Adding a Dog to home with 2 cats???????????

[PitOnTheProwl]

Any guarding breed, pitt, rott, dobie, shepard need a lot of socializing, if you don't do that, you are just setting your dog up for failure. Any breed needs socializing, but it's especially important with breeds that have a bad reputation to start with.

Such a great post!!

Only thing is, too many people think of a "pit-bull" as a guard dog. Your bully should never show human aggression. This is one of the best thing that the ol time TRUE dog fighters did for the breed. These breeds were designed to kill anything with four legs BUT human aggression was killed out of them. They did not tolerate any dog that snapped or growled at an human. Even in the ring in the midst of combat, they were able to be handled by their handlers, the ref, and even strangers. This now creates our current problem of people not knowing what they are getting into with the bullies and making them what they are not and that is a guard dog.
