Your BS statistics mean nothing, I have been around dogs all my life, never ever had a problem. And then one day while working, suddenly attacked by two vicious Pit Bulls, how do you account for that. It could have been any breed, but it wasn't, they were Pit Bulls. I believe I have more right than most to comment, considering the attack left me permanently injured and I have witnessed first hand the ferocity of the animal while attacking. The only person who sound like retards are Idiots like you who defend them in the first place. Why are Pitbull lovers so stereotypically rigid, delusional and desperate to find some ridiculous statistic or research done by groups with a vested interest. It's unfortunate that racism and prejudice is your only argument here for why the attack rate went up Statistics can be manipulated very easily, and a lot of dog attacks aren't reported. And why would I want to read a book on the animal, i dont like them, Period.
Go read my post on the first page. I understand why you feel the way you do about pitbulls. Anyone who went through what you did is going to have a pretty strong opinion on the bred responsible for the attack. I feel sorry for what happened to you. I hope you go after the dogs owners.
My brother was just attacked by a GSD and suffered 30 stitches, 4 broken fingers and a torn acl. The woman who owns this dog leaves him chained up in the backyard all day and has never socialized him or introduced him to strangers. My brother was called over to join a party and the dog attacked thinking he was an intruder.
Dog attacks like what happened to you are rare and the horror you experienced has and is duplicated by many different types of breeds. It's not a pitbull thing, it's a irresponsible owner thing.
Pitbulls are not the most aggressive dog breed. That is a fact, not a manipulated statstic.
Like any other powerful breed, when a rouge animal does attack, the result is often very serious.
The op was not being racist, imo. He is correct about lower class and minatory populations gravitating towards the pitbull over the last decade. Ironically, the pitbulls strength and tenacity is it's biggest downfall. Drug dealers, insecure toughguys and thugs purchase them and promote bad behavior from the animals. It's a shame, because pitbulls make great police dogs.
Whats my point? You're not wrong to have a strong opinion on the particular dogs that attacked you. They were, In fact, super aggressive and dangerous pitbulls. All I'm saying is this: maybe the dogs you came across and many other examples of this breed owned by people who promote aggressive behavior are isolated examples of a breed that is not programed towards violence against humans.
