Okay - show me the links to the 5 stories....current to “this week.”
Next, Collies WILL bite, but you hear less of these stories because they tend to be a rural dog and if they get inappropriately aggressive, they get shot by the dog owner or the farmer next door (real men, not some patsey metrosexual who has to wait on Animal Control).
Finally, I don’t care. The real story is the owners. When I was a kid, the “bad breed” was German Shepherds. There was a family on the road (rural area) that had 2 and the neighborhood was on freak-out every time Banjo and Bozo (don’t ask) got out of the fenced in yard, though they never ever hurt anything. Today? Those dogs are mainstream. As soon as the money made off Pit fighting disappears, Pit Bulls will also cease to be the terrorist dog of the day and we can get back to the real “bad dogs”..that taco bell mutt and cocker spanials.
Do a simple search here on FR.
Of course, collies bite. All dogs will bite something in their lifetimes.
But all dogs don’t attack, maul and kill children and/or adults. I have worked at an animal shelter and have seen many mistreated animals who did not attack people. In fact, most of them, including large dogs like Shepherds and Collies, will cower in front of humans.
Pits are different. You can convince yourself otherwise all you want. You will not convince me. There are too many stories of Pits who were treated well who turned on their owners or neighbors.
