He got 2 biscuits... ShhHe's giving you a massive dose of dog guilt.
I haven't given out treats in years. But I keep some on hand for emergencies. It came in handy today when a pit bull came up into my car. I thought it would be good to make friends. Now I'm his best bud.
I have a couple customers who have wolves. One is always in an enclosure. Another one that has since died wasn't. I would go into the man shop. He always dealt in cod's. If he wasn't there the wolf would be chained to a massive truck rim. I always have him a biscuit. If the guy wasn't there I'd throw him half a sandwich. I had to show my respect for mr wolf.Maintaining friendships with pit bulls that jump up into your truck is good for your health. Want a biscuit? You betcha, here's a biscuit. Hell, I will give you two biscuits!
There is a pit bull on my route that could care less about treats. Unless human flesh is a treat. It only jumps in the truck with the intention of biting. It also likes to hide and then attacks when delivery drivers are walking back to their truck. It did the latter to me recently and my pant leg saved me from having a bloody leg. The owner lets that dog roam free everyday and leaves the gate open. I no longer deliver there.Maintaining friendships with pit bulls that jump up into your truck is good for your health.

The nice part about having a rural route is that vicious dogs that are allowed to run loose tend to have a really short lifespan. The rural people in these parts have a simple and 100% effective method for permanently dealing with aggressive animals that are loose on their property.There is a pit bull on my route that could care less about treats.

Actually, he did get two. One on the way to the delivery, one on the way back.Maintaining friendships with pit bulls that jump up into your truck is good for your health. Want a biscuit? You betcha, here's a biscuit. Hell, I will give you two biscuits!
I hate them. They are ticking time bombs. They have attacked more than a few people in my town during the past year and the owners all were clueless as to why they attacked. None of the dogs had ever attacked anyone before and in many cases the dogs were already familiar with the people, including small children, they attacked. One of the kids had pet the dog many times in the past. The problem is if they get mad or feel threatened they are so very dangerous compared to when a regular run of the mill crap eating ankle biter flips out.I'm in love with pit bulls. The worlds most misunderstood breed of dog.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I've been around many. They are great family dogs. It how you treat them. There are a lot of ignorant people that own them. They are great dogs.I hate them.

As a UPS driver, I would much rather deal with a pit bull than a German Shepherd or a Chow. In 27 years I have yet to have a single problem with a pit bull, and every pit bull currently on my route is a lick-o-matic. There are only a couple of German Sheperds on my route that are even remotely friendly, and several that are quite mean. I don't trust them. Same with Chows.I hate them. They are ticking time bombs.

I was on a safety ride and a pit bull that I give treats to, jumped in the truck. My supervisor screamed like a baby.I have a pit bull on my route that runs with a couple of other dogs. The other dogs were lovable goof balls but the pit always seemed a bit standoffish. I would give all of them a treat while paying special attention to the pit. One day he jumped into the truck looking for his treat. Best buds ever since.
There is a stigma with them. So people have a fear of them. Dogs smell the fear. The mainstream is to look at that breed of dog differently. Who can blame someone for stigmatizing the breed. A lot of ignorant people get these dogs to fight them. Some of these fighting dogs have gotten out and killed people.I have a pit bull on my route that runs with a couple of other dogs.
