I mean something tells me you’re gonna keep refuting it. But charts/studies like this are all over. Then the headlines come out. And sometimes it’s a labrador or a german shepherd. They’re also on the chart. I don’t think its even close.

I think they have an axe to grind because of tragedies like this one. And this comes on the heels of those little kids in TN getting mauled to death by the family pit bulls two months ago. So yeah people can always split hairs on these studies but this breed is always doing real damage. Other breeds can nip and bite and they do, but mauling is another story.

This is just one quick snapshot. Otherwise tons of similar info on google. If you see one with Pit Bulls not at the top of the list and at the bottom, it’s probably because its for breeds least likely to not kill a human.

Yes I agree. Those are some eye opening statistics. I believe pit bulls make up 7-8% of the total US dog population yet they account for up to 69-70% of fatalities caused by dogs. This owner facing no charges for her dog causing this poor lady’s death is shocking.

Also that shock collar probably agitated that dog more so I’m not sure how that was supposed to act as a deterrent.
