How come nobody ever wants to talk about all the golden retreiver attacks that happen in this country?
I just checked dog attacks on google
a few entries....rotts, shepherds, mongrels and yes a pitbull attack in Indianapolis
there was the boy samurai story saving his shepherd-pit mix from the lion or whatever
Chet only posts pitbull attacks..other dog attacks don’t measure up
no doubt some pits will bite yer ass and can kill old folks and children but so can quite a few other breeds
given who often owns them (gangsta dog fighters and cracker dog fighters) and that now they are a problem in urban areas when before back when blacks were afraid of dogs more so...yes call me racist but Bull Conner memories linger trust me....it was more rare.
I do think the terrier in pits make them more dicey...I will give Chet that....I do not own one but I do own a Bulldog Matiff mix called a Scott Southern Bulldog...folks would love to fight them too I fear* and I’ve owned a dozen large guard breeds....they are all dangerous potentially...and if Chet gets his way even if unintended they will all be banned except for police and museums or forced nut cutting...so I oppose Selective Breed bans...but on the other hand...dense urban areas might have a need to shoot ghetto pits unleashed nor rural area the same if livestock killed though Chet’s postings notwithstanding pits are more likely to kill other pets
* pits used for fighting tend to be smallish and rangy with more stamina...these squatty, big headed fat monsters are just for show
** I like pits well enough but I was hesitant with small children and cats...although I know some that do fine...my wife laid down the love law....easy choice...sides our Scott “Bedford”...named after guess who..lol..is a peach...a big black one
*** I’m over at Winstead Hill park the other day walking said Bully and a dude in a volvo gets out with 4 peekapoos all off leash hopping around...I had my boy on a lead and he was heeling great for his first real atempt...incredible really but I though what if it was some farmboy with his pit off leash...then what insatead of me...that peek owner woulda had a sad day and it woulda been his irresponsibilty too?
