Last Sunday we took Suki to a pitbull get together on the beach.  There were other large breeds there as well and suki and I saw our first Staffie.

Suki and Sarah, they got along really well

Just thought this one was cute

Getting ready to go.  It took awile to get them all to sit quietly.  Overall a great day since Suki doesn't get to interact with large dogs very often.  Happy to say all the dogs got along great and not a single irresponsible handler.

That was right before Suki tried to wrestle him  Laughing He was a little over 60kg I think.

She was a bit undersized. She was a bit hesitant to interact with the other dogs at first but after a little time she started to really enjoy herself

Roxy and Vinny tower over breed-standard sized saffies and I think they're slightly taller than pitbulls too. The other day they met an Irish wolfhound, though, who they were in awe of.

Maybe Suki's recall wasn't great the other day 'cos she was looking for her friends  Laughing 

I watched a program the other night on Japan and they were showing there are parks divided into sections for large breeds and small breeds?

The other day she was after her enemy "Hawain hat guy". No idea why she reacts like that though. I used my command voice which everyone in about half a click heard and she didn't even turn around. The park has a strict on lead policy that we ignore since Suki is so good natured. The employees were laughing as well when she wouldn't listen. The only places here I've seen with divided sections based on size are on US military installations and that isn't strictly enforced.

Makes some sense though and would prevent accidents. Suki has a Corgi puppy she likes to play with but she outweighs her by 20kg or so. Suki knows how to adjust to a smaller dog but the Corgi is relentless. I've been worried a few times when Suki tries to asset herself because of the size difference.

Good point that. I actually have no idea what Vinny would be like with a smaller dog - Roxy is very gentle but usually the little ones they encounter are quite aggro  Laughing

We are lucky here in the fact that people normally take great care of dogs and make sure they are well socialized. If they aren't the handlers will pull their dogs close when you are approaching. Suki even has a Chiwawa (yes I can't spell) that she play with. She will run away and let him chase her which is funny to see
