A pit bull-bulldog mix... attacked its own family of four Monday, sending three people to the hospital to be treated for their wounds.
One adult and two teens, ages 16 and 13, were taken to the hospital to be treated
...
Family identified the animal to police as a pit bull. Animal control called it a pit bull-American bulldog mix.
...
Another adult in the home also was attacked, but was not taken to a hospital, he said. The dog is now in the custody of the St. Louis County Health Department...
Florissant had an ordinance banning pit bulls, but the City Council voted last year to end the ban.

It’s the only antidote for the pitbull apologists cabal on FR
Why? I just caught a dog fish!
The art of selective breeding of animals weeds out traits that are undesirable. At some point no matter where you get your particular animal of a certain breed it will at some point exhibit these traits. You breed for nothing but a fighting killer trait eventually you will get it. I think pits are there. Own them at your own risk, do not subject those around you to the danger and don’t crossbreed them. If it is agressive and someone shoots it, you should have your azz thrown in jail. You endangered the public. MO
Odd, I found it right next to “gullible”.
Appreciating the Gay literature available, might I ask if pit bulls are born abnormal, or is it environment?
When I saw the title, I decided to guess the breed. I figured golden retriever--or maybe Dalmatian.
Thank you for posting this.
I am going to have to look at some figures, but this sounds unusual, even for PBType dogs.
One dog attacking 4 members of its own household and damaging 3 persons this badly is extreme, even for the damages, mauling, and death to which we are becoming (too)fast accustomed.
It almost sounds like the behavior of a rabid dog.
Another death. Today.

Death to all pit bulls.
was walking down the street a couple days ago and from behind a building came a scrawny kid and a pit bull around the corner- walking towards me- about feet away- the stinkin dog lunged at me and the kid had all he could do to hold onto the freakin thing- Had he not cinched up on the leash as soon as he saw me, the dog very likely would have gotten free and been at my throat-
Very unnerving to say the least!
>> Animal control called it a pit bull-American bulldog mix
There’s at least one bad mutation of American pits, and the lines must be sterilized.
[[Saw the title. I didn’t even have to read the article to know the breed.]]
Same here- suspected it was pitbull immediately-
That’s not necessary. But an honest effort to control the problematic line would be good.
Do any pitbull owners also posses a full set of teeth? College diploma? Non-obese wife?
Please show me 1 story for each pitbull story about a driving death and I will concede.
I won’t disagree that something needs to be done about the breeders and stupid owners, but the emotional reactionism against a breed which, in MOST ALL CASES, a person against pitbulls having never owned or known one is no different than the emotional reactionism of the left against guns after every single GD shooting.
Those 2 reasons are why I deride these stories and those who heap on the anti-pitbull bandwagon: You all sound like a bunch of lefties crying about how dangerous an AR15 is to the American youth.
Yes, and guns are also dangerous and should be banned, just like pitbulls.
BS.
Gotta love the logic & emotionalism regurgitated from the left here at FR.
Bookmark for later.
I noted that the “bulldog” mix was an American bulldog rather than the familiar English bulldog.
I have only limited info on the American bulldog breed, but to me they look almost indistinguishable from pit bulls.
Can anyone enlighten me on this point?
English bulls, on the other hand, are about the sweetest-natured canines on God’s green Earth.
Add me to the cabal...
