I am not an expert here, but it seems to me that this is problematic.

Sounds like a recipe for disaster to me. I feel sorry for those dogs...the first time there is incident, he's going to be forced to put them down. Pretty sad.

Sad is right. This excerpt is quite telling: "......Eison agrees it would be embarrassing to be seen with a neutered dog."

But there's much much more of a very disturbing nature. BTW, the link works if you copy and paste the whole thing.

Isn't this old news posted awhile ago? I can't remember, but wasn't it proved to be fake or something? If not, can we just neuter the idiot in the article? Give him some neuticles! He'll be none the wiser!

Oh, I thought it rang a bell........ you're right; it popped up here a full year ago.

I owned and was owned by two Staffordshire bull terriers, the english pit bull. Quite similar to an american pit but smaller 14 to 16 in tall and around 37lbs. We lost our male at 17 and our female at 14 two months after the male passed.

People like this guy are the reason many great dogs have to be put down and why there is such a media frenzy to ban the bully breeds. <img src="http://www.leerburg.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> Its a travesty because my two dogs were the most loving dogs I have ever owned. Dog agressive? yes but it was mainly to see if there was a fight to be had, not to necessarily initiate one. But it was as much my fault as theirs, I didn't socialize them to other dogs properly. Agression toward people, only twice and that was because my children were threatened. Both times my male put hisself between the threat and my kid. He made it abundantly clear that there would be no violence inflicted on my family and once the person backed down he became the same friendly dog he always was and yes even toward the perpetrater of the incident. We miss them still.

Guys like this one hopefully will go to jail for a very long time if one of his dogs hurts someone and I wish there were some way to stop these idiots. I'm rambling, I find this mentality upsetting. Sorry.

If it is real...I'm gonna take a road trip to kick this guy where it hurts. If it's not, sorry for the dumb post.

If it is real, I'm not sure how to respond to this... I Have a very quizical look on my face and I guess I'm questioning just "WHY" the animal control wouldn't come and take these animals from him? (If it's real)

the link won't work for me, could someone post a link addy that works?

I mentioned in my post that the broken link worked if you copy and paste it. It still does; I just retried it. <img src="http://www.leerburg.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
