If I were to go after your pit bull, the only thing I’d be telling it is, “damn you for killing my cat!” as I stab it . . . before it gets anywhere near my throat.

No the owner would be walking outside thinking, “why the fuck is my dog yelping?” and then I’d punch him in the face and yell, “that’s for owning a dog that killed my cat asshole!”

Bust into somebody’s yard to kill their dog, and it’ll be the owner gutting you, he won’t care what happened to your cat.

Are you kidding me? Give me a blade or 2 and that dog’s going down, I don’t care what kind it is. No contest. I’ve got a much longer reach and all I have to worry about is the stupid thing’s mouth
The only reason people think a dog could take down a human is because the dog always attacks aggressively and the human tries to defend himself and run away. But if you put a dog against an adult male human that knew a little about fighting and was INTENT on WINNING the fight . . . you’ve got yourself one dead dog.

I’m with Nate. I’ve run down several dogs that have been loose and tried attacking mine. A couple of them actualy pooped themselves when I charged them. A big angry person is just as scary to a dog as a big angry dog is to a person, if not more.
On topic though- It’s hard to predict how a second hand dog is going to respond to other animals. At least with a pup you will be able to shape their responses.
god, you know more about the situation than us… you guys need to start thinking for yourselves and stop reading Thibaudeau articles!
yeah right, you can tell that to my 210lb powerlifter as he removes the body from your throat. Regardless of your intention.
This is some great advice. I think I’ll just hold off on the dog. The last thing I’d want is for the dog to be too aggressive and have to get rid of it. Our cat is getting up there in age so we’ll just wait until he passes to get a dog. And the dog will be from a pound or rescue shelter. Gotta save the neglected ones!!
I’d say get the dog and asses his behaviour. Give it a good week or so and if it can’t adjust to the cats, feed him some anti-freeze.lol

Apparently you have never seen a trained personal protection dog, or a mastiff breed that intent on attacking.
If a large dog you didn’t know even growled at you, you would change your tune, Ive seen it.
If you knew what you were doing, I would give you a 10% chance of winning the fight but being seriously injured. Unless you had a gun, then you can win but in hand to hand, no way.
If a 110lb dog charged you, the first thing you would do would is freak out, and then run. If you stood your ground and tried to engage the dog you are going to get owned. American Bulldogs, GSDs, Rotts, and Chows are bread not to fear people and are trained to attack under stress and pain.
Have you ever even had a large breed. They are fast as hell, have teeth like razors and a jaws that are designed to crush bones to swallow them.
If it was as easy as you think the Ancient Romans, barbarian hordes, Germans in WWII and police whould never have used “dogs of war” to kill enemies, and instill fear in their foes.

Yeah right, to BOTH of you. I’d like to see either of you knuckleheads take on 75 pounds of frenzied English bulldog …
and yes, he is scared of cats…

well iam a 248 lb bodybuilder, and i do specialize in throat removal. all i can say to that is put your money where my hand is bitch.

Alright if after a quick investigation I discovered that the dog in question turned out to be a Navy SEAL-trained 110 pound motherfucker I’d decide I value my body too much to engage it with a knife.
Instead I’d just shoot it . . . in the legs.
. . . Then I’d wait a bit and THEN go in with a knife!

The lab/chow mix is designed to make a chow more mellow. Chows where used as Guard dogs in China and they are very territorial and dominant. They bond with one owner and are not the friendliest to other people. Many vets require chows to be muzzled when they check them out because they bite.
Chows are also very aggressive with other dogs and will take on larger dogs and do quite well because of just how aggressive they are. They have the same biting strength as a pit bull.
But, being part Lab it may be that it is more mellow and less aggressive, like labs.
Just so you know, I have had two full Chows and they kill most anything that gets in the yard, particularly cats. They have killed cats, rats, squirrels, possums, birds, etc. Anything in their space is pray.
So you are taking a risk if you get this dog while having a cat. But, they could get along fine or the Chow could take the cat out in about 2 minutes.

This is very true – you’d have to watch out with the Chow in the mix.

Are you saying the Chow would chow the cat…?

It’s like having a kid in some cases. I have had a couple of German Shepherds growing up, but had a border terrier when I first moved into my own apartment. That dog was truly like having a kid. He couldn’t be left alone for long. He got a shit load of attention from women though which was why he went everywhere with me. The next dog I get will be a boxer.

What the hell were you thinking, then? It really pisses me off when people complain about their inconvenient dogs. WTF? Let me guess, it doesn’t do what you tell it to, and behaves badly, right?
Guess who’s fault that is?
Getting a dog requires a commitment, end of story. I just hope that you don’t give up on it, and drop it off at the pound like so many other fair-weather dog owners.
But anyhow, thank you for reminding me why I like dogs more than people.

No, not really maybe a little emotional (maybe he just started some juice). Most people when pretaining to humans are kind of stupid when it comes to animals (especially dogs) since the puppy mills started coming around.
Humans are wusses (most of the time) when it comes to breeding/raising dogs or they are just ignorant to the facts. They are just for the money, when a dog is ill tempered (found by socializing at a young age) it is best to put it down, unless you are requiring a guard dog that won’t be in contact with humans that it doesn’t want to kill. People don’t take the time anymore to keep their dog from either breeding with other dogs or being neutered. Off of this sub-topic if you happen to get a ill-tempered dog instead of letting it be “passed on” put it down. We don’t need it going back into the gene pool.
I may sound like an ass for saying this, but put the poor beast down if it isn’t right.
