“What if she... snaps?”
A realtor actually asked me this when I mentioned my service dog.
But dogs don’t just snap.
And neither do people.
We remember the bite, not the buildup.
We talk about the outburst, not the pressure it took to get there.
Aggression is rarely random. It’s communication that’s been ignored for too long.
Pit bulls, especially, carry the weight of everyone’s fear, not because of who they are, but because of what people assume.
🦻🏾 If we want to prevent harm, we have to start listening.
Before the growl.
Before the lunge.
Before the snap.
🔗 I made a free leash reactivity guide for dogs who’ve been labeled dangerous when they were really just scared.
It’s in my bio and it might change how you see everything.
