Do u read what a silly question tell the family who lost there child recently through one of these horrific dogs tearing her apart that these dogs r good with kids. The reason these dogs are banned in the U.K. is there jaws lock and they have turned and killed children now O don`t know about you but I can`t imagine losing a child by it being torn apart. I suggest u read more these are fighting dogs not pets

Since it is obvious that you do not have a clue about obedience training, your services should be for free. You cannot train even an adult dog for 8 hours a day. About the most that can be done at any one time is 10 - 20 minutes and that is with an adult dog and not a puppy. The attention span on this baby is extremely short and training session should be no more than 10 minutes and twice a day. Additionally, there isn't going to be much learned if you will only be training for 5 days. Obedience training is cumulative and is done over a much longer period of at least several weeks to several months.
What you can charge is determined by your experience, reputation, and accomplishments and in a case like this, should also include guaranteed expectations. Just working with dogs over several years, is not the experience that is necessary to be a dog trainer. There are too many people who are putting that title to their name and fleecing the public. Don't be one of them.

Answer 5

What the hell are you thinking. There are thousands of dog attacks daily throughout the world and pit bull attacks are the only ones you hear of becasue people want to find a reason to be little them. Just like any other dog, they are loving and sweet. From my own experience, the (precious) chocolate lab is more of a brat and threatning dog than any pit bull. It gets too protective of it's own possesions and becomes a dangerous threat top people. The dangerous pit bulls that people hear of are trained to be gaurd dogs, just like they can be trained to be obidient, family dogs. Think next time before you make a foolish statement like that.

Answer 6

I own a staffordshire bull terrier and ppl r always confusing them especially recently, im sick of being told he is a dangerous dog!! At the end of the day every dog is not to be trusted 100%. My outlook on so-called dangerous dogs is breeds such as rotwiellers and bull terriers are so popular because they are a guard dog (mainly! - mine would show them where all my valuables are for a biscuit) if the majority of ppl started to buy poodles then im sure there would be media coverage on children being bitten by these dangerous poodles

Answer 7

ppl dont hate pitbulls but when they get such bad press by inconsiderate ppl like owners who think they should be tied to a stake in the ground on a hot day without much water or food. this is the reason y they get bad rep. u have to understand when a dog attacks its not out of fear for a person it is animal or wolf instinct that takes over.
