's the pits with two assh*les that you need to watch out for and that give the others a bad rep.

    The one God gave 'em, and their thugee owner.

    You've got a handsome boy yourself there brother. I love dogs in general, but am especially fond of German Shepherd mix-breeds and pits. Also Boxers, but I don't have one of those, lol.

    Just noticed, but you also have my taste in booze, Cpt Morgan's and JW Black, lol. Nice.
