I guess the dog didn't like the sweater. Huh?

What kind of people walk around thinking "Maybe I should put a sweater on a pit bull"?

StillH2OEgger

I think the dog's reaction was justified.

while i feel for those who were injured, i always question the thought process of those who need to play dress up with their pets.

Natural Selection at it's best...

Just think what the Pitbull would have done if they would have tried to put lipstick on him.

A sweater in Florida?  Hopefully the injured were the Pitt owner and his immediate family/gang.

poor dog.

Maybe the dog was trying to return the neuter.

Can't imagine why any any living creature would find this upsetting:

seems that those "super sweet" pitbulls, who "wouldn't hurt a fly" are often the ones that put their owners in the hospitals.

I agree but this time I think it nay have been justified.

Didn't you get the memo? "Only the pit bulls that were trained to fight attack people."
All dogs bite, but when a pit bull bites, you end up in the hospital or the morgue. At least in this case it was the owners.

I thought you could legally shoot people who put sweaters on dogs in Florida. If not, you should be.

Which is the ONLY way it should end up.

I've always thought that dressing up a pet constituted - by definition - animal cruelty.  And don't get me started on Anne Geddes.

What do get when you cross a Collie with a Pit bull?  .......... A dog that rips you arm off and then runs to get help!

Me too. I've lived here for 60 years now except those few years when Uncle Sam made me wear green and told me where to go.

Out problem is with all those snow birds that seem to think south Florida is the promised land. Some good people but I wish most of them would take their liberal politics and go back up north.

Google "florida man". Endless yuks. And not gender specific.

My wife put a raincoat on one of the Maltese during a snowfall last winter. I think you can tell from the look on his face, he was not amused.
