A pit bull is more likely to exhibit bad behavior outside of its native habitat: trailer parks.

"It's not the breed, it's how they were raised."

This one was raised to attack babies I guess.

Advocates at the time of the change argued there is no evidence that a breed makes a dog dangerous


What a laughably idiotic premise. What kind of moron would not completely dismiss these advocates the second they make that statement

Terrible.

Guess the breed.

Yeah yeah yeah, I know.

It's the owner, not the breed.

The owner totally trained his dog to kill an infant.

if one breed was culled you would eliminate about 85% of dog related deaths. Cull 3 or 4 breeds and lethal dog attacks would be pretty much 0. One of those things some people have pretended not to notice, much like who tends to own those breeds.

Owning a pitbull is pretty much an IQ test. People with room temp IQs get very defensive when you point it out to them.

Absolutely horrific. I simply can't understand why anyone would have one of these dogs in their home at all, but particularly people with children.

Is this a pit bull? Our back neighbors have 2 of these ****ers. They are huge and aggressive. I had to reinforce that entire area as you can see. If I look over the fence, they go INSANE. They want to rip me and my dogs apart. Another neighbor said they once got out and chased her but she managed to get inside before they caught up to her.

The city has not done anything about them. There is a ban on pitbulls here but apparently they don't care. (If this is a pitbull)

The owners are real ****ty too. Sometimes they tie them up back there with no access to food or shelter. I've called on that too.

Colorado sucks.

Use a .22
Let their owners figure out if they want to save/$$ them or put them out of their misery.

That breed should be diminished to folklore

Oh, look. A pit bull killed a baby.

Why does anybody with small children set this situation up so it could even happen?

Another pit bull that had never shown any signs of aggression.

Weird.

This is horrific. I can't wrap my head around why any decent human being would want to own one of these dogs.

They could breed a pit bull type breed that looks basically the same but has a less severe bite strength and much less prey drive and is more docile, but you have a large fraction of the breeders who simply don't care to select for those things or purposefully select for maximum strength and damage potential and more prey drive and reinforce the potential for harm.


It's not that they bite. It's that they latch on and keep hitting and shaking and are very damaging when they do, and have the instinct to sustain the attack longer.

Pit bulls kill their owner.

Shocking.

Terrible story. Young lady just trying to make a few extra dollars, probably, and gets killed by pit bulls.

One of my co-workers is about to download a tricycle motor next month, but showed me a pic of her pit-bull, who she called "the sweetest thing". As this is her first, I am genuinely concerned
