I believe pit bulls are most accurately characterized as a group of breeds, not as a breed as such. And it appears dogs outside this group are very often classified as pit bulls when they’re involved in a severe incident.
IOW, I suspect the numbers are overstated for “pit bulls.”
Not particularly a defender of pit bulls, just trying to keep the record straight.
Fair enough. Pit Bulls are a subset of the Bulldog family and bred for their tenacity. I too would like to see the data and how the dog was classified and by whom.
