11. Know the feeling!!

I have two little English Staffordshire terriers so I know how you feel. One is 11 years old and the other is almost four. My 11 year old is a rescue. She was beaten and abused in EVERYWAY possibile. Cigarettes put out on her face, broken ribs, used as a breeding bitch and everything bad you can imagine. Now she gets fed steak on Friday, walked daily, sleeps in bed with us and just basically treated like a queen. as for my other little girl, she's never seen a day of abuse in her life. We've had her since she was the size of my hand. Anyway, I can't walk them withouth at least one person crossing the street. And mine are only 45lbs!! If people would give them a shot, they'd find that the only thing dangerous on them is their tongues!! Lol. The only way I'd be afraid they'd hurt anyone is if you were to try to hurt me, one of my children or my husband. Then you might find yourself in trouble. But that's what dogs do. Or at least they're supposed to do.
