[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow most of you people are absolutely ridiculous. In the 80s the "aggressive" breed was the German Shepherd to the point my pediatrician told my parents to get rid of ours when I was born, which they thankfully did not. Then it was the Doberman, then it was the Rottweiler, now we have the Pitbull. Any individual dog can be aggressive. Many stories that make the news will say Pitbull or Pitbull type dog with no verification of what the dog actually is. It all comes down to the owners and how dogs are trained/treated. That being said, I do believe there are studies that regularly chaining a dog in a yard can cause behavior issues, but that has nothing to do with the breed. Get over yourselves and your closed minded view of a breed with which you clearly have zero experience.[/quote] Get over yourself fool.
