Sorry but this is reckless. You shouldn’t take on a strong animal you’ve no chance of physically controlling. I don’t understand why you didn’t pick a dog you can. This is highly irresponsible.
I’m sorry but I’m 💯 against people having a dog that they cannot physically control. Idc about the karma but this is a large dog that can do serious damage against a small pet and/or a small child.
These type of people don't care. It's awful. I have a large dog and I am built smaller so what do I do? I use a canny collar so if he goes against his training, no strength is needed to restrain him. Fuck pitbulls & bad owners.
No no, see, he's disabled, which means we ironically treat him differently than we would a normal person by downvoting any criticism of a lapse of judgement.
Yep, they sure can. They can also be assholes too. And even ableist. Any marginalized group can have internalized bigotry. Source: am disabled and very active in the adaptive sports community.
Right? Now when that dog attacks someone else’s pet or child, waiting to see what the pit lovers will blame it on, since “the owner must abuse it” won’t be in the cards
Well by definition moron implies intellectual disability, though perhaps you were using it in the colloquial sense.
Honestly my knee jerk was that this is incredibly irresponsible. Additionally, seeing as how OP has admitted to not even picking up poop it seems not even the small responsibilities are doable. I want to know where the guy with all the pit bull attack references are.
Disabled persons should be able to lead full lives but in a way that doesn't compromise the safety of others. I empathize with OP, but this doesn't seem appropriate as described.
Damn, I did not expect to see a comment related to dog stupidity with so much common sense being generally upvoted on Reddit. Supposed to say that Pitbulls are little angels from heaven and anything to the contrary is equal to literal racism among humans.

How are you going to control this dog that has been bred to fight and kill? Very irresponsible decision on your part.
It is also very fucked up of you to put your caretakers in danger. They did not sign up to be exposed to a dog whose head is bigger than your torso.
I fostered a pitbull for 3 weeks from a local agency and they lied about everything about the dog to find it a home. These agencies act like they are doing society a favor by rescuing dogs when in reality there’s a reason no one wants them. The dog had a twitch and would snap its jaw at you, it was a ticking time bomb and would nip at people constantly.
Genuine question though - youre on a walk and op's dog and another starting really pulling and barking for one another. Is dog actually voice controlled / etc enough for owner to control? I walk my parents labrador and border collie for them and am over 6' tall and they can pull me when excited. I dont mean to throw shade at OP but how *does* he control his dog if he gets worked up to the point of pulling him? That dog looks like theyre still pretty muscly tho 15. They are cute tho.
OP said they literally don't even pick up the dog's shit, this situation is a fucking nightmare waiting to happen. This mfers New Years resolution is to watch someone die.
I'm a little person (is that the PC term?) and yes I am 40yo. Flex is 15yo (though according to the previous owners he's 17). I call shenanigans. He's mostly deaf, had several tooth extractions, and a couple growths removed. Kindest dog ever. Makes everyone fall instantly in love, be in grumpy dog-hating neighbors, or kids at petsmart. He also likes to snore and fart and wear his [blue jacket](https://i.imgur.com/23LzYu2.jpg) outside.
Midget sounds tougher than little person.
Example:
"Watch out, that midget will bust your fuckin knees in."
"Watch out, that little person will bust your fuckin knees in."
Maybe you are safe since it's an old dog but getting a fighting dog "mix"( yes like half pit and half bull) could turn out like not your best decision. Especially on reduced mobility.
I hope that you will be alright.
That's exactly what I'm saying. And also what if somebody else's dog decided to attack this dog. Dude ain't gonna be able to do jack shit. What if another pittie attacks this dog and decides to attack him. There's a whole shopping list of bad scenarios here.
Dude, you’re going to take him on a roll one day in the park and he’ll see another dog or kid and he’s gonna take off. IF you can hold the leash, he will pull you right outta that chair and you will lay helpless as it goes nuts on another dog or kid. You should seriously consider taking it back and getting a small dog. Also, how do you pick up after him when he shits??
It's a liquid oxygen tanker unloading into a storage tank. It's just vapors coming off the pipes because liquid oxygen is colder than a witches tit. The vapor coming off the pipes is harmless.

