Country or city

Was wondering what kind of setting do you and your dogs live in? Do you live in the country or city and do you face any kind of pressure for owing these wonderful dogs?

I live in the suburbs. I get ugly looks but as long as no one says anything. I used to live in an area where everyone knew Legend! And they didnt mind having him around at all! I wish I lived in the country on my own couple of acres. So Legend and Gemmi could have alot of room to run around on! And maybe get a horse! lol

I'm kinda in the middle

I'm still in the city but there is lots of room between me and my neighbors. I'm on 5 acres.

I prefer to live in the country.

We live in the country and really out here no one bothers us.

I think once I'm done Vet Tech school. I'll move out to the contryside!

I live in the city.. I get the same ol' ugly looks too!!! I wanna move to the country so i can let my dogs have a good run everyday and not worry about nosey people!!!

I say city but it's more suburban I guess.

We live justoutside of town in a typical lake community,hilly and winding roads with tons of open land and farms close by. alot of richsnooty people in my neighborhood but they dont mind my dogs at all. they are very popular pooches around here

I started out in the country but I am now in the city, although my neighbors don't care for the breed (any breed for that matter) they look up to me for owning, training and showing my pits. Some of the ones that thought the media was all correct about the breed have come to realize as with most things you can't believe it!

Well technically I live in the country on 5 acres, BUT the lines have changed and this has become city limits, go figure. I don't have any problems, because quite frankly I don't think anyone knows the dogs are out here. I've lived in the city though, and most people snarl their nose, and act stupid.

i live in the subburbs, i get crazy looks all the time. my familys originally from WV so the hillbilly gene has kinda trickeled down to me i plan on buying 5 or so acers but around here thats about $1,500 an acre, im young ennough with nothing holding me back so im thinkin about moving oyt to WV with family.

dang I wish land was that cheap around here!! We paid $5000 an acre!

BUY IT NOW!!!!!!!!!

heck yeah!!! Go for it Weezie

5,000? dangggggggggg. i kno wyou have alot of acers but how maney is it again

5 acres. If I lived where you do i could have 15 for the same price just about. Seriously though, if you have 1500 buy just one acre. Land is the only thing they arent making more of!!!!!!!!!! Land will always go up, you will never lose money in land!

Thats how it is here. I'm on 5a but still in city limits. Its strange how it set up. All of my land is on one side of my house. My neighbors house is right next to mine, about 20ft away on the left side of mine and my 5a are on the other side Its wierd look'n. It goes back two a and over 3a.

wow ! Im gonna sell and move closer to you guys. 1/4 acre lots are 150,000 bucks in my hood and I have a half acre lot. My property taxes are 6000.00 a year

OMG!!!! That is crazy high!!!! Wow!! I couldnt do that, thats my rent for 6 months!!

Holy Sh**!! $6 g's. You need to move to the US....lol Mine is only 1200 a year.

I only paid 1800 an acre. My house was originally only 2.5 acres but when they tore down the house on the other side of me, i bought the lot which was another 2.5 acres.

I need to do that!!!!!

I'm more in the country I guess. I live in a trailer, but none of the neighbors are "too" close, and I'm not too far away from anything. I live in the city limits, but I have plenty of room.

i live tn the country... as far as people messing with me about my dogs no problem they all family.

Wow!!! 1200 a year for rent?? MY god!! I pay $950 a month....

Thats about what houses are per 1/4 acre here. My property taxes are only 3000.00/yr though.

We live in the city limits, but we have a large yard, almost an acre. We have gotten some crap about the dogs being pitty's, but it's amazing how many pitty lovers have come out of the wood work here since we had our pups advertised. We have made alot of new friends and we have educated alot of ppl. We have had the animal control called on us once, but thankfull the animal control officers here all know the true nature of pits, not to mention my hubby, Nick, knows them all and they know our dogs.

One time I took 2 pups to the park. The pups were crashed out on a park bench sleeping away. This lady asked me what breed they were. I told her APBT and she told me they were so sweet natured at that age!!!! I couldn't believe it. Then a different time we had a lady ask how we trained our pits to be so sweet!!! It amazes me how ppl can be so retarded. I'm sure we all have stories about niave ppl. LOL
