After all, German shepherds killed more people than any other dog in the late 1970s, when many people favored the breed for its fierce reputation. Then, for two years, it was Great Danes. Rottweilers topped the list of killer dogs through most of the '90s, according to a study by the Centers for Disease Control. Now it's pit bulls.

The dogs responsible for the bulk of the homicides are pit bulls and Rottweilers

I don't find it funny to laugh about children's injuries, They are serious, some have died in the result being attacked. When you have children somedays, You make a choice who's side you on, Your dog or your child. :whistle:

Those are good sites cheri.......however, I dont believe anyone was saying that pit bulls dont attack, and arent the most dangerous....I just wish more people would agree that it is the blood line and the trainers, who make a dog bad..............what you quoted about german shepards is what banjo was saying...basically every dog will have their time in the media

Well, Believe what you want Banjo, pictures don't lie, and injuries don't lie either. Those are real evidences. You really think the media would choose a dog that would be most frighten in people's eyes and pick on pitbulls/rottweilers/dobermans?? I think not. My son almost got attack by a pitbull for no reason and you telling me oh it's the owner's fault. He was a very good pet owner I know him personally. You know well enough that dogs like those snap for no reason at all. What about the time Annie's puppy got attack? on her own property? So, it's all the owner's fault huh? What a joke.

Believe?

These are the facts I stated in the previous posting. I never, never said that pit bulls were responsible for a lot of bites.

I do believe that one has to be pretty stupid to believe that a certain breed cannot attack.

It's likely that the pit bull you're speaking of came from a bad breeding ground. The owner may had done his best. The problem with a lot of pit bulls are that they are bred outside of the breed. What they do is kill the good ones and keep the violent ones, that's the problem.

They did this with dobermans and german shepherds but it seems to be less of a problem than it used to be because it's the pit bulls that they are after right now. They try to make a menace out of them.

It can be done with any type of dog breed if they wanted to. Once the pit bulls are wiped out, they'll just move on to a different breed. The problem won't go away.

Like it or not, labrador retrievers may as well be the next target by the bad breeders if they wanted to. I don't want this to ever happen because I happen to love that line of breed since I own two labs myself. I'm not worried about my dogs, it's the reputation of the breed that may get smeared like they did with the pit bulls.

Wiping out the pit bulls is not the answer. It's the breeders and irresponsible pet owners that are causing the problems.

My pit bull doesnt act dumb, or agressive. My dog is fairly intelligant, and like ALL dogs can be agressive. It is in their nature, they were all wild animals. And heck a rabbit can be agressive(lmao) but anyhow, i am not saying pit bulls arent bad dogs....i am just saying they are not ALL bad. Tequila is very loving at all times, and very playful. Unless he sees someone in danger. He never even barks, he just follows us around starving for attention.....he is one big baby let me tell you...and its funny too cuzz hes like 140 pounds..................But i do respect everyones point of views, me being a responsible pit bull owner i never leave him unattended(although i truely feel in my heart he would never hurt someone unless they deserve it) and i never leave him with people he does not know alone

These are the facts I stated in the previous posting. I never, never said that pit bulls weren't responsible for a lot of bites. I believe it is overhyped in the media to begin with. They haven't even bothered to point out why this is happening. They are just showing "scary" pictures of dogs and the attacks.

I do believe that one has to be pretty stupid to believe that a certain breed cannot attack.

Anyway, no dogs can just... snap. There are always signs of a dog being aggressive but they are often ignored. It's the same with people, some people think they just snap but they've been showing signs of having problems but nobody bothered to look for any of these signs.

It's likely that the pit bull you're speaking of came from a bad breeding ground. The owner may had done his best. The problem with a lot of pit bulls are that they are bred outside of the breed. What they do is kill the good ones and keep the violent ones, that's the problem.

By the way, I wouldn't be surprised if you wouldn't be able to identify a pit bull if it was standing in front of you. Most people can't.
 
I own a German Shepard who is military trained to attack humans and is now currently attending hearing guide dog school. My German Shepard is very friendly until I shout an attack code and the dog will attack on command. That does not mean my dog is the neighborhood dog mauler featured on the 11 o' clock nights t.v. news. The another thing is that I am an uncle to 13 kids. My dog is fine with the kids and when I take my dog out for a walk.... My dog is only aggressive towards another dogs and my dog can sense who is a good guy or who is an evil guy and the bad guys leave asap because my dog barks, growls and everybody's eyes soon are turned to the bad guys and they don't like it. Too bad for the bad guys. Dogs can sense good and evil. I got family and relatives and friends that own the APBT. They are family pets and the pitbulls would shock you because you are in your mind excepting an aggressive growling dog and not a Friendly Hi kind of dog and luckystar is right..... all dogs come from the wild and can be dangerous if not properly trained. Some are best suited for working dogs or hunting dogs etc..... I think women need to get past the media hype and the anti-dog propagangda and see how awesome, loyal and protective dogs can be for a family no matter what the dog breed is.
