My pit mix was also returned to the shelter twice before we adopted her. All I can say is that it was their loss. She was the best dog I have ever known in my life. She went through everything with us... cross-country moves, welcoming our new babies and new dogs into the house. She loved all of us and we loved her back. We had 14 amazing years with her, and I'll miss her every day of my life. Love you, Halley girl, to the moon and back.

[@oneirishpoet]

Bless you all for bringing her into your home. We adopted a young Australian cattle Dog that was said couldn't get along with other dogs and would be very difficult to train because of aggression. We had our beautiful boy Bishop for almost 15 years and he went everywhere with us, traveled all over the country and was my best hiking buddy in the world. It's been over 5 years and I still miss him every day ❤️🐾🙏

[@AndyBluebear]

"All I can say is that it was their loss" Not always. Their dog may not have gotten along with a human or animal in those houses. They might have done the right thing.

[@Karadoxical]

@@AndyBluebear I saw the return reasons on the paperwork. The shelter shares that with potential adopters so they're aware of any possible issues. They were all BS reasons, like her being destructive of property or going to the bathroom inside, literally things that never happened the entire time we had her. But I'm obviously thrilled they returned her either way. She was mine and she was amazing.

My Pittie boy, Chevy, was returned to the Jefferson Parish Animal Shelter twice. He had been listed in the newspaper, featured on the morning news program, and even been a Grand Mashall in a pet Mardi Gras parade in the French Quarter called Krewe of Barkus. No one adopted him. Finally I saw him at the Parade of Homes Show in the Superdome. He's a wonderful, sweet, loyal, and friendly boy. I love him.

My pibble Ozzy had 4 other homes before he came to live with me. He instantly bonded with me and would get extreme anxiety over other people coming near me. It was very clear that he was never shown how to relax and calm his anxiety. He would be on guard 24/7. But with lots of love, patience, treats, and training he now adores other people. We had to build up his trust that the 4 other homes had broken down. He is the love of my life. I swear rescue dogs just have a way to your heart like nothing else.

Every staffie I have met has had no problems being around children. In fact, staffies were know as nursery dogs in Victorian time as they were good at looking after small children. It is never the dog, it is the owner. Dog is a pack animal, acts like the pack leader acts.

[@seanmatthewking]

[@mistert9144]

Pit bulls were bred specifically to fight so they are aggressive by their nature. Even if you introduce a pit bull into a home with another dog and they don't play together, eventually the pit bull will attack after it has established its territory. Basically, only those that play with them will earn their trust.

[@rawjan39]

@@mistert9144 this dog is not a pit bull. The real pit bull is the Apbt. The Apbt were bred to be the Ultimate Fighting Dogs. The dog in the video is not a Apbt. It’s just a mixed breed

[@mistert9144]

@@rawjan39 The dog in the video looks to me like a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, which is also a breed of pit bulls. People don't like their dog being called a pit bull because they get a bad rap, but there's a reason why so many of them are sent to shelters. They demand more responsible ownership compared to any other dog type.

[@Freya12]

All animal foster families are Angels. Without them these dogs and other animals wouldn’t have a chance to be rehabilitated from the abuse, trauma and neglect they’ve suffered, making it impossible to re-home them. If they’re unable to be re-homed, they’d be put to sleep. Cutting their lives so short through no fault of their own, when all they needed was love, and a chance to learn how to trust again. Every foster family that rehabilitates the animals are saving the life of every animal that comes into their care.

When humans create the damage, other human or humans have to take responsibility to help and rehabilitate. The damage done in the first 8 months of his life has taken now 4+ years and counting time to heal. And he is healing and progressing. 4+ years later my boy now trusts I'm the leader and he doesn't need to worry about other dogs or humans. He knows I'll always say hi first and always show him how we can walk away. And happy and secure, most importantly. And he now has a little sister (adopted)!
