Well, even experts misidentify dogs all the time, which is the main reason I am against BSL. They are not machines with exact replication and thus ID.

Another thing, I just cannot see any pit bull being anywhere close to 130. Not even fat. The dog looks too short to be beyond the proper range, so I guess it is not really a Pressa or Cane, but no way should a PB ever be that heavy. People need to stop assigning “huge” status to every vicious dog. Many are really only medium.

So sad for that family and poor little girl.

A 130-pound American Pit Bull Terrier?

I'm laughing.

Maybe an American Bully Terrier, or a Pit Bull mix with something like a Bullmastiff, but not a pure bred American Pit Bull Terrier.

Somewhere, an English Staffordshire Terrier will get a bad rap for this, even though the males average in the low 30 pounds, and they never hit 40 pounds.

Ah, the Staffie: "because of their natural fondness for people, most Staffords are temperamentally ill-suited for guard or attack-dog training."

Yet we have American Pit Bull owners calling their dogs Staffordshire Terriers to get around Pit Bull bans, giving the Staffie a bad name.
