hello i have a seven month old pit does any one have any helpful tips he is normally well behaved but often wees in the house plus everytime we take him out and see someone he wants to jump up on them and wont stop nipping also doers anyone know if it is a good idea to let him mix with other dogs because when we have him off the lead we have to put it back on when we see another dog but when he see them his tail starts going and he strats jumping about like crazy just worried he hurt them or hurt himself thanks

Is this a new dog?  In all your other posts you had a Staffie?
Dawn.

If you do have a staffie, then you should really know better than to call it a 'Pit' :(

must be another dog cos the staffie is only 20weeks in the other post

The other dog was 20 weeks old on 10th March which would make it around 7 months old now

..sigh... oh dear......:(

oh sorry lack of sleep having a blonde day

Aren't pit bulls illegal in this country now? or am I mistaking this for another dog?

They are indeed illegal, Sarah. But so is heroin, and everyone knows that's available too.

That's a fair comment... :(

pit bull 'type' dogs are indeed, and yes fair comment, doesn't stop them being around.  But I still say that the OP could have used phraseology more carefully!

I would have thought that true owners of true "pitbull types" would be considerably more discreet in respect, and fear, for their breed.

Makes me believe that those who shout about owning "pitbulls" probably just own big staffs :D

Agreed!

Or big ego's!

:)  Plain old ignorance kind of springs to mind too!

Agreed, but aren't we just fueling this post then? ? ?

Yes, you're absolutely right!  OP hasn't even come back on the subject anyway! :)

Well I wish they wouldnt for my breeds sake :angry:

The one thing I don't understand is how people don't know the breed of the dog they own!

i suppose it depends if they want to imagine their ford focus as a ferrari ;)

or their 2 inches is 8!

:D

You know that's why women can't park don't you?  'Cos men are always telling us that 6" is really 8" :)

:D

lol, that really made me giggle :-D :-D :-D
