National Pit Pull victim site.
My wife has been attacked by a junkyard hound dog, my sister-in-law has been attacked twice by pit bulls down the street and the county in the Roanoke area refuses to do anything about it. It’s been to court, their hands are tied there’s nothing they can do about that dog and it has attacked her two times and they got additional pit bulls on the property now.
My brother-in-law was attacked by a Mastiff that he knew and lived with and the dog was older and just had a freaking mental snap tore him up pretty good on the arm.
I’ve had dogs all my life and I would never trust a pitbull and I’ve been around guard dogs many kind of dogs, pit bulls aren’t even a guard dog they are just an attack dog, and not necessarily on command.
But I’m not letting other breeds off so easy, I’ve seen Border Collies and other shepherding dogs beat the crap out of other dogs for no reason and although I’ve never seen them do that to a human... trying to bust up a fight might cause some issues.

I dreaded the day when the house next door would be rented by people with a pitbull and that just happened. There’s already one down the block that they let out unleashed in the front yard. Ever since I was a kid I’ve had a fear of large mean dogs and nightmares but I usually never thought about it until I started reading online about all the pit attacks and now see them on a regular basis in my neighborhood. sadly I can’t even take walks anymore which my physical therapist highly recommended.
