And you're right about the other part. Since they did decide to have pits they shouldn't have left the baby alone near them. Dumb fricks.
Sad regardless.

Those same "parents" raised the dog too, can you not see where the responsibility should fall?

Tell me, if there are 100 stories of people getting killed by dogs, how many of that 100 would involve Pits?
Of that number, how many of their owners would say that they were good dogs who never showed any signs of aggression before at all?

Actually, some people pay extra for that.

85
This question holds no water for me.. this is purely opinion from top to bottom
A better question would be how many out of those 85 dogs were raised by responsible, well educated dog owners, and my answer for that would probably be about 5-10

How many of these cases could've been avoided by either:
A. Not owning a pit bull
B. Monitoring your child around neighbors pitbulls
I don't get why so many people find it hard to understand that these parents had a choice. Are there aggressive pitbulls, absolutely; but that doesn't excuse the mentality that we should exterminate an entire breed.
FWIW, I own a lab. I'm not trying to stir shite up, just wish some posters would be a little more practical. But go ahead a downvote and shoot all the pitbulls if it makes you feel better.

I told this story on here before, but I had a guy come out to do a yearly inspection on my A/C and he started talking about his dogs. I am paraphrasing because I don't remember the exact words used, but it went similar to this.
"I have two pitbulls. People think they are mean dogs, but mine wouldn't hurt a fly. Well, unless they think someone is messing with me, my girlfriend and my little girl. My little girl, she is 8 months old. If I lay her on the floor, my dogs will come sleep next to her. They are really probably one of the best dogs to own, people just think they are dangerous, but the dangerous ones are that way only because people make them like that, but that happens with any type of dog".
My first thought was "this ignorant mother fricker. What about when his little girl is about 15-18 months old and start grabbing on things and pulling herself up and start walking? What if one of those dogs are around her and she gets a good grip on one of them are pokes at one near their eyes or something? All it takes is for that dog to snap one time". Part of the problem is that people think they are "good dogs", but the problem is... These fricking dogs are so strong that it has to snap only one time.. For it to do some violent shite.

I'm not sure if you have kids or not, but for the sake of discussion...let's say you have a 3 year old girl. How comfortable would you feel if your neighbor had 3 pitbulls that they kept in their backyard? Would it worry you at all? Would you ever let your girl go play in YOUR backyard by herself...even if she was maybe 5 or 6?

A person is an unfit parent leaving a three month old with three dogs of any breed, let alone pit bulls.
Disclosure - I own a german shepherd and would never leave him around kids / young teenagers unsupervised.

I wouldn't mind pit bulls, but they just scream trashiness now. Seems like every insecure inbred has to have one to make themselves feel tough and cool

My in-laws took in a (at the time) very young abandon mutt puppy they found alone near their house. As it turns out, now that it's grown you can tell the dog clearly is a pit-bull mix. Now it stays outside on their farm with other dogs and for the most part is a friendly dog. However, unlike any of the other 3 outside dogs they have, it will 2-3 times a week just randomly try to get aggressive with the other dogs. Generally their German Shepard puts and end to that shite quickly, but it's just a bit "odd" the pit mix is the only one that does that. I worry about my child being around it. Not because it has shown a proclivity to attack humans, but because much more so than the other dogs I'm worried my young child might innocently try to to play with the dog leading it to unexpectedly snap

A. Not owning a pit bull
quote:Much harder to near-impossible. What about people with pitbulls in public? What am I supposed to be able to do to "avoid" risk...other than simply picking up and leaving anytime I see one? Those beasts are coiled springs whether you want to admit it or not. The potential for damage is high. An offleash poodle is an annoyance. A LEASHED pitbull is still a threat.
