The theme of today was Flight or Fight: Dogs who are terrified but have no way to escape because they are on a chain...and so instead decide to fight, and those who exploit them for fighting, especially pit bulls. In fact, one of the dogs has his own football, thinking of Mike Vick maybe?

Tammy, U definitely need to go out more. I suggest a library where U can learn about dogs. First of all, chain setups, second only to living in your home AS A SINGLE PET, is the best way to contain dogs. For folk who love them & own a family of these dogs, homing multiple dogs is not an option and it is dangerous...not for the humans but for their fellow canines. Do your research. Zoos no longer place animals in cages for a reason. We also have leash laws. True to form APBT R Animal aggressive.
Been a dog trainer who has trained hundreds of dogs in S&R, detection, protection for more than 2 1/2 decades. We have found that dog trolley systems and proper chain setups provide increased owner interaction with their dogs than most kennel runs. The dogs love them and if set up correctly are a safe and secure way to house a working dog. Most dogs are fine in a fenced area or kennel but high drive working dogs are more inclined to destroy a cheap discount store kennel.
Tammy, many working dogs are animal aggressive. If you own multiple dogs of working breeds, your suggestion is ridiculous and naive. You need to realize not all dogs are considered "pets". While I agree the chain setups depicted on your video are badly setup, a correctly design chain setup will allow for much more room for the dog to exercise themselves. Flight or fight does not apply here. An APBT was created more than 100 years with the urge to fight animals. It is genetics not a chain.
My dog has been on a proper chain setup for almost five years. I took it to the groomer the other day and they said it was probaly the best dog that has ever been in there. A proper chain setup is way safer for a pit bull than a pen, due your homework!
I've lived in a suburb of Chicago my whole life and before a co-worker showed me these videos I never knew people kept dogs chained. This has really opened my eyes. I hope we can change this for the better. Thank you for what you are doing. Can we get a show like this on TV? It would be so much more interesting than the reality shows we have and would actually do some good for the world.
