I was at the mall this weekend and stopped to let my kids play at their indoor play area.

While I was there I noticed a commotion and I saw this man with a dog in the entrance of the play area. When I say dog…I mean enormous pit bull. This dog easily weighed 110 lbs. Intact. No vest, just sitting there on a leash. I saw him try to jump up on a few little kids.

Naturally this upset a few people and I noticed several families grabbing their kids and leaving. Some even exchanging words with the man on the way out.

There was this one mom in particular (with 4 little kids) arguing with him and eventually calling security. They were shouting, using profanity, personal insults flying. I kept thinking omg this dog is going to attack her in his owner’s defense.

Security comes, asks him to remove his dog from the play area. He argues a bit, says it’s a service animal, but does eventually take the dog just outside the entrance to taunt the upset mom a little more…letting the dog jump up on the wall and shit to look at her. It was nuts

Anyway, I heard him tell security the dog was his service companion for his anxiety disorder…and I just can’t help but think, what bullshit.

First of all, it’s not even fair to put the dog in that situation. And I really feel there are so many other ways he could be coping, yet he is choosing to cart this enormous pit bull to an indoor play area for small children…he has to know this is going to be controversial, which is exactly why he does it. Because he likes to argue with people.

Thoughts?

Itty bitty dick syndrome?

Pit bulls need to be banned. Period.

That's coming from a dog lover, a dog foster, and a dog rescuer.

And unless it's an actual trained service animal, leave your dogs at home.

I guess as part of the ADA you can’t legally ask them to present documentation or ask them what their disability is so it leaves it open for people to have their emotional support peacocks and shit 😅 ridiculous

I’m sure it’s a very nice dog and has never hurt anyone, but it’s just the fact he brought it to a mall…and specifically to an indoor play area crawling with small children who are jumping around, high pitched screams, play fighting. I wouldn’t trust any dog in that situation not to be nervous and act out of character

Yeah...did you hear about the "nice" family dogs (pits) that attacked a small child and a baby in Tennesee? Dogs literally pulled the baby in half and ate it while the mother was trying to stop it all from happening.

And the whole ADA thing is bullshit. They could easily amend the law to specify what constitutes a service animal. Our lawmakers are fucking children, though.

Yes! Literally the day this happened I read that article.

I didn’t even want to bring up the pit bull thing because people get so defensive…

I understand chihuahuas bite more often than pit bulls, but chihuahuas don’t maul and kill their owners. This happens several times a year.

The fact he chose that dog as his “service companion” tells me he just loves conflict

I think you need to do a bit more research. Pits are the most loving and best dog on earth. I will never understand people like you who give them a bad name. Any dog can be trained to be destructive. So if you think pits need to be banned just man up and admit all dogs should be banned. Sorry but not sorry. Your type of thinking is upsetting. Though maybe if you do a bit more research, and maybe own one for youself, you will see the actual facts.

I didn't need this in my head. All I can imagine now is a human finding a random dog, and throwing a homemade service vest on it to pretend like it's their service animal as a decoy to potentially act out some type of malicious plot.

Don’t be getting any ideas!

Now I imagine you making a tiny vest for your tarantula 😅

Lmao!

I'd never, because I know 90% of people would want to stomp on them, or light them on fire...

Though I did have a dream I was breeding death stalker scorpions to release within the home of my enemies.

I wouldn't actually do that though! I respect aminals too much, large or small.

Exactly you can't. You know you're talking out your ass, and can only reply with K. I consider that a win.

I don't even own a pitbull. I just know your not an authentic dog lover. You are the type that has a handful of breeds you might like, but wouldn't care, or maybe even enjoy watching other breeds suffer and die. You prove that to everyone. Ffs, make a better argument lmao! You look like actual shit.

I bet you reply K. How orginial. It's the exact same reaction I'd expect from a fraud. I actually expected more from you at first glance. How sad. Turns out you're just shit, and you hate dogs. Wtf bro? You deserve the worst treatment possible 🤭

While I was there I noticed a commotion and I saw this man with a dog in the entrance of the play area. When I say dog…I mean enormous pit bull. This dog easily weighed 110 lbs. Intact. No vest, just sitting there on a leash. I saw him try to jump up on a few little kids.

Naturally this upset a few people and I noticed several families grabbing their kids and leaving. Some even exchanging words with the man on the way out.

