There is an inborn difference on average between golden retrievers and pit bulls (or chows, terriers, etc). Not to say they can’t be sweet too.. but there are differences in baseline temperaments

It’s tragic that it just so happens that all the horrible dog owners happen to have pits

Had a family in the ward with two pit bulls. Great people. Great dog owners. Dogs were good with their very active kids.

Pitbulls were bred to not show any signs of warning that they are about to

It was wagging and happy right up until I started raising my voice and waving my arms at it to leave. I wasn't going to

So what about my friend’s neighbor’s dog?????

There's about half a dozen logical fallacies with that defense.

Studies have shown pitbulls are by far the most violent dog breed

There is in fact a scale developed that shows aggression in various breeds

Dahlerbill

Forget aggressiveness scales. Maybe chihuahuas are more aggressive but who cares they can only tickle your ankles.

This is the dumbest argument that gets repeated over and over.

what about a list of killings. Where do pitbulls rank on that scale?

shimmy

9/6/19 11:17am

You're right - chihuahas and dachshunds are the most aggressive. But you understand the difference, right?

Did anyone read the article? 4 out of the 5 dogs are NOT PITBULLS

Rooney

9/6/19 2:53pm

Yep, and one was. Just another in a long line of stories in the recent weeks

I'm not giving them a pass. Just find it interesting.

Rooney

In the context of recent events it’s completely appropriate.

9/6/19 3:59pm

That’s false. Huskies are responsible for more bites per dog breed. Plus

Pits are the most deadly breed. The chart I posted above shows deadliest dogs by breed and accounts for the other breeds

Thank you for the facts. Pits and all their variants should be banned. Theres

We have a lot of employees get bit by dogs when they’re in a customers home. The most common breed has been pit bulls.

Those are voices. It isn't normal. You have schizophrenia.

I don't understand the pitbull narrative. 4 of the 5 dogs weren't pitbulls.

Sure. But it was the pit bull that killed her.
