Well, another dog attack makes the news.As someone said,it's not the breed of dog,it's the owner!!!! So many ppl have opinions about "pitbulls" saying they are this or that,then I ask"how many "pitbulls" have you owned??
 I have been breeding these dogs for 30 years now and I've never had a dog harm a person.Once a stray dog came into my yard,jumped the fence,and I had a little dog on dog aggression.After this happened I put up a 7 foot fence to stop any dog from entering my yard.
 While I must admit I'm not up on this story,it appears a pack of dogs were roaming and a person was attacked. So are the dogs to blame or the owners who allow their dogs to roam.
 I read Bighorn's post and he states the breed as " american bulldog" but the news wont tell you that,if a dog attacks make it a "pitbull" that will keep the ppl's interest!!!
  If the thruth be known,a real fighting dog would never attack a person,human aggression is not tolarated.Any dog showing signs of this is culled.There are ussually several people in the "ring" during a fight,so in order to stop the dogs from biting them it's common to have the right to cull any animal that bites a  human.
 The human aggression we see today in these "dogs" is a result of bad breeding and the desire of some to make a guard dog from a breed that doesnt make a very good watch dog.

I'm sure some of you will find some fault in this post,thats your right,but don't start telling me "putbull"this and "pitbull"that because then I'll ask how many have you owned.

people who blame a "breed "  for what some owners have allowed there dogs to do are stupid,  all stupid people should be culled....

Be careful.  Some people on these boards consider the inability of a writer to correctly use capitalization and punctuation "stupid".

That is pure BS.   The fools who have to buy a Pit Bull to make up for something lacking in themselves always say that.  

Is it really the owners?   Would it be safe to say pit bull owners are tiny donut morons who are trying to prove something by having a "bad-ass dog"?  Smarter people would realize the large number of times this happens really isn't a coincidence.

I bet it wasn't changed.

"She always walked, jogged. She just walked around you know its peaceful quiet. We didn't know they had pit bulls over there," said family friend Georgeann Hammond.

Investigators located the dogs, which are American bulldogs, believed to have attacked the victims at an area residence, where they were seized by animal control officers, state police said.

It'd be my guess that you quit reading as soon as you saw the words pit bull and ran to post your find and indignation over the breed on this bbs.

All dogs have the ability to kill.  One cannot look at an individual dog, recognize its breed, and then state whether or not it is going to attack.

An example of the lack of breed predictability is the October 2000 death of a 6-week-old baby, which was killed by her family's Pomeranian dog. The average weight of a Pomeranian is about 4 pounds, and they are not thought of as a dangerous breed. Note, however, that they were bred to be watchdogs! The baby's uncle left the infant and the dog on a bed while the uncle prepared her bottle in the kitchen. Upon his return, the dog was mauling the baby, who died shortly afterwards.

Think sensationalism, like 50 years ago when a white man raping a black woman would be unreported, but a black man raping a white woman would be blasted across the front page.

Edit: Whoops!  Hawt, but whoops

You’re only defending them because Pit Bulls are atheists.

Pitbulls are and always will be loose cannons

[eskimo2]

Pit Bulls are like angry three year olds with handguns; lethal yet too stupid to have the ability to kill.

Other breeds are more like three year olds with hammers; they can hurt someone but will most likely be stopped before they kill.

Wild squirrels can bite but are really unlikely to kill or maim anyone.  So, we put up with them and let them go about their business even in human populated areas.  Bears also can bite but are somewhat likely to kill or main.    It’s only smart to keep them out of human populated areas.  Why is this concept so hard for a few people?

You couldn't be more wrong. There is no such thing as a bad dog, only bad (or lazy) owners.
