[quote=Anonymous][quote]The central thing is that people should always be careful around dogs of any kind. Any dog can suddenly attack if provoked in a certain way. I own a pitbull mix. She is adorable and loving but I have no doubt that she would make short work of anyone if she were to be provoked. But no one has provoked her and I don't let kids play around her but I wouldn't let kids play around a Golden Retriever either.

If your friend brings over the pitbull, it shouldn't be allowed to run free anywhere in the neighborhood but then no dog should be allowed to do that. [/quote]

While I agree that kids should never play unsupervised around any dog and that no one should let their dogs run around a neighborhood unsupervised, this does not mean that the potential harm and threat from a pit bull and a Golden Retriever is equal. This is the core crux of the faulty logic problem with some dog owners. If a Golden is provoked and bites it is a much different story than if a pit bull is provoked and bites. One may require a few stitches and the other can be lethal or at a minimum cause permanent disfigurement. [/quote]
