And the Cutest Pit Bull is....

NUBS!

Ok, nothing officially, but look at that face?!?!? How can you NOT like him???? It's photos I catch like this that make me really wonder how people can have such negative views of the breed. So many cities and states are trying to pass breed specific laws right now, and people don't realize, the photo above is what they are really banning, not what they like to think.

These dogs don't want to be mean, they don't want to wonder where their next meal is coming from. All they want is a warm bed, food in their bellies, people to love them, and something to do. That's all they ask for. Why do we, we humans, take this away from them? Why do we toss our "pets" to the curb for anything and everything? Like my neighbor up the road who kept her Shepherd Mutt after they moved in with her parents again. Instead of finding her a new home, they keep her chained to a tree 24/7, where she howls and barks 24/7. It's 7*F outside, and she is shivering in her little dog house, just crying and waiting for her owners to come out and give her a pat on the head. She LIVES for that short scratch on the head.

We are the problem, not the dogs. We treat our "pets" like garbage and they turn around and act like it.

Just remember, you get what you put into your dog. Take the extra time to give them some training and some love, and you'll get the best dog back.
