Pit Boss On animal planet!!!

[I<3Dreamsicles]

Im watching it right now this is my first time seeing it but it seems pretty cool to me. I guess its about trying to keep up a rescue, and saving pitbulls, while trying to get money to run it, and they are all uh... vertically challenged?

Either way, its got lotsa pit bulls so i like it.

They are all dwarfs. Nothing politically incorrect about calling them that - they call themselves that on the show. This is the second season - one of my favorite shows, btw.

I can't stand that show...they hardly do that much, they are more worried about their acting careers than anything else. As a person who used to own pitty type dogs, they don't give out any meaningful information about the breed, such as...there actually is no such thing as a "pitbull". I've seen too many episodes where they try to take matters into their owns hands, and mess up big time. Instead of spending a couple grand on themselves and on one dog, they should be trying to save money so they can build a couple kennels of their own, that way when they rescue dogs, they won't just be pawning them off on other rescues who are already at maximum capacity.

They should also be spreading the myths about pitty type dogs and trying to break the stereotypes, instead, they just keep adding to them.

It is actually one of my favorite shows too. I always hear them call themselves little people, and think that is the nicest way to go about it. Either way, I do think it is a good show, and I like what they do.

I agree that they dont do much but they show pitbulls in a good light most of the time. Ive only seen two episodes though. I agree about there being to much other crap about their acting and other stuff. its called PIT BOSS and its like half the show or less actually is about pits...

and...? there is such thing as a pit bull?

american pitbull terrier?...

[AkHerps]

But an american pitbull terrier is not a "pitbull"

There are actually three breeds of "pitbull".

There is no such thing as just a pitbull. A "pitbull" is simply a slang term started by the media and stereotypes.

If they were to focus way more on the dogs and actually helping them, educating the public, and teaching people that socialization and training are key, I might like the show a little more.

I'm on the fence with this show because of Shorty's attitude. I really don't like how he treats his staff. I'm really suprized they have all stuck around for two seasons. I sure wouldn't have.

It's hollywood....it's all bull. Reality tv is not reality...it's about money and ratings, and Animal Planet is not above using little people and pits to try and generate lots of both.

I think they should stop beating around the bush and get right to it. Give us what we want. A show about a little person and their pit getting dropped off in the middle of the forest to survive for a week, while at the same time building a custom chopper... Now that's entertainment!!!

I agree. In my opinion, Shorty is a pile of trash not worthy of air time. (Then again, look at all reality tv stars)

His employees are of subpar intelligence, and as stated, it seems like all they do is pickup a few dogs here and there and pawn them off on others.

That said....I shamefully watch that show a few times a week.
