Pitbulls gonna Pitbull

Kid probably made a sudden movement or something. It's his own damn fault.
9 year old.
Alone.
Trailer.
3 pit bulls.
No way anybody could have seen anything bad happening here.

But they were so good with kids, they've never done anything like this before. Lather, rinse, repeat.
Genocide of this breed and their owners can't happen quickly enough.
Breeds like pit bulls are sometimes referred to as a "loaded gun." If only they were that benign.
This boy would have fared a much better chance against an accidental gun discharge than the repeated attacks of pit bulls "accidentally" going off. Clearly, pit bulls are exceedingly capable of causing a horrific death. Poor, poor, child.
Yet, owners of vicious dogs are good with taking the chance. Maddening.

It was mostly a comment about people who keep these animals around young children and then have the nerve to act surprised when something like this happens.
I don't blame the dogs. I blame the single Mothers that don't train them.
70-80 million dogs in the US. We have 4 guns for every dog. Not sure why we still have pitbulls.
The owners are a big part of the problem, but you can't discount the sheer strength of the dogs. There's no question that pitbulls are capable of being great dogs. They can be very loving, intensely loyal companions.
The problem is that they can be intensely loyal companions. Anything they perceive to be a threat to their owner has the potential to set them off. And once they go into attack mode it's game over.
If a beagle or a cocker spaniel loses his freaking mind and goes apeshit, he might be able to break the skin on your ankle. If a pitbull or, in this case, multiple pitbulls go nuts, a mortician has to use all of his skills to make your face presentable at the viewing.
No doubt. Pitbulls are serious animals and should be treated as such. The problem is that they've been adopted as the official dog of the ghetto and most of their owners shouldn't be allowed to own pets.
People with pitbulls in there homes are much more likely to die from a pitbull attack in the homes than people who don't.
Plenty of other breeds have the capability of causing great harm, too. For example, Chows are basically dog-bears, and are seriously different from your normal "dog" in terms of attitude and attack propensity.
Growing up, my neighbor had a Chow Chow. It was basically a sociopath.
Dog breeds in terms of craziness, in my experience:
Cocker Spaniels
Dalmatians
Rottweilers
Chow Chows
I've known about 5 Pit Bulls in my life. Most of them were great with people, but weren't great with other dogs. That's how they were bred, after all.
My brothers friend had a red nosed, 65 pound Pit named Dino. He was a very nice dog. He was also a beast. He could shred a block of wood into sawdust. He was pretty long and thin but had a lot of muscle. He was fast. If Dino wanted to F* you up, I don't see how the average guy could stop him.
Another was my brothers' friends' Pit Bull named Chubbs. He was an 85 pound tank. His head and neck was a ball of muscle. Chubbs was very nice. He wasn't trained well and would jump on people and wasn't great on the leash. I walked him once and he was strong as a bull. I knew if he ran that I couldn't stop him. There's no way I could hold him back.
I walked him around a nice suburban neighborhood and people looked flat out scared of him. If there was a group of people, I'd cross the street to avoid them. Chubbs wouldn't hurt a fly, though.
Ha!
He was great with kids. I'm not arguing that some Pit Bulls would maul a kid. Most of that is because of their ghetto owners.
Seriously. Who would it impact if we just said, "OK...all pitbulls need to be fixed immediately so we can put an end to the species." All the ones living with their crazy owners can still live, but that's it. Who does that harm? These are the #1 predator of man.
And to pretend there's not something genetically in them that causes this to happen all the time is horse shit. Daschunds aren't taught to burrow, yet they do it. It's just in them. Just like ripping apart 9 year olds is in pit bulls.

LOL! I have four Cockaliers!
(Cocker Spaniel x King Cavalier Spaniel).
They hate EVERYTHING that isn't part of our family. Other people. Other dogs. Cats. Squirrels. Birds. Wind. Rain. Thunder. Airplanes. Cars. Trucks. Children on hoverboards. The song changing on the radio. Shadows. Dust. Clouds. etc.
If there's something to bark at, or even if there isn't, they'll bark.
I don't think they'd actually bite anyone though. All bark no bite.
Pitt bulls are nowhere near the #1 predator of man. The most dangerous animal to humans on this planet is the mosquito.
I don't know how you live with all that barking. At least you won't have to worry about someone breaking int o your home.
There are millions of Pit Bulls in America. How many maul 9 year olds?
And Dachsunds suck. They aren't even dogs, really. We should fix all of them and let THEM go extinct

Better question...how many 9 year olds that get mauled by dogs are mailed by something OTHER than a pitbull?
I'm sure if I had one I'd love it. But I wouldn't be delusional about the fact that I own a ticking time bomb.
When simply leaving a certain type of dog with a kid is "irresponsible behavior", that breed needs to go.
Good question. My Border Collie mix will bite you. If you walk in my house if I don't call him off, you will leave. He might send you to the ER, He will not send you to the morgue.
Excellent point. And for that reason I think it's equally irresponsible for people to keep malaria-infected mosquitoes as pets, especially if they have small children in the house.
Pit bulls aren't a ticking time bomb when raised by a sane owner. Not even close.
Do these people look insane to you?
