What can happen if you leave child alone with aggressive breed of dog

[Brindlebtch]

Another piece of trivia! The most decorated canine during WWII was a Bull Terrier mix named Stubby.

My pittie, Sierra, is a Petey look-a-like. And this is what happens when you leave a finicky toddler with a hungry pitbull...

(PS--Forgive my disastrously messy house!!)

Ahem, well...........I have also been known to draw on my dogs........

Much to their dismay.

Dude.....it's like a Boston Terrier and a Staffy bred! Weird!!!!

 

[Brindlebtch]

Yeah, Stubby was a strange looking little dog. I think it looks more like a Staffy Bull cross because the head has too much break for a Bull Terrier cross. And it's ears are cropped. Clearly somebody thought it was worth cropping it's ears. It was a very loyal and smart little dog, whatever it was.

When we were in England the non-show Staffordshire Bull Terriers looked more like Am Staffs or pits than the American version of Staffordhire Bull Terriers. It was surprising how large they were.

Hey, Rodriguezpoultry, it just occurred to me, are you talking about Stubby or my dog?

 

[rodriguezpoultry]

Yours.......LOL! I'm sorry!!

 

[Brindlebtch]

OH MY GOD!!! THE SHOCK!!!! THE HORROR!!!!!

I'M NOT SURE I CAN TAKE IT!!!!!!

No worries! Different strokes and beauty is in the eye and all that.

He was having a serious case of puppy geeks in those pictures. We used to call him Pumpkin Head because he was sort of built like a tadpole, all head. He is a west coast style dog and perfectly acceptable in the breed ring and finished easily. In the previous photos he probably weighed 50lbs.

Here he is at 70lb:

He was a good boy.

He was a good boy? Oh dear, doggies just don't last long enough. That's what keeps me from having another, it broke my heart when my Molly died

He was a beautiful dog!

 

[Brindlebtch]

Thank you Reinbeau. He died at 14 which is pretty good for a big ol' dog like that.