There was this one mom in particular (with 4 little kids) arguing with him and eventually calling security. They were shouting, using profanity, personal insults flying. I kept thinking omg this dog is going to attack her in his owner’s defense.

Security comes, asks him to remove his dog from the play area. He argues a bit, says it’s a service animal, but does eventually take the dog just outside the entrance to taunt the upset mom a little more…letting the dog jump up on the wall and shit to look at her. It was nuts

Anyway, I heard him tell security the dog was his service companion for his anxiety disorder…and I just can’t help but think, what bullshit.

First of all, it’s not even fair to put the dog in that situation. And I really feel there are so many other ways he could be coping, yet he is choosing to cart this enormous pit bull to an indoor play area for small children…he has to know this is going to be controversial, which is exactly why he does it.

Itty bitty dick syndrome?

Doesn't matter if it's a service dog or not. If it shows signs of agression or misbehavior, businesses have the right to ask the animal to exit the premises. This includes certified service animals. Which I doubt was the case in this case. Because trained service animals don't do that🙃



A random dog jumping on random kids in a unwanted manner....calling security should have been the first move.

P.S. with pitbulls it's just the damage they can deal when things go to far that makes them feared. Other then that good dogs. Care bears with sharp teeth and biting strength.

You do realize I will play this game till one of us dies. Out of respect for the op, I feel you should make a K thread, and I will quote and continue to write with you for months or years till one of us dies. I've always loved the idea of someone quoting me this much. You are actually the first, so I'm kind of in love with this idea of quoting your Ks for eternity. Though I kind of feel it deserves a thread of its own. I've never had anyone so into me to continue any type of argument this much. I can imagine a 500 page thread where you and I just post K to one another for years to come! It's never happened on dxpnet, and completely orginal. I'm going to admit, this is like a game to me. I finally feel alive! I want you to quote me till we die! You know what daddy wants love 😜

Please reply this with a K, my dopamine is depending on it.

I agree 100% . Any dog can be raised and trained to be destructive. Anyone who actually cares about animals, and dogs especially, can see pitbulls are truly beautiful, loving, and deserve our care. They need the same help and love as any breed. Like some have openly mentioned, the breed is hated by some, yet they shouldn't be cast aside and hated. They should be loved, and saved from the bad reputation humans gave them. People who disagree are truly the worst imo.

So if you think pits need to be banned just man up and admit all dogs should be banned. Sorry but not sorry. Your type of thinking is upsetting. Though maybe if you do a bit more research, and maybe own one for youself, you will see the actual facts.

💯 people are way worse than pits.

I agree 100% . Any dog can be raised and trained to be destructive. Anyone who actually cares about animals, and dogs especially, can see pitbulls are truly beautiful, loving, and deserve our care. They need the same help and love as any breed. Like some have openly mentioned, the breed is hated by some, yet they shouldn't be cast aside and hated. They should be loved, and saved from the bad reputation humans gave them. People who disagree are truly the worst imo.

I was at the mall this weekend and stopped to let my kids play at their indoor play area.

While I was there I noticed a commotion and I saw this man with a dog in the entrance of the play area. When I say dog…I mean enormous pit bull. This dog easily weighed 110 lbs. Intact. No vest, just sitting there on a leash. I saw him try to jump up on a few little kids.

Naturally this upset a few people and I noticed several families grabbing their kids and leaving. Some even exchanging words with the man on the way out.

There was this one mom in particular (with 4 little kids) arguing with him and eventually calling security. They were shouting, using profanity, personal insults flying. I kept thinking omg this dog is going to attack her in his owner’s defense.

Security comes, asks him to remove his dog from the play area. He argues a bit, says it’s a service animal, but does eventually take the dog just outside the entrance to taunt the upset mom a little more…letting the dog jump up on the wall and shit to look at her. It was nuts

Anyway, I heard him tell security the dog was his service companion for his anxiety disorder…and I just can’t help but think, what bullshit.

First of all, it’s not even fair to put the dog in that situation. And I really feel there are so many other ways he could be coping, yet he is choosing to cart this enormous pit bull to an indoor play area for small children…he has to know this is going to be controversial, which is exactly why he does it. Because he likes to argue with people.

Thoughts?

Itty bitty dick syndrome?

Doesn't matter if it's a service dog or not. If it shows signs of agression or misbehavior, businesses have the right to ask the animal to exit the premises. This includes certified service animals. Which I doubt was the case in this case. Because trained service animals don't do that🙃



A random dog jumping on random kids in a unwanted manner....calling security should have been the first move.

