I know there will be a **** storm of people saying "They (pit bulls) are the best of dogs, raised 12 children around them with no problem", to which I say BS! Would not let any person, child or adult, near these hair trigger killers.

Quote:

A Florida woman was mauled to death by two dogs that neighbors say had terrorized the community and now the animals' owner is in jail.

Quote:

Meanwhile, the pit bull pair belonging to neighbor Linda Cutler "had once again gotten out of their yard and were roaming the neighborhood," Ivey said.

Nothing like a little Sunday afternoon OB rile up post. Well done, OP. Let's sit back and see how this plays out.

Also, I don't see a reference to the Cutler being any dog owners. Did you misquote the wrong article in your haste to troll the board?

Show me a pit bull, I'll show you an owner who themselves feel misunderstood and stigmatized by society...not every time, but a majority in my experience.

You had it right. It's every time. Pit bull owners are arrogant and want to impose their rights even at the risk of harm or Loss of life to others.

Terrible breed and not necessary. When will we start seeing local governments ban the ownership? As was just said, so many other breeds …

Who cares?

Maybe the dog signaled that it needed to go out?

I think we should eradicate all dangerous and scary dog breeds. Pitties, German shepherd, Doberman, etc.

Only thing anyone needs is one of those Golden Labra*****apoo or whatever the fad is they go to going on these days.

2 plus pages, I'd do that as a over/under.


Trivia question: which breed are responsible for most bites in a Austin study years ago?

Answer: Lovable Labs.

Pits have a normal dog bite ratio to other breeds for the most part. But here is the problem….

They have an incredibly strong bite force. Much greater than 90% of all breeds.

They bite and hold/tear at their target much greater fervency than other breeds.

They are very aggressive when in a pack.

A Lab will bite and be done, a Pit will kill you.

Pits are not welcome on my property. Ever.

doesn't matter. Can't victim blame on this.

I'm not blaming the victim and I fully support the prosecution of the dogs owner.

My personal belief is nothing good happens after midnight. Of course, that's not 100% true but it's something I tend to uphold in my life.

I have seen good pit bulls. Some great ones too. The problem is that many are raised to be aggressive and too many idiots want a "tuff" and intimidating dog.

And unlike many other dogs that get into a tussle with another breed, they tend to maul or kill.

My last two dogs and current one have been labs. My next dog will be a lab.

Never had any issue with the breed. We foster and rehome many many dogs. Maybe full blood ones are bad, but all of our "scary dogs that look like pits" are fostered and rehomed as mixed breeds. I think it's more the 'type' of owner that tends to own the breed that is more the issue than the actual breed. Kind of like how when you see a lifted dodge ram diesel you know pretty well what kind of bonehead is behind the wheel.

I'm tired of being told I "misunderstand" the breed by pit owners. Believe me, I fully understand the breed and it's pointlessness in today's society. If you want to live with a terribly trained dog that might bite someone unprovoked at anytime, be my guest but I don't want your dog anywhere near me or my dog.

I really don't like the breed and the endless number of people who put their blinders on when you give any kind of negative feedback about them. "Adopt don't shop" has skewed peoples views when it comes to what dogs we need to keep in society and which ones we need to cull to improve the genetics of dogs as a whole. Pit bull genetics have done no good for the dog species.

Can't answer that, because I was born in the 70's and have never owned another breed. I bet hog hunters have a good answer for you though.

one of my 8 year olds best friends has two pit bulls. he is not allowed to go to their house.

They have asked multiple times and we have just played the excuse card.

I told my wife eventually I will just have to tell the dad. I dont care. I am just assuming he will take it the wrong way. Oh well.

I kinda doubt that the vast majority of pit bulls are owned by hog hunters

Our Vet told us a pit bull he saw swallowed a box of nails. He could not surgically remove them. That dog crapped every nail out.

A box of nails.

They are not. I can honestly say, as a person whose grandfather bred these dogs from the 1940's until his passing in 1988, and we still own them to this day, that 90% of the public should not own these dogs. They do not play well with other dogs. That said it is not the dogs problem, it's the lack of understanding of the breed by macho types who want to be a tough guy with their pets.

This is a pitbull-




These are not-



From a purely technical genetic perspective, when you take a working dog (historically) and start breeding it for head size and girth you get a dog with problems. Anytime a dog is bred for looks instead of performance you have problems.

I hate that "America's dog" of the last century has turned into an ego extension for felons. Unfortunately that's where we are. Most people argue with us that our dogs are not "purebred" pit bulls because they are not obese or aggressive enough lol

My grandfather for reference a few years before I was born

Doesn't matter what time she was out. Maybe a nurse or similar that didn't get home till midnight or so. Pit bulls on the loose are bad news, I don't care how sweet you think they are. And they ARE aggressive towards other dogs.

I think you are an idiot to try to defend pit bulls. Here is no reason for the breed. I have never seen a news article describing a dog mauling where a pit bull was not the perp.
