people can be so ignorant

So last night Brian and I and the two pups jumped into the car and went as a family through the Raising Caine's drive-through to get some dinner. When we pulled up to the window to pay and get our food the second the dogs could smell the delicious aroma of fried chicken there was a frenzy and somehow little Echo ended up in my lap (I was driving!) Anyways when the guy came to grab my credit card he saw her and just loved loved loved her and got all the workers in the restaurant to come look at her and coo over her too. Then it happened. He asked "So what kind of dog is that?" And since most people wouldn't understand if I replied "Well I think she's a pitoxerdoodle, but it's quite possible she's mixed with a little Staffador retrieving hound" I tried the simple "We think she's a pit mix." And just like that his whole demenor changed. He handed me my meal and instead of replying "Have a nice night and enjoy your delicious fresh never frozen chicken!" he said "Make sure you're nice to her." Are you serious? The stigma associated with owning this breed is like nothing I've ever experienced in my life. It's like apartied in South Africa. Just because this breed attracks the scumbags of the earth doesn't mean all of us decent human beings who own pit bulls have dangerous dogs. The problem with pits is that ghetto people are attracted to this beed due to it's history and apperance. Macho ass holes buy these dogs and throw choke chains around their necks cuz they think this will make them more bad ass the same way ditsy socialites buy tiny little designer dogs and buy them their own wardrobes so that they can have the latest "in" accesories. There are no bad dogs...only bad dog owners...
