Another dog done wrong by the owner

I've just seen this on Facebook.

The owner is a woman and she's got her male friend to post. I've tacked on his further comment to the original post as I can only upload one photo or screenshot per day on here.

Openly admitting she can't control the dog but wanting to pass it along to some random on Facebook!

I get so angry at the ignorance of these people who cannot train their dogs and get unsuitable breeds.

It's cruel to the dogs involved and horrendous for everyone else as the dog poses a threat to humans and to other dogs and cats etc.

I have 3 bull breeds (not XL). Knew what I was getting into when I got them, and they suit my lifestyle. Gives me the rage when people do NOT consider the dog and family circumstances when they get any dog, let alone this type of breed. That lady is the sort of person who ends up giving the breed a bad name and it breaks my heart.

Bull breeds should be banned.

Well at least the owner has acknowledged she is unable to look after the dog properly but presumably it's being advertised on Facebook because she wants money for the dog.

She made a bad decision getting this breed of dog and now thinks she's qualified to vet the next owner for suitability.

Poor dog, l hope it gets lucky with he next owner but I'm not optimistic. Why the hell can't adults understand that you can want something but at the same time know it would be unwise to actually get it.

With the proper training, socialisation, care, respect, attention, diet and exercise, all dogs can be wonderful.

The dog in this post is 13 months and the woman allegedly cannot 'manage' to control the dog! I don't think for one minute proper training or exercise or socialisation has taken place.

I think their is going to be a very sad outcome for this dog.

Someone should "@" the RSPCA in the comments!!

The mauling head on that thing.
A danger to children and certainly other dogs as this has Pit in it.
Surely people research a dog before buying one? The fat faced puppy turns into a large, strong and dangerous dog in circumstances like this.

Seems plenty don’t bother researching eventual size and strength.
