A good deal of the problem is (again IMHO) the ‘bully breeds’: Staffordshire, bull terrier, pit bull terrier and the bulldogs are “labor intensive, with the gangsta s***heads paying them the exact opposite kind of attention they require.
I have admitted here in the past that I have come to close to some of these benighted creatures so that I was close to popping a thumbsnap. Some of them might require shooting, and it might be doing them a favor.
All responsible owners ask is that the public not smear us with the same brush.
