The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

i agree with the rest.why in the hell would you be on this site talking about using a "gamebred apbt" as a guard dog?only thing i could think of is DUMB ASS. even if you didnt write it, but you prob did, you are a fricking twit.i hope you dont enjoy your stay.

Yeah... I hear that they're great protection dogs. I also agree that our hounds should NOT be used as guard dogs...they'll protect their families naturally and when necessary. I can appreciate an animal that still performs the original task for what it was bred & used for....therefor, if I want a guard dog I will go with a Rottie (which I used to own in the 90's), American Bulldog, or even a Fila....certainly not an apbt. I mainly just posted the article because it shows that our dogs can do anything any other breed can do (or even better in some cases) and then whip it's a$$ when he gets through. But I agree...they shouldn't be used as guard dogs...especially in this day & age.

Damn madam...are you serious? You seem emotionally charged lol. Let's not get your panty hose in wad... I didn't know what a game dog was in 1981....relax. I usually don't get caught up in an internet mud slingin' match....it's pointless...like bringin' a cold hound to [].

HOWEVER...... I get the point...some novice may read the article and think it's cool to have a human aggressive apbt.....so I feel ya...but you have me confused and profoundly so.

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

But wait, werent Rotties herding dogs originally? :confused: I would be careful with a Fila, they are serious dogs and even when you think your ready, you still might not be lol
I would get a Mossler breed though, mine at age 2 just realized what she was supposed to do.

Lol it was actually pretty scary, 125lbs of pissed off bitch trying to get over a table to get at you is not the way you want to be greeted :lol:
It took me like 10 times of saying her name to get her to realize I wasnt some random person, and even then she growled at me and grumbled like she was baiting me into the house

 

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

Yeah..ur right....they were also used for herding.

Man!! That was something serious...sounds like she had you hemmed up.....glad you were able to calm her down lol.

 

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

They are good deterrents though and sometimes thats all you need, but every Rottie I ever met was a sucker for baby talk, even the "guard dog" ones would melt for some of that lol

It was one of those high up windows so it was awkward getting up and partway in and once I was up there I was kind of stuck lol thank God for the table though. If they didnt slobber so much I would love another EM, they are damn good dogs.

 

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

Pookie then you should have babytalked one of mine lol!

 

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

Its worth a try! Lol you never know, IMO thats a good way to see if a dogs gonna bite you or not. I pissed off a dude who owned a lot with a bunch of cars on it by baby talking his "protection" Rottie onto its back LOL
Although not all dogs are like that, so yours may not have done shit and ended up trying to get me

 

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

there needs to be a way that you can delete stupid shit like this. Because stupidity is contagious. People repeat the shit there hear regardless if it's right or wrong. So why would you add fuel to the fire? Dr. Lector i think is a under cover mike vick. All jokes aside can you set a limt to dumb posts say 3 a month

 

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

Pookie just one story to tell.......

One of my Rotts was launching at a friend of mine back then even he really did like this guy and has known him since a pup.
This guy was and still is arround my house almost on a daily base!
Once I didn´t hear him ringing as I was fixing some stuff he thought it would be ok to enter my yard and get into the house......
Well my Rott had a different kind of oppinion and nailed him down and this guy was better of not to move even an eyelid!

As I found them and came by the whole situation changed and the Rott have been again best friends with him!

 

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

who in the hell is going to start Baby talking a dog while that big SOB is lunging at you about to take a chunk outta your hind end i be damned and if it is a good dog that shit better not work

 

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

Uhm what the hell are you talking about?

Lol each dog is different, and even if you make a "friend" with one through a fence, hopping into the yard is a whole different story.

Lol well when your wanting into a yard for a reason, you will try all kinds of things, baby talk and food usually work because most people dont have "good" dogs and think because its a certain breed or because it barks its head off its going to do something when someone hops in.

 

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

Nope that one was silent and didn´t bark his head of!
He was just waiting and then bumping right in!

 

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

Nuff Sayd There!

 

Re: The "Game" Bred American Pit Bull Terrier as Family Guard and Defense Dog

Some people like to claim the Game bred pitbull as a jack of all trades kind of dog, but the game bred pitbull is only a master in one LOL.
