eric, you allow same sex adoptions?? you know that same sex adoptions should not be, due to the dog on dog aggression in this breed,.

You can note that Doreen had apparently never fostered babies before, since she asks alot of questions about the process.
Perhaps, Eric, you should have gone with a more experienced foster home for the mom and babies?
Maryellen wrote:ps- if you can not assess a pit bull for its temperment and must rely on other people and trainers then you shouldnt be in rescue.. if you are in rescue you should have learned the proper temperments of the breed and the proper way to temperment test them. anyone who allows a stranger of a shelter or a trainer to evaluate a dog especially a pit bull instead of you evaluating the dog should not be in rescue. you are placing the breed and humans at risk.

Happens more and more today, I believe.
We all know how few and far between good, knowledgable, safe homes ARE for this breed. I can't imagine it's much different with "rescues"....the last place on EARTH I'd let one of MY dogs get into...

It's sad that Doreen's first mom/puppy foster turned into such a negative thing. From what it sounds like, they regret what happened as well.

At that time, Doreen and her husband didn't KNOW what the green dot meant?? Nobody told them what it meant, and nobody found out until much later, if I'm reading this all correctly?

As for shutting the door, Doreen was IN the room. What kind of man shuts his wife in the room with a dog that just tried to attack HIM?
She didn't mention it (aggression) because she didn't SEE it until a day or two into the deal.
You and I both know that there are times when pit bulls are unstable due to breeding, and circumstances (such as, she's never been shown love by humans).
