People need to stop saying "its not the dog its the owner"...Yes, some people can raise a dog to be meaner or kinder, but that doesn't change the fact that its still an animal with its own instincts, and this particular breed is an instinctual attacker. I'm not saying ban them, but get one at your own risk and don't keep spreading that "its how you raise them" stuff....because you can raise them to be nice and a family dog but the moment it gets nervous or something sets it off its going to attack and forget all the "nice teachings" you gave it..Kinda like Chimps, and they're even more human like than a dog. People have owned them, they raise them, for the most part the chimps are usually fine with their owner and are able to live just fine...until something sets it off and its animal instinctive side kicks in. Like that one 911 call from a woman who owned a chimp that got scared and ripped the face off of her friend. Not even the owner could calm it down and even she knew the only way to stop it was to kill it. You could slap a scientific study over this agreeing with you, and people would still defend the breed saying the same tired shit as usual, animal fanatics are a detriment. Unfortunately for this argument, the science doesn't always agree with you. A study of dog bite related fatalities from 2000-2009 did not find breed to be a major factor: https://avmajournals.avma.org/doi/abs/10.2460/javma.243.12.1726 "Pit bull" isn't even a breed, so when you talk about them being a dangerous breed, are you referring to an American pit bull terrier, American Staffordshire terrier, a Staffordshire bull terrier? If you wanna talk scientific accuracy, you need to be specific. On top of that, "pit bulls" as we know them are bred specifically against biting humans, as that's not considered a good trait when be used as a fighting dog. This does lead to a tendency toward aggression with other dogs though https://pets.webmd.com/dogs/features/pit-bulls-safety --- A hunter is a hunter...even in a dream <cite>MarqueeSeries posted [p:931938833] in Another pi...
