This is such a relatable, quirky acrostic poem. It certainly shows how playful and loveable this breed is. The line "Always sucking on his woobie"
adds an endearing touch. The imagery conveys an image of a very happy pet. Thank you for sharing. - Terry

Terry,

Thank you for the kind review. He is a big snuggle bug and scared of his own shadow.

An excellent entry for the Acrostic Poetry Contest. A delightful poem about your fur baby. I love the image of him sucking on his woobie. Pit Bulls are so awesome and loving and I hate that they get such a bad rap most of the time. Good luck in the contest.

Thank you for the kind review. There needs to be more awareness about the breed and not just the negative stuff. Most of the negative is because the owner sucks!

Our son has had two beautiful pit bulls and I agree that they are the sweetest dogs around. Thank you for highlighting their great qualities. They don't deserve the reputation they've been stuck with.

Hi June,

Thank you for the kind review. It is a shame that so many people blame them and think they're evil. When I worked at Home Depot I was always one of the few employees who would run over to the pit bull and ask permission to pet.

Before we had Kratos I must say I was a little scared of the breed.

Like I say, don't judge them until you've owned one

Oh, first your notes -- you're darn tootin' = "People often blame the wrong end of the leash."

I loved your wee acrostic, and I love that you are promoting a breed that (so unfairly) gets a bad rap! Best of luck in the contest!

Hi Dawn,
Thank you for the kind review. You're right they are unfairly judged and it breaks my heart. At least they aren't banned over here like in England.

I could really picture your dog as I was reading this and how much you adore him as well. It made me think of my own dog as well, I always find it amazing how animals have different personalities just like us. A well written piece, I enjoyed reading it.

You are so right. the pit bull has an underserved bad rep. too many people who are evil at heart have raised them dogs to be well pit bulls who are if mistreated capable of being a real bad dog.

Hi Jake,

Thank you for the review. It is evil people like Michael Vick who had that dog fighting ring. Anyone who could do that and then watch it are heartless bastards. A positive note, all of those dogs were rehabilitated and are now service dogs. Thes dogs have big hearts and are able to forgive. It's amazing.

Great acrostic poem about Kratos, which tells a different story, as you said, about pit bulls. What you said about the "wrong end of the leash" being blamed carries a message that also applies to the raising of children. There are many people who don't want pit bulls or children because they've seen too many who've been raised by improperly taught care givers. Take care and continue to enjoy your time with Kratos. Daniel

Daniel,
Thank for the kind review. You're right about kids, some parents have no idea what discipline is and wonder why their kids grow up to criminals.

Pam,

THank you for the kind review. Pit bulls are some of the biggest babies you'll ever meet. They have a bad reputation, because all the media shows is the bad stuff. Raised right they are greaat dogs.

You are very welcome, and the media has a tendency to do that with many things.
