Well, I would disagree. I have seen to many dogs from the pit that are dead or nearly dead and have to be put down to believe this article.
People who breed dogs to fight in a pit, have zero concern over their dogs.
There is great time put in training these dogs, like breaking the legs of cats and throwing them in the pits, or puppies or other small dogs.
The stakes are high and there is much money to be made if the other dog dies.
I’m not defending dog fighting, just pointing out that historically the dogs were bred to do whatever they were trained to do, not to kill everything in sight. They’re extremely malleable.
Obviously because of their historical function, fighting dogs are better equipped to cause damage than other breeds, so when redirected aggression lands on a human, the results are devastating. That being said, it doesn’t mean that every time a pit bull attacks it ‘just snapped’, anymore than a chihuahua can ‘snap’.
