“When the previous owner has the 2 year old male pitbull muzzled when he’s given up, I would think that’s a red flag for unadoptable dog.”

Not so. Just because a dog has bitten people in the past, doesn’t necessarily make it unadoptable. I’ve known 2 people who have taken in dogs labeled as biters, even one that had been adopted and returned because it bit the new owner, and it turned into a nice dog with time.

Gambling types, aren't they? Hope they don't have kids.

I’m referring to a pitbull that has bitten before. It would be a red flag for me.

Yeah, let's not let reality interfere with the futile taming of vicious animals at the expense of our children.

That interesting bit of information right there bestows a huge liability on someone who would do so.
