Dognamic Duo 12/12/120 Tour Day 6: Georgia Chained Dogs

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?

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.

How about housing the 'working dog' in the HOUSE with you? I would say THAT is someone who knows what they're talking about.

You guys are coming to my state today and I want to thank you so much. I look at a chained dog daily through my window I talk to him give him treats and watch out for him he has no chance if any other animal wants to attack him. Just know that I appreciate all that you all are doing. It shows that just a few people can grab so manys attention. I forward your new video daily in hopes to open just one persons eyes to the dangers of this. THANKS LADIES from Kentucky!! We appreciate you!!!

[tammyddb]

Aw, thank you so much, and I'm so sorry you have to see it daily, I know that pain, and wouldn't wish it on anyone.

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!

[tammyddb]

Yeah, right! A proper HOME is with you, and is better than ANY chain or pen...do YOUR homework. Tammy

Also if people are passing you on the right YOU ARE IN THE WRONG LANE!!!!!!!!!

The pure arrogance of mankind is unbelievable. We like to humanize every animal and every thing. People seem to think it's cruel to put a gamedog on a proper chain set-up however dogs are outdoor creatures by primal RIGHT. The fact that someone gets a dog housed inside their own home because of emotional reasons, makes for your dog to be less of a dog. Dogs are dogs, and not humans so treat them with respect, and by that treat them as animals not humans.

Rockythegamebulldog I COMPLETELY agree with you.

[Rockythegamebulldog]

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.

[Rockythegamebulldog]

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.

Thank you someone that knows what the hell they are talking about!
