People say that any dog can turn on you and injure or kill you - but near as I can tell, it’s the Pit Bull or Pit Bull Mixes you need to be worried about.

There something wrong with those dogs that no amount of breeding or training can fix.

No, by definition it’s only a bad dog that would turn on you and kill you.

Although known for ankle biting, never heard of a chihuahua killing someone.

Yep, Pitbulls are loving, loyal dogs that would never hurt a fly. Until suddenly, they do. The results are often horrific, and people are baffled how sweet little Deuce could kill his owner, as if these sort of things never happen with Pitbulls.
