Let's See Your Dogs!!

Hey guys thanks for posting the pics of your pups and best friends but I just finished watching a story on a news program and they were talking about a group of people who were arrrested in a dog fighting ring less than 15 feet from a nursery. I can only hope they lock these SOB's up for no less than 10 years. They reported puppies were stolen from yards to antagonize the adults and practice the killing of dogs by other dogs. One puppy had an eye missing while another dog had a broken leg that had grown back crooked. They are removing that dog's leg this morning and the one eyed puppy is now under vet care in the Cook County area (Chicago). I don't know what posses these pricks to act so inhumanely but if it's money I hope they continue to slap these MF's in irons and place them in jail indefinetly May they all rot in hell-). It really bothers me that children would see this kind of activity in dog fighting as you can now guess how they view animals in their treatment of them. What a way to influence a youngster early in his life.

I apologize to all of you but I can only imagine Tank or the other pics of our loving family members being used as fodder for these worthless sh_theads.

IMHO Michael Vick didn't serve long enough to act as a deterrent....apparently these a_s wipes just didn't get the memo....I say lock their sorry a_ses up and throw away the key.

Again I apologize for the ranting on here but wanted all of us to be aware of what was going on in some of our communities....Love ur animals whatever they might be.

 

Don't lock them up, just put them in the pen with the dogs and see how well they like being torn apart. Give them some of their own medicine.

I have a neighbor who has two pits... they seem friendly enough UNTIL there is a female in heat back there, but that's another story. The "dad' is teaching the dog to hang from a rope tied in the tree. Just what that dog needs is more strength in his jaws.

 

You do not have to apologize. Anyone who does this to defenseless animals is beyond sick. But what did our nation, our children learn from Michael Vick? Absolutely f&cking nothing. He served a small amount time, I am sure seperated from general, and when he got out, he got his job back and became a star again. I know the NFL is a business, but the fact they allowed him back in is against morals. And they say they have a code of conduct? Kids look up to these "stars". I believe when you pay for your crime, then you are good with the house. But he didn't pay for it, not the way the rest of us would. I absolutely LOVE football, but the conduct of some of these "men" is out of hand. If he were a cop or doctor, he never would have worked again. Ok thats my rant>

 

My baby Tyson.

 

How nice of Tyson to keep you bed warm when your not in it! (mine does the same thing)

 

Just a heads up No "Pit Bull" should be human aggressive. So putting the men in the pit with the dog will not result in anything but petting and loving. If any dog bites a human without a good reason it should take a dirt nap. I mean a real aggressive bite.
Oh and depending what your neighbor does with his dog, there is nothing wrong with working them out. As a matter of fact giving them something to do will stop them from having that extra energy to destroy things, Ie: gradens, fence, furniture.
I work out and so should most people, to stay in shape and live a healthy life, so do my dogs.
These dogs have a drive like no other and if we don't help direct it they will decide what to do with it, and their judgement isn't as good as a responsible owner. I'd rather steer them in the right direction.

Turb0wned I have one that loves my section of bed.

 

Hi Tyson welcome to TW. Are you a bed pig or a bed warmer....LOL

 

Lol yup he his. Ive gotten soooo used to him sleeping with me i cant kick him off. He NEVER smells anyways, all natural foods work miricles. He has ate all real all natural dog food since i brought him home at 3 weeks. You guys should all look into it. The crap they sell at the supermarket isnt good all it is are filler grains and no real meat, corn, soy, wheat, by products. In the long run u will save money on vet bills with a healthy diet. Also specific dog breed legislation needs to stop. There are no better dogs than pitbulls. ANY dog will bite another dog or human if it was never socialized with new people or animals.

 

What are you feeding? I use Timberwolf organics. No corn or fillers. I use a variety for Bailey. The outside dogs get a similar food yet cheaper form Tractor supply, Can't recall the name at the moment. Reading up on a BARF diet right now.

 

This is my Spanish Water Dog, Tango at 10 weeks.

 

Timberwolf organics is a pretty good food I like the ingredients. I feed him Innova Evo. Its the closest thing you can get to a raw diet in kibble. Its high in protein and low in carbs. All meat protein no grains what so ever. Another on I like that I switch him to from time to time is California Natural, made by the same company its a reallllly simple food but a good one. I used to work part time at an all natural dog food and supply place so Ive dont ALOT of research on this stuff, I also worked there with a trainer/ dog nutritionist. Also when I do give him a bath its also with an all natural shampoo. Everyone that sees him can believe how nice and shinny his coat is and they don't believe all it is, is the food I feed him.

Heres a few good brands

-Innova and Innova Evo
-California Natural
-Canidae (If you want to switch to an all natural food but don't want to spend to much this is a great choice, its all natural and a good price)
-Fromm Family, another good one
-Solid Gold, although me myself ive never like it so much it is still a very good brand

 

Thanks for the info I am always willing to learn.

 

Welcome to TW Tango....by chance do you dance? Speak a foreign language? Give lots of kisses?

 

Thanks for the info as well. I serve my mob "Blue" and sometimes mix it with Chef Michael's. They seem to like it and it seems to degrade outside in the yard as well.

 

Thank you all for the dogfood info! I'm going to look into the Canidae. I use Diamond Naturals--no corn or crap there either. I've done a lot of reasearch myself, but I can't afford the really high-end stuff. Sure can't now that I have 3 and James eats five cups a day! Total I feed them 9.5 cups of food per day, half in the morning, half at night. lol!

 

Ha! Not the dance, its for the letter "T" in the phonetic alphabet. I used to drive a commercial boat with the call sign that started to WT... it was either Tango or Whiskey.

 

Wait till they start lining up for lunch....just a little snack those little eyes will say....LMAO....ok so we spoil them it's the exercise afterwards that kills me....

 

My two start begging for dinner starting about 4 in the afternoon (supper time is 6) Can't turn those big brown eyes down... so they get a treat.... What can I say, I'm a sucker..

 

Feeding something like the evo might sound expensive BUT if ur dog is eati g 5 cups a day with the evo he will prob only be at 3. How much does he weight?

 

x2 Put my name on the sucker list as well....No one can tell our dogs don't know how to play us.......
