Pitbulls

Wait where'd the op go?

But they have the capacity to attack when most other breeds will not.


Such a broad statement. That just proves how much of a moron you are if you believe that.

Look up the most biting dogs....

Dachshund
Chihuahua
Beagle

Are the top three, but pit bulls are the most likely to attack, right?

Idk about you but my pit bulls never attacked anything how about yours?

Never, in fact my pit bull is a service dog. There are thousands of pit bull service dogs. This thread just shows the ignorance of people.

Thank my dog for helping diagnose cancer in hospitals before you label it a killer.

You are welcome for its service haters....

Those dogs might be more likely to bite, but when a pitbull attacks, it has been bred to jaw lock and often it ends up killing its victim based on its strength. I seriously doubt many small dogs can kill despite their nipping nature. Pitbulls have viscious instincts and they heads are very muscular and their jaws very strong.

Mine doesn't do that he kind of just eats socks haha, but in all seriousness that's awesome

Their jaws do not lock, that is another myth. Keep showing how UN-educated you fools are. I am loving this now.

where did the op go ?

I went to the store, I have a life.
:)

I own a 7yo Pit and an almost 1yo Pit.. the puppy is my 5yo daughters best friend... he goes where she goes.. they snuggle together constantly.. hes very sweet and a goofball who likes to open doors by the handles.. the older one shes just as sweet but you act like your hurting one of us and she gets very upset...

in the 1800s Pits were called Nanny dogs because they are so good and protective over children.. in fact Hellen Keller owned at least one Pit to watch over her also

If you get them as pups and raise them how normal pups are supposed to be raised imo they are one of the best breeds..

So sad they have such a stigma...

Dont know if this will work but heres our little guy when he was 3months old..

Many dogs can diagnose cancer and other illnesses. Not just pitbulls. And you obviously have not looked into the genetic characteristics of terriers in general. Pitbulls being more dangerous than other terriers based on their size and strength. There is a genetic factor. No one is saying people should kill their pitbulls. Yes, they can be sweet, smart, loyal and very attentive dogs.

But they are one of many breeds that can be unpredictable. Many people whose pitbull killed or maimed another person or animal never had any indication that the pitbull would behave that way.

I would love to see an honest pitbull owner come on here and admit that the breed is dangerous and should be watched cautiously and not put in situations that might post as dangerous. So far, people who love pitbulls seem to do so blindly. That is a big mistake.

Im sitting back, watching the "i love my wild beast" rednecks on here...

how the rest of the world is wrong, but how the dumb rednecks are right...

lol


Im just laughing at how dumb the rednecks are.

You wont find that because any HONEST pit bull owner is responsible and socializes and trains their dog.

Yeah, so check the statistics which dogs have the best temperment, which one bite the most.

The breed id not at fault, its the assholes who want one as a status symbol, like Michael Vick. Don't blame the breed because of dumb ass people.

I have a pit bull who is non aggressive until someone comes on my property. He has bitten four people, but he is smart enough not to break the ski . He only leaves a bruise.

I didn't teach him that, he does it on his own.

On the other hand, I do trust him with my kids. But if friends of my kids come over I lock him up.

the same dumb rednecks that "love their pitbulls" also love their M16s, and AK47s, and love their booze, and their old beat up pickup trucks too.

lol

Actually, you are incorrect. Their jaws do lock in the sense that they are able to bite and not stop biting even when they are being beaten or shot with bullets. They do not lock in the sense of an actual jaw locking mechanism as if there jaw is frozen. They do however have the tendency to latch on and not stop even when being assaulted themselves.

Completely agreed! Any responsible dog owner of ANY breed should properly train and socialize their dog.

How many have you owned asshole?

You really think if my dog was UN-predictable they would allow it to be a service dog inside a hospital and work around kids? Adults are not the only ones that get cancer?

Sure, some people can't handle the responsibility of training and socializing this breed. But you can say the same about people owning guns, some people cant handle that responsibility. Its not for everyone. But that doesn't mean the breed should be banned. This breed is also the most decorated military dog in USA history.

Research pit bull service dogs before claiming such insanity.

Finally, an honest/intelligent pitbull owner. And because of your common sense, you and your dog will probably have a lot less stress. Let's hope that he continues to be friendly to your kids. I know many live there entire lives being good dogs. The owners just have to be smart about it.

Uh so liking a certain breed of dog, liking guns and pickups make us red necks, I think you are a bigot....

sure, why wouldnt a second rate country like the USA have second rate policies centered around "I love my pitbull"

lol

The USA also allows people to own artillery too.

We put ours in the basement when certain people come over like ones who act all scared like that just freaks them out so we put them up before then but its only few people.. I completly agree when other children come over who arent family they go downstairs too..

You obviously dont know what a dog goes through to be able to be a service dog and be around kids like this. The dog is tested in so many ways, they pull at its face, they do all sorts of messed up things to see its temperament. They don't just say, oh wow he can smell cancer, lets put him around kids!


A bunch of UN-educated morons.

Actually, considering I have experience working in pet therapy in healthcare settings, I have to say that you are either lying or the company you are working for is in some part of the country where insurance is not a problem for this breed working in a service field, which I find astonishing.

I am not saying this breed should be banned altogether. I just don't think they should be allowed in populated areas, like big cities.

I have never heard of a pet therapy or service organization that allowed pitbulls as part of their program considering the liability. But I could be wrong. Hard to believe though.

Now, if you rent an apartment in a city, most apartments will not allow you to have pitbulls or pitbull mixes because of insurance problems.

so now everybody else in the world is bigot... nice.
lol

Along with my two Pits I temporarily have my in laws Miniature Doberman.. now THAT dog is a little fucker.. he has to stay separate from the two big dogs cuz hes always nipping at them and it pisses my big dogs off... hes sweet and snuggly but is def a one dog house kinda dog...

Okay, so your pitbull was put through a long line of tests to make it able to qualify as a service dog. So therefore your pitbull is likely a very safe dog. That is certainly very plausible and I won't disagree.

No one is saying all pitbulls are dangerous. Just that most are based on genetics. If your dog was able to go through many tests to be accepted into a program, then your dog is likely very safe. And much more than most pitbulls. Just like humans, dogs have personalities and some humans are much more docile than others.

No one here is saying all pitbulls are bad. But people need to take into consideration that pitbulls in general cause the most problems with attacks among all breeds of dogs and the problem is getting worse because many people who own pitbulls are generally people who are poor, who do not fix their dogs because they are poor, and the breed is flourishing due to that fact.

You can call us morons for mentioning all these things. But you need to use some common sense too. You might have a unique pitbull by its demeanor. That is a possibility.

Even so, I still wouldn't trust it too much.

what makes you a redneck, is your obliviousness to the facts that these things put people in danger, and the fact that the personality of a person like that is also very dangerous towards other people to.
