Yeah there's that. -> > -> > trustworthy, -> > And a Pit Bull has substantial power though this one is the gentlest dog -> > I've ever met. -> And one of the gentlest dogs i have ever read about. -> > It does give one pause when I feed him a raw turkey neck as a treat and he -> > effortlessly chews through it. -> Which is why i stay well away from any dog i dont know, particularly -> big dogs, -> particularly during dinner time. -> > I can't cut through one with a serated steak knife. -> Here is a mad idea, have you tried just ripping it?. Essentially what I do, start with the knife, break it in my hands than finish with the knife. -> > I can actually take food out of his mouth without the least difficulty. -> Aha, i dont like my chances of succesessfully completing that party -> trick. He trusts me and knows I'm just messing with him. IOW's he knows he'll get it right back. Shocked the neighbors one time he snatched up a pork bone outside. It caught in his throat so I reached way down and extracted it removing my hand and arm without so much as a scratch. Now he's been wised up to outside food and gives it a pass. -> > -> > He still hogs the lion's portion of the bed however. -> > -> Of course but you would expect that of a dog of his Standing, Age and -> > He'll get down on request however upon waking he's back up here -> Obedient but too loyal and passionate, a common problem with some -> dogs, and -> people. I don't know about "too loyal", I haven't found a downside to him yet. -> > He's here now, -> Of course. And now right on my foot. -> > dead smack in the middle of the bed. -> Of course, give him a hug from me. Sure and this will get me a big wet kiss upside the face.
