[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Remind me again why pitts are still legal pets?  They need to be allowed to die out as a breed.  Mass sterilization.  I mean seriously. [/quote]

Agree. And I am a dog fanatic, but not for pitbulls, dobermans, or rottweillers.

It's actually because I'm a dog fanatic that I hate Pits. They were literally bred to take down other animals in bloodsport, if they're not a threat to me (dubious) they go at my sweet dogs more than any others like they want to eat them for breakfast (I have 70 plus lb dogs too...)[/quote]

The NYT didn't specify the breed of the dog.  They did say that the neighbors thought the dogs aggressive prior to the attack.    Apparently the Postal Service tracks dog attacks by state and Florida is in the top 10 (for whatever reason),

Mixed breed, medium sized, "mean" and known aggressive enough to the point they mauled another dog and eventually a person to death? They're beating around the bush here to not enrage the Pit lobby. I worked in shelters for years and Ive seen the dog mauling stats. I'd bet my 401k these are some twisted backyard Pit bully mixes.[/quote]

If you look at the pictures posted of the dogs, they’re clearly Pitts[/quote]
There are so many maulings by pit bulls that never make the news. The breed is a menace; one cannot reasonably expect that a dog bred for aggression and tenacity even when in pain is going to be a good family dog any more than one can expect a herding dog not to herd.[/quote]
