Pitbulls...

[yocass]

ACTUALLY poodles had the most bites on humans. I doubt poodles ever kill a human, but those fuckers are mean. Pitbulls are protective, if you cant control one around new people, then dont get one. Its not "in their blood" to be agressive, its in their blood to be powerful and able. Pitbulls dont bite the most, but I wouldnt doubt if they had the most kills, just because if they do attack theres a very good chance that they will kill.

Pitbulls... ok well one of my friends is breeding his pitbulls, she is gonna have the babies in a month. he said he wont give me a bad price but my parents are kinda worried about it. My dad said that pitbulls are crazy and they can snap on people real quick, ive heard this too but i was wondering is there a way to avoid having a crazy pit? Ive heard if you just raise it as a calm dog it would be ok but my dad told me otherwise cause "they got something in there blood". Im trying to find out more, they can Rating: 5

small dogs have way more bites than pitbulls, but when a pit atacks, its commited. it could be deaths or serious injury, but I have owned large dogs all of my life and guard dogs for the past eight years and the only two dog bites I have suffered were from strange small dogs. 1 was a beagle, the other a caren terrier. I had to get stitches and that was all, the beagle then got mauled by one of my dogs, my argentine dogo (which recently died ) and blah blah. it was a mess. they sued me even though I did nothing to sue them even though I had an over 2000 dollar hospitle bill, then I had to pay a lawer, but it was ruled my dog was being "correctly protective" so I say fuck them little dogs

They can be friendlier under the right circumstances, but still...they can be E-VilE.

i read spaniels and beagles have always been on top of the list for bites...i can see pit bulls being #1 for kills but am sure the total count can be done with your fingers.

i have been around several (never owned one tho) and all were/are among the most chill dogs i've had the pleasure to meet! i believe it's mostly environment, and part genes as to what makes pits killers...all dogs bite. but the pits i've known were all very intelligent, loyal/protective and fun! some home owners' policies won't cover if there's one in the home tho...something to check into.

Before you write Pits off you might look into how many of those that hurt ppl were trained to fight, or were abused.-usdi Agaluga

And my vet will tell you, the breed he sees most for destruction due to biting
is the West Highland terrier. Intelligent dogs need intelligent owners, consistant
training and something to occupy their minds. Pitbulls are fabulous dogs but
definately not for an inexperienced dog owner. Also go to a decent breeder and
don't give a penny to those disgusting backyard bastards only interested in
exploiting their bitches, litter after litter, for a few quid.

Why not go to an animal shelter and spend time with a few dogs, go back
for a few days in a row, don't rush into anything. You'll know when you've
found the right dog. Just remember that wotever you chose will have to be a
suitable animal for the lifestyle you have now - so don't go getting something
that requires a shitload of exercise, if you can't be arsed to walk to the
corner shop and back, know wot I mean?

That said, the very best of luck xx

animals are innocent and reflect the owner.

mean,cruel owner=ill tempered dog(of any breed)

if a dog kills a person it is the owner who should be put down,not the animal.

My old neighbor had a pitbull. The first time I ever saw it she came running down the street towards me as I was getting out of the car. I jumped back in and was trapped for 10-15 minutes before she decided to leave. Turns out she just wanted to play. Sasha was one of the friendliest dogs I ever knew.

The temperment of any dog has much more to do with its owner than its breed. The problem is that most, but not all, people who get pitbulls get them because they want a bad ass dog. Even if they're not raised to fight they're still raised to be mean bad asses.

It's like that old saying "Guns don't kill people, people kill people" Well, "Pitbulls don't kill people, Assholes raise pitbulls to kill people"
