Nope. Responsible owners control their dogs and don’t let their restricted breed roam free.
Responsible owners muzzle their restricted breeds
Or any dog.
Responsible owners control their dogs and don’t let their restricted breed roam free.
Ah come on.. Even with my limited English I can see flaws in that sentence.
Please explain the flaw. Was it that I missed a s on one word? If you wish you can pay for a Grammerly account for me.
It's not a grammar..
Responsible owners control their dogs
and don’t let their restricted breed roam free.
It's the way you've put it together to make a sentence.
As far as I know, no dogs are allowed to be unleashed in public..apart from designated places. That's how I understand how it supposed to work here.
I thought this thread was about dangerous dogs rather than rather a forum on the perfect queens English?
So, so, Sorry I teased you. You got me back. Feel good for starters.
Roam free my friend hope your dog is happy, muzzled and on a leash.
I am flattered you took the time to help my continous personal development.
Again I'm not talking about the grammar in your post. Haha, I'm the last one who would complain about someone else's grammar. I'm pretty sure I'm breaking English grammar rules in my posts all the time. So no, not trying to fix your English.
I think, we shouldn't be making differences when it comes to dog breeds. Rules should be the same for all dog owners. So no one gets a free pass, when it comes to control of the dogs.
And I think, this thread is more about dangerous owners, rather than dogs...
Unfortunately you still won't accept that some breeds are more dangerous than others and you mock small dogs "the size of rabbits". Whats the attraction of owning big dogs for you?
There's no dangerous breeds. Put it simply, dogs usually becoming aggressive, when humans fooks up.., starting with some breeders, some owners, etc.. Of course I understand, there are dogs capable of inflicting significant damage or even kill, when messed up badly. Aggressiveness is not a breed specific.
I don't mock small dogs, was just using rabbit as size example. Have friends with multiple small dogs and I like small, middle sized and big dogs..
"Aggressiveness is not a breed specific" ....agreed but an XL bully can inflict much more damage than a poodle
Sorry, rather than edit my post above, I will rephrase it here:
Responsible owners control their dogs don’t let them roam free.
Responsible owners don’t get restricted breeds.
When a 11 year child gets attacked by a dog, it is not because they “fooked” up
There is no reason anyone in Ireland needs a XL bully or pit bull.
Happier now?
Nah this isn't accurate.
There is a reason labradors and retrievers are used as guide dogs and rottweilers and pitbulls are used as guard dogs.
And the absolute worst are Jack Russells, but they are no threat to anyone over the age of 6.
Pitbulls dont make good guard dogs
My take on it, is for most people who do not own dogs, have no way of knowing how responsible a dog owner is when you come into contact with them. The simple fact is the owner is the person with the power and has an obligation to do something having control over or care for the dog and others, as part of one's job or role as dog owner.
Just to be clear, I don't really care about the semantics of "how do you even define a pitbull".
Let's put it another way. There's a reason no-one is training XL bullies as guide dogs.
I did not insult you. Nothing is clear in your passive agreement post.
FYI I am not an EXPERT, but just like many many posters here, I can grasp the simple concept that some dogs are capable of inflicting serious damage.
Others like a jack russel might be little ****, but they are not capable of inflicting serious damage.
There is a reason why the dogs you list are on the restricted breeds list. And no I can’t be arsed checking if you list is 100% accurate before some twit correct me on that
Just to be clear , you were defining the XL Bully .
Lets put it another way , guard dog trainers woundn't pick an XL bullie to train as a guard dog.
You insulted me by implying i am visually impaired , no need for it .
because the guard dog trainer doesn’t want to be attacked either
Ok sorry about that.
I am also sorry you don’t understand this sentence “Responsible owners don’t get restricted breeds.”
Again that line was not in your post ,you only mentioned 2 breeds , which is what i commented on .
No, because they cannot be trained. You need to be able to control your guard dog; that is not the case with the XL bully. At least you can train a Doberman or a Rottweiler.
Let's put it yet another way. There is a reason lowlife scrotes buy these dogs. And it's not because they make wonderful family pets.
Sorry, my fellow poster.
Please refer to my post you have linked too, third sentence.
I hope you find "Responsible owners don’t get restricted breeds" clear and unambgoious.
Perhaps you too can be clear and unambgoious. Do you have a position? Do you own a restricted breed? Do you muzzle your dog in public? Or do you have a XL thing?
in public, right?
Because I do let my three run around freely in safe locations at least twice a day (and that's not in our garden, they have an access to it all the time). When walking public areas, always on the lead, no exception.
Well at least we found something we can agree on.
But the rest of your post is a bit questionable?
Whic bit is questionable?
This:
Or this ?
There are plenty of responsible owners of restricted breeds so it's a massive generalisation to claim all such owners are irresponsible.
Well that's a bit of twisted outcome from what I've said, isn't it? (See, that's why I recommended to you to learn to read before)
?? Well there's no reason anyone in Ireland needs a chihuahua or whatever...
And another questionable one imho.
Since these lists are being compiled by "experts" , one of these days one of your dogs might end up on that list, so by your funny logic, you'll become irresponsible owner.
See....
I see that you wrote “ But the rest of your post is a bit questionable?”
So I see that you are in no position to lecture anyone on reading skills. Read you own post before criticising others please
Well, I'm certainly not trying to somehow twist others posts to suit my narrative.
Maybe you are right tho, reading is fine, but comprehension is on the low side.
Who knows.
I'm certainly not judging anyone by the dog breed they own 😉
