[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, we have similar by our place, but pitbulls are banned where we live, so I don’t worry as much. Of course there can always be dogs who might be aggressive- so far no thankfully- but at least I don’t have to worry about a dog being killed by a Pitbull. A friends cat was killed by her pit bull and sorry, that’s all I need to know about that breed. They are not safe. [/quote]

There are no "safe" dogs. All dogs can bite.[/quote]

Of course, but some dogs are disproportionately associated with lethal attacks. The dogs in our area tend to be smaller dogs or friendly breeds. I don’t worry about them killing a small child or another dog [/quote]

Again with the nonsense. You say "disproportionately", but you don't have a stat to back this claim. You don't have the total number of dogs by breed vs. the total number of bites by breed. Unless, of course, you do. I've been looking for this stat for a very long time now, and haven't found it, so if you've got it, by all means, links would be lovely.

Also? You say "the dogs in our area tend to be smaller or friendly breeds" but the other threads are all ranting "every dog is a pit mix".  Which is it?

And you should worry about a chihuahua biting your kid. And a small dog can kill. There's no such thing as a "friendly breed" that never bites.

Ignorance is the biggest problem[/quote]

There are stats that say 30 percent of legal dog attacks are from pits.

And if you’re claiming that a chihuahua bite is the same as a pit bite you are being purposely obtuse.

There are a number of people on this thread. The dogs where I live tend to be smaller and/or friendly breeds. [/quote]
