"The more living beings to whom a pit bull is exposed, or the more pit bulls are part of the scenario, the higher the odds that one or more living beings will be killed or injured."
You mean “Dogs of PIECE” ?
Hey Chet99.
Interesting article. I dont recall pits when growing up, but sure see a lot now. They should be dealt with as any dangerous animal; if you keep them, full liability for any damage they cause.
A friend’s neighbor let his pit run loose and it came into my friend’s yard and killed her miniature poodle. The dog had been reported as a threat to people and animals in the past.
What an absolute pile of frigging bullshit!!!
Who is this organization?
What is their history?
How did they come to make such blanket statements?
Where did they get their data?
What is their methodology?
What have they got against pit bulls?
AND WHAT HAVE YOU GOT AGAINST PITS?
I’ve owned multiple pit bulls (American Staffordshire Terriers), and they’ve been the most gentle,loving and devoted dogs.
ANY dog can be dangerous - it’s all in how they are raised and treated.
Dipshit websites like this are the reason the bread gets a bad name. Please Stop posting unsubstantiated crap like this!
Last week, the wife and I decided to stop at our county animal shelter to get a “cat fix”. (Since I’ve developed an allergic reaction to them, we can’t own one.)
On a whim, we decided to tour the dogs, about 50 in all. Two cowering mixed-breed Chihuahuas, one mixed breed Labrador, a Blue Tick, and a doddering Lhasa Apso all had “Adopted - Awaiting Spay/Neuter” on their cages.
The rest were Pit Bulls, or look-alikes, the majority of them with “whack Job” personalities - viciously snarling, biting at the cage as we passed by, incessant barking, depressed and listless, etc.
Why? All the pure breed and easily adoptable animals are snatched up by the “pet rescue” groups, who charge healthy “adoption” fees - $107 for a dog or cat, for example. The County (read taxpayer) is left to deal with the rest. “If you want a nice animal, go to petharbor.com and pay the price”, suggested a fellow visitor. “They scoop up all the good ones.” (The County charges $5 per animal.)
Another sad statistic: 100% of pit bulls who bite are owned by idiots.
There’s a reason they were long known as the nanny breed; modern-day cretins who have no business owning animals are totally responsible for this sad situation, IMHO.
Weaponized animals.
Most pit owners I see are near-ghetto dweller pieces of shiite. Just watch the Animals walking the dog.
Use NIMBY laws to protect your family.
Head shot to take ‘em down.
I played pitbull roulette while walking my 40# foxhound mix on a remote stretch of a bike path. We were walking down a steep and curving hill. About half way down I saw a medium sized woman looking at us and she had a death grip on the leash of a large pit pull. She looked terrified. We walked further down the hill and on the other side of the path is a man (probably her husband) with a tight grip on a larger pitbull. This was a bad situation and I probably should have turned around but didnt. I had a tight grip on my dog’s leash because she sometimes would lunge at other dogs and hoped that she wasnt stupid enough to start anything (doubtful). We made it through the pitbull gauntlet unharmed but I will never forget the look on that woman’s face.
Thanks for posting.
