I have two pits, an English Bulldog, and some kind of little terrier mix. 

 

Those pits are the most loving cuddling dogs I have ever owned. One we've had since she was a puppy. The other my wife rescued from the side of the road. We live in the country and of course, we run into dumped animals all the time. He's probably around 2 yrs old and the previous owner had his ears clipped prob trying to make him look mean. This dog is ANYTHING but mean. It's funny how you mention yours being on the side of annoying. He is so starved for attention and is on top of us 100% of the time. We named him Bear because he is just a huge teddy bear. 

 

The stereotypes are ridiculous and driven by ***** owners that do horrible things with dogs. You know what dog is most likely to bite you? Grandmas little chihuahua, poodle, etc... 

 

If you want to talk stats German Shepherd's rank right up there with pits in dog bites. Bet people have never called them slaughter dogs. 

Well said.  Had a mutt i was pretty sure a shepherd and chow mix. Stubborn, mean, would never acclimate.  It was such a bad combo

Scurrilous comments have dogged  the young man ever since his career here began. 🤔

This is true. We had a 90-lb female GSD...and frankly the additional insurance $ was ridiculous.

 

Bottom line, as w any dog: she was extremely well-trained (GSDs are incredibly smart).

 

On command, she could bite out your carotid...but she would much rather play with your kids, gently.

 

All comes down to the owner.

Dobermans had a similar reputation back when I was in high school, ( late 1970s) if the owner treats and trains either breed to be hostile they will be hostile, it is also true that if the owner treats and train’s either breed to be a pet vs a weapon, both will be very much less likely to be hostile,  it’s the owners that create the problems, I’ve seen it go both ways, just look at us humans, the ones of us brought up in less than ideal environments tend to be more hostile, low and behold, those of us brought up to think before acting, tend to be far better socialized, is what it is, 

110% correct

 

Its the trainer/owner not the breed

Really though... what do the last 2 pages have to do with Keon or a boot?

In the 13-year period of 2005 to 2017, canines killed 433 Americans. Pit bulls contributed to 66% (284) of these deaths. Within this period, deaths attributed to pit bulls rose from 58% (2005 to 2010) to 71% (2011 to 2017), a 22% rise.

 

First off, you should always give your source for stats if your trying to prove a point. 

 

Second, now show us dog bite stats on German Sheppard's, Rottweilers, and little dogs such chihuahuas

Whether your stats are accurate or not is a question given you posted no sourcing and no context.  But the important issue is the context...lets assume the stats are correct, what does the data accutually state?

 

Pitbulls are not close to the most aggressive dog breed, the bite frequency pails in comparison to many other breeds.  But you wouldn't know that by the skewed data you just shared.  

 

Pitbulls are like the Great White Sharks - Great Whites are not really the dangerous sharks people think they are...but movies, lore, and damage capability make people think they are the most dangerous things swimming in the oceans, and they are not close to being that either. let alone the most dangerous shark.  

 

Yes - a Pitbull can do a lot more damage with a bite than say a smaller breed, but that does not make them the aggressive animal people think they are.

 

Where in your "stats" just it show how many of those attacks resulted from situations where the owner raised the animal to be aggressive vs the animal acting uncharacteristically and going rogue?  I assure you that most of the bad incidents involving pit bulls are a result of how they are raised and handled and more the fault of the owner than the dog.  

So sorry - your stats are ridiculous, they do not remotely illustrate the natural temperment of these animals, and come from a place of ignorance about the breed.  And that is assuming they are even correct, which I don't care if they are or not, they are still lacking context to have any proper meeaning to define an entire breed of animal.

I'm not a fan of pitbulls and I've never owned one, but I did a lot of research on dogs before buying my GSD and my Rottweiler.

 

Even if the stats he presented are accurate, they can still be misleading.  Very few of reported pitbull attacks are from pitbulls and even fewer are from family pets.  People often report dog attacks by any scary looking breed as having been pitbull attacks when very few are.  Furthermore, virtually zero fatal dog attacks are from family pets who are socialized to be around people.  Almost without exception, fatal dog attacks are by dogs who live on a property but who do not regularly interact with the people who own him.

Siamese cats can kill a pitbull. Any day of the week.

Keon Inaboot is better than Fendi Onabun.

People misbreed pits all the time too.  They assume it's a mix that might look like a pit, like my old neighbors dog, and automatically call it a pit.

My neighbors dog is a blue healer/rotty mix.  It looks like a pit but it's not but people call her a pit all the time.
