I still fucking hate these dogs.

Cesar Millan done changed my opinion that some dogs are just inherently bad. Cesar is a dude.

3rd one from left is terrifying

his spotted pink nose will haunt your dreams

i'm sorry. the big fucking one looks like the devil.

You're not sorry.

Damned ear clippers! If the ears flopped like they're s'posedta, she (I'm guessing the big one is mom to the others) would be a lot less scary-looking.

i walked such a cute puppy (well, 11 months old) last night at the shelter. very vivacious, sweet personality. too skinny, but still insanely strong. i hope she finds a nice, firm, patient owner.

I want the one second from the right.

That white one looks like it'll grow up to be the spitting image of my brother's old dog, Brewster -- one of the sweetest dogs ever to walk the earth. Too bad he turned out to be a car-chaser on a road with a 55 mph speed limit -- RIP.

My girlfriend has a 6 month old pit puppy, he's the greatest. Nicest dog and wouldn't hurt a flea.

we want picjurz

u not gonna fuk w/me my pitubll will fuck ur shit up u fuckin faggot you setpepin man

setpepin?

A happy ending, after all.

I still don't understand the appeal.

That's because you are an idiot.

Seriously they are dogs just like any other smart working dog. Just because they have the misfortune of having a lot of asshole owners doesn't mean they are "ugly" or "ill-tempered" or "dangerous". A good number of the sweetest and coolest dogs I've met have been pits.

adorable!

Yeah, dude. My friend's pb, Peaches, is AWESOME. She's happiest with her head in your lap.

Dogs be dogs, yo. Treat 'em right, and they'll be good.

You wouldn't think that would be so hard to understand. The Bad-Rap page has lots of the Vick dogs ready for adoption now, and even some of the ones covered with fight scars are listed as child-friendly, dog-friendly and cat-friendly.

B L A M O T M ^^^

tho the most oblivious jerks do always seem to have these dogs capable of eating yr face in one bite - somewhat unsettling

the other day at the basketball courts this girl had the cutest little gray pit puppy and she was being really awful to it - so gross - she and her friends were sitting right behind the basket when the ball bounce over towards them and this dude was like yo if that ball hits us one more time that its going over the fence - we were all you know yr sitting right next to a basketball court right - fucking people wtf

There was a white pit mix running around loose with no collar in my neighborhood last week. I was carrying some groceries home and it walked up to me. Well, more like ambled. Anyway, after it sniffed my hand it brought me a stick.

TERRIFYING!

It was about then a guy nearby called it home from his porch.

he prolly figured you wouldn't taste very good.

Or that you'd keep.

Banjo is having some issues with 2nd year bitchiness; she's taken to picking fights with like, one dog out of forty, for no reason that we can discern. Also, it's Spring and windows are open and she's barking more now. We're working on it with her.
Still cute as a goddamn button. I have a buncha pics to upload somewhere.

I'm horribly embarrassed by this, but it's fair estimate that we're spending upwards of seven hundred bucks a month on that fuckin' dog. Shoulda probably just adopted a kid.

$700?!?! Has it got horrible medical problems or something?

the maulings do add up!

(i'm only kidding at this point - i'm sure your dog is very sweet)

see-thru pitties?

Hey Oily, what happened to those blue pitties that your coworker had?

I gotta say that the rabid OMG dogs rule people suck pack is as annoying as the WEAPONS OF MASS DOGSTRUCTION cheetos but hey can't everyone bennie from a visit or two by the Cesar?

Wow, that was a couple of temp gigs ago, kingfish. I hope they found good, loving homes.

The considerable monthly bill comes from five-day-a-week doggie daycare; we got banjo when my gal was working out of the house and we agreed that we'd board her where she could run around rather than keeping her in a crate all day if gal ever got an office gig... and here we are.

GHOST DAWG

Growl of an engine
Truck owner lifts hood, gets scare of his life
By Kimberly K. Fu
Article Launched: 05/07/2008 05:56:41 AM PDT

When a Vacaville man's truck engine failed to purr as usual Tuesday morning, he popped the hood to administer a routine dose of chemical healing.

And got the scare of his life when he saw the glowing eyes and fierce growl of a female pit bull nestled near the engine block.

"Once I had a cat jump out at me," said Walter Witthoeft, in regard to critters being found reclining under the hood of his Ford F-150. "I wasn't ready for this this morning. ... My daughter works for the SPCA and I didn't know what to do. So I called her and left her a voice message. She called back and I said (to her), 'you're not gonna believe this.' "

Witthoeft made the discovery around 7 a.m. as he walked to his truck, which was parked near his home at the Alamo Garden Apartments. He encountered a male pit bull circling the vehicle and continued on, shortly deciding the truck needed a little power steering fluid.

So he popped the hood, and suddenly thought he was meeting his Maker.

"I seen eyes and it was growling at me," he recalled.

The dog nestled in the engine compartment wore no identification tag and seemed a bit put out regarding the situation, Witthoeft said. He could only surmise that the male pit bull and the one under the hood were together, possibly brother and sister, and were playing.

"When the female got stuck, the male jumped on my hood," he said.

Paw prints on his hood backed up his theory.

A probe later revealed that the imbedded dog had come up from under the driver's side and got stuck.

"It got scared and started chewing," Witthoeft said. "I was really angry."

The emotion was understandable, as Witthoeft had just gotten his truck back from his mechanic, who had replaced the starter. Then the truck had an unfortunate meeting with the dog, who chewed not only through the fuel line, but also some electrical wiring. The truck is now back at the shop, and Witthoeft is wondering how slim his wallet will become.

Vacaville Police Sgt. Rick Elm described the event as unique, the first he's experienced after 20 years on the force.

"I thought I'd seen it all. I rolled on this call and, sure thing, I hadn't," he said.

Elm said officers tried offering the dog water, but it wouldn't drink. Further contact was considered risky. Eventually, though, it crawled out from the engine to freedom.

"Once it got up on the hood, we could see it was more docile," Elm said. A rope leash was placed around the dog's neck and Humane Animal Services led the dog away.

The dog appeared healthy, Elm said, and remains in the custody of Humane Animal Services.
