The OP mentions none of those things.

Correct- I applaud your reading comprehension. OP is talking about a dog in her neighborhood that barks and has not lunged at anyone or been aggressive. It says it right in the OP.

What?

She specifically says the dog barks and lunges at everyone who walks by the front yard.

Dog people are something else.

Here's what OP said:

But recently, the neighbors have begun keeping the pit bull in their front yard, on a leash that’s about 20 to 25 feet, long but not long enough to reach the sidewalk. The pit bull barks aggressively at children passing by and is scary to them. It is also scary to adults.

It makes no mention of a lunge. And barking and lunging together are very different than just barking.

Why don’t you (and OP’s neighbors and all other pitbull owners/apologists) stop terrorizing your neighbors? NO ONE likes your dog. Your dog is a monster. And you’re an idiot.

I have a beagle - the most docile dog you can imagine - that barks like a madman at anything walking by the house. I wouldn’t say that barking and “looking scary” is indicative of aggression.

+1 Barking at people walking by is what dogs do. My 25lb Boston Terrier barks like he wants to rip your head off as you walk past our house.

OP just wants the pit bull pile on. I have no dog in the fight but it's obvious she wants the pile on.

Oh sweet summer child. A barking dog is terrorizing? How on earth do you make it through life?

It's a Pit Mommy thing. I've never met a Golden or Bernese or whatever owner who would be anything other than utterly ashamed by this kind of behavior. One of the Pit talking points is to make it an "ALL dogs!" thing. Don't fall for it. Also, people are entitled to be more scared by a dog that can maul you to death than a...annoying AF Chihuahua.

I’d give it treats every time i went by so that it associates me with good things. That way if it gets loose and eats someone’s faces, it’s less likely to be yours

Yeah, no.

They have no control.

Most pit bulls never rip anyone's face off. And 70% have never and will never harm a single human.

Actually you should look in the mirror. If "no one" liked pit bulls than no one would own one, right?" which is obviously incorrect! So did you find the idiot? hint...it isn't the pit bull owner

Pit bull owners are aggressive and selfish people, and I don't consider them worthy of my consideration.

Normal people who are not completely insane do not like pit bulls

I genuinely hate pit bull owners at this point. It’s not much different than walking around with a live grenade IMO. If pit bulls ONLY posed a danger to their owners then it would be different. But it’s outrageous that whenever I take a walk through my neighborhood, or let my kids play in the yard, or take my dog to the dog park, I have to be on my guard in case their “friendly” savage animal decides today is the day it’s going to snap.

I assume most pit bull owners were unable to get a real dog (one for which you have to wait on a list and then pay a not insignificant chunk of money for) and that’s why they defend their hideously ugly, volatile, and dangerous dogs so vehemently. So they can pretend this is the dog they chose and not the one they got stuck with.

Right back at ya! Some pit owners are bad but most of us are good people.

Don't worry we disregard you too, doll

You should admit you are elitist and classist. A pure bred dog does require you to pay $$$. I'm talking about the four breeds that make up pit bull.

As for rescues why don't you think people choose them? And why don't you consider them dogs? They aren't cats or cows for goodness sake.

We are all entitled to our opinion regarding what we like and your opinion is not worth more or less than mine. But you don't have the right to ban my dog because you don't like him

The pit bull barks aggressively at children passing by and is scary to them. It is also scary to adults. Personally, I hate the damn dog. Is there anything that can be done? Get the county involved?

OP, y'all going to have to walk on the other side of the street. Better yet, do your poor neighbor a favor and walk the other way. You sound nuts.
