Hi,
Recently I have been seriously considering full time RVing - once I retire in about 3 years.
I've been combing the internet gathering information, and came upon a forum that was discussing the dangerous breeds of dogs of which most RV parks will not allow.
I was heartbroken to hear that the Pit Bull (as well as a mix) is one of those breeds.
I own a female - 4 years old - that I have never had a problem with. At one time I owned 4 dogs - all different mixed breeds, and had never had a problem with her showing aggression to any dog or to any person. She loves children, and is especially gentle around my nephew who is 2 years old.
I know that there have been incidents where Pit Bulls have shown aggression - but it seems to me that if that is the case, it would mean that the owner is not teaching their pet proper obedience. And it doesn't seem fair that those of us that are responsible with our pets, have to suffer for the few that aren't.
I would love to hear anyone's personal experience who either owns a Pit and is a full time RV'r - or who knows of someone who is.
I don't want to give up the dream of full time RVing - but might have to in lieu of giving up my best friend.
Thank you,
Isna
