I am amazed at how you draw parallels between the myth of nanny dogs and raising your kids. You are free to leave your dogs in charge of the kids. I don't want to meet you, I don't care how you raise your kids, I don't even care if you think the silly comments your peers make are explained well. If ignorance is bliss, you are some happy individuals. I disagreed with the OP's idea about this being interesting pitbull history. Most of us probably grew up with dogs, have pictures to prove it, and know our dog(s) were protective. That being said, I bet if you look at any reputable book about game dogs, they don't have a chapter about nanny dogs. Please contact me at the political correct squad office if I am incorrect. I would also like anyone who runs a daycare with dogs instead of teachers who is state certified to contact me as well.

My cousin had a pit he raised from a pup that was about 2 when his daughter was born. His daughter and that gyp were inseparable. The gyp would keep a constant eye on her staying between her and any trouble. It was all well and good until one day my cousin got onto his daughter and went to spank her in front of the gyp. That gyp wanted to eat him up and tried to an extent. That gyp didn't last much longer. She was doing what she thought her job was and he kinda hated doing what he felt he needed to do. That gyp was bred out of old game lines. Good dog just doing her job.

This post is about to the same point as the media trying to convince everyone Obama is a good president, and gun control is a good idea.
Nope not buying that fat hog......

I ran across an article with some nice old pictures that I thought was interesting and I thought others might find interesting. If you think it's all BS fine. Your comment about ignorance is bliss is nice, proves you think we are ignorant. What were you looking for when you come to this sight? You strike me as someone that's gonna pick apart everything you read. One of them politically correct type. One of them types that likes to piss on parades if you will. Man, I wasn't around in the late 1800's or early 1900's, the era the article was referring to, I just thought I'd post it for others to see. |

I was raised by wolves. How's that for a nanny dog?  I grew up with a boxer that would let nobody but my daddy and grandma get near me. I remember I wondered off walking to far and he stayed right by my side. I guess he heard my pops hollerin for me and some how he got me to turn around. |

I dont think anyone is advocating heading to work after giving the nanny dog her instructions for caring after the kids while u r gone. But at one time in our history, men went out to the fields and mom was busy in the house, the kids were outside and the dog was their protector. From the stories, they did a good job.

x2...as a kid I was babysat under the cotton trailer in the field and when I was about 6 I made cotton mounds in front of my grandpa and he would put them in his tow sack when he came up on them...my oldest sister stayed home to run the house while mom was in the field and then mom would go home an hour early to cook for us...that is how it was back then...the dogs hunted and protected the farm/family of strangers/predators...most any mutt worked out if they wanted to eat... |

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...

Periodically I read in the paper were some idiot left his kids with the dog while he went to score some meth or go to the bar, the end result being something goes horribly wrong while he is gone. I can only imagine he thought about his nanny dog before he left. I have a big bulldog that will injure my kids with his tail or drown them with drool, and I have culled some bulldogs that didn't act accordingly around the kids. I just don't like the nanny dog bs, in most dog bite cases involving children, they were alone with the dog or not properly supervised with the dog. Admiring pictures of kids and dogs is fine but furthering the myth that they were nanny dogs is a disservice to pit bulls and bulldogs.
Someone has to always ruin a good conversation!! I can guarantee the my ybmc or redbone pit would sooner die than hurt one of my kids. |

If the idiots in the stories you were reading were off on journeys to the bar to get plastered or to go buy some meth to get his/her high, I'm pretty sure it's safe to assume that said person was not thinking anything at all about his 'nanny dog', nor the children for that matter. I think as others have mentioned that this thread was simply to enjoy old time pics of kids that grew up with dogs by there side as constant companions. I enjoy old photos like these, regardless of the breed. Pretty sure the majority of us have enough sense not to even toy with the notion of leaving ol' Sparky home to tend to the chillrens while mom and pops go out for a night on the town.  |
