How many times have I read/heard this comment? . . Too many!
Knew a couple who had something similar happen - fortunately the husband was home. They raised the pit bull from a pup and spouted the usual it’s-the-owner-not-the-breed crap. The dog attacked the wife; the husband shot it. Even in death, the dog’s jaws remained clamped to the woman’s arm and the fire dept. had to pry the dog’s jaws apart.
Pit bulls are ticking time bombs.
