This is why pit bulls should be banned for pets.

The family dogs who mauled two Tennessee toddlers to death Wednesday and left their mother with severe injuries had never been aggressive,

The family had the pets, Cheech and Mia, for more than eight years without a violent incident, Canfield said.


So you guys who are pro-pitbulls can spare your bullshit that It’S HoW theY wEre raiSeD. Their natural instinct is to be violent.

Gratefully, these dogs have been euthanized. But the mistake was these people picking up these savage animals to begin with. Leave them in the wild and stop breeding them for pets, and no euthanatizing would be needed.

Any animal has this risk, people too.
My dog is a pitbull and I have no reservations about him.
Only difference between a pitbull and every other dog is that the pitbull is the dog of choice for people of low social economic means and every pitbull attack makes the news.

Pitbulls are not more likely to injure than others dog breeds. They're in line with other breeds when you segment the data appropriately.

German Shepherds are just as dangerous

Yeah basically any big dog with a square head is called a pitbull these days.

Other dogs don't have locking jaws.
Pits don't attack more, but they deff do way more damage when they do.

No dogs have locking jaws.

Pitbulls are just not the rabid killers people think they are.
There is eighteen MILLION pitbulls in America and 16 dog related fatalities per year..
And 60% of dogs assumed to be pitbulls have no pitbull DNA.

Is it semi automatic pit bull?

There about 22 people killed by cows and 710 horse riding deaths a year, at least 100 people die by falling trees and related landscaping jobs. 0 thread topics

Then there are 30-50 dog related deaths a year and we have soy Karens raging like it's a National emergency. It's a media induced bait "be concerned about this current issue" because it gets more views and likes the people tripping over random objects around the house.

Pitbulls are just like any other dog, or person for that matter. If they are trained and treated properly, behavioral problems like aggression won't be an issue.

Horrific story though

pitbulls were bred to fight

it doesn't matter how "well you train them" even a well trained pitbull can eventually turn on its family there are several documented cases of this

pitbulls should have never been bred in the first place

yeah, working terrier breeds are insane. i have one, but not a pit. he's been loved, trained, and cared for, for over a decade, but if he sees a squirrel/opossum in the backyard, it's game time baby. it's a switch that happens

if most owners had control of their dog on a proper leash instead of letting them roam free, a lot of these deaths could be preventable.

i don't know how many times i see random dogs roaming around unleashed