Mall security is such a joke

Loved them in that Paul Blart, Mall Cop movie 🍿 😅

I would not be comfortable that breed (and certain others) around small children, regardless of who raised them. If people want to roll the dice, that's on them though.

Stories of certain breeds being an issue will continue. Humans can influence but not eliminate natural instincts. Dogs were all bred for specific traits. Pit bull and their variants are bred to defend their owners/territory at all costs. Most times they aren't an issue, until they are. 😔


Poor babies😢

I saw a pic of a small baby on a rug with a big Husky dog and a Jack Russell terrier standing over him

All it’d take is a split second for one of those dogs to snap at that little boy and it could be disaterous.

I’m not sure where people’s heads are at sometimes? 😬

The two dogs were the couples babies for a long time and then along comes another one ..... anything could happen.

What was left out of the article is paramedics reported the baby was literally pulled in half and mostly eaten by the dogs. The mother tried to fight the dogs off only to almost die from her own injuries...while watching her child get eaten.

Yeah I didn’t mean this to turn into a pit bull debate, but I do have pretty strong opinions on people especially with kids owning certain breeds. I think it’s highly irresponsible and a tragedy waiting to happen.

My opinion is not only based on the numerous news articles every year, but also personal experiences such as a girl I grew up with having her voice box ripped out and nearly killed by her Rottweiler when she was just 6 years old…to name one of several such incidences I have been aware of.

I’m really not trying to hear the defenders

But also, this service animal thing is bullshit

I'm 100% more scared of a chihuahua then I am a pit bull. I use to work in vet hospitals. I was more likely to get bit/attacked by a chihuahua then I was a pit bull. Those things are nasty. I would never own a chihuahua and I definitely would not trust one near children.

I know plenty of people who own pitbulls with children and they have never had any issues. That breed gets a horrible reputation because people do raise them to kill and its sad.

Seriously ?

Do you think the family that just lost their infant and toddler to their family dogs raised their pit bulls to kill ? Sounds unlikely

It’s also highly unlikely most pit bulls owners “train to kill” as pit bull lovers I wouldn’t think they would want to jeopardize their dogs like that.

They are just dogs like any other acting on instincts and energy…only difference is they can do a hell of a lot more damage when it does go wrong.

Never heard of a chihuahua mauling or killing anyone. Just stop

My parents had a pit bull mix they rescued and he was the gentlest, most lethargic, dog. He wouldn’t hurt a fly, even if provoked. I witnessed another dog jump on him once and he didn’t even fight back.

But you know what, my parents wouldn’t put him in that situation because they loved him and they knew if he did respond it would be bad and he would ultimately be blamed as he was the “aggressive breed”

I am not a pit bull hater but I also simply cannot listen to people talk out of their ass anymore

The family that just lost their infant is tragic but it could have happened with any bread of dog. It just happened to be a pit bull. Any big dog could have done it. Maybe people with children should just not have large bread dogs period. Stop blaming the bread. I've been attacked by dogs before none were pit bulls. I've had people's dog run from their yards across the street trying to attack me out of no where. I used to deliver for Amazon and had places where their dogs tried to attack me... none of them were pit bulls. ANY dog can kill you. Just stop blaming the bread. It's just stupid. Blame the owners. It's always the owners. And they will act innocent I'm sure. "The dog wouldn't hurt a fly" fucking bullshit. I've heard it all to many times. Meanwhile they are training their dogs to attack intruders.

As a parent, there are certain breeds I wouldn’t have around my kiddos if I was unsure of their standing, and pit bulls are one of them. But it’s not just pit bulls that concern me. My sister was attacked by our chow chow growing up, ripped up half of her face and I was first one to see the aftermath, having to tell my mom that my sisters face was torn apart… so it’s not just pit bulls I’m weary of, but also certain breeds that make me feel less safe to have my children around. I mean you hear all the time about chow chows attacking people, but we thought ours was different. Certain breeds don’t get their reputation for no reason is all, and I am more cautious with certain types of breeds/animals around my kids.

Jeeze 😩 that is awful. So sorry to hear that. Did you have to put her down?

I also knew a family with a chow who you just couldn’t trust around kids. She never so much as growled at an adult but she did not like kids! RIP Stormin’ Norman

Your right its bs.

