Re: Pit bulls and Rottweilers

Some people are stupid. We have an issue with a young teenager who walks an aggressive big dog round here. I see her coming and it has her all over the place. I have to change direction when I see...

Re: Pit bulls and Rottweilers

LOL. Our last dog (male) was a bit aggressive with other dogs and he had a real go at a police dog one day who was twice his size. Luckily the other one was on a lease and with his handler. He'd have...

Re: Pit bulls and Rottweilers

Re: Immigration medical requirements

When we did ours I think one of the questions was about hospital admissions in the last 2 years.... so if it was further along than that you should be ok.
