Rottweiler are not even close to pits in terms of being dangerous

From the website: Many U.S. courts have declared pit bulls as "lethal weapons."

We need common sense pit bull control.

I thought dogo was an internet slang, not a genus

Dogsbite.org is sensationalist garbage. They don't know a thing about canine behavior and they label every muscular short haired breed a Pit Bull

Is there records of how many pitbulls there are compared to other breeds? I cant find numbers anywhere but I feel like shelters are always full of pitbull mixes.

This is a 52% increase since the government's last study in this area, which stated two decades ago, "there appears to be a breed-specific problem with fatalities." - Breeds of Dogs Involved in Fatal Human Attacks in the United States Between 1979 and 1998

20 year old research ayy

The information seemed somewhat bias. They do list sources tho

Maybe they just look that way to the untrained eye.

My argument would be is too many dickwads that owned them intentionally made them aggressive. Which people do with pittbulls too. Another problem with Pitts is they are energetic dogs and you need to get them to expend that energy. Walks likely ain't enough you gotta play with em

This. Most pit bull sympathisers will shift the blame to them though

Tell me you never owned a Rottweiler without telling me you never owned a Rottweiler. They are among the strongest breeds out there, far stronger than any bull breed that I owned or handled. Like Pit Bulls, Rottweilers aren't for the inexperienced dog owners or idiots.

Rottys are big dogs, and they can be protective, but at least they generally make it clear when they don't like you before anything happens. Their bark and especially their growl is intimidating. I grew up with Dobermans, the thinner and far more high-strung version of a Rottweiler, and they're pretty serious business too, we had to put one of them down after he bit me, but at least that was just one snap and not a mauling. I wouldn't recommend dog breeds like that to the vast majority of the population, they are strong and high-energy, they need lots of space to run around and wear themselves out on a daily basis. I'll never own a dog like that, I'm honestly rather uncomfortable around large, aggressive dogs after my childhood experiences.

Dogo is not a genus, all dogs are of the genus Canis.

Pit Bulls can be very loving and caring when raised properly.

Wolf hybrids are probably the most dangerous since you can't really train the wolf out of them, so to speak. They're probably alot more rare than the other breeds though.

My cousin recently rescued a pit bull from a shelter. He has 4 young children

Yeah, especially since there have been crackdowns on wolf hybrids for decades. You need to basically own a wildlife refuge to own them in most states.

just listen to the difference of a husky and wolf hybrid eating. you don't want anything near that wolf's mouth. And the body language too. You can't tell at all what the wolf is thinking, at least based on dog body language, I'm sure someone that knows wolf body language might be able to tell.
