Ugly azz dog with a bad reputation for a reason. A lot can blamed on the owners but the dog was bred for blood sports a reason.

A site I like to check from time to time is https://www.dogsbite.org. The people who own these dogs are delusional and that applies to a couple of my in-laws who are rescue advocates. Nuts.

I know the “Right to Keep and Bear Animals” is SOMEwhere in the Constitution, hiding there in the emanations and penumbrae of privacy which allowed SCOTUS cover for sanctioning preborn human sacrifice for fifty years.

At least this is how the a$$hats who continually protect and defend Pit Bull type dogs present it.

Though there are many who seem to think keeping wild, non-domesticated dangerois animals around people is just fine, even ones that get off-leash frequently terrorizing neighbors, killing livestock, etc. “Oh, they’s jess dogs.” I don’t see it that way and I shoot strays (dogs and especially cats) on sight on my farm, having been trapped on a roof once by a neighbor’s pit bull until the dog got bored and trotted off. It and several of its pack mates’ remains eventually disappeared into one of the hollers hereabouts.

I value human life more highly than others, i guess.

The typical pit bull owner is a fat redneck dirtball

Maybe in your neck of the woods. In Baltimore and Richmond, almost all of the owners are ghetto thugs.

There’s this cultural thing folks in central Tennessee do which I’ve only ever seen on the occasional news item where a hidden camera catches someone abandoning their pet on a country road somewhere and driving off with the dog running after the car.

Those people should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Farther. I’d rather take THEM out than their pets, but once their once beloved little fur baby family pet has outlived their importance, they somehow think “farmers” will take care of any strays they find.

doesn’t work that way.

But I hate having to be “the grown up” and take care of other people’s problems before they become MY problem.

I’ve been eradicating feral cats like a mission from God for ten years and I’m FINALLY seeing squirrels, raccoons, opossum and other wildlife coming back. Coyotes help with this too, and neighbors help keep the coyote population down (so too, I think, do the large cats that are coming back).

You’re welcome.

Socialization is, IMHO, a big deal. You get a dog that’s been abused all its life, it might have these psychotic tendencies. That’s why rescue dogs are a coin flip. For large dog breeds, it’s like Russian roulette. Even if you’re a bruiser with no neck, a dog doing its Cujo impression can do a lot of damage with its teeth before you get it under control.

Breaking up a dog fight, especially one with a pit bull is dangerous. Considering their purpose and reputation, they should not be in close contacts with other strange dogs . There are many people who own them with no problem. This was a strange dog in a dog fight. Feel sorry for this lady and her family. I personally wouldn’t own one. That goes for breeds like Presa Canarios, Dogo Argentinos, etc. You want a guard dog, get a German Shepherd or Dobermann. Dogs have been a close companion of ours for MILENNIA.
As for the child, BLAME THE PARENTS OR GUARDIANS.

Wow, yet another mere coincidence from the “sweetest dogs” in America.
Appalachia is overrun with pits. A family down the street are professional fosters and they had a “drug guard” dog for a while. Thankfully it is gone. I think it left with the girl when she got booted when she turned 18.
