And this is why I will NEVER own a pitbull!!!!

[Bilz]

Honestly the level of denial and ignorance spewed by many pitbull owners just fuels the excessive hate that is directed toward the breed.

It's fine for a pitbull owner to think their dog is the sweetest dog in the world but you can't pretend that it doesn't have the ability to do a lot of damage on a bad day or even in a bad 2-3 seconds. They can be a very nice and loyal dog but no matter how sweet they seem, letting them around children or unleashing them in a dog park is just not a risk I would be taking. All of the pits who mauled dogs or children or even full grown adults had been sweet non violent dogs up until that point.

My dog has had a few instances where a playful rough housing match with another dog got a little too personal but he's only 25 lbs and he stops in his tracks if the other dog tells him it's too much or vice versa. He's not powerful enough for that momentary escalation to cause any damage. With pits it's a different story so they have to be handled with a much greater deal of care and responsibility. A good pitbull owner (and I think most of them are) realize that. Meanwhile, the pitbull owners who think this is all just a witch hunt without merit are the reason that these attacks keep happening.

I own a very sweet american staffordshire but please believe that I would not hesitate to shoot the shyt out of any dog that I saw attacking a person, mine included.

But that's the thing though, the bolded part.

Many pet owners have delusional views about their pets as if they were angels sent from heaven.

"Oh my dog would never do that ever ever ever ever''

It's still a dog...

Yes but people act like just do shyt out of nowhere. They don't. I have had 5 dogs. They don't just start getting aggressive one day.

You're putting yourself on the same level as a dog

No YOU put it on that level. I said it was bullshyt

Any dog will bite you. That's why they call them ankle biters. Everyone been barked at by every dog when approaching a home. Every dog will buck up at kids acting dumb. Every dog has the same warning signs. The same body language. The same triggers. And the same ways to earn offset those triggers.

The difference is pits are bigger, stronger, faster, so they succeed more in trying to kill you. But the intent is the same.

That's why they have professional trainers. Professional breeders.

You don't hear about those pits. You don't hear about big boi or the other famous pit breeders who have never had incidents with them or their dogs.

You see this dude in the video couldn't do shyt. Probably bought them shyts for 150 off his man and kept them caged up all day.

Yoooo... This is my town!

No YOU put it on that level.

The comparisons YOU are bringing up are saying that dogs deserve to have the same freedom & liberties as black people. They are dogs, not humans.

Waits for some faggit to come in and say "it's the owner not the breed blah blah blah" fukk those demonic dogs they should be put down. Can't stand that bred and I am cool with dogs so this ain't no dog hater gimmick.

100%

Agreed. and judging by your last post you seem like a levelheaded dog owner who knows the risks of owning an animal.

What I was referring to are the people who view their dogs as incapable of doing harm.

Dogs will fukking bite other dogs and humans for a myriad of reasons... every dog has the potential to bite.

If not, we wouldn't even need leashes.

I feel you, but that's still anecdotal evidence. At the end of the day they're still animals.

So while you and I may know it's highly unlikely that our dogs would ever snap and attack us, the same doesn't ring true for everyone. There are some dogs that do snap and go off without warning.

Grew up with four rotty's and i dog sit my friends 3 year old pit all the time. I'm more afraid of the rotty's

 

[Sunalmighty]

Well then violence is ingrained in them so your statement further reinforces my point, when they snap they snap. You have fools having these lethal weapons as a family pet until it decides to go for the children in the family. A violent and menacing bred that should not be owned by anyone period.

You sound like an old ass man complaining about the neighborhood scum lol. Yo, I agree though. People always say "any dog" but that's b.s. It's all about breed as far as I can see. Keep Ferrets out of the house too. One of em got loose and chewed this babies nose off a few months back. Give me a lab or a Yorkie and I'm good

I don't know how you got that. Freedom would be leaving them the fukk alone.

You bring a wild animal in your house. Don't do what's right to condition and train it for all situations. Then get mad at it when shyt goes left

my homies would be over talking shyt and shooting
pool and my pit would be on the couch kicked back
and in the event shyt got to rowdy he'd raise up
give me the ( you cool look),i'd tell him to chill
and he'd sit back down.

Damn I miss my Dawg, I will say they can be too defensive sometime...and when they really snap, it's hard to get em back in control, but a good owner can do it.
