Yeah the people on this comment section are all a bunch of cucks. It’s not the dog it’s the owner. I’ve owned several pit bulls and they’re some of the most gentle dogs I’ve ever need around - because they got the right training and care. Ironically I was attacked by two dog when I was younger a chihuahua and a golden retriever but you’ll never see that in the media because it doesn’t fit in their box.

I definitely understand the sentiment you're carrying. I've met many very sweet and gentle pits.

Almost every single time I am with one however, I am aware that if this dog decided to turn on me I would have a really hard time stopping it. They are strong and powerful and unfortunately the stats show they are overwhelmingly responsible for this type of attack. It's just sad.

They are no where as strong as larger breeds. It’s media hype still to this day that’s a fact

You’re actually delusional it’s hilarious. If a golden retriever bites me, I can probably take it. A pit bull? No fuckin way they are aggressive and will continue attacking. That’s just nature. Not the dogs fault, but no one should own them. Or if they do, they should never be allowed off leash or to be in the presence of strangers. You just never know.

I actually do feel bad now they this article about a child being attacked has people coming at a simple comment with garbage. But you calling me delusional for what I said then saying every pitbull is a killer and shouldn’t be a pet is far more delusional. I suppose every military aged male is a killer too right? Why not? Because they’re individuals with their own thoughts and personalities and certainly not every soldier has killed someone.

Statistically more bites and nips come from goldens, but that’s only because they are a more popular breed then most for people with kids. However, ratio wise, when talking about violent attacks-that record belongs to pit bulls, by a long shot

I’ve been bit by a golden (and a labradoodle) before. They bite but they release. They don’t go for the kill like bully breeds.

Yeah exactly. Same thing after being nipped by my friend’s German shepherd as a kid. The dog released right away. I think some people on here who think it’s just the ‘media’ that try and make out pit bulls bad should venture over to that sub Reddit ‘ban pit bulls’ and see the damage they can do. Doesn’t matter whether they come from a good or bad home.

The only dog I’ve ever been attacked by are Boston Terriers, multiples that were owned in succession by a little old lady. Therefore, anecdotally, no one should own Boston Terriers. No one is blaming the child for a thing that a dog did, or things that the owner should’ve or shouldn’t have done. The pearl clutching pit bulls are bad crybabies on here need to shut the fuck up, most of you couldn’t tell a pittie from an American Bulldog, from a Doberman. It’s all a Pit Bull if it has short hair and bit someone.