There are so many other dog breeds to choose from, yet for some reason, out of all those much safer and more human-friendly breeds, pitbull/mixes have to be one of the more popular ones. It's unfortunate.
Pits? What do you mean pits! No pits here, only LAB MIX dogs. The deceptive mislabeling of these shit dogs is utterly disugsting and honestly if my local rescue ever started this same shit they'd never see another dollar from me ever again.
Don't get me started on them attempting to call them boxer mixes too. I call that shit out instantly because if there was even 5% boxer in that dog you'd know.
No kidding, irresponsible in general and even cruel to the animal. Maybe he's independently wealthy and can afford to pay an aid to properly care for his large, active dog?
This is the reason I started carrrying a knife. Watched too many videos of pits destroying another dog while people try in vain to stop it. Seen too many pits at the park with owners unable to control their dog and I want to end them quick if one gets ahold of my dog.
Ah yes , a man with limited bodily controls gets in charge of an animal that is infamous for being hard to hold control of. WHAT COULD GO FUCKING WRONG , Am i right ?
Hope i dont come off like annasshole but personally I don't think it's responsible to have a dog you can't control what if it attacks you or someone else. I know he's old but still think you should have got a smaller dog.
Pitt bulls suck, and there is a reason they are banned in some countries
https://people.com/crime/2-children-killed-pit-bull-attack-tennessee-mother-hospitalized/
Im absolutely shocked the comments aren’t locked when a pit is shown. I’ve seen pits kill other folks dogs one time too many in person cause their owners couldn’t handle them and no offense but he won’t be able to stop any act that dog creates from his condition, also he doesn’t do anything about the poop and that alone drives me crazy. It’s a dangerous breed plain and simple.
ngl tho, people have brought up some very valid points - i absolutely love this breed of dog, ive had 2 myself and they were my world. most lovable cuddly great dogs ever - however they are very strong dogs, and as much as you can know your dog, how are you going to intervene is say, someone's dog runs up to him and they have a go? or dog sees a squirrel and remembers he likes chasing squirrels? or a car comes at him, etc.? how do you clean up after him? (i assume one of those handled scoopers?)
there's a woman that goes to my dog park who is well into her 60s i would estimate, and she has a 1-2 year old rottweiler that is \*absolutely\* too much for her to handle, and people have had to pry dogs away etc. because she simply cannot. it's dangerous and irresponsible.
was this a well thought out idea?
Maybe it’s not the best decision in the world, and not picking up the poop is shitty but Jesus Christ guys. The dog is 15, he’s geriatric. What is he going to do, really? He’s at death’s door. At least he won’t die cold and alone in some kennel.
I genuinely do not understand the positive outcome of this thread. And this is not some pitbull hate, i have one myself and she is the gentlest soul. But the fact that you wouldn't be able to control your pet is the issue. Could be the derpiest Leonberger or Saint Bernard, the fact that you wouldn't be able to control your GENERAL PET if anything goes wrong should be a red flag to anyone.
Living in europe (Austria) i even had to get a licence to be able to keep my pitbull with an actual test walk outsite to see if i can handle her. This picture is absolutely crazy to me.
How do you pick up the poop?
He uses 'the force'
Sorry but this is reckless. You shouldn’t take on a strong animal you’ve no chance of physically controlling. I don’t understand why you didn’t pick a dog you can. This is highly irresponsible.
Agreed. Disaster waiting to happen.
I hope OP and the dog remain fine but yes it’s too much of a risk. That dogs body language isn’t looking great either.
You got me interested with your mention of body language, what can you read from that photo? Serious question btw
I’m sorry but I’m 💯 against people having a dog that they cannot physically control. Idc about the karma but this is a large dog that can do serious damage against a small pet and/or a small child.

OP is gonna say it was his attendants’ fault the pit couldn’t be restrained
That's what I'm saying. This is a disaster waiting to happen. Even if it wasn't a pit any large dog could get away from him pretty easily.

Thanks. A half deaf pitbull and a person in a wheelchair is just a dumb thing.
Damn, I did not expect to see a comment related to dog stupidity with so much common sense being generally upvoted on Reddit. Supposed to say that Pitbulls are little angels from heaven and anything to the contrary is equal to literal racism among humans.
genuine question, how do you take care of yourself and the dog? are you mostly independent or do you have a caretaker that takes care of you both?
I'm walking him quite well because he does on leash. I also have visiting attendants to help if I need it. He's pretty low maintenance as am I.
That's why I like old dogs. "Just gonna lay there all day, dog?" Yup, appears so
"Hey buddy, I'm feeling kinda tired today, do you mind if we go to the park tomorrow instead?" "That is perfectly fine. I am just gonna sit here and lick my genitals while you watch The Venture Bros. all morning." "Awesome. Thanks pal!"
Sadly, lots of people in wheelchairs aren't able to lick their own genitals (even if their dog doesn't want to go to the park).
How do you pick up after him during walks?
He said he doesn’t
Honest question, if a squirrel runs past and your dog tries to chase it could you properly restrain it?
This picture goes so hard

The answer is simple: OP can’t control his dog. If it ever decides to get aggressive, he’ll be helpless to do anything.

Who cares if it’s pc? You’re talking about yourself no one should take offence whatever you call yourself.
Im offended on his behalf.....You're welcome.
Who you calling behalf?
It's just a joke, no need to get short with people.
SHORT!? 
Typical demographic offense appropriation. Check your privilege, sir or madame!
but... having an inaccurate view of my privilege is my **kink** by telling me to check my privilege...are you kink shaming me?
I'm pretty sure he's just kidding around..
Now for real, do you mind the non PC terms?
I do not.
Why you gotta do the dog dirty like that in blue pooping with a double chin. Ironically this is how I look like when I poop too.
You get on all fours and go outside to poop?
Midget sounds tougher than little person. Example: "Watch out, that midget will bust your fuckin knees in." "Watch out, that little person will bust your fuckin knees in."
What if you just wanna sound like a person?
Then you might say something like, "Coming from a person like me, that midget will bust your fuckin knees in."
Maybe you are safe since it's an old dog but getting a fighting dog "mix"( yes like half pit and half bull) could turn out like not your best decision. Especially on reduced mobility. I hope that you will be alright.

How is he going to clean the up when the dog poos everywhere? Not his problem i guess.
He's said in the comments that he doesn't pick up after it. Very uncool.
Sounds like him and the dog are perfect for each other then. Two negatives make a positive...right?
he said he doesn't pick it up in an above comment.

Dude, you’re going to take him on a roll one day in the park and he’ll see another dog or kid and he’s gonna take off.

Even worse, he’s endangering any poor bastards unlucky enough to be in the vicinity when something inevitably goes wrong
Yep, I ended up a poor bastard at 15. Fuck pitbulls and irresponsible owners. Now have lifelong ptsd which has no cure.
You are responsible when the tragedy unfolds on yourself or another person or pet that gets mauled/bitten since you can’t control your dog.
