Bebe

When we would fight the dogs would fight, since Bebe was loyal to me and Basher was loyal to Hank. That would calm things right down usually, since Bebe could kick Basher’s ass, and Hank didn’t want anything happening to his dog. They were both Pits, but Bebe was younger and she had the fire in her. This was pretty funny, since Basher was the tough guy’s dog, and Bebe was mine. They were both sweet dogs though, most of the time.

People have this misconception about Pit Bulls, that they’re all crazed killer dogs that will attack at the drop of a hat. Yeah, I mean that can be true, but it’s only because people train them to behave that way. It’s not just something they are. You have to be firm with them, give them a lot of love, and they’ll grow up all right. That’s all there is to it.

There was a horrible local story a short while back, so sick, about two Pits that broke through a fence and killed a little boy. Just ripped him up. And you know, when they captured those dogs they were covered with cigarette burns. Cigarette burns! Can you believe that? And at the owners house they found a fighting pen and all sorts of animal carcasses buried around the property. These dogs were trained to be bad, and they were put down right after they were examined. It’s the owners that should be killed. They’re the ones. Julios. Probably not even in the country legal. They’re talking about charging them with second degree murder, but I’ll bet they don’t even get six months.

Now some people are afraid to even come near our house. The dogs may bark, but they’re not going to hurt anyone as long as the people don’t act like they’re afraid. And as long as you don’t fight in front of them. One of these days Hank is going to hit me at the wrong time and place, and Bebe is going to tear his fucking throat out.
