Do black people own more pits? Or hispanics? I don't get the racist thing. I'm white. Most people I know with pits or half-pits are white.
They're very heavy in personality. I assumed they were popular among most people. A lot of my people live in the mountains; like, straight up hills-have-eyes types. And they love these dogs. Like the shittiest white folk you can find.
Even if dogs were the same as people, there's like no differences between races and under the right circumstances you can't tell at all. For dog breeds, there are very clear differences
shut the fuck up you piece of shit, brown people have a specific kind of hate boner for dogs, and I assure you most the people talking shit about dogs are PoCs.
they're jealous cus us awesome YTs treat our pets better than we treat other humans.
get over it, you're worth nothing to me, my dog on the other hand is my sentinel, he will tear the throat out of any cocksucker that comes to my door looking to get squirrely.
I lived with my brother shortly, and my cat and his pug-bull got along very well, but it was raised with the cat, and knew it as part of the family.
Like most dogs, they WILL kill cats unless you monitor their early interactions with the cat and ensure that they know the cat is family and not food. Dogs are great at telling the difference if they are taught the difference (with cats and most other animals), but will assume anything non-human is food.
Note: this is a lesson most dogs will have to learn both inside and out. A dog who understands that a cat is 'friend' inside the house, will attack said cat outside, as these scents are common, and dogs are not good at differentiating between friend and foe until other animals are close up. Human visual acuity tricks people into the assumption that most animals tell each other apart from a distance.
A dog doesn't know the difference. If a kid hopped over a fence that said "DANGER THERE ARE LAND MINES HERE" and got blown up, nobody would be blaming the land mines.
It's likely the dogs were never properly trained and just used for 'security'. But it wasn't a burglar they got, it was a 7-year old that snuck into the wrong yard. This is why booby-trapping your house is illegal. And why big, untrained, dogs are not good security.
Top comment in the thread. Hits the nail on the head.
If you own a break stick, and spend considerable effort training your pit bull, and watch them intently whenever they're around children or small animals, they're perfectly harmless. There's no such thing as a bad dog, only bad owners.
A Pit won't attack people without training. They might get over-excited and hurt a toddler through play, but it won't kill anyone without training.
Someone brought that dog up wrong. There's not breed still living (lots of war breed that got put down 100 years back, but not alive) that attacks humans without encouragement.
Even one that gets carried away will just injure a kid.
This a master not owning up to some off-the-books guard dog training, or even fight training. This is not something any breed of dog does without being taught to.
Again, dogs are not a natural animal. They are entirely the creation of humans. And the old breed meant to kill other humans all got put down in the age of gun warfare. Pits may be fighting dogs, but they didn't fight humans.
Jesus Christ, you're a fucking moron. Any breed of dog will attack people, but pits are more likely due to their genetic heritage, being bred for dogfighting.
No, they will often attack children when they think they can get away with it. In the 1990s there was a big problem with wolf hybrids trying to eat their owner's kids when the weren't looking. Then in India they had a spate of wolves killing kids. Predatory instinct incudes being able to judge who is young or weak and going for them rather than strong, healthy adults. Even wolf experts are never going to see this behaviour because none of them are kids, it only becomes apparent when you have wolves living along side normal families.
I've been around dogs my whole life but have yet to come across one that would bite someone for entering its territory. Bark it's head off, sure but not bite unless it was trained to do so.
The premise here is that pit bulls, as a breed, need to be trained not to bite. If that's the case then they are too dangerous to have as pets and to be arou d the general public
Rottweilers, Shepards, Dobermans, Mastiffs, Goldens pretty much all the medium and large breeds need to be taught boundaries by either their parents or their owners to not bite or chase people and kids. That's how dogs communicate their displeasure and hierarchy.
I think most of the problems with pitbulls are that owners that want that kind of dog aren't going to treat them in a way that won't make them agressive, combined with the fact that this type of breed has a lot of power compared to other breeds.
on a sidenote, how fucking retarded does your kid have to be to run into a fenced area with two scary looking dogs? fucker probably poked at them with sticks as well
On a serious note this had to be horrifying. The poor kid probably really suffered. When I was 8 or 9 my friend had an aggressive dog and we were playing outside. I ran past the area where the dog was chained up, he leaped towards me and bit me and wouldnt let go on my leg. It hurt sooo bad and I lost a chunk of skin getting away. He was chained up sp he couldnt go after me but being mauled to death would be torture.
Their jaws are literally magical defining aspects of the entire breed.
A hahaha haha.
You bought the fake news hook like and sinker
I knew a guy who owned a pitbull. He'd trained it well and it seemed pretty docile, I petted it without fear or problems. But I do distinctly remember watching him in the nearby park holding a short log that his pitbull had bitten down on and swinging him around and around at speed while the dog hung on with apparently zero effort. Those fuckers have got incredible jaw strength.
My brother owns a half-pit, half pug, but +1 for the title alone.
I've owned many dogs. My folk are dog people. And the fault is usually with the owner. Even a mean dog wants the approval of an owner it respects, and will be bent to your will. Pits are energetic and aggressive, but the same can be said of German Shepherds, and you don't hear about them. Because people who want to own dogs-as-weapons no longer pursue that breed.
Dogs are a creature of man's own making, a semi-retarded wolf with near absolute loyalty. If it's fucked, it's because the humans who raised it were fucked. It doesn't know better than to serve it's master.
Why are pit bulls not commonly used as guard dogs or police dogs? WHy are German shephards huskies, and labs more reliable to attack people on command?
Because German Shephards, Huskies and Labs will stop the attack on command.
Damn. That's more savage than a pit-bull shaking a baby.

No, they'll call you racist for disliking pit bulls because they'll assume you'd use the same arguments for blacks or hispanics committing crimes.

It's also illegal to own landmines to stop this from happening, so unless you are for banning pits/dogs in general this is a strange argument.
