it's something to see this brittish staffordshire at 62 lbs. approach
newborn kittens whose eyes had just opened born under the house. the
only way i can describe it is he tentatively and slowly approached the
kittens, they are now the greatest of friends, he's curious and playful as
well as being the gentlest of creatures. no, he's not fixed, as he's not
broken. i should really wish i'd had the privilidge of meeting one of
the breed homo sapians in this life that i trusted half as much as this
incredible friend. yes, i had noticed that rotts have the same inteligence
loyalty and dependibility of the bull terrier, i admire them as well.
one thing i will say on closing is that you must understand the breeds
discussed on their level, if you do this and don't abuse them you'll
have much more amicable relations than any you're likely to find on
the job in the office in interactions with us ' civilized, superior humans'.
just my opinion. best regards.
