I’ve never heard anyone advocate that you can train the basic instinct of a dog out of it like they do for pits.
Show me how to train a herding instinct out of a Border Collie, a retrieving/love of water instinct out of Labs, the rat killing instinct out of Terriers, or a digging instinct out of Dachshunds.
Pits are bred for fighting and killing. Same kind of instinctive behavior as others that can’t have it trained out of them.

I thought that, too.
Only the owner could be upset that a dog that tore someone to pieces like that would be *sad* that it was justifiably killed.

I read this all the way down and opened the link and read all the way down and have concluded these are magical dogs from hell because they just appear out of nowhere, do a smash n grab and die suicide by cop.

I keep telling myself to not go on walks without bear spray. Or a sidearm. But I still go on neighborhood walks unarmed.

Honestly, I believe that pit bulls should be classified as “exotic animals” They should be treated like coyotes, bobcats, lynxes or wolverines--too dangerous to be allowed to be kept as pets.

Fault implies blame. Someone consciously conditioned these dogs to behave this way, to somehow learn this kind of response is an acceptable one and not out of the realm of normalcy.

Define middle of nowhere. Woman rural mail carrier got pulled from her truck and killed, I think woman animal controll officer investigating was killed too.
Woman walking on a dirt road in rural South Carolina had her arms torn off her body.
You would have to build a tiger cage. Don’t forget, theydig.

I thought that was a ‘Super’ stupid and vacuous thing for him to say, considering this woman was virtually torn apart by these dogs.

Where I live there has been a rash of loose dogs, some of whom got out of their houses or yards, some of whom were dumped. I see that reported on local social media. A lot of them are pit bulls. The animal shelters here are at capacity, and a lot of the dogs there are pit bulls. Sounds like a lot of owners are either negligent or are bailing out on their dogs.

It’s not a tired excuse, it’s a fact. Any pet dog that attacks another person is the fault of the owner regardless of breed. Working dogs require supervision from their owners at all times especially when around other people.
