The problem with this statement is that it implies that ALL Golden Retriever Owners and All Irish Setter Owners, all train their dogs properly.
Yes Virginia, there is such a thing has an unstable Breed of K9.
We've had our dog for a little over a year now and she has been attacked 4 times. All Pit-bulls. And every Pit owner looked at me and declared that their dog has never done that before.
Well perhaps they didn't, but they have now.
Go look in the nearest SPCA Kennel. They are filled mostly with Pit-bulls who's previous owners didn't understand what they were getting into. I feel pitty for those dogs having to live that way.
All due to the Vanity of Humanity. Me and my walking set of "Power Jaws". Be Afraid. Be very Afraid.
*sigh*
Pitbull threads always go south quick. For the record, I’ve never owned one, but I’ve been attacked by two. I have scars on my arms to prove it.
That being said, I have a border collie whose ear was nocked pretty good by a Pembroke Welsh Corgi. I also own a dachshund who’s more apt to bite than any dog I’ve owned. Small dogs, while not maiming, can leave a mark.
Pitbulls are a special breed that require a highly mature owner who is 100% committed to caring for and training that animal. They are the definition of feral. Sadly, an overwhelming majority of pit owners are in way over their heads. They are absolutely a bully breed, but like rotties and dobies, they can be tame and very loving with the right owner.
