    I understand how this looks with it being my first post and all, but I have never even thought of a forum for our pitties. Well, this breaks my heart, but it has gotten to the point where we don't know what else to do. Unfortunately, we have gotten to a point where we are unable to give her what she needs to live a good quality life. She is a 2 year old pure blooded pit bull. She has some fear aggression (found out it wasn't dog aggression). Her fear aggression comes from being afraid of being attacked, so she is quick to defend herself. To people, she is an absolute sweetheart. She is great with kids and adults (male and female). She is great on a leash, and she is very responsive to humans and their commands. She is a very quick learner as well. Her only problem seems to be with other loose animals. She pays no mind to the chameleons we have caged up, but she will go after a cat if she sees one (high prey drive). She is spayed also. In the end, she should go to a one (loose) animal home, or be crated unless supervised with other dogs. It would be preferable if the owner had some experience with dogs, but it would go just as well if an unexperienced owner went through a basic obedience course with her to get the hang of how to teach/give commands. As a puppyhttp://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...s/IMG_0060.jpghttp://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...s/IMG_0061.jpgCurrenthttp://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...0/Pets/042.jpghttp://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...0/Pets/041.jpghttp://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...0/Pets/040.jpghttp://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...0/Pets/032.jpghttp://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...0/Pets/011.jpghttp://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...0/Pets/010.jpghttp://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...0/Pets/009.jpgPlease help me. The last thing I want to do is post onto craigslist for some dirtbag to pick her up and use her to fight, and I dont want to take her to a shelter for fear of her being euthanized. I want her to be a part of someone's family and not an outside dog. I live just north of Austin, but would be willing to come up on a weekend to transport her wherever needed. I am currently in the process of going through a dog training school, and would be willing to meet on a few occasions in the near future about basic obedience training. If you are interested at all, you can let me know on here, or give me a call/text at 817-602-seven zero five five. Whenever I can get my household under control and get more experience as a trainer under my belt, I will be looking to bring pit bulls and other bully breeds into my training program and do specialized training with them. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.I also have another dog that I will be rehoming that is not a bully breed if anyone is able to help with finding a home for her. These dogs should NOT go to the same home or be left alone together.The other dog is our 4 year old Shepherd/Chow mix. She is a very independent dog, but once she attaches to someone, she will love to be around them. She is also pretty quick to learn new tasks. She has more of a dominant type towards other dogs, but knows that humans are higher in the hierarchy. She is leash trained with a pinch collar, but I am confident that with more work, she could be changed to a different type training collar. http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...0/Pets/001.jpghttp://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r.../Pets/izz2.jpghttp://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...ets/Retard.jpghttp://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...s/SNV30505.jpgDaniel

    Maya is so pretty and seems like a nice dog, I see she gets along with other dogs as well, how is she around cats and children? What about a dog park? I have a boston terrier

    Can anyone please help... Hello, I'm reaching out to you in hopes that you can rescue a pittie at the Pflugerville Shelter. This boy is as URGENT as it gets. Pflugerville does not have a "euth list" so we never know when it will happen but several comments have been made by the Animal Control Officers about River. Pflugerville is a tiny shelter and the animal control officers are the ones who euthanize. To add more to the urgency, is that the Pflugerville Shelter is under investigation for not euthanizing the animals properly. We have got to this boy out....We had a trainer come by on Monday and take a look at him. River is very scared at the shelter and his hind legs shake when someone enters his dog run with him. Once you enter and sit down, he try's to approach but shakes so much he just sits down.... Is there anything you can go to help??? Can you run an ad for him on the examiner or possibly take him in to your rescue? Here's is picture... he's currently unaltered about 2-3 yrs old. As you can see he's a handsome boy.. but he needs out of the shelter. A foster home with older kids would be best for him. He'll need some quiet time, and time to adjust. He's NOT dog aggressive and cats are unknown.... but he seems to be fine with other dogs... and he avoids conflict. the volunteers are very worried about him... I'm sure if a chip-in can be created to help with his rescue, we would all chip-in and spread the word. Please, please help! Please email me at kmyles79@me.com