Anyone with a service animal has them in the vest which says DO NOT PET WORKING SERVICE ANIMAL and will have the certification on them. Or if in training it will say, in training. Not an issue to have a service animal around children or in a crowded hectic environment at all. They need to be put in those situations in order to learn focus.

I suspect at best he has the Emotional Support Animal certification which is literally something you pay for online. No training required. I got it for a former dog essentially so that I could fly with her on my lap instead of stuck in the carrier. Difference was she was a delight, great with people and animals alike.

He is an asshole. But so is the Karen who decided to stop and scream profanities at him. Cussing him out is just as inappropriate behavior around kids. At that point her concern was not for the safety of her child but rather her need to engage. If she was actually worried she would've got her kid out asap.

I get that people are scared of big dogs and pitts get a bad rep but the reality is the dogs temperament is a direct reflection of the owner. There are no bad dogs, just bad owners. My sister has always owned blue nose pitts and they are the sweetest of the sweet. Teddy bears and fiercely protective. The dogs you need to look out for are the small yappy ones. Napoleon complexes everyone of them. And because they look harmless your kid leans in for a pet and gets bit in the face. Word to the wise.

And I say this as an avid lover and forever lifetime owner of terriers.

Good point though. Everybody thinks “not my dog” “he or she wouldn’t hurt a fly” “it’s all in how you train them”

Yet multiple times a year, somebody’s dog literally eats them. Not a stranger or someone they thought was an intruder…their OWNER who has loved and cared for them.

It’s nuts.

I’ll stick to the smaller breeds that can’t eat me, thanks

I do agree with you on Karen

I was nervous the dog would feel the need to defend his owner the way she was posturing and raising her voice.

Also same note about his temperament. He’s out here actively looking for confrontation, admittedly has anxiety, I can’t imagine his energy is appropriate to handle that dog in a public setting, especially with so many little children running everywhere screaming and shit

Service animals. Actual service animals are not bs.

These are highly trained animals which help adults and children with disabilities and illness navigate life.

There is a huge difference between service dog and therapy dog.

A service dog is trained to aid in navigation for hearing, visual, and mobility impaired people. Also can assist or even alert on seizure disorders, those with severe mental illness and diabetes. The list goes on. Training is typically early on in the dogs life and very specific based on helping for one thing.

Therapy dogs are used as cute fluffy props to provide distraction/comfort to people. Think schools, hospitals, and nursing homes. They are trained to be very gentle and affectionate.

There will always be people who abuse the system. The man you observed being an example of such.

Yeah dogs react to the handlers emotional state so you were right to be cautious. Unless they are highly trained of course which it was apparent this one was not.

Its a good teaching opportunity however. You can educate your kids on the right way to approach and interact with others dogs. I always try to do this when I encounter people out and about who want their kids to pet mine. Just cause mine can tolerate the ear pulling and roughness doesn't mean all dogs will.

Yep! I teach them to never walk up to and try to pet a dog they don’t know…they have to ask the owner first if it’s ok. They are really small still, but I want them to know just like they don’t necessarily enjoy people they don’t know walking up to and touching them, dogs might not like that either! My youngest is pretty bad about trying to give them kisses and getting in their face. She cannot be trusted!! I grabbed her when I saw that dog because I know right what she would be doing 😅

Most people can't even pick an actual pitbull out of a line up and any dog with a block head they label as such...most that you hear about are a mixed breed.

Anyway...I think people should have to show and prove their animal is a service dog...or people will abuse the system like this guy clearly was...he just wants to be able to take his dog everywhere...I mean on one hand I get it but also you need to have common sense and that not everyone is comfortable around dogs.

Pit bulls need to be banned. Period.

That's coming from a dog lover, a dog foster, and a dog rescuer.

And unless it's an actual trained service animal, leave your dogs at home.

I think you need to do a bit more research. Pits are the most loving and best dog on earth. I will never understand people like you who give them a bad name. Any dog can be trained to be destructive. So if you think pits need to be banned just man up and admit all dogs should be banned. Sorry but not sorry. Your type of thinking is upsetting. Though maybe if you do a bit more research, and maybe own one for youself, you will see the actual facts.

I don't care.

Trust me, I know you don't. Your bit is to simply be loud and obnoxious, nothing more. Classic. Don't let me ruin your fun.

You don't care either. Your bit is to simply be edgy, contrarian, and obtuse to keep the responses and quotes flowing so you can get that next little bump of dopamine the little red notifcations give you. Classic. Don't let me ruin your fun.

