People that don't know and understand specific dog breeds will spew anti-pitbull nonsense. This is because they only read the headlines or know this media generated reputation since humans choose them to train for fighting so often.


This.
Fear sells, pitbull is just the flavor of the day right now. Pseudo scientists aggregated a bunch of breed based behavior statistics, and found Pitbull scored one of the highest for interactions with humans and their own pack. They got lower marks for interactions with third party dogs or packs. Google it.

License and training would go a looong way. Adoption agencies require way more than Breeders in regards to vetting, training, ensuring animals aren't abused. Breeders are awful, part of the root problem with 'bad' dogs and owners.

so, you think that making it harder to own a pitbull (by adding license and training requirements) would be a good thing?

How about cracking down on backyard breeders for any breed to start.

I agree with OP, I think pitbulls should require a license.

You can't own any dangerous animals such as big cats, venomous snakes, wolves, and other such animals without a license. Pitbulls should fall within this category, too.


I think you can own all these things in Ohio without King Dewine signing off.

Three white t shirts and a pit bull and you better be careful.

Go to the ASCPA shelter here and you will be able to pick out a dog out of 300 pit mixes. Dudes sell their puppies at gas stations so they can fight in the bandos for money.

There is a huge socioeconomic phenomenon at work here that is very scientific; biology just isn't the only science involved. Always consider the biopsychosocial spectrum :)

Not for bulls. It would be Auschwitz for them.

I guess if you want to arbitrarily slaughter animals for no good reason; at least export them to China. I hear they beat them with sticks before they slaughter them to make the meat tastier. Opposite of pigs here...pigs will see their death coming, panic, and have a heart attack, and per the FDA a pig that dies by cardiac arrest has to be wasted :/ So they sound proof the areas they scream from.

Station people in houses across America to make sure dogs aren't fucking... wonderful. It make fines for breeding that will get baked into the price of puppies? I will hustle some chihuahuas.

Spoken like a true inferior beta who wakes up at 11am daily and eats cereal for dinner.

Stay in your basement scrawn, you don't know what you're talking about.


listen sweetheart, dont project your miserable life onto me

i know exactly what i am talking about, because i personally had serious trouble with these trash dog breeds

i say it again, pitbulls etc are for scumbags or people with low self esteem and having a dangerous dog empowers them

everyone else just gets a golden retriever

You're so beta that you got dogs you couldn't handle because they don't respect you and you don't know how to be an alpha.

It's fine, but next time just say that. You probably have a chihuahua in a Gucci bag when you fly you fucking pansy.

personally i was going to get a german shepherd puppy but i had just graduated at the time and didn't think working 8 hours a day and leaving a puppy at home alone would be good for the dog so i got a bengal cat instead ^_^

I worked with my dog since puppy to not be aggressive or protective of his food/ treats. Most people never do this training. And boy can it matter

A breed that has the highest capacity to inflict damage when brought up in bad conditions is gonna statistically be the worse offender for attacks.

As a general rule of thumb you treat every dog you don't know as a threat and owners of dogs like these should be held criminally liable.
