quick question

[Unregistered]

I got a brendal pitbull female and she littered a bunch of pitbull mutts which we kept 1 of. so together we have the female mom and the 7 month old baby mutt. on top of that my roomate got a fullbreed red nose diamond pitbull today. the rednose is an aggressive dog towards other dogs. he would never hurt a human. how can we get all the dogs in the house to get along without keeping them on a schedule? please help any input would be greatly appreciated

You can't.

What is a "fullbreed red nose diamond pitbull"??? As for the whole getting along thing..you might as well give it up. APBT's are not pack animals. It is the nature of the breed to be dog aggressive, my best advice to you is to either keep them seperated 24/7 or get rid of one of them. At this rate there is bound to be an accident sooner or later, probley sooner rather than later..LOL. Hope you have a good breaking stick handy...JMO

Sadly, they will NEVER all get along. If you want them inside, I suggest in investing in some wire kennels & do the crate & roatate thing (have 1 or 2 dogs crated while the other is loose in the house & then rotate them around). You can also tie them up outside where they can't reach each other for outside time.

maybe, but it takes much time and an understanding of dog behavior. yes pit bulls are fighters, but they are still just dogs! they are no different "except more smarter" then other dogs. please i hate to say this but if you want the world to look highly of this breed then please be more detailed on the facts of this. This how you own a pit as a game dog/=never to be around other dogs" which is a good idea!. but if someone is looking for answers for a house dog then why would you tell them the things like you can't do anything about aggressive behavior in pit bulls? this is adding to the hate on this breed! it takes the right person to own this breed and if u are not educated and ready then do not get this breed . different dogs have different jobs/kind of get?

Because you cannot do anything about dog aggressivness in a pit bull. It has been bred into them for so long, it can never be bred out. Granted there are some dogs that will Tolerate others.. but one thing people often learn the hard way. IT is better to tell people the truth.. remember..human aggression and animal aggression are 2 different things. But alot of problems with the pit bulls stem from people not taking percautions or understanding the other dog aggression.. It is simply a fact of the breed and if more "pet" people understood it, there would be less problems. And also, do not confuse game dogs with aggression. any dog can be aggressive ..it is not a game bred dog speific trait

I agree.. people do need to understand the two types of aggression, and it has to be managed. Good post!
