A bull mastiff is not a pit bull. A bull mastiff us a criss between a bI’ll dig and a mastiff.
The problem here is the owner and possibly the breeder and whoever of the two was responsible shoukd be severely punished.
The fact is mastiff and pit bulls CAN be very loving pets. They can also be very dangerous destructive monsters. It’s all on the breeding and training. And SOME breeds, like these two, need an experienced handler and owner and responsible breeder. All of which was apparently lacking here.
If these dogs were being used for fighting, everything rises to an even greater level of culpability and people engaged in THAT activity are vicious subhuman who shoukd be horsewhipped.
I see “bull mastiff” being referred to by the name “Presa Canario”, which is essentially a giant pit bull.
A problem is a bull dog is a pit bull, to include the “Old White Southern” or “American Bulldog. And there are several different breeds of Mastiffs.
Please define your terms and breeds when giving examples or making comparisons. It is most useful for clarity. Thank you.
