I have a pit bull terrier and I love her to death but the problem is I barely take her for walks. She isn't overweight or depressed but it makes me feel bad because I can't walk her. Am I a bad owner?
if you can't walk your dog at least once a day then yes you're a bad owner
wish more dog owning idiots would understand this, its bad for the dog

The thing is I have a very large yard and let her out half a hour for every 2 hours and regularly play with her and give her toys to play with along with another dog. As I said does this still make me an ass?

>Uneducated = bad
I think you're the idiot anon

the same yard every day with the same toys every day and the same dog every day are boring
the purpose of a walk isn't just to pee, it's to sniff things. smelling a lot of new scents in new areas is sometimes even better than just plain exercise. it stimulates the brain
It sounds like she is getting enough exercise, which is really important, especially for pits. However, as >>2361208 said, walks are about more than just peeing/pooping and exercise, but mental stimulation.
Why don't / can't you walk her?
>>2361195
Walks are good for mental enrichment and getting a bond with the dog and owner. However it is not the only way to do both of these things at the same time. Maybe consider teaching your dog fly ball or agility training. Also make sure to switch out toys. You don't need to buy all new toys every week, just keep recycling the same ones. Just like kids, if you hide a toy for a month and hand it back to them, they will get very excited over it.

>ignorance is fine
nope, it's you
>>2361198
Not that guy, but I'd say it doesn't make you an ass. Keep in mind the time spent walking your dog is also time spent with your dog recognizing you are in control and it's also good quality time. Just map out a good walk path with few other dogs at first until your dog gets used to it.

I wish more idiots would understand that dogs aren't meant to be outside. I'm tired of hearing these constant maulings from "muh friendly dog". Keep your shits inside and stop letting them roam around and leaving them in your yard.
> Pit owner
> Doesn't even exercise his dog
You're not only a bad owner but a retard. I hope you'll soon get mauled to death. This is what you deserve. Well at least you bought the good dog for this

Eventually all dogs maul their owners. This is a fact.

on you or the dog?
>>2361205
You're wrong dude
You cant be a good anything without education, not even a good shitposter
>>2361365
Not to death anon
Or it's called a pit

All dogs are the same murder machines. If you connect with a dog and feel like it has emotions or love towards you then there's something very wrong with you. It's a mental illness.

Can you imagine?
To be this closed minded, and unintelligent.

You and everyone else responding to him are taking the bait so hard right now. Just ignore.
He appears to be a salty catfag trying to apply cat hate memes to a dog thread
