“Animal control officials say the dog is a Pit Bull. The Harris County Sheriff’s Office report has it listed as a Labrador retriever mix, with further specification.”

I trust animal control over the police in determining breed as I trust the police over animal control to tell me what is a felony and what is a misdemeanor.

See, even a LAB can turn feral when it has some PB in its bloodline .

I read about this first on MSN, my default browser. When I first saw the headline and before I clicked on the article, I thought, “Here we go again, another pitbull attack.” MSN said “labrador mix” as the breed responsible. So that was a surprise.

Only upon coming here did I see it was a pitbull. It is interesting how the press continues to cover up for these dangerous animals.

Some of our friends have a pit. They adopted it from the pound, where it was listed as a “lab mix”. It is clearly a pit. Pounds are filing up with pits, because so many people are dumping them. I don’t know of any homeowners insurance companies that will issue a policy if you own a pit. So apparently some pounds are intentionally misidentifying pits as other breeds to get them adopted.
