    Thank you for the kind review. They are sweet dogs. I'm just trying to get awareness of their sweet dispositions.

Hi Cecilia,

Well, I love animals and your beloved Kratos in your picture looks friendly :-) He looks adorable ... I've always been a little intimidated or should I correct myself, been terrified of pit bulls in the past. My husband runs his own business and got a part-pit as a watch dog named Fred on his property. Fred was a big baby actually and his bark was much worst than his bite. He befriended people at the gate wagging his tail. Ahh well :-)

Love your acrostic showing love to your sweet Kratos.

Long live all pets!

Thanks for sharing,
Senyai

    Senyal,

    Thank you for the awesome review. I was like you a little leery. We got him at 8 wks old and he was a spoiled boy. He is a big cuddle bug, and big coward :)

That is a beautiful pit bull. Your notes are so right. People have labeled them as bad dogs, but it is how the little dog is raised up and treated. We had two pit bulls come into our back yard years ago. They were females and had just had puppies, but not puppies in sight. The so called owner took off with the puppies and left the adult dogs on their own. We fed them and petted them. One was black and one was tan. We named one Blackie and the other Tannie. We loved those two dogs. So sweet. We never knew what happened to them. Blessings, Teri

    Thank you for the kind review. I hate people that abandon dogs. For me my dogs are family and I can't imagine abandoning them.
    They are sweet and big snuggle bugs. It's all in the raising.

I am an advocate for dogs. We have three in our house and they are in charge.

I agree, Pit Bulls get a bad rap. There are a few in my neighborhood and they just make me smile they are a bunch of goofballs.

Excellent acrostic, on the perfect subject.

John

Hello Cecilia.
You did an excellent job maintaining the acrostic style through the poem. I was not familiar with the term woobie, so I learned something today. You are correct about a dog being as good as its owner. We see that every day.
Robert

    Robert,

    Thank you for the kind review. Yes, pit bulls are the under dogs right now. It sucks because a lot RV parks won't allow them. They are great dogs if raised right. Kratos is a snuggle bug. I'm just trying to get awareness of the breed.

You are so right, we sometimes can add that bad label to innocent souls, so thanking for making justice to this special puppy. Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings and the contest.

    Iza,

    Thank you for the great review. I am trying to bring awareness to this breed. I have another poem I am writing about him. It's giving me grief.

You make Kratos sound so cute, sweet, and adorable. I've read that pit bulls make great family dogs and are great around children. However, most people are afraid of them because of their reputation. You did a fantastic job with your first Acrostic poem. Best wishes in the contest.

    Thank you for the great review. I appreciate it. Pit bulls are great dogs. I was a little leery when we got him. He was raised correctly. He's a big snuggle bug.

I am sure, I think, but maybe, yes certainly. Have I read a short story about this mischievous dog and an electric fence incident.
If I didn't then forgive me but it was a very similar dog and story's can start to flow together at times.
As a dog dad myself I do agree, it's not the dog, it's the owners.

    Thank you for the kind review. No it wasn't me that wrote that story and I do understand how everything seems to run together after awhile.

Thank you for sharing this acrostic contest entry with us. Yes, pit bulls get a horrible name, and usually because of poor owners. I enjoyed reading and good luck with contest.
