Let me clarify: we would love to give Hugo a home, and we're ready to start making the arrangements now. This is our old dog that we rescued from the pound about twenty years ago.

Seems like a happy ending in the making.
As for the thread-shitters, y'all seriously need your own heads examined. If you are so wrapped up in your hatred of a breed or type of dog that you can't shut up and let people do something good, y'all are some psychologically fucked individuals. |

Seriously, go fuck yourselves. A dog that has had a troubled past can overcome and be a great pet, just as a good dog can be trained to fight or for bait, like Hugo here. With an owner that will give him the love and security that he wants and needs and he will be a best friend. He looks happy and just wants a loving hand to be his friend too, and play and pet him. Fluffy is a saint to rescued dogs and those who need rescuing, and he is well respected around these parts ft or all he does for them. Before telling someone to kill a dog for his past, why not see the dog and let that make the decision for you. Or, like said earlier, to fuck yourselves and leave this thread be. Fluffy, tip o the cap again good sir for helping those who need it. You have a beer here if you get here, on me. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Would Those of you who came here with the sole purpose to defecate in a dog rescue thread kindly just go away. There is no reason to make the comments you are making, other than to be a troll. There are plenty of other threads in GD where your flinging of fecal matter would actually be appropriate.
This thread is not it. |

You're a good man Fluffy!
Maizie, Tracie and I thank you for your enormous heart. Good luck finding him a home. |

Fluffy FTW once again.
Fk all the nay sayers. Probably never owned a dog in their life. He will be a great pet to somebody. |

Fluffy,
I would love to take him, but funds right now don't allow for another dog (grad school, etc.) I can, however, help with transportation in the western NC if this dog needs to take a road trip. IM me and let me know

Been mauled 3 times since his rescue, sounds like shitty "fosters". |

Quoted:
Last year I helped rescue an American bulldog. I named him Hugo. Hugo was found wandering around an apartment building. A friend of mine runs a dog rescue in North Carolina and she took Hugo into her care. A subsequent examination by a vet revealed that Hugo had been used as a bait dog by dog fighters. He had some nasty injuries; however, he recovered. There were two attempts made to adopt Hugo; however, both attempts failed. Both adopters had other dogs and in both cases the other dogs attacked Hugo. Hugo is totally passive and submissive. He has no fight in him. He will not fight back or retaliate. It seems that he was trained to be a bait dog and he can absorb terrible punishment without fighting back Hugo is a very loving, affectionate and gentle dog and all he needs is patience and love. Now here's the sad part. My friend had Hugo in her yard last night and another dog entered the yard and chewed Hugo up. He is at the vet right now and he will recover. I am helping with his veterinary expenses and he will get whatever he needs. But Hugo needs a home. Will someone here give him a home? As I said Hugo is totally gentle and submissive. He has no fight in him. All he has is a gentle, loving heart. Here is today after being attacked. Please someone adopt him. <a href="http://s641.photobucket.com/user/Fluffy9lives/media/imagejpeg_21_zpsead0815f.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i641.photobucket.com/albums/uu138/Fluffy9lives/imagejpeg_21_zpsead0815f.jpg</a> View Quote my living arrangements are on the change I'll be moving here and looks like I'm getting a place with a fenced in yard. I might be able to take him after I move. I move in the next couple of weeks. i'd have to clear it with the land lord. if Hugo doesn't have a home by then let me know. |

Hugo returns to the vet tomorrow. The vet will install a drain and Hugo will be well in two or three weeks. I will keep everyone posted. |

I'm not getting whats so bad about having a dog,that is submissive to aggressive dogs and won't fight? That is unless you are a weak person and live vicariously through your dog to feel tough.

Alpha dogs will always try to establish dominance over a beta male. The more submissive the beta the more aggressive the alpha will be. I've dealt with abused dogs and when given love and attention they will usually develop the self confidence necessary to be great dogs as long as you don't put them together with another alpha. We have no intention of getting more than one dog. We don't need a "guard dog" so something like this isn't a problem for us. Had this dog been the aggressor in the altercations then you would have a good point. |

Ok, I re-read. I thought this dog was the aggressor. My apologies. View Quote A little late for that. Since when does being attacked and not fighting back constitute aggression? The OP and the whole fricking thread (minus your imbecilic comments) have been about this dog that keeps getting attacked by other more dominant dogs b/c he won't fight back. The pic of his injuries shows a dog with bite marks all over his face. But you weren't interested in the specifics. You just wanted to bash one of the bully breeds and those of us who like them. Oh, and I'm not a "he", I'm a "she". Don't bother apologizing for getting that wrong, too. |
