So glad the UK outlawed these bully xl things. Not a day goes by it doesn’t maul one child or another
Fuckin dog racist.
Absolutely assinine that people can’t have squirrels or raccoons as pets, but dogs bred for centuries to brutally murder eachother in pit matches are free game.
There are tons of people who own raccoons and squirrels. There was literally a president that had a pet racoon. And to assume a dog is inherently evil for being abused for centuries is wrong. Bull terriers were breed for pit fights but they’re rarely associated with that kind if violence. Borzoi’s were breed for hunting wolves yet we never hear about them being violent.
In most states, it’s illegal to house a raccoon or a squirrel without costly extensive licensure.
And just look up the stats.
Pitbulls have the reputation because pitbulls are the ones killing other dogs and sending people to the hospital every day.
If you wanna clench your eyes shut and be dumb, have at.
And to assume a dog is inherently
evildangerous.inherently dangerous. It’s not the dogs’ fault, but that doesn’t change what must be done.
That’s simply not an accurate history. ✅
Cute, but should be put down as all others of this race
Can we put down the bad humans too then? Dogs aren’t inherently bad or good, it’s how they are treated and the resources they have access to, strangely much like us humans?! Weird!
Except this breed was created by us specifically for its violence. It’s in their genes. As far as I know there was no artificial breeding for pure violent humans. We created this abomination, we should put and end to it
We created all dog breeds. Violence is not something found in DNA, but keep trying that angle. You are just scared of them, and fair enough, but let’s not pretend the dogs only purpose in life is to bite people. Most dog breeds do not serve their purpose any longer and we buy them because we like them. Many dogs are violent and untrained. If pit bulls did not exist, you would ha e another breed in its place you are complaining about because people are terrible and irresponsible. Don’t blame the dog, blame the owner. My friend hates cocker spaniels because one bit her face when she was an infant and the memory has never left her. Should we ban that breed too?
Tell me when a cocker reach this kind of mortality then I will tell you to ban them too
Don’t create excuses. Not all dogs are the same, this dog is a murder machine and should be put down. It’s not their fault, but this doesn’t change the fact that they were bred to maximum damage
My thoughts are just based in numbers, yours, not so much
I am saying that if pit bulls did not exist, another breed would fill that pie chart because PEOPLE are terrible and irresponsible. Anything in the wrong hands can be a problem. It’s why most countries try to ban assault rifles from private use because they don’t solve any problems and are very dangerous in the wrong hands, but ultimately it is the hands that cause the issue, not the “thing”.
Your are just ignoring the fact that pitbulls are just more efficient in killing than any other race. Even if they got replaced, it would result in less deaths because not a single breed compares to them in terms of killing.
So yes, pitbulls are assault rifles, German Shepards are 38 revolvers and your friends Cocker are butter knifes. Changing one to another is safer to everyone
Sure, still doesn’t solve the problem though, does it?
Yeah no, Pit bulls should be banned.
Last year the son of a good friend, with only 5 years, was attacked and murdered by the grandfather dog that knew him his entire life, he was playing with his sister and the dog… can you guess the breed? Yep, thats right. Fuck those dogs
I’ll acknowledge that this particular breed may be responsible for the most aggressive dog attacks, but I’d also assume there’s a correlation between aggression in dogs and the environment they’re brought up in.
It’s the nature vs nurture debate but for K9s. Both are probably legitimate factors. But I’d argue, give a pit bull a loving home and good training - something all dogs deserve - and they’ll never hurt a soul.
Problem is, idiots with no respect for animals tend to seek out “tough” dog breeds and torture them until they’re ready too attack anyone and everyone. Fuck people. People=Shit.
Every single pitbull I’ve met has been nothing but loving and kind. I understand the context about people who don’t like them as they’ve probably seen things in the media about how pitbulls act, or something in a similar nature. I would believe that the media is just trying to get you scared, as I remember one time with a different story about a city I live nearby to, and how I said I was scared to go into the city due to the gun violence, when one of the people who live in the city said that they live in the hood, and have no trouble getting to where they need to go, which personally made me feel a lot better. That’s what I currently believe this situation is like. I do understand that this may not change some opinions with some people, just think about it, please.
You’re dismissing the people who have made their opinion from the overwhelming scientific data on this subject.
I consider that “media”
It’s best not to use alternative definitions in a discussion without noting it. You’ll only cause confusion.
They look so happy and fuzzy and cuddly

Statistics by definition is presenting empirical data and that’s what most people think of when they hear statistics. Most scientists studying statistics actually spend much more of their time developing and studying methods of data collection rather than crunching numbers. The reason for this is you cannot have meaning statistics if the data set is not accurate. And I love you all and your experiences matter but they bear no scientific weight.
4 out of 5 dentists agree that every time you see a static it’s complete and total bullshit. Flawed data collection leads to flawed results which leads to flawed conclusions. But people sure do get excited when numbers validate their biases.
Very cute dogs
In 2009, the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia released a five-year review of dog-bite injuries. The review states that 51 percent of attacks were made by pit bulls.

In 2009, another study was published by the American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology. The study ran for 15 years and it has concluded that pit bulls, German Shepherds, and Rottweilers are among the most common breeds that cause fatal dog attacks in Kentucky State.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19696575/
In 2011, the Annals of Surgery published a study, which concluded that Pitbull attacks lead to more expensive hospital bills, higher risk of death, and higher morbidity rates compared to other breeds of dogs.
I just want to say op, you have two great looking pups! I can guarantee Teddy is the best cuddler.
They really are fucking adorable. 10/10 would give them snuggles and scratches.
Then again, I also like 100% of animals, so 🤷♀️
Those aren’t actually OPs dogs. This is a bait.
Your right. One of them is my friends. I never claimed both were mine.

I like pitbulls and don’t know if this is bait (perhaps you didn’t realize the obvious response you’d get?) but this post should be removed either way.
Worst comment section I’ve ever seen in this community