Yawn... tell me something I dont know. Don't worry though, you won't ruin my fun. My dopamine is at an all time high. Don't you worry bout little ol me.

https://www.warriorsforjustice.com/dog-biting-statistics-by-breed/

Nr. 1 - Pitbull of course with 3,397 attacks and 295 deaths.

Nr 2 is Rottweiler which we also aren't surprised to see with 535 attacks and 8 deaths.

The rest of the list just further cements the observation that Pits(fucking L for the name too) attack and kill up to 3-6 times more than other dog breeds. It's just a characteristic of this sorry amalgamation different breeds.A staggering 65% of deaths from dog bite attacks come from pit bulls.

These dogs are one of the breeds that are a trespass on God and an abomination of breeding. The breeders who breed these types of Dogs and play God half assed like this deserve to be shot with an Elephant hunting rifle.

Though maybe if you do a bit more research, and maybe own one for youself, you will see the actual facts.

I don't care.

Trust me, I know you don't. Your bit is to simply be loud and obnoxious, nothing more. Classic. Don't let me ruin your fun.

You don't care either. Your bit is to simply be edgy, contrarian, and obtuse to keep the responses and quotes flowing so you can get that next little bump of dopamine the little red notifcations give you. Classic. Don't let me ruin your fun.

Yawn... tell me something I dont know. Don't worry though, you won't ruin my fun. My dopamine is at an all time high. Don't you worry bout little ol me.

Nr. 1 - Pitbull of course with 3,397 attacks and 295 deaths.

Nr 2 is Rottweiler which we also aren't surprised to see with 535 attacks and 8 deaths.

The rest of the list just further cements the observation that Pits(fucking L for the name too) attack and kill up to 3-6 times more than other dog breeds. It's just a characteristic of this sorry amalgamation different breeds.A staggering 65% of deaths from dog bite attacks come from pit bulls.

These dogs are one of the breeds that are a trespass on God and an abomination of breeding. The breeders who breed these types of Dogs and play God half assed like this deserve to be shot with an Elephant hunting rifle.

Most of the modern day full blooded pit bulls aggression comes from inbreeding. They weren't like that 100 years ago. We genetically engineered them to become killing machines by selective breeding. Just like we've highlighted other breeds characteristics over the years by doing the same shit. I.E. playing God.

I'm strongly opposed to most any pure blooded dogs - whether it be a pit bull or a poodle. Because most "breeders" aren't exactly known for being geneticists. The Queens corgis are probably one of the only exceptions.. they seem like they know what they're doing with those.

Don't ban pit bulls - ban pit bull breeding. Dilute some of the machismo shit we've tried to concentrate in them over the years.

Wow 😮

As pit-bull attacks become more and more common, they’re getting increasing attention on social media, but not always in support of the wounded children. In March, a Facebook petition to save Mickey, a dangerous pit bull in Phoenix, got over 70,000 likes. Mickey was facing euthanasia for mauling 4-year-old Kevin Vincente so badly that he cracked his jaw, eye socket and cheekbone. Kevin is facing months of reconstructive surgery, but more people were concerned with saving the dog than helping the boy. Mickey’s Facebook page has now become a social-media landing page to save other dogs that are considered dangerous

Pit bulls need to be banned. Period.

That's coming from a dog lover, a dog foster, and a dog rescuer.

And unless it's an actual trained service animal, leave your dogs at home.

You're not exactly in disagreement with me here. Logically if you dilute the mixing of the blood(genes) in the Pit you'll just bull terrier's, bulldog's or any other breed that is less of a genetic abomination that pits are.

They do the same thing with dangerous people criminals though. It's not exclusive to dogs.

Idk I understand both honestly. For one I think the people angry at the guy with a pitbull were more upset at the kind of dog it was, which is really sad. If the dog wasn’t being aggressive I don’t understand why people would be so upset at him being there.

But on the other hand the guy should be more mindful of where he’s at, and it seems like towards the end when he was asked to go outside he was just having a power trip. Which is messed up too. He doesn’t have to be vindictive.

I agree, probably nobody would have had an issue if it were a golden retriever or if he were wearing a vest and was well trained and under control.

This dog was jumping up on people and things.

That was the issue for me, personally. That, and the fact that when confronted with the fact that this was a highly inappropriate setting for his 110lb dog, he chose to respond aggressively rather than respectfully.

I watched him pretend like he was going to unclip the dog’s leash several times during his argument with the upset mom
