No definitely not act like its not happening but do it in a way they dont realize there is a fight. Like no fight no confrontation. Knock em down with one good punch. LOL learned that in Okinawan Karate. Dont want to fight but need to know how to end it when someone starts it. Sorry I am just such a non confrontational person. I am however married to the opposite type.

The latest: AFF has announced that there is no such thing as a "Pit Bull Type Dog". I'm not kidding.

CA someone did respond to your comment with some words of wisdom.....not!
Furthermore I love how AFF said that they are not trying to be PC as evidenced by the fact that one can see people disagree with them. Um actually one can not see who disagrees with them or how because they have blocked anyone who dares to disagree.

Ok so I got a, I am able to keep my dogs not crated or separated so there! comment. And they did not like that I used the word Turbocharging adoptions. Well is that not what they (aff) called it on several occasions. How to turbocharge adoptions by twisting words to make the pit bull more adoptable? I really dont care if I get deleted. They will do me a favor.

CA I am going to go out on a limb here and say I am sure melly Mel's dogs are not real pit bulls. If they are and she continues to control them by being the packleader as she states.....time will tell.

CA I thought the same thing. She was totally beings snarky. Whatever melly Mel. Anyone remember dirty dancing when the instructor said Baby is that your name....real bitchy. That was the first thing that popped into my head when she said that about your name.

There's some serious psychopathology going on. No hype. For real.

Like I commented on one of Emily's posts about Kim... does she even listen to what she's saying?
I don't think they are paying attention to their own 'doctrine'.... or even know what they stand for any longer.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and mention that history is written by the victors. That is the version we get taught in school.
Is AFF trying to become a 'victor' here and re-write APBT/AmStaff/etc history? Giving us a gentle, non aggressive nanny dog instead of the courageous, loyal, bull dog we love?
I mean, really what is their point?
I used to admire AFF but for a long while now, I'm almost embarrassed for the APBT that they associated themselves with the breed.

There's some serious psychopathology going on. No hype. For real. Absolutely. It's maddening. They are "not denying that APBT is a breed they are denying that "pit bull" is a breed."  |

Giving us a gentle, non aggressive nanny dog instead of the courageous, loyal, bull dog we love? .... yes, I believe that's it exactly. You won't find anything but lowdrive, dog-social "pit bulls" on BR/BF/AFF or the pinker's rescue lists. Too hard. Can't turbocharge the adoption. Can't pretend that anyone can own them. So who will preserve the real thing? The breeders of course.... except for that little "don't breed while shelter dogs die" thing. Which is why I've always suspected an anti-purebred dog motive |

Yes Melonie. It's unacceptable or simply not true that any of us own anything not super duper mushy. It must get along with all living creatures. Dog sensitivity is appalling to them and simply a fallacy.

Yeah what their point? so now their website is changed and it no longer says Pit Bull type dogs it has been changed to "pit bull" but pit bull is not a breed as far as they are concerned so what is it in their eyes then a type?

I could have sworn just the other day their website said pit bull type dogs. What transpired in the last couple of days...... What transpired is the blow up and the mass unfriending. They cast the die. They will no longer even try to pretend to want to get along with or understand breed people. They are going where they've long wanted to, but were afraid to. But once they became more afraid of the rebuttals and decided to circle the wagons, they figured they'd go full gambit. They may well, as Emily has suggested, come to regret this severely enough and soon enough to decide to eat crow and retract it - although their retractions have not generally been honest and open, more like "I do not recall ever saying that" a la some mafioso at a hearing. The Soviet style implosion I predicted may already have started in earnest. The next few days should prove fascinating. If there's a lot more tirading in favor of this latest bit of Newspeak, then they're digging in hard and we can only guess how surreal things will get in the coming weeks and months. If they stop talking issues and post nothing but "oooh, look how cute Pug and Bug are with their sunglasses on", they're likely in closed, emergency session and we'll see if they emerge on the  side of sanity thereafter. |

I look forward to learning much here
