    @shadow I found the guy on Facebook (Nikki Panday, Dumaguete). He's got a 3 month old male American bully still available.

    Thanks, looking for female, our Bully would probably not tolerate another male around.

    If you go on FB and do a search, there are a number of local Bully and Pitbull groups in the Dumaguete area that should have what you are looking for.

    How do you guy's find the pit-bulls behavior? in AU they have become a big problem, killing their owners and attacking kids, also very aggressive towards another dog that comes near to them, some swear by them for pig hunting but I myself would not trust them, I have been around the normal bully used for pig hunting they are a good pet even around kids, but still common sense is needed.

    First, I do not have nor have I ever had a Pitbull. I have American Bulldogs, which is the closest DNA relative to the Old English Mastiff. American Bulldogs were bred from Mastiffs in the US by the southern ranchers in the 1800s for the purpose of protecting crops from the wild bore populace. There are two breeds of AB, the Scott (Bully) type, and the Johnson (standard) type, named after the two men who saved the breed from extinction and made it what it is today. ABs and Mastiffs are by nature very gentle and loving creatures.

    Pitbulls, AKA American Pitbull terrier, AKA Staffordshire terrier, are names for specific breeds of bulldog whose genes have been mixed with other breeds for the purpose of fighting. Usually this other breed was some member of the terrier family, whose genes are known to be very aggressive with a nasty temperament. The American Bully is a hybrid of Pitbull/Staffordshire terrier genes which was actually initially bred to make a family pet. They do make good pets when a dog of good temperament is brought up correctly. In a litter of pups, there are generally aggressive pups and docile pups.

    Pitbulls and Bulldogs in general everywhere have a bad reputation. That reputation is a product of the type of person that normally would own a dog of that stature. They breed and train them for fighting and protection, and the most aggressive are bred with the most aggressive to make an even meaner dog. This has been going on for 100+ years, so yes there are going to be some issues involving overly aggressive dogs.

    The AK-47 has a bad rep as compared to the 30-30 Winchester, but is it the gun, or the type of person who would own such a gun that made that reputation?

    In most all cases where the dog has "turned", no matter what the breed, it is the fault of the humans, not the dogs. Dogs think differently than people, often it is a misunderstanding of the animal that has caused the attack. Humans are supposed to be the more intelligent creature, yet they fail to educate themselves and their about dog behaviour. Of course, it is always the dog's fault.

    back to security topic

    I purchased a bright quartz spot light, and wired it into one of outdoor light. I then had the shop wire into it a small somewhat quiet buzzer, they had loud ones. While the unit upstairs from me got broken into I never had a problems myself. Most of the times the buzzer has gone off it is a small animal, but no one has complained. That has been almost two years now. That can be a two day fix if you are lucky on the existing outdoor light issue.
