    Have noted similar in the past.Personally i hate scumbuckets wether there crimes are against humans or animals though then again the two can be easily confused it seems.What defies logic is our justice systems inability to decipher between the two,seems as long as you can stand on your hind legs in the dock your judged human.

    To me it's about defenselessness.... animals, children, old people and people with disabilities.

    Nope, I would never consider myself defenseless, the minute I do I'll probably become a victim.

    I'd be interested to know what you and Trudes consider your 'defenses', and what you think you're defending against.

    Motherfuckers need their eyes pulled out. I feel sorry for the pit bulls too, pit bulls can actually be great dogs when raised and trained well, clearly these have been raised to be vicous, no doubt for dog fighting - which in my opinion is abuse. If they find those guys I hope they are hit hard. But they won't be.

    Dog fighting is big business in New Zealand. It's well organised, well patronised, well supported and lucrative. There's a good statistical probability that Kiwi Biker members are involved.

    But, like family violence, people just shut the fuck up until some poor innocent is maimed or killed.

    In this latest case of some poor old dog being stolen and used as live bait for trained killer dogs, I'll bet dollars to doughnuts that this isn't the first time that the owners of these animals have done such a thing.

    I predict that it is unlikely that the SPCA's reward will produce any tangible evidence that leads to a conviction.

    I also predict that there are Kiwi Biker members who will defend the owning of dangerous dog breeds, on the basis that it's not the dog's fault.
    Then I wish they would come forward so that i know who to put on ignore and have no respect for.

    But i must say, that coming from a family that has had a lot of involvement in dog handling including training dogs for the military and police, that the term 'dangerous dog breeds' is more emotive than factual. That said, unfortuanately, certain breeds are like knives, there is nothing wrong with them and they do have perfectly good uses and can be used for good but in the wrong hands they can also be used for many corrupt activities.
    FYI - The Staffordshire Bull Terrier ranks number 10 out of all dogs for 'best family dog' and best dog to have around children because of their natural instinct to be gentle with children and to be very tolerant of them. Unfortuanately with pitties, they have been bred for aggression that it has actually changed the psychological make up of the dog, it was once a very reliable and trust worthy family dog. Now, one needs to be very careful with training that people and dog aggression traits are picked up and dealt with early on.
    Personally, I own a Boxer.

    Revenge is the best justice folks.
    Sometimes I have to agree. If it was my dog used, I would literally be locked, loaded withthe 30.06 and hunting their mother forkin' arses down, because you are right; when a murder gets the sort of pathetic sentence handed down that the NZ justice system has come to see as acceptable, then what hope is there for any form or real punishment for these monkeys?

    Hmmm. But what is their purpose really other than to say, "I am a mean motherfucker because I've got big motherfucking dogs?" Cocker Spaniels are great dogs too, but I've never heard of "bad" ones tearing the faces off small children or ripping other dogs to shreds.

    Yes, pitbulls (and fila brasilias, dogo argentinas etc) can be sociable dogs, but as you say, it's all about an image and what they were originally bred for. This country is certainly not a better place for having these dogs. You can't say the same for breeds that serve us like shepherds, border collies, huntaways, labradors and companion dogs like poodles, cocker spaniels and the like.

    I wouldn't go as far as that, but it must be noted that even cocker spaniels can cause nasty injuries in a child. A friend's baby sustained a nasty bite on his face from their Pug dog. Labradors are quite inclined to bite children too.

    YUP and for this reason our latest addition will NOT be left with SullyOne on her own - kids can be soo unpredictable and it isn't always the dogs fault if it tries to tell a kid FUCK OFF AND LEAVE ME ALONE!

    Funny thing is our boy is scared of our pup when she gets excited as she is teething she is quite mouthy - he has already developing a healthy respect for her jaws!

    Yep, my boy is never unsupervised around our dogs either.

    To stop the puppy mouthing/biting thing: when she goes to do it, shove your fingers down her gob. It will be an unpleasant enough sensation that she will stop giving you the opportunity to do it You will probably need a few different people to do it, but it usually works a treat.
