No, but you can sure blame people who insist on having those "peace-loving" dogs around.

We have 4 dogs and 4 cats, so it's not something against animals that I have. It's breeds that have been BRED to kill. People can yap on all they want, but pit bulls should be outlawed!

That poor baby. And the mama. She'll grieve for her child until the day she dies. And feel heavy guilt, because she didn't watch her child like she should have.

I know one thing, it wouldn't have taken me TWO HOURS to report my little one as missing. I had one of my own toddlers disappear one time. He'd gone behind the dryer to go to sleep (it was pulled out from the wall due to remodeling). I guarantee you I learned my lesson after that. I made sure I knew where my kids were at all times, even when they were in the HOUSE!

It can't be blamed on an animal who knows no more then the child. It is the owner's fault and the mother of the child for letting her three year old run around unattended a six year old can not be responsible for a three year old. My three year old and six month old have been raised with a pit bull, rotweiller and three other large dogs. Not one of the dogs has even growled at one of my kids. My pitt is pertective of my kids which makes me feel comfortable in my neighborhood.

That is false.

Ah yes, and then Rots, Shepherds, Dobermans.

How about pit owners should be treated no different than any other dog owner?

Technically, Rotties are a working dog from germany..they were used with farm animals. They are so easy to train ..ie fun little tricks. They need jobs..such as fun tricks. Not training a rottie can cause problems, just like any dog. There is nothing like having a little brat dog that I don't know jump all over me and ruin my clothes, or getting mud all over me because the owner never learned how to say "no".

"...but pitbulls should be outlawed..."

This wasn't a pitbull. You might as well have said "all mutts should be outlawed".

What will you say when all the pitbulls are dead and you still hear stories like this?
